About GAIL's
At 251 Banbury Road, OX2 7HN you will find GAIL's, an artisan bakery serving Summertown, Oxford. Bread is taken seriously here, with naturally leavened loaves a highlight. It is one of 174 GAIL's Bakery locations we list across the UK.
Doors are open on 7 days each week. It opens as early as 7am, handy for a pre-work loaf or coffee. Sunday trading makes it a useful weekend option. At its most recent food hygiene inspection on 5 March 2026, Oxford City gave the business a rating of 5 out of 5 – a maximum score.
Rail links are some distance away – Oxford station is about 1.7 mi off – so plan to drive, cycle or catch a local bus. It is not the only option nearby: there are 2 more bakeries within a kilometre, so a bakery crawl is easily done. From central Oxford it is roughly 1.8 mi away.
