Cafe Ma Belle
Ma Belle is probably the only semi-authentic French restaurant in Oxford - apparently they imported their three chefs from France -, but you would probably do better to save your money - or the cost of four dinners at Ma Belle - and go to Paris. The food seems to have gone downshill, even perennial Francophile favourite, Coq au Vin turned out to be more like au chicken sauce and seriously lacking in flavour. The decor, bar and outside seating are all pleasant enough, but the food's just not up to scratch. Go for coffee, give dinner a miss
