I.

Couldn't recommend this place enough. Perfect coffee, almond croissant on point. Amazing location and such a nice vibe with great outdoor with views to the canal. There's space for laptops and they've got two indoor floors, so plenty of space. Super friendly staff with some Spanish produce as the owner is Spanish (I think I saw tortilla at the weekend?). They've got a beautiful loyalty coffee card which I was happy to get as a souvenir :) Will definitely come back when we're back in Oxford and try their sambos.

Such a cute cafe with lovely staff, lovely interior and lovely seating outside next tot the river as well! The prices of baked goods were so affordable and I loved that they had filter coffee option. The art decor inside was very beautiful and they bring you drinks to your seat which was lovely as well. The pastel de nata was amazing and would love to try more of their baked items! Highly recommend :)!

What a gorgeous cafe by the river! Amazing food and delicious coffees in a beautiful and artistic environment. 100% recommendable you can not visit Oxford without stopping by this place. Welcoming staff, clean environment and relaxing place for everyone. Will definitely be back asap

What a lovely place!! Friendly staff and cozy atmosphere with a nice river view! Most of all one of the best coffee I’ve ever experienced in UK!

This is the best café in Oxford!! Amazing tea and coffee, awesome food and super friendly staff. You can feel how Patri and Daniel, the owners, took care of every detail ❤️

J. S.

Lovely new friendly cafe and super nice staff! Has great outdoor area. Fab coffee and homely vibe. A bit cosy indoors and hard to get a table when busy but worth it.

M. F. I. B.

Beautiful cafe in Oxford! Coffee and Food were amazing after a long walk around the city 🥰 Thank you guys!

L. G.

Really really lovely new café in a great location! I have been twice now and the coffee (they have a huge selection) and pastries/muffins/cake are delicious. Really lovely staff too!

A. C.

The BEST Carrot Cake by far I've ever eaten. Great coffee and lovely staff. Garden with river view is a perfect place to sit and relax. Highly recommended!!

J. L.

Nice coffee and they have Oatly. Seating downstairs by the river was cute and staff were all friendly

I really love this location, by the river and almost under Folly Bridge. Friendly staff brought us excellent coffee, carrot cake and almond croissant as we looked at the passing river traffic (just canoeists, swans and ducks this day!). The sun shone as we looked at the restaurant, and their river boats on the opposite bank. Lovely!

B. N. Y.

Total yum. The tortilla (Spanish omelette) here is the best lunch you’ll find around. They sometimes have changing and exciting items on the sweet selection, and always cute latte art. Beans are from Routes, run by stellar women. GO!

M. J.

Lovely small café on Folly Bridge with indoor and outdoor seating. Friendly staff, good coffee and excellent tortilla, simple but perfectly done and still warm from the pan. Just right for a light lunch.

I. W.

Lovely little cafe right on the river. Proper coffee and fresh cakes and pastries.

Á. H.

Good beans, nice atmosphere, kind staff; a little more attention to brewing would improve the overall experience. The plastic cups though…they do look nice but the feel of it is just not right.

E. M.

Lovely little, quiet cafe with delicious baked goods, friendly staff and seating beside the river in central Oxford. Beautiful.

R. C.

Nice cafe with small seating inside and more by the river. Various drinks on offer, lovely in sunshine.

R. C.

Lovely tiny cafe with friendly staff, excellent pastries and a clean toilet - a real asset to Oxford. I’ll be back!

I. F.

Thank you very much for having us! Wonderful place and lovely people. The coffee and the food are amazing. It is great to have a place in Oxford with art exhibitions and an awesome atmosphere.

T. G.

Amazing - so pleased I found this place! When most of Oxford city centre has become franchised and repetitive, this cosy cafe really stands out as unique and homely. The staff are incredible too and you really feel welcomed. This place has some lovely freshly made cakes, desserts etc and the coffee is great. Also - great location! Bring on the summer when you can sit outside and enjoy Oxfords views from this coffee shop. Can’t wait to go again.

P. K.

Few choice for breakfast with cute and calm sitting area

G. W.

Wow! What a great find!! Very sweet little cafe. Great views and food is even better. It’s a bit of a walk but once you find it on a summers day the views looking out onto the river opposite the similarly wonderful Folly are a real hotspot. If you are visiting the river walk is lovely just behind the pub opposite.

B. G.

Very nice experience, view was mesmerising and baristas were helpul as well as sweet. Coffee itself was served and made beautifully. It was a memorable experience.

J. W.

This place is fantastic and should be visited if you find yourself in oxford. Visit the “secret” courtyard and chat with the friendly staff—favourite cafe in Oxford.

J. S.

Nice Coffee, Lovely place to sit and relax. We stopped by here for a coffee first time today, it's a very small cafe right on the edge of the bridge, there is additional seating downstairs but the best place to sit is at one of the handful of tables right by the river. The location of this cafe and the small size makes it feel very intimate and being by the river was very relaxing. I would definitely recommend visiting this one. I tried the dirty chai as I've never had it before and it was really good, the spices and espresso mixed had a sweet bitter flavour and it smelled great. Will go back again soon.

M. S.

Amazing coffee & amazing pastries! Staff were super friendly and accommodating, would highly recommend!

T. W.

A wonderful little cafe! The staff are very friendly and helpful and the food was divine!

I. B.

If I could I would get everyone to come here all the time. The staff are the most vibrant, wonderful, relatable friendly amazing people you will ever meet! The décor is just so claiming and the food is just utterly amazing. Cannot recommend their doughnuts and pastries highly enough. They make a mean chai latte and are located in the best spot with the most amazing view of the river Thames. It really cannot get any better. All of the details in making this cafe so great have been taken care of. Will be back again and again.

J. A.

Lovely cafe in a very nice neoclassical building besides the river. Owner very friendly and helpful.

R. H.

Wonderful, friendly service and a fantastic river view with geese, ducks, wood pigeon and river boats. Plus their mini galley

J. K.

What a delightful cafe! I went with 8 friends for my birthday celebration and the staff could not have been more accommodating and friendly and delicious coffees and pastries too! I highly recommend this lovely coffee shop!

Absolutely outstanding service. Spanish omelette was delicious and coffee was excellent.

Almost reticent to post this, as I want to keep this place a secret. The coffee is excellent, the service friendly, and on a sunny day the seats by the water are divine. Five stars. Long live the Paper Boat!
