Excellent venue for meeting purpose and great location. Rebecca from Tagvenue was amazing - always keeping me updated with really efficient communication. Highly recommended
Food was hot and delicious.
Antonia was super easy to talk to and answered any questions we had about the event.
We found the whole experience with the team at The Oxford Scholar exceptional. Communication was prompt, professional and engaging, we were able to view beforehand and discuss the finer details, the food and service on the day was excellent and they were very accommodating to some additional requests. We'll be booking with them again!
