"I want to give an appropriate repentance, but when I arrived at the restaurant to find that it was closed, there is not much I can say. It was a very special occasion and I went through all emotions of rage too disappointed in about 2 minutes. I cannot for the life that I understand why such a high-rated establishment did not let people know that it was closed, is beyond my understanding. I totally pampered my weekend in Oxford. No matter if your companies were guilty or there's something, nothing changes. I received the booking confirmation that ludicrous!!! I booked the Savoy in November, who went through you again, I hope it will be open on arrival!!!"

Very nice wine bar. Beautiful selection of wines on the glass. Food options limited but very good. Service is friendly and atmosphere is relaxed, ambience is cozy.

The 1855 was closed due to a burst pipe and didn’t even let us know, so a wasted journey to Oxford. I have emailed them about a voucher we were using.. but still no response! View menu

They didn't know we had a reservation. They said they didn't accept it on the Internet. And we did it. They had no menu for dinner. So we couldn't eat and had to find another place.

Do not book this through Open table! The bar (apparently) does not accept bookings through this app so my girlfriend and I turned up to celebrate her birthday having made a booking in plenty of time only to be turned away as the bar was booked for a private function. The bar are aware of this yet do not seem to have made an effort to rectify the situation. Fortunately we were able to get a table at another wine bar in Oxford which was lovely but 1855 very nearly ruined our night.

"I've been going to Oxford for 3 years now and in that time to be frank struggled to find a decent go to restaurant. I can now say with delight i've found my destination. I present SPICED ROOTS a little caribbean culinary gem. The fresh perfectly cooked food is absolutely delicious and gives off that home cooked by mummy vibe and is beautifully presented. The chilli and garlic prawns had my eyes closed Mark Weins style (if you know you know) so juicy with an incredible depth of flavour, the Trini doubles not only were seasoned to perfection they left you wanting more and the Jerk chicken spring rolls were an absolute triumph. For mains we had the ackee and callaloo Jerk Tempah (vegetarian) and the Jerk chicken. Both came with rice peas, plaintain and salad. Not only were the portions huge the flavours of both dishes were just mind blowingly delicious. Then we embarked on dessert and had the beautiful spiced rum cake and a selection of 3 home made ice creams namely Coconut, Guinness and the old Caribbean favourite Rum and Raisin, all recommended by the owner. It's at this point I feel compelled to speak about the rum raisin ice cream. I've eaten this ice cream on numerous occasions at numerous locations in Jamaica over my many years and I tell you no word of a lie this was hands down the best rum and raisin ice cream I've ever tasted, it literally left us speechless. So to summarise, this place has great food, great music, great service and a wonderfully charming owner who's totally invested in serving great, incredibly tasty, authentic Caribbean food clearly prepared with love. What more could you ask for. Fair to say it was meant to be. Uncle Jay."
