The Old Auctioneer is a 500 year old listed building in the centre of Banbury with wonderful character and history. It is now the home of great quality comfort food, incredible wings and much more. All dishes are homemade and cooked to order, and we have a lovely terrace for outside dining throughout the year.

We are open from 5pm Monday - Thursday & from 12pm Friday - Sunday and are located on Parsons Street in the heart of Banbury centre. For any enquiries for parties of more than 8 people, please give us a ring or drop us an email and one of our team can help you out.
We look forward to seeing you soon!

    Food and price average. The pizza was fresh and delicious. However, the heated garden where we sat down was cold for dining. The staff was very accommodating and friendly.
