Spelt - Bampton

Trying to think of a time I ate out and had nicer food. We had hake and blade of beef. Both were amazing examples of what can be done with local produce. Even the new potatoes were cooked to perfection. Michelin starred grub at half the price. Meal type: Dinner Price per person: £20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Fabulous Sunday lunch. We visited as a birthday meal, and wanted to try out the lunch. It was one of the best Sunday lunches we've had when eating out. The meal was cooked to perfection, with the meat delicious and roast potatoes so tasty. It was busy, so you really should book as it's a relatively small restaurant, but that added to the atmosphere. Staff were attentive and polite. Spelt also now serve beers from local nano-brewery, Cottage Beer Project, and the Doodle Pale was a great match. They have a good range of other drink types too.

A really lovely evening at Spelt. The food was delicious and the service friendly. It is relaxed, but the quality of the restaurant is very good. Plenty of vegetarian options. Well cooked, tasty fish dishes. Dogs welcome. Although the restaurant is small, it is divided into 3 rooms, so we didn’t feel cramped. The parking is either in the high street, or a very close public car park. A good find in a pretty town. Vegetarian options: Delicious meatless balls!

Genuinely fantastic place, great service, amazing food. Very much worth a visit! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
