We are open as usual today. St. Clements Street area is not bad at all, traffic as usual and pavements are a bit slushy. Please take extra care ☺️

Hello Oxford ! We hope you have had a good Easter Holiday.
Our fluffy hot buns and freshly baked pastry are ready to be served from 7.30am tomorrow, Wednesday. We look forward to seeing some familiar faces and meeting some new faces too.
super delicious and authentic food!!!
made my day in Oxford, definitely visiting again if i go to Oxford.
highly recommend!! a true taste of home :)
Went today as I was waiting for a bus at the stop outside which never turned up. I Wanted a chicken steamed bun, but they were going to be ready in a few minutes. The person serving went out their way to check when my bus would be coming for me which helped (: However, unfortunately, since my bus was going to come in 2 mins (and it did in the end) I wasn't in time for the chicken steamed buns, so I got a pork one instead ... best, decision, ever! I have tried a few steamed buns from various places, but have never tasted one this good! Sadly, I am graduating this year so won't be in the area anymore, but whenever I am around I will go and get another one of those great steamed buns! (:
Pork buns are really great! Chicken were not quite as good.
Lovely unique food and great service, will keep going for yummy food :)
