The nineteenth-century former oxen house is now our Ox Barn restraunt under the direction of Head Chef, Charlie Hibbert. A state-of-the-art piece of agricultural architecture at its conception, Caryn Hibbert worked meticulously to preserve the soaring archways and original Cotswold stone rubble walls. Now, it's a modern restaurant with a contemporary bar and seven-and-a-half metre Charvet open kitchen.

The Ox Barn restaurant is unique - set in a magnificent, huge space with soaring ceilings and equipped with sophisticated ventilation systems, it is ideal to accommodate social distancing.

Inside, the tables have been spaced to ensure guests are all around 2m apart and each will be equipped with hand sanitiser. We will only be operating table service to mitigate any queuing at bars, and all our service team will be in face masks. Our teams will be running strict areas, with dedicated servers and clearers.

Booking is essential for lunch and dinner to help us manage the flow of guests and we kindly ask all guests to wear a mask while moving around the inside spaces at Thyme, until you are seated at your table.
