Historical version 7 of St. Giles' Cafe (Pre-2013) (view current version)
A typical greasy spoon caff, offers the best fries-up in Oxford. The portions remain large though the chips are slimmer than they were five years ago. Can be smokey, however and gets crowded (which may mean sharing a table with a strange(er)). The coffee here is superb, much better than G And Ds (Little Clarendon Street) and probably some of the best in the North Central region, at about 80p a cup. The tea is less impressive. The owner is friendly, if you like talking about football.
Has serious competition for the title of best fry-up from the [Excelsior]? place on Cowley Road.
