    This is a nice comfortable venue, good food friendly service and for Oxford reasonable value. The only disappointment was the burger, not great meat, some grissly bits in there. The venison special was delicious as was the fish stew.

    Delicious food, good welcoming service, quite chilly temperature as they struggled to keep the restaurant warm on this cold day.

    We had a lovely NYE meal at Branca, the slow roast pork belly was superb and my partner enjoyed her lamb. The service was attentive and they did everything to make our evening enjoyable and relaxed. Good value for the quality of food also.
