    All of the G&D chains are excellent. It's mainly for a light lunch or snack. They all have the same good quality ice-cream. They all do sandwiches and toasties. It's a lunch shop basically. This one is the most Wheelchair friendly one of all. It has an accessible door but few seating spaces downstairs (it has a meziane in the middle up one stair). It has an excellent accessible loo but the turning circle is tight for RWD chairs if I'm honest. Reliable place to go and always popular. Not the most neurodivergant place to chill if I'm honest. But cosy up by the back door and loos in the summer and the open back door helps with noise dissipation.

    It's an institution in Oxford. If you visit Oxford and desire an ice cream or sorbet this is the place for you. Yes they have bagels and sandwiches. Hot and cold drinks. They have a great range of things to eat when you are working or studying here. You always see people using the location to get out and work in a better place. The range of ice creams and sorbets changes all the time so it makes it very exciting to come here to see what they have on offer. Excellent food and ice cream so you best check it out. I highly recommend here. Please press like if you found my review helpful thank you.

    Absolutely fantastic place for icecream ! They also have decent menu for munching on something light, but it's the icecream of G&D that stands apart. While the G&D in city centre of Oxford closes early in the evening, the G&D at Cowley road stays open till midnight. I have now tried most of the flavours at G&D and my personal favourite is Turkish Delight.

    Went to G&Ds today and felt very good buying my after eight ice cream :)!! The taste was not as memorable as I remembered but I am glad that it is open till late despite of the current situation :) Will be even better if they have a plastic shield and masks for the staff member! Update: 20th November 2021: great atmosphere and rum and raisin and mint ice cream was lovely!! Lovely staff and nice chai latte as well :) more savoury pastry could be nice as well. Student discounts will be great as well.

    Just happened to stumble upon this place & we really loved it. Nice selection of breakfast, snacks & ice cream. The ice cream flavors are rather unique It is really creamy but not too sweet & you get a generous portion..Great place to bring kids to on the weekend for brunch or snacks. However, it seems more like a student hang-out & always busy. The queue moves rather slowly & you do need to wait for a bit to get your order. Still worth a visit!

    We have been coming here for years - the icecream remains great but the service is appalling. Have been here twice in two weeks and faced this. The female server continued a conversation with a friend ignoring us while we waited to be served. Her demeanour makes it very clear she doesn’t want to be serving anyone! the young man who served us today was really wonderful though. This young lady is serving icecream - adding a small smile would make the experience nicer for the customers.

    Kids enjoyed their ice cream but for me I found it very average

    One of the best cafes in Oxford!! The food is AMAZING, and not overly expensive. Plus there is ice cream and a kind and great atmosphere and people. Also there is free WIFI. :D <3

    Really nice ice cream, when you visit Oxford you must go there. It is open until late.

    A wonderful place for great snacks and deserts. The ice cream selection is kind blowing and the cookies all looked incredible. Nice relaxed atmosphere and speedy service. The Dime Bar cookie with ice-cream on the side was to die for. Amazing!!

    This is a great venue I had the very good salmon and cream cheese bagel, the excellent Flapjack, and a great coffee. The staff were friendly and efficient. Thanks.

    I'm Australian and have been desperate for a good quality "dirty chai latte" since arriving in the UK. George & Delilah didn't strictly have this on the menu, but made it for me anyway. Just like home!

  • 3/5 Katherine M S. 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely place and fab staff, but I’m pretty sure their oat milk was off :( It tasted absolutely disgusting. Happened to a friend of mine too, he spoke to the staff but without much response. Tasted really awful, barely touched my latte. Please add date labels to your oat milks and check they’re refrigerated, and used within the time after opening specified on the box. 🤢

    First time visiting but not the last. Delicious fresh to order bagels and the lads behind the counter kindly changed gloves on my request! Waffles were super fluffy. Affordable price for the quality. Service was friendly and efficient. 100% reccomend.

    Came here for a Bagel and a coffee. Staff are very nice, roughly £2.65 for a coffee and. £4.65 for a bagel. They also do ice creams! Sometimes service is a tad slow but mostly fast

    What a fantastic place. Nice to find a sensibility priced place to come for a coffee. Staff are pleasant and friendly. Have a great playlist of varied music too. If playing Pokémon Go it’s in reach of 4 pokestops and gym.

    Wonderful ice cream and the bagel sandwiches are good. But the ice cream wins honeycomb with coffee or the popcorn flavor are hands down the best

  • 5/5 Pranava T. 1 year ago on Google
    Love the wide choice of bagels here! The pizza bagels taste so good! But the one I prefer is the Greek salad bagel. The feta cheese and hummus combination is great!

  • 5/5 Kay 2 years ago on Google
    Ordered mango sorbet, raspberry and lemon sorbet (I think) and the new york blues ( i think. basically its blueberry cheesecake or something). the sorbets were just normal but the new york blues was SOOOOOOO nice!!! Probably one of the best milk based ice creams I've ever had. It was super creamy and I just loved it.
