Chen's Cottage is a Chinese restaurant located in Banbury, a working market town that sits on the eastern edge of the Cotswolds.
If you're spending time exploring the surrounding Oxfordshire countryside or driving through the rolling hills, this is a straightforward place to stop for a meal. The restaurant has a warm, homely feel that lives up to its name, and it works equally well whether you're coming in with family and friends or prefer a quieter meal alone. You'll find the usual range of Chinese dishes on the menu, so there's plenty that's familiar to order.
Banbury itself deserves some of your time. The town has real character—it's historically famous for Banbury Cross and for Banbury cakes, which you can still find made locally—and it makes a practical base for exploring the wider region. The town centre is worth a wander, and if you've been out driving through the scenic landscape, Chen's Cottage offers a reliable spot for lunch or dinner where you can rest and refuel before heading back out. It's the kind of dependable neighborhood restaurant that works well after a day of exploring.
