Inside, the restaurant is split into a ground floor and a room at the basement level, suitable for busy days and private functions.

Above the restaurant is a three-bedroom owner's accommodation.

Estate agent, Christie & Co, Pubs & Restaurants said: “Rarely do high street properties become available in the heart of Chipping Norton, the current owners have built up a successful business but are now emigrating back to Australia.

“A new operator now has the opportunity to continue the current restaurant or could establish a new style of operation appealing to the affluent local community, who would welcome a new offering to the town.”
