My wife and daughter in law visited this establishment on Saturday 14th May. They had three children with them one who was disabled in a over size wheelchair. They decided to use a outside table as the wheelchair was to big to fit into the cafe. My wife went to order the drinks and snacks, when she got to the front of the queue was informed she was in the wrong queue, she was told to go to the next queue.so my wife joined the next line once she got to the front, she was informed she was in the wrong line and to go back to the first line. My wife informed her she was told by the other staff member to join that queue. She was then told to go to a third till, my wife refused to move the staff refused to serve her. So they went to Greggs where they were served with no hassle, the food was cheaper and just as good the kids loved it.sorry Boswell your customer service and staff attitude is a good way to lose customers and you...

It has a quintessential "European coffeeshop" feel to it. The chairs are a little too hard to sit on for too long. The music ranges from folk to blues to trip hop to indie but mostly...
Read moreBoswell's Didcot have extremely friendly staff who will do anything they can for you even when the place is packed and they are run off their feet - this really makes me feel valued as a customer. I've been to other chains who shall remain nameless where people looked as they couldn't be bothered with me even though there was hardly anyone waiting to be served. They have an extensive menu which makes it so much more than a cafe, and the food is always hot. I do really like their All Day Breakfast on occasion, but my favourite is their Chicken Piri Piri panini, or the Tuna Melt if I feel like a change, with some lovely hot, crisp chips. Well worth a bus journey in from Abingdon to treat myself, and highly...
