ASK - Twickenham
For some time I made the mistake of thinking that no group of restaurants in the region of 200 locations could hope to maintain the quality for which I was looking. Then one day I decided to put my prejudices to the test, walked into Oxford Ask! and discovered that I could not have been more mistaken.

Brula
You might be forgiven for wondering if you had strayed into a place of worship when you first arrive at Brula. It's the stained glass windows (really good ones, too), the handsome pews, padded for the benefit of those with long memories of aching behinds, that make the point.

This particular El Vino is handy for the oval ball grabbers, and offers an inspired mix of hot, cold and speciality tapas amidst an array of Mediterranean artefacts.

Grand Union - Twickenham, The
The Grand Union Group, an independent chain of pub-restaurant and bar-grill venues, certainly awes guests with its classic feel. Each location is uniquely designed and in warm weather there is no better place to dine that at the beer garden in Brixton, and if it's a group celebration, settling down in the sheltering surroundings of one of their four exclusive tree houses.

Grill Room, The
A welcome addition to the Ma Cuisine group of restaurants is The Grill Room in Twickenham, a modern British steakhouse that produces some very commendable steaks and grilled seafood.
