I've only put one star for the sake of the bar staff. My partner booked a meal for last Sunday at 21:45 ( so we'd have been the last table served probably ) however we got there earlier than planned so got a drink in the bar and informed the bar staff we were early but had a table booked so didn't mind waiting but were told our table was actually ready. We were pointed in the direction of the table (we booked for two and it was a table for 6 ... which meant a man drinking in the bar decided to sit with us). Good job we got drinks before sitting down because 30 minutes past .. the lady serving tables went out of her way to ignore us and no one approached us. I went to the bar to get another drink and enquire whether it was a self service and order at the bar or table service. I was told it was table service and the waitress would be over to us. She wasn't. A further 5 or so minutes later I saw her come out of the kitchen and go to walk back in .. yet again ignoring us when I got her attention and asked if it would be okay to order food. To which I got a response of a surely 'Yeah, what do you want'

The food was good but at this point I was so hungry We didn't get a check back We didn't get asked about desert or even more drinks

Overall the place was quiet, there were enough staff on - the service was awful and its a shame as it was my birthday meal. Luckily a lot of other bars around Oxford are wonderful and our hotel had two great bars.

If your planning a special occasion meal or even just dinner with friends I could not recommend not going here enough
