The Duke Of Cambridge — Restaurant in Oxford

So many other bars in Oxford, won’t be returning here… There were 3 different menus throughout the bar, one from a QR code on the table, one on the website and another paper one at the bar. All had a different time for happy hour?? We booked a table for 6:30 specifically to be here over happy hour but when we went to order drinks we were told it had finished and had to pay full price (£12 for a cocktail) even tho on one menu it said it finished at 7 and another at 7:30?? This was on a Saturday and they had run out of lemonade, grenadine and passion fruit so didn’t have all the ingredients for a lot of cocktails on the menu. I assume this was the manager (as he was asked about our table when we said we had a booking) but he was on his phone in the corner most of the time we were there aswell which isn’t great when there is a queue at the bar with one bartender. Cocktails are nice but very expensive, just so many other locations in oxford that aren’t as expensive and actually stick to the happy hour prices they have...

This has been my favorite bar (definitely cocktail bar) in Oxford for years! Amazing cocktails, great service... but mainly the feel, look, and atmosphere was 5 star! However, for some reason they have added a really strange painted wall behind the bar - it look's so out of place and does not fit with the vibe/look. Previously it had a classy mirrored wall with bottles and a warming light - looked like a classy! Now it just looks... very strange and has sadly changed the whole vibe/look of the place. I truly mean that it has sadly put me off somewhat. It is a rare that somewhere updates and it looks worse... but 100% this is one of those rarity's. I asked other customers what they thought and ALL of them (that had been before) said the same. I hope the management recognise this and move towards something more...

Really annoyed me. Stood at the end of the bar because the rest of the bar was full. Guy making cocktails was very slow. Made the mistake of not moving towards the centre of the bar as people took their drinks, why would you? Guy served 2 sets of people who walked straight up to the centre of the bar and totally ignored me. He only served me when I called out "Excuse me. Am I invisible? I was ahead of these people and the last people you served." No apology. A guy behind me said exactly the same had happened to him. Mediocre cocktails, small, overpriced, rude staff, don't bother as there are plenty more places in Little Clarendon Street...
