Birthday Party · 75 guests · June 2025
Venue was perfect - canapés and personalised cocktails very well received by guests! Thea was incredibly helpful and responsive - as were all the staff on the night. Central location, great interior design. The best evening here - thank you!
The prices of the drinks generally were on the premium end - particularly with the 12.5% service charge - received a few grumbles about this on the night from guests but to be expected in that location and was at least a minimum spend than a flat hire fee.

We celebrated our engagement party here and have had nothing but amazing feedback from our guests! We loved that the venue had a private entrance, bar and cloakroom/toilet facilities. In addition, the decor is great and we were able to bring additional decorations to set up the space well in advance of guest arrival. Thea, Sergio, Nonzo and the team were excellent and really useful at guiding us on what would work best, both in the lead up and on the day. We had free rein of the music controls and were able to name some themed cocktails, which our guests loved. Would definitely recommend - thanks so much for an amazing night!
Drinks are quite pricey and there is a non-discretionary service charge added to all orders of food and beverages (eg draught beers were between £8-£8.50 and an aperol spritz was almost £15 after SC). Wasn’t a massive issue as we pre-warned our guests, but something to be mindful of.

Had an amazing time at The Oxford Market. Thea, Sergio and the bar staff were so helpful in getting everything sorted for my event - a really smooth experience from start to finish. Highly recommend!
Drinks are a bit pricey but it helps meet the spend for a cash bar!

Yes! Here's what guests who have hosted their birthdays at this venue say:

  • Lucy A. rated it 4.8/5 stars
    'We had such a lovely 25th birthday! Most importantly, the staff were so lovely and accommodating on the night, and Thea was so great helping us organise in the weeks up to the events. The sound system was great, they even brought out the smoke machine when people were dancing. They allowed us to do some personalised cocktails, which our guests really loved! Thank you so much to everyone working that night and Thea, would love to host an event here again!'
  • Liam A. rated it 4.9/5 stars
    'I had the most amazing evening with The Oxford Market (Ground Floor Bar) to celebrate my 30th Birthday. Sergio was a fantastic host and the bar staff and bouncers were all very good as well. Thea was a great rep and was very helpful with the booking process as well as responsive to all the questions I had ahead of the evening. The venue is very nice room with cool quirky decorations and they also let you use the beer garden area (which is shared with other people). The food portion sizes were a lot bigger than you'd think if you are considering catering. Music is flexible, we opted to play our own music but DJ hire was also allowed.'
  • Martin M. rated it 5/5 stars
    'A really nice space in an excellent location. Very well set up and organised - Thea's very responsive and made things straightforward, and they've clearly had a lot of practice hosting birthday parties. The staff at the bar made us feel really welcome - Emanuel and Sergio were very friendly and helpful and made sure the night went well. The cocktails are great and the canapés were delicious. Overall it was a great night.'

  • Hanna D. rated it 5/5 stars
    'We had a great time at The Oxford Market for our company Christmas party. Thea was super accommodating and made the process feel so stress free and easy to organise. Emmanuel was the manager on the night and he was so great - easy to talk to - had all the answers and even advised us on some options to help with making the night that much better. Overall we highly recommend!'
