I’m telling you right off the bat, this is a goofy episode. It probably doesn’t do the wonderful city of Oxford justice. Or maybe it does. Maybe this is a unique look at Oxford from the perspective of people who lived it and loved it. All I know is that it was fun to make and probably the episode with the most heart.

In our Oxford travel guide, I’m joined by my brothers Andrew and Will who both went to university in Oxford. I’m also joined by Will’s uni flat mate and dear friend, filmmaker Nick. And if you look closely, you may even get a rare “‘in front of the camera” glimpse of Greg.

Oxford is full of surprises. And I was glad to be shown around by the experts who could get beneath the veneer of this beautiful city and introduce to some Oxford classics. Enjoy!

    There is no need to apologize for not showing the "noble" side of Oxford, and making things more personal and down to earth. Oxford is so well known that if one is looking for the typical travel show that features the illustrious history and heritage of the city, those types of videos can be easily found. This more intimate and day to day coverage of this city, from a resident's perspective, is valuable and is a nice change of pace. Thank you.

    Could one of you not told me to do my hair before shooting! Come on, baby don't play that way.

    Such a great time. I'm glad there was some footage beyond us all giggling about old jokes the entire time.

    Really enjoyable to see something so personal. Hope to see you cover Brighton and somewhere in Scotland one day.

    Omg I’ve followed you for years. You’ve inspired me to travel to so many places – and now you’ve come to my home town!

    another excellent guide, and got to agree about the full english, some of the worst looking cafes have the best brekkie ever !!! but no black pudding tut tut

    I'm surprised none of the numerous homeless people and crackheads interrupted your filming. Also, Turf Tavern is a tourist trap, you're better of going to The Bear, or a little walk along the canal brings you to The Perch. Lamb and Flag has been closed for a long time now, though is apparently reopening sometime in the future. Kebab Kid is mediocre at best, you'll probably just about stave off food poisoning there, but I wouldn't recommend it as a destination.

    Food is overall quite expensive in Oxford and of questionable value/quality, an overabundance of distinctly mediocre restaurants, though there are a handful of gems (Mission Burrito, Pierre Victoire, Spiced Roots, Arbequina, Zheng) . Check out the Gloucester Green food market when it's open, and "Buenosera" Italian cafe on the corner of Gloucester Green. Also home to (what was) one of the best cocktail bars in the country, "Raouls", which sadly hasn't "yet" reopened from Covid. Covered market is sadly a shadow of what it used to be, a great local market turned tourist junk arcade. Pitt Rivers museum is great, shame it didn't get a mention, though has gone down in my estimation ever since they removed the "Shrunken Heads" from display, bowing to the woke mob.

    The best things in Oxford are unfortunately the bits 99% of people don't get to see, outside the center/city itself, but you need a car, public transport won't cut it. Lots of villages lost in time, fantastic freehouse pubs, rivers, streams and forests. The center of Oxford is quite literally manufactured for students and tourists, bear that in mind, unless you enjoy being surrounded by large groups of people with matching yellow backpacks and following someone with a flag on a stick.

    I spent a few years Oxford and they were by far the best of my life! Thank you for this video, it brought back so many great memories.

    ❤❤❤ Absolutely adored this. Long time Attaché viewer, and graduate of the wonderful city of Oxford (twice), you did not do this city dirty at all. About one of the most authentic insights into Oxford life I’ve ever seen. X

    Your best episode to date, and that's really saying something! I spent a summer in Oxford a few years back, and this brought back so many amazing memories from that magical time. Although as you so eloquently stated at the end, they are as much about the people I was with as they are about the place itself. Cheers!
