The Fish, Abingdon

Part-bar, part-French restaurant, there's lots of emphasis on the grape with wine bottles galore. A small bar is located to your left on entry and offered St Austell Tribute and Ruddles Best (£1.75 a half and decent). The focus is on dining which many were doing on my Sunday lunchtime visit, but there's no issue with just having a drink and there's plenty of room to do so without feeling in the way.
