Tucked away in North Oxford, housed in a beautiful Victorian glasshouse, Gee’s Restaurant & Bar is one of the city’s most iconic dining destinations. With its stunning Grade II listed conservatory, adorned with potted olive trees, lush greenery, and soft Mediterranean hues, it offers a rustic yet effortlessly chic setting for everything from romantic dinners to private celebrations.
Step inside, and you’ll find a restaurant that combines history with contemporary charm. Once a 19th-century greengrocer’s and florist, Gee’s has evolved into a vibrant all-day dining space, filled with the warmth and flavours of the Mediterranean. From the buzz of morning brunches to lively evening feasts, the open kitchen fills the air with the aromas of fresh herbs, sizzling seafood, and slow-cooked meats.
The menu draws inspiration from Italy and Spain, using the best seasonal ingredients to create simple yet bold flavours. Small plates like Serrano ham croquetas or grilled octopus with mojo rojo are perfect for sharing, while heartier mains range from Aubergine Parmigiana to monkfish with brown shrimp and lemon butter. Meat lovers can indulge in a succulent ribeye steak with peppercorn sauce or the cassoulet of pork belly with chickpeas and chorizo, while sweet endings include twice-baked lemon soufflé and a classic Crema Catalana.
For private dining, Gee’s offers a unique space next door in the Gees Gallery - a light-filled, modern venue with bare stone walls, rich green marble, and an evolving art collection. Whether you’re hosting a corporate dinner, intimate wedding, or a family gathering, the gallery provides an elegant yet relaxed setting with its own private bar and state-of-the-art facilities. With its stunning setting, outstanding food, and warm Mediterranean hospitality, Gee’s Restaurant is a place where every meal feels like a special occasion.
