Oxmoor Farm is a small farm in the Chiltern Hill and home to The Barn restaurant, serving Neapolitan-style pizzas and seasonal small plates.
Driven by honest food production and transparency in the supply chain, our mission is to provide locally grown, seasonal food while minimising our environmental footprint. We prioritise ethical and regenerative farming practices, support local artisans, and strive to create a welcoming space where everyone can connect with the origins of their food.
By fostering connections between our guests, local farmers, artisans and employees, we aim to cultivate a thriving, inclusive community that values transparency, respect, equality, and social responsibility.
The Barn restaurant seeks to embody the rural and cosy feel of the British countryside. It is a stylish and relaxed friendly space for the local community to enjoy coffee, patisserie, a glass of wine and honest, simple but well executed food.
