New Year - 2013 - Year of the Sausage
We had a busy Christmas period, admittedly we weren't on our finest game, but we had a lot of people who now know where the restaurant is and will hopefully come and see us when we're not flying around like a headless sausage.
Staffing is always an issue in a place like this, you can't afford to do what the chains do and recruit and train hundreds of people, you have to make the decision to either employ nice people and then train them to carry plates, or employ trained and tired waiters and train them to give a damn, I always opt for the first option, but it can sometimes make things tricky during those early months!
So, 2013, our resolutions are to give the very best service in Oxford, to have staff who actually care, and who aren't serving you from some laminated instructions from Head Office, but who are truly being Hospitable, we are in the hospitality industry after all.
We aim to give the best coffees and needless to say best sausagey based, Great British meal in Oxford, one which supports as many local farmers, brewers, vintners and vegetable growers, prisons and colleges as possible and we'll do it with continued style.
I, for one, can't wait for the sun to start to shine, as our Courtyard area will form the most amazing place ever seen in Oxford for when Bangers & Mash gives way to Barbeque and Beers!
Happy New Year, we hope to see you whenever you would normally have been going to a chain restaurant in 2013.
