The Folly Restaurant

The Folly Restaurant is one of Oxford's prettiest riverside stops and feels particularly rewarding after a waterside walk. Overlooking the river and offering dining inside or out on a floating terrace, it pairs the setting with fresh, seasonal food and a slightly more special-occasion atmosphere than a standard city café or pub. Dogs are welcome inside in the bar area, where food is also served.

For dog owners, it makes an excellent pause when you want the stop itself to feel like part of the day out rather than simply a practical break. Mention your dog when booking so the team can find you a table where everyone can settle comfortably together.

Scenic, elegant and unmistakably Oxford, it's very easy to linger here with paws and people both enjoying the riverside atmosphere.
