Hello and welcome to The Oxfordshire Foodie blog!
​
So you’re probably wondering who I am and why I started this blog?!
​
My name is Rachel and I run The Oxfordshire Foodie blog. I’m sure I don’t need to tell you that I LOVE food but when I’m not eating or cooking (rarely), you will find me with my husband and 3 children. I have lived in Oxfordshire all my life and have had the pleasure of dining in some amazing restaurants and pubs that we are blessed to have!
​
In my day job, I run my own digital marketing consultancy Diesel Digital. I help small businesses create an affordable digital marketing strategy and support them with branding, social media, search engine optimisation, lead generation and content marketing.
I started my instagram account to showcase the great food, restaurants and pubs that Oxfordshire has to offer. This blog came shortly after as a chance to give more in depth reviews of restaurants and experiences in Oxfordshire.
​
The blog has pushed me to try new places and engage with chefs, restaurants and pubs locally & further afield and I love sharing this journey of foodie discoveries with you all. I am always looking to find new gems and local business food brands so please do get in touch if you can recommend anyone/anywhere!
If you would like to invite me to review your restaurant/pub/event then please get in touch theoxfordshirefoodie@gmail.com. I’d love to get behind the scenes and understand the whole operation and get to know YOU!
​
I recently gave a talk in Oxford where I explained that ‘The Oxfordshire foodie’ blog is all about:
‘Spreading the news about good food in Oxfordshire.’
I am interested in supporting those who are are passionate about food and delivering fantastic foodie experiences in Oxfordshire. For this reason, I only write reviews on places which I believe have something special to offer my readers. I do not wish to ridicule anyone and my blog is based on the age old saying ‘if you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all.’
​
That being said, this blog would be of little use without a little constructive criticism. My reviews are honest and positive…just like me!
You can follow my social media to keep up to date with where I’m reviewing:

Now you know a bit more about me…here’s to more food and fun!
Love & food,
The Oxfordshire foodie
