Gawcott Restaurants

I go for the buffalo wangz!! As a Brooklyn-born Native New Yorker living in the UK, The Old Auctioneer is one of a scant few establishments in this country whose buffalo wings are the real thing... DEEE-LICIOUS!! Add to that a lovely vibe about the place; it's different sections of the restaurant and courtyard all offer a different ambiance, all pleasant and inviting. A great place to eat, meet and greet. The staff, from the man on the door to the servers and bar staff have always made feel welcome and appreciated. My special little big place in beautiful downtown Banbury.

Really great breakfast Tasty 5 seed porridge and smoke salmon and eggs set us up for intensive shopping day

I had a great time there celebrating Valentine's Day with my girlfriend. We received a great reception from the friendly staff. A great job was done to make the place look stunning. We loved it there. We will definitely be going back.

This is the best meal out we have had in a very long time. Thank you. The food was delicious! I had the seafood linguine, which was very flavourful, my husband had the calzone which was an epic size and he said the best dough he’d eaten. The children both had carbonara which they throughly enjoyed - they want the adult size next time. Service was outstanding! The waiter was great with the children which made the meal more enjoyable for everyone. Highly recommend! A great addition to Towcester.

Amazing 5⭐️service indeed. I was served by a young lady whom was so patience as I waited for my friend, (12h00)She kept on reassuring me that it’s okay to wait and I shouldn’t worry. (2 black ladies) She also made a comment that she didn’t know it was so relevant to me at the time. I lost my brother in December 2024, another one in 2023 totalling my lost siblings to 5! So, she said to me, ‘just relax and spend this time to enjoy yourself’ This was so profound as I had not gotten those simple words that yet meant so much to me. The Asian Floor manager was very attentive also. Thank you The Ivy Team.
