An amazing story about the wonderful Oxford Market: My daughter's phone was stolen yesterday on Oxford Street (not an uncommon occurrence in London these days, alas), but -- as we later figured out -- the thief seemed to have realized it was a rather outdated iPhone and discarded it in an alleyway. My daughter was leaving that night to travel overseas, but reported that the phone had started pinging its location. I scoured the area the next morning but found nothing. On a hunch, I inquired at The Oxford Market to see if anyone had turned in an iPhone. It turned out that a deliveryman had noticed the phone in the alley. The restaurant's manager not only took possession of the phone in case someone came looking for it, but also charged it so that it would be able to send out its location (these pings aren't very specific, but they were enough to lead me, eventually, to the right place). The Oxford Market isn't just a great restaurant, it's run by genuinely thoughtful, helpful people!

We hired the private space downstairs for my wife's 40th Birthday. We had around 115 guests who all complemented the venue which looked amazing and was great as both a cocktail reception at the start of the event and transformed into a club night later in the evening. The whole team, and in particular the duty manager on the night, were very attentive and ensured the whole event ran smoothly. We had a plenty of complements on the drinks from the bar, where we had an option to design our own cocktails for the evening as well as the beer section. We used our own DJ - who complemented the sound system and the venue had great lighting throughout the night which really helped with the atmosphere. Overall everyone had an amazing evening and I would highly recommend this venue for a private event!

This is a difficult review to write because, honesty? I don’t want anyone else finding this place. It’s exceptional! My partner and I frequently visit London’s West End and, for years (many, many years) we’ve struggled to find somewhere decent for lunch. Today we enjoyed probably the finest calamari in London, and we DEFINITELY enjoyed THE BEST endive salad on the planet. Good sate chicken, tasty fries, attentive friendly service, bang on modern ‘old bijou’ decor, fantastic bar… we will be regulars here for sure.

My partner and I hosted our engagement drinks in the private basement bar at The Oxford Market, and cannot praise it highly enough. We had such good feedback from all our guests on the food, drinks and venue space. Sergio and his team, who were looking after us on the night did an incredible job. All of our, and our guests' needs were met with kindness and attentiveness. Especially when it came to food and allergies. The space is perfect for a private party. The location is terrific being a stone throw away from oxford circus station. There is a lot of space in the venue for both standing and seating and the added benefit of having private bathroom facilities and a cloakroom exclusively for you and your guests. The option to customise the names of their tasty cocktails was also a great hit with the guests - and made the event more personal to us. We are looking forward to going back soon! Definitely a new front runner when considering party venues in the future (for us and our guests!). Thank you so much to Craig, Jamie, Sergio, Max, Kat & Emmanuel and the rest of the fantastic team who made our event so perfect!

We've got the worst situation in this PUB. We was 5 guys and ordered 5 pints of beer. After 10 min waitress said something is wrong with a line beer. We waited 10 min more to sort it out. Half of menu was unavailable. Food it's a bit expensive. We've got 5 pinta of Amstel at the end and was without sparkling and taste. At the end we paid £99 for 5 pints of beer, 3 portions of fries ans 2 portions of haloumi. I was very unhappy . From £99, £12 was for Service charge, service charge for what? For waiting 20 min for a pint of beer and no food at that moment? Please in the future, be little bit profesional, check beer lines before customer order, prepare ingredients in the kitchen,try tl be most respectful to customers. To be honest, this PUB was the worst I ever been. Wake up please, is Central of London.

The manager Craig is so lovely, extremely accommodating and helpful! On the run up to the surprise party, Craig kept the communication going and was so supportive! We had a call on the day of the event to make sure all was well on our end too. The surprise was great, all the staff were extremely hospitable and friendly ensuring myself and our guests had a great experience! Both the ground floor and the basement are beautiful, they don’t need much decoration at all, but you can hire some of you want! The canapés were delicious and there was enough food for everyone!

Celebrated my 30th there last week and hired out the ground floor. Really helpful staff, wonderful atmosphere/decor and great drinks. Craig from the booking & events team was very organised and diligent. Reasonable minimum spend of £1.5K till 1am for the ground floor. Annoyingly only found out after paying the deposit that the closing time for the ground floor is 1am, not 2am, as they exceeded the council limit of how many times they can open till 2am. I decided to proceed anyway. Other than that, would definitely recommend.

