The bar had no atmosphere. The music was boring and the DJ was being quite rude.

Great service, drinks, music and atmosphere - definitely recommend and will be back for sure. Might be a little too loud for a conversation but it's Friday night, can't complain 10/10

The company/person knew nothing about the booking, so we never even had a drink. Awful experience, would NOT recommend to anyone.

We booked a table for 5.30 on a Saturday, so it was still fairly quiet. The staff were lovely and I think the cocktails are the best in Oxford. Can’t wait to go back.

The bat tender was fantastic! Took real consideration in making the cocktails. It was like a little show on its own.

The drinks were lovely but there were no snacks available at all in the evening and the music far too loud; very difficult to place a drink order at the front reception bar because of the noise. Nevertheless service was prompt and cocktail prices reasonable.

We booked a table for six and was initially allocated to a very small table that we could hardly fit everyone. Luckily, they moved us to a bigger space after realising that not everyone can actually sit. Overall, it was a great OXO experience, the drinks are reasonable with the price and tastes really good. Music is very nice and not too loud. I always love coming to OXO with friends!
