ADRIA Ristorante Pizzeria — Restaurant in Oxford

Wheelchair accessible or dine outside this place does all the Italian classics. I have to give the decor a 10 out of 10 for all the fine details which bring pleasure to the eye. You can have a simple coffee or gelato here or a basic Italian meal. They also have a patisserie section. Fine place and fairly decent service.

They have two gardens, one back and one front and then a main restaurant area and a few seats at the bar.

To use the toilets with a wheelchair you would need to be able to transfer as they are a folding door which flank on to two loos opposite each other. Due to the doors being folding in both loos you will be able to fold the door and transfer with about 3 steps. Since the wash bowl is in the centre of the two doors. I blocked the centre door with my powerchair so no one else could use the loo in order to make my transfer. The staff were fine with that in the middle of the day!

Regards access, there is a ramp BUT there is also a small lip to get over. My daughter could not get a 20" wide manual chair through the front door so had to fold. I suggest you eat outside if you can't wheelie the hump or you have a large manual chair. I have a large powerchair slightly wider than normal with a docking system and it coped!

Autistic rating: 3/5 for day time ambience. I will review again if we...

Not impressed at all!

Im confused by the other reviewers and whether we are referring to the same restaurant! I went to Adria in Headingtom Oxford last Sunday 9th January 2022 with my family of 5 (2 adults 3 children) and was disappointed. The food took 40 minutes to arrive! My children were ravenous by the time it came The waitress made no attempt to apologise for the delay Take aways customers that ordered after us were receiving their food before us The waitress looked grumpy, moody and with no sense of cheerful customer service My penne paste was dry and horrible My sons pizza looked uncooked with slimy cheese and the base was so thin it was barely there (he was still hungry after)! There was hardly any filling in the faccacina sandwhich-thingys.

Ok, so we have been to this restaurant twice before, we loved the food the first time (around 4 years ago) so we went back. The second time the food was hugely delayed, didnt taste as good and there was a different grumpy moody waitress who was awfully rude to another customer, so we decided we would not go there again. In the hope of changed attitudes and new staff we thought we'll try Adria one more time after 2 years of boycotting it, but we were bitterly disappointed. Will not be going there again and will warn others...

We visited the restaurant due to having such high recommendations from friends and family and from living in Headington. When we arrived we was greeted by a very unhappy member of staff, she didn't smile or seem welcoming at all. This made us feel extremely uncomfortable, as she also slammed the door behind us, to the point where we asked if they were closing in terms of being an inconvenience and she shook her head. If the Restraunt wasn't so highly recommended we would have left from how we were treated. However, we stayed which we were very happy we did. The food was absolutely lovely , cooked to perfection and lovely flavours. We had a range of pizza, gnocchi and risotto. The ice cream was iconic , not only the consistency but also the flavours. We had a second waitress who we think may have been Italian who was much more pleasant. I can happily say we will be coming back as the atmosphere and layout of the restaurant was very cute and cosy, the food was excellent value of money and despite the cold greeting the rest of our experience was...
