About Pompette
Pompette is an independent French restaurant and wine bar in Summertown, Oxford, run by husband and wife duo Pascal and Laura Wiedemann. The name comes from the French word for tipsy. Pascal trained classically in French cookery and worked in London restaurants for 14 years, including Racine with Henry Harris, Terroirs with Ed Wilson, and Six Portland Road. His cooking takes inspiration from across Europe with a focus on simplicity, comfort and care, using seasonal produce made from scratch from stocks and sauces to desserts and baguettes. The restaurant offers a weekday prix fixe menu at £28 for three courses, alongside evening offers such as saucisse frites on Tuesdays, poulet frites on Wednesdays and steak frites on Thursdays. A petit déjeuner is served in the mornings, and an apéro hour runs in the early evening. Upstairs, a vintage elegant private dining room seats parties of 8 to 14, with seasonal menus at £75 or £95 per person. The ground floor bar serves charcuterie alongside fine wines by the glass and classic cocktails. Pompette has been recognised with AA Rosettes and appears in the Michelin Guide.
