WORK has begun to refurbish a former wine cafe in Summertown to create a new restaurant.

The Oxford Wine Cafe unit in South Parade is being refurbished and rebranded as 'No.38' - a new cafe and restaurant.

The company sold its cafe last year to focus on its central outlets, including the wine cafe in Jericho, a shop in Turl Street and Sandy's Piano Bar off High Street.

The new owners of the Summertown space have started work to transform it but an opening date has not yet been revealed.
