Menu

The menu of Ashmolean Rooftop from Oxford comprises about 104 different dishes and drinks. On average you pay about £15 for a dish / drink.

The Roof Top Restaurant offers a beautiful setting with views over the city, but the service may leave something to be desired. Despite a lovely location and delicious food, the service can be slow and lacking attention to detail. Some diners experienced long wait times and lackluster service quality, while others found the staff attentive and engaging. With a mixed bag of reviews, customers seemed to appreciate the location and ambiance of the restaurant, but improvements could be made to enhance the overall dining experience. Overall, a decent choice for a casual lunch with good potential for a great experience.

This restaurant is fantastic. It offers stunning views and top-notch service. While there are limited gluten-free options available, the food is delicious and the desserts are simply wonderful.

A pleasant space, convenient, fast and efficient service. But the food isn't very good. It reads well in the menu but wasn't cooked well. Tough lamb, doughy pineapple cake. Food for 2 was £76, this didn't include any drinks.

Food overpriced and poor. Very noisy, couldn’t hear to make conversation. Booked for outside seating but no table service outside. Will not return

These days there are quite a few decent restaurants in Oxford. Try them rather than this one.
