The Jam Factory oxford

We were looking for a place to have lunch and decided to try The Jam Factory. We were seated promptly and given menus but then the server disappeared. We ended up ordering food from the bar. Our party of three had an order of the roast beef dinner and two orders of the Lady Cluck grilled chicken on a bun. The food was top notch. I would have given five stars but for the confusion over who would take the food order. Our successive server was friendly and attentive. Please stop and enjoy the food and art

This is a great restaurant, that doesn't mind you hanging out for a long time to get work done. They have a nice selection of food with plenty of vegetarian options, as well as stuff for us carnivores. The coffee and tea selection is very good, and they serve sodas by the pint, which is somewhat rare around here. Also, they have a selection of art by locals for sale, which is a nice bonus

This place is great! Dress codes?? Not Here! They are cool with whatever you want to wear. One time I showed up dressed like a dinosaur and they gave me a free lemonade (I am not sure if this is official policy or a one time thing so don't complain if you show up in a dino costume and get nothing) Other times i went there dressed as a tiger or a camel and still no problems. They are really cool. Plus they have awesome comedy shows at this venue. I've seen some amazing, hilarious and inventive shows here over the last year. Those were great too!

Quirky cafe, restaurant and gallery. Good food, good value, friendly staff, central location near railway station. Highly recommended

THE WORST sevice in the world - that guy behind the bar this morning was so grumpy AND rude! Just what you need first thing in the morning! The avocado mash with poached eggs on toast was disgusting, bravo to The Jam Factory was making something so simple, so nasty! If there were any other cafe/restaurant close by, if we weren't in a hurry and so hungry - honestly we would go somewhere else! I DO NOT recommend this place, unless you have a desire to eat with a bunch of flies hovering over your food while you eat!

Interesting place close to the train station in an old jam factory. Food and drinks are pricey. Coffee definitely not good...Update (December 2021) A Christmas dinner organized there; the food/deserts selection was really tasteful and the staff was smiley and make everything to offer a high level service

We have recently completed some painting and decorating work at the Jam Factory. The staff here are very friendly and lovely to work with! I also recently ate here and think the food and service is wonderful! Thank you Claire and the team!

Lunch with a school friend to celebrate a birthday. Absolutely fabulous. My seabream was perfectly cooked and we were looked after superbly. Hope to return before Christmas

As someone else said, I really wanted to like this place. It's got a great aesthetic and the menu, though limited for veggies and vegans, is interesting. The young man at front of house was lovely and friendly and explained how it all worked to us. An auspicious start. But then... The food was brought out not very warm. The waitress who brought it said she would be back with my daughter's fries and our cutlery and then disappeared - I had to go and ask someone if we could have the rest of our meal and something to eat it with. No-one checked on us or asked if we wanted sauces, salt or pepper. The Vege burger I had was very greasy. The food was not worth the money and the service sorely lacking (other than the one young man). Disappointing.

Awesome little bar and gallery. Friendly staff, great selection of drinks and cocktails, and even a small outdoor area. I'm yet to try the food, but certainly plan on doing so!
