Christ Church dining hall. This has to be the most famous 'caf' in the world. The stretched neck/heads on the covers of the fireplaces were the inspiration for someone's neck stretching in Alice in Wonderland (still haven't read it or seen it) and there is a huge portrait of King Henry VIII at the end of the hall. But of course the hall is more famously known as the Hogwarts dining hall in the Harry Potter movies! Wow! It's still used by students and it was set up for a small diner when I visited.
