Location: The clue&#8217;s in the name, no? 



I didn&#8217;t know Oxford Town Hall had a café. No, you probably wouldn&#8217;t &#8211; it&#8217;s tucked away at the back of the building, with only a few sneaky signs, and it just re-opened this Spring. 



There are loads of cafés in Oxford though. True dat, but this one is strategic pit-stop if you want to escape the bustle of the high street without having to trek out of the city centre. Fancy popping in? 



Ooh, go on then, I&#8217;m starving. Good &#8211; the menu here&#8217;s short but sweet, and sandwiches are the main port of call so we can eat ourselves into a carb coma. 



I guess they&#8217;re pre-packed paninis? Actually, no. The caterers Elegant Cuisine make everything fresh in their Kingston Bagpuize HQ and then run it over in the morning. And everything&#8217;s as locally-sourced as poss &#8211; the coffee comes from the Oxford Coffee Company, and the cakes are made by NOOD in Botley. I&#8217;m gunning for a brie and mango chutney ciabatta, what about you?

Gah, I forgot, I just went vegan last week. No probs, they have that covered, and gluten-free too. 



What&#8217;s that big room next door? Ah&#8230; that&#8217;s the gallery. The café is working on transforming it into a furnished co-working space which will be pretty awesome. We&#8217;re keeping our beady eye on it, and will indiscreetly spread the word asap, don&#8217;t worry.



OK, coffee done, what next? Peasy. Pop into the Museum of Oxford your my way out &#8211; it&#8217;s literally next door, and an easy win with little kids ( there&#8217;s a dress up day on 2 July btw) and bribe them into good behaviour with a café brownie . One to go, please.
