Quod
Bright, buzzing and decked out with modern art and beautiful people, this joint dishes up modern brasserie-style food to the masses. It’s always bustling and, at worst, will tempt you to chill by the bar with a cocktail while you wait. The two-course set lunch (£12.95) is great value.

Gee’s
Set in a Victorian conservatory, this top-notch restaurant is popular with the visiting parents of university students, thanks to its creative menu of modern British and European dishes. The two-/three-course lunch menu is a great bet at £17/21 and the setting is stunning, though the atmosphere is rather formal. Book ahead.

Fishes
Old and quaint on the outside but sleek and modern inside, this popular summer haunt, a couple of miles west of the city centre, is gastropubbery at its best, with more unusual ingredients such as quinoa sitting comfortably alongside great bangers and mash on the menu. The pub is 3 miles out of town; head south along the A34 and follow the sign after the Botley junction.

Door 74
This cosy little place woos its fans with a rich mix of British and Mediterranean flavours and friendly service. The menu is limited and the tables tightly packed, but the food is consistently good and weekend brunches (full English breakfast, pancakes) supremely filling. Book ahead.
