Thame is a market town and civil parish in Oxfordshire, England. It is located about 13 miles (21 km) east of the city of Oxford, 10 miles (16 km) south-west of Aylesbury and 40 miles (64 km) north-west of London. It derives its name from the River Thame, which flows along the north side of the town and forms part of the county border with Buckinghamshire. The parish includes the hamlet of Moreton, just south of the town. The 2011 Census recorded the parish's population as 11,561. Thame was founded in the Anglo-Saxon era and was in the kingdom of Wessex.

As you make your way through Thame's picturesque streets, you'll be greeted by a variety of independent shops, cafes, and restaurants. Whether you're in the mood for a cup of coffee or a full meal, you won't be disappointed with the options available.

In addition to its food scene, Thame is also home to a variety of historical landmarks. The town's Parish Church of St. Mary the Virgin dates back to the 13th century and is a must-visit for anyone interested in architecture or history.
