We are back to Thirst! When you spend more time at Thirst than in an University lecture and the bouncers call you "Team America" (F Yeah!), it is going down Oxford style!

Going to museums and pubs is part of the experience but the next natural progression is to go to clubbing. Don't be afraid. In the beginning of the week the music was wacky but mostly American music. Play Hip hop and rap! This is what we told the DJ every night but skip the new joints and play the 90s hip hop music from California. East coast is the least coast and west coast is the best coast. And yes finally by the last night in Oxford some California love!

UK Review:

This is a fun place to chill with your mates and get a proper drink. There is a dance floor for standing, indoor and outdoor bar area. More popular new music is played but might not be dance able with some repetition.

American Review: Turn it up! Ladies you will love this place. Straight up sausagefest most nights. The ratio is not in the favor for guys. I suggest bring your own group to party with. The European women some were okay but I prefer American. Also if you think British accents are sexy it goes both ways. Ladies and gentlemen love the American accent. Also another pro for ladies this is like a middle school dance. Guys dance with guys and women with women. Don't be surprised if you don't get hit on every second like in Hollywood but watch out for the EU men then might be a bit over aggressive. Also, I mean this in a nice way. The dancing here is strange so you will look like Usher no matter how you dance so get drunk and dance. Most locals leave the dance area when we started dancing. Odd but not as strange everyone hitting the dance floor to drink and stare from the corner. Two words "Fish Bowl". This is the solution for up to 8 people if you want a guaranteed party starter. It will bring the shy friends to the dance floor.

Cheers! Thirst is not our first choice or last choice but it's the...

The most shocking and awful place a person could dream of going to . Firstly, there are a bunch of persistent, thirsty and greasy men slobbering over anything that has a pulse. Secondly there is no space to move or enjoy yourself on the dance floor. The music is not mixed well at all and play the most overplayed tunes to date on any radio station. Thirdly the staff are arrogant, rude and think they are gods gift to this world- I accidentally spilt the ice that was in my glass over the counter and to my amazement the bar staff demanded that I clean up the ice! When I refused he told the bouncer to kick me out the club. Please save your money and invest it elsewhere. If I could give a zero star rating I would....

The staff were incredible tonight. I had a great time chatting with friendly patrons until a certain point. I was treated terribly by two particular patrons and I can't even begin to describe how amazing the Thirst staff were. Not only did the security staff help to clear away the trouble, but David at the bar did his absolute best to cheer me up after the negative encounter. The bar staff served me a delicious low alcohol drink and helped me to calm down afterwards. You guys are amazing, I hope you know what good work you do when people are struggling. You are the most supportive team I could ever ask for and I have never been more grateful. Please continue...

This was a great bar for clubbing, with classic radio hits playing across the speakers! Lighting provides a warm feel and counter is stylish, outdoor seating area is nice to relax for any time out. I had a Vodka with Coke and prices are quite steep including entry, clubbing was fun although some people are too reserved when you dance near them.

Excellent bar with great people to talk to. There are quite a few pubs and clubs in Oxford. These guys however actually know how to make an amazing cocktail and they're all very friendly. I went probably about 10 times and thoroughly enjoyed the place every night of the week. From customers to staff, everyone was very nice. I highly recommend!