I was looking for a venue in central London to stage my 50th in October 2023. My criteria was a truly private space (i.e. no 'roped off' corner sham); a late licence as standard (i.e. no need to apply for an extension and spend more); space to dance; full control of the music; convenient location; sensible price. In London you can pay a small fortune for not a lot in these kinds of situations and, after looking at more than 2 dozen options, thought I would need to compromise. And then I found The Oxford Market and walked downstairs into the function room. I loved it! It looks like a nightclub in miniature and has great lighting, seating and bags of character. This is a true hidden gem in central London. The space is fully private with event guests arriving via a separate door in the alley alongside the building. It is literally 2 minutes walk from Oxford Circus. The hire cost entails what I consider a fair minimum spend - no additional, too often extortionate, hire charge plus minimum spend. Just one minimum spend to reach, with booking secured via a reasonable deposit which has just been refunded to me. I held my event on a Friday and this meant the venue was open until 02:00 - perfect. DJ decks were available to use with a great sound system and plenty of space for dancing. I had about 55 guests and the room could hold more, but for me it was perfect. In the run-up I was looked after really well by the Events Manager Craig and landlord Jamie, who helped with advice and answering questions, including about food. The event menu for small plates and finger food is reasonably priced. Entry was restricted via my guest list with a member of staff on the door. All staff covering the event were fantastic - really polite, positive and helpful especially when I wanted to give my welcome and thank you address. We had a great, great night. I am very glad I came across The Oxford Market and therefore can't recommend this venue highly enough.

Just in for drinks. Lucky enough to get a table. Very attentive staff with lots of offers of getting more drinks. Didn't feel too pressured when we said no but slight feeling that they wanted the table back which was fair really.

I totally recommend this venue. I hired the basement bar last weekend for my birthday party with 90 guests. It was perfect in every way. The bar manager Craig was extremely helpful and the staff did everything they could to make it work for me on the night. It was a great night! Alcoves for talking and dance floor and lighting for dancing. Fantastic time had by all.

Popped in as I used to visit regularly. Charged £8.21 for a guinness as it needed to have a 12.5% surcharge added to compensate the poor bar staff for letting it settle and then brining it 2 meters over to where they'd told me to sit.

We hired out The Oxford Market's basement bar last weekend for a private Graduation Party with around 60 people attending. We had the venue from 5pm-2am and used their decks, with our own DJs - their sound system was great and the lighting was ace. It's a brilliant venue, we all had a blast! The staff were fantastic and the food was lovely. It was a perfect night - will be back! Thanks.

Hired the entire ground floor for a surprise birthday party. The whole team were amazing, from the events guys, to the manager, bartneders, kitchen and door staff!! They helped make it a night to remember. Food was delicious and the option to personalise the cocktail menu was super cute too. Loved it! Thank you again!! 10/10 will be going back.

We hired the Basement Bar for a 30th birthday and had the best time!! ALL the staff on the night were amazing, super fun and friendly. Max was fantastic at coordinating everything, we had a few timing changes on the night and Max was very accommodating and made sure everything ran smoothly! Craig has been brilliant throughout the whole the booking process and we got to make our own signature drinks menu with was a great touch. The food was 10/10 and the venue offered so many extras that I haven't seen anywhere else. Including a private entrance, DJ equipment, smoke machine, private cloakroom and the fully customisable layout. I would recommend the venue to everyone and I'll definitely be returning for some after work drinks!

I hired the basement space of the venue for a surprise party for my fiance's 30th birthday! The venue were so accommodating from the moment I contacted them, they helped me through the booking process and offered features such as a special cocktail menu and flexible guestlist. On the day, they then blew it out the water! I wasn't available on the day to coordinate everything, they helped figure things out with my vendors like decor and photobooth and supported my event coordinator and friends in setting everything up! When my fiance arrived, they helped make sure the surprise went well and accommodated all his needs! Special shout out to Max and the rest of the team! Y'all hold a special place in my heart for all your help! We had an amazing night!

Hired the ground floor here for my 40th and had a brilliant evening. Craig and Jamie were great in the build up with organising and answering all my questions and Maddy and the team were brilliant on the night. Food was great and the cocktails too. I haf around 55 people but it's the perfect space for anywhere between 30-70 people. I really recommend the ground floor as it gives easy access to the terrace outside for anyone that wants fresh air or to smoke and they don't feel far away from the party at all. You can bring your DJ or take one of their recommendations and a very reasonable minimum spend. Great night, really recommend it. Cheers.

When in London we return time and time again to this fabulous restaurant. The food is to die for. We always invite our friends to join us, and they say the same the, it's the best they've had for a long time. The service, food, atmosphere and drinks are fantastic. Thoroughly recommend a visit. And it's in a great spot.

Last evening we went as a group friends 9 in total to the restaurant. The quality and the quantity of food was poor. When we complained to one of the member of stuff, asking to see the manager or chef, no one came to us to explain or apologise! Definitely Won't go back ever again. ☹

El diseño del café era bastante algo. ¡Las mejores notas! Buen comienzo para el día. El personal es amable y, como se puede ver en el diseño, se ocupan de su café.
