The Big Bang restaurant faces closure this summer, after nearly seven years at the centre of Jericho’s foodie scene.
The restaurant, along with four other properties on the corner of Walton Street including La Bottega wine bar and The Last Bookshop, are to be demolished to make way for six new shops and 41 rooms of student accommodation.
Nik Sheorey, an E&M finalist, expressed dismay at the news. “It’ll be a real shame to see it go. The ability to choose between a seemingly infinite series of sausage and mash flavours was really wonderful. Certainly far from the wurst place to eat in Oxford!”
