The Sweet Olive

Situated in the heart of Aston Tirrold in the South of Oxfordshire lies The Sweet Olive Restaurant run by Frenchmen chef patron Olivier Bouet and his business partner Stéphane Brun. Whilst Olivier focuses on food and Stéphane on front of house and the wine, The Sweet Olive has become an increasingly popular gastro pub. Cosy and welcoming, with pillars and the bar clad in empty French wine boxes, the modest restaurant and pub fill quickly, so booking is recommended. In the summer months take your pint outside and enjoy the beer garden whilst the children play. The blackboard menu evolves daily, as do the specials, with much emphasis placed on seasonal dishes and locally sourced produce. Foie gras and cheeses from France sit comfortably beside English lamb sweetbreads and treacle sponge with home-made ice cream and custard. Or if you prefer a light snack there are always organic baguettes, light salads and delicious chips to choose from. The Sweet Olive is located about 10 minutes from Wallingford and about half a mile off the A417 between Streatley and Wantage, approximately 20 minutes from junction 12 of the M4 and 20 minutes from junction 6 on the M40.
