This is almost like a little speakeasy in a hotel. I love the Art Deco era vibes. Obviously the lighting is very red, it's a good date spot, or late night spot. Their espresso martinis are amazing, they have a lot of other classic cocktails. We got their carrot cake, but it had a strange cardamom spice to it which is why I get four stars instead of five. I also had goat cheese frosting, but it had a weird flavor to it. I absolutely love goat cheese and funky flavors, but I couldn't eat that dessert. The rest of my group liked it, I just couldn't Eat that. Definitely a great cocktail spot

The best whiskey sour I have ever had. It was perfect. Nice and tart and not too sweet. The bartender was quick and accurate. The atmosphere is unique with neon lighting, the inlays in the walls and the jazz music.

Was looking for recommendations for thing to do in the area so we stopped by Oxford. The woman at the front desk, Savannah, was so incredibly friendly and helpful. Even through we weren't guests of the hotel she treated us like booked the presidential suite. She took some time to give us awesome recs. Will definitely be staying here next time. Amazing customer service and hospitality.

Our server didn't know much about the menu (inquired about oysters). Drinks were super sweet but decor was really cute and I'm sure anyone would be fine if they ordered a simple liquor+soda water lime

Love this gem! One of the survivor bars that opened the day prohibition ended. Beautiful design! Lovely cocktails! Not a bar for millennials! Thank god! So you won't see some loser dressed in sweats wearing slides. Date night or when you wanna feel like you are on a movie set! Kudos to keeping it real! The jukebox!stunning.
