Decorated with classic posters, warm yellow walls and chunky mirrors – not to mention the plaster-cast clown – this Cowley Rd veteran is especially popular for brunch. Its global menu ranges from ‘healthy’ and cooked breakfasts to pizzas, salads, burgers, pastas, mezze platters, Mediterranean mains and zingy fresh juices. Or just swing by for cocktails (happy hour 5pm to 7.30pm).
