The Jericho Cafe is a fabulous place to eat. Set in the bohemian Jericho neighbourhood near central Oxford. My husband and I went for brunch as we’d heard how good it was. Our first impressions were that it had a really nice feel walking in. The staff were super friendly and helpful. I loved the look inside the cafe with the lovely artwork of Walton street. The baked goods displayed looked so good and inviting, but we’d come for brunch and didn’t want to get sidetracked. My husband is a meat eater and I’m a vegetarian. The menu was great and so concise catering for everyone’s dietary requirements. Our food arrived super quick and was hot and delicious. The coffee was superb, no wishy washy coffee here. It was such a good price too. Our favourite cafe so far in Oxford.

The Jericho Cafe is one of my favourite location to go for a brunch. The cafe is very popular, everyone love it Personally, I need 3 combined elements to come back somewhere : - Friendly staff members - Good atmosphere - and of course tasty food Here, you can be sure my 3 needed key points are met ! They are busy, but they know how to cope with the amount of people visiting the cafe. It feels like each staff member has been given a task in the morning and they stick to it. So no one walk on each others feet ! They are always serving you with a smile, so great Thank you to each and everyone of you for bringing sunshine even on a rainy day. Keep up the good work, you're all amazing

The prices here are higher end so I’ve high expectations. Service is excellent from the onset. So far the coffee w/oat milk is ace. Eggs how I like them, I asked for scrambled. (This isn’t an option in most cafes.) 9am and is almost full already. (Wait, seating downstairs, no worries!) The food was delicious, the staff are lovely and efficient. The atmosphere is like walking into a cafe in “Mama Mia.” I loved it. When you hear staff singing along you know you’re in a happy place. This establishment deserves your attention My associate’s opinion... “The breakfast was incredibly tasty. Bacon and egg waffles with maple syrup to be honest, the price was as competitive as elsewhere if not a little cheaper than most places we’ve visited!” There you have it.

One of my favorite cafes at Oxford - great, lively atmosphere; very good coffee and most of the food I've tried is well-made. Their cakes, especially the lemon blueberry, are amazing as well! Sit by the large windows if you can, especially when it's sunny out. Would definitely recommend it to anyone around the Jericho area!

A cute little cafe in the centre of Jericho. Very sleek interior. Love the window tables. They serve a variety of breakfast options - waffle, avocado toast, and cakes and drinks. A great spot to hang out with friends. Will come back.

Had some tea and cake here which was lovely! It was a slice of peach & vanilla cake I think - very fluffy and light with some jelly. Not too sweet and just what we wanted! I like the decor as well - the mural was cute!
