Quick info
About The Greenhouse & Terrace, Banbury
The Greenhouse & Terrace is a snack and cocktail bar in Banbury, following a rebrand, and it operates as a hotel venue. Its rooftop terrace hosts evening events, which gives the bar an after-dark setting above street level. Food comes as snacks rather than full meals, with cocktails as the main draw of the bar. Signage pointing to the venue is limited, so it helps to know it sits within the hotel before you set out.

Reviewers most often praise the rooftop terrace, describing a chilled atmosphere that suits a sunny day, with reasonable prices and friendly, chatty waiting staff. Evening events on the roof also get a mention. Complaints focus on disorganized staff, a lukewarm beer, slow drinks, and an undercooked, then overcooked chicken for a party of eight. Some note the food has changed to snacks and cocktails.

“It was a nice place with a good food a year ago but now it is dirrty outside , staff is lost with everything ... they don't have a nice menu no more and I think menaggers don't realy care enough to make any PR for this restaurant ... little bit of effort. Some nice events on the roof during the evenings and I bet half of the Banbury would love to go there. I was a menager of the hotel so I'm shocked of the potential that has been lost in there.”

“Great bar, lovely place to sit on a sunny day. Prices are reasonable. Could do with more signage pointing to where it is, easy to miss.”

“Great little find up on open terrace rooftop with nice chilled atmosphere. Special mention to Mia for the lovely conversation. Her customer service is excellent!! 👌🙂”

“Edit: they have since “rebranded” it seems it’s more of a snack and cocktail bar now, which is a shame because they did great food before. Amazing addition to Banbury, in fact you would mistake that you are in Banbury!!”
