Treadwell

The cooking

The kitchen takes British dishes and gives them unconventional twists, with an emphasis on ingredients from the farms and producers around Oxfordshire. On Sundays the menu turns to roasts with all the trimmings, which makes it a useful option in a city centre where good Sunday lunches can be hard to find without a drive. The restaurant opened alongside the hotel in 2024, in the former Boswells department store building, one of the city's best-known shopping landmarks.

All-day dining

Because it is a hotel restaurant, Treadwell runs from breakfast to dinner. That flexibility means it works for an early meeting, a long lunch between colleges and museums, or a pre-theatre dinner. The restaurant also hosts occasional special events such as literary-themed dinners. Breakfast is open to non-residents too.

Before or after

You are right in the centre: Broad Street, the Sheldonian and Blackwell's are a minute's walk away, and the hotel's rooftop bar is upstairs if you want a drink with a view of the spires afterwards (check its opening days). Tables can be booked online through the hotel website. Sunday roasts and weekend evenings are the busiest times.
