Review of The Carling Academy
20 May 08, 12:35
Fabulous 
Love it here. No queue to get in despite gig being sold out. No probs getting drinks, not a bad price either. The bouncers won't let anyone out for a fag though which seemed to cause some arguments between them and some smokers but all the staff seemed really friendly.

Lethal Mai Tais
Was surprisingly empty at 10pm on a Friday night so no wrries about finding tables or queueing at the bar!
The cocktails were fabulous but absolutely lethal, I dread to think how much alcohol was in them! Try the Mai Tais - love them!
The staff are really friendly and there is a really lovely relaxed atmosphere here

Review of All Bar One
12 May 08, 19:18
Full of hotties!
This is the best place to head to start a night in Oxford. Not only can you get an extensive range of beers and wines but the men are usually the good looking type!
Not the cheapest place in Oxford but not extortionate either. The place is massive so usually plenty of seating
well worth a visit

Review of Oxford Covered Market
12 May 08, 19:10
a great place to get lost
The covered market is a fabulous chocolate box market of delights. You will find everything here form the best cookies in town (Ben's cookies) to fabulous shoes and boots (The Oxford Boot Store), Haymans fisheries sells the freshest fish in town and Micky Feller is your man for some good beef on the bone!
Deffo worth a visit around Christmas as they hang the best decs in between all the turkeys hanging from the ceiling!

Review of O'Neill's
30 Apr 08, 19:44
Love it!
This is a fab place for a night out, few quiet drinks or a footy match. They have loads of screens for watching sport and it is usually a brilliant atmosphere.
Gets really busy on a Friday/Saturday night and can take a while to get served at the bar.

Review of King's Arms
30 Apr 08, 19:37
beautiful in the Sun
This is a great pub to go to in the Summer to sit outside. Although you are sitting on the pavement it is the perfect place to people watch. Located right in the heart of university buildings it is a stunning location.

Review of Trout Inn
30 Apr 08, 19:29
stunning food
Went here for a birthday meal for a family member and the food was stunning. We all had steak, all cooked differently and with different sauces and different side dishes (which would confuse many) but we all go exactly what we ordered.
Great wine list and lovely relaxed atmosphere
Must book though!

Review of Rectory Lane Service Centre
30 Apr 08, 19:25
highly recommended
The guys here are fabulous. When some plonker drove into my car these guys were brilliant at sorting it out. They did all the liasing with my insurance company and billed them directly. Did a few other bits of work for me at the same time - they made sure they explained to me what needed doing and it wasn't as expensive as I had been quoted elsewhere.
They provided me with a free courtesty car too (as my insurance company wouldnt blooming pay) and even filled it with petrol before letting me take it
Brilliant

Review of Ben's Cookies
30 Apr 08, 19:10
MMMMMMM TASTY
This place serves the greatest cookies in the world.....ever....FACT
Much better than Millies cookies, they are baked all day so are usually still a little warm from being baked
Great range of flavours
worth the queue

Review of Copa Of Oxford
30 Apr 08, 18:54
great atmosphere
This is a fantastic party night out at the weekend and a great place for a chilled out drink during the week. Gets busy at the weekend but always a great atmosphere and fab mix of people. The drinks can seem a little bit expensive but the service is usually quick

Review of The Fishes
30 Apr 08, 18:50
not your usual local
This is more of a restaurant now than it used to be. With an extensive menu and great range of drinks this places gets really really busy so would reccommend booking. The deli boards are great to share with pals over a bottle of wine or if you fancy something more filling the burger made with horse radish is amazing.

Review of Bilash Tandoori Restaurant
26 Apr 08, 07:34
Excellent food
This is a perfect place to a meal out. There is plenty of parking near by and the restaurant is beautifully decorated. There is a wide range of choice on the menu and the food is always tasty. This is a little more expensive than other Indian restaurants nearby but it is well worth a visit. They also do takeaway

Review of Klute Disco
23 Apr 08, 21:23
Fabulously BAD!
This club is deservedly the second worst club in Europe (As voted by FHM). HOWEVER it is also brilliant. Full of Durham uni students (which is great if you are a Durham uni Student) it is certainly an experience. The owner is often the door man and you can play double or quits to get in meaning you can often get in for free. You will stick to the dancefloor it is so covered in Snaky B and WKD and Chesney Hawkes is played practically every other song. A perfect student night out

Review of Palmer Wines
23 Apr 08, 21:09
Cheers!
The guys than run this place are fabulous! They are on a par with supermarket prices, have a wider range and if you go there enough they will remember what you want and sometimes have it ready chilled for you (if it needs chilling).

Review of Vine Inn
23 Apr 08, 21:00
Great little local
Great local pub, friendly staff and wide range of drinks available. Beautiful garden in a central village location, perfect place to take the kids in Summer as there is a small adventure playground in the garden.
Excellent restaurant too.

Review of Pizzeria Mama Mia
23 Apr 08, 20:54
LOVE IT
This is my favorite restaurant of all time. It is a family run place with the tastiest pizza this side of Rome! Great place for kids too, try to order the table by the window into the kitchen and if you catch thier eye the chefs will start throwing the pizza bases and making a bit of a show! Great value for money. Does get really really busy so make sure you book - however if the weather is good get your pizza to take away and eat it on the way home! Seating outside with heaters too

Review of Dogma
23 Apr 08, 20:44
perfect chill out on a Sunday night
Only been on a Sunday night but it was really relaxing on the big Leather sofas. The Decor is really fab and I reckon on a Friday or Sat night it is a wicked place to meet up with a bunch of pals!
Great cocktails!

Review of Wagamama
23 Apr 08, 20:32
always a fave
Great place to eat. Fairly healthy and the food is always tasty and fresh. Can get busy so be aware you will be sharing your table, may be squashed in and queue out the door but wel worth it. Keep an eye on thier website and in the local press for vouchers too - regularly do buy one get one free on main courses

Review of Zero Degrees Bar
23 Apr 08, 20:27
Brilliant night out
Fantastic place to meet mates or have a date! Great atmosphere, wide range of drinks - both wines and the beer brewed in thier own micro brewery.
The restuarant is also highly recommended - the Pizza is to die for

Review of Saks Hair & Beauty
23 Apr 08, 20:21
...coz I'm worth it!
I love this hairdressers! Firstly the hairdressers don't look down thier noses at you like so many psoh salons and secondly the atmosphere is so relaxing! I'd say the prices are fair and it is well worth it. If you can stretch to the £60 cost to see the salon director then do it - not only is he gorgeous but he gives the best hair cuts!
I'm told they are planning a refurb which will make it even better! My hair is getting shorter and shorter as I love going there

can teach the unteachable
I was dumped by my first driving instructor and deemed unteachable! Bob to the rescue! Fantastic teacher - patient and seemingly unscarable! Teaches in either 1 or 2 hour lessons (plus a 4 hour lesson if you take the pass plus). I passed my test first time with only 2 minor faults! Highly recommended!

Review of Thirst

great on flare night
If you can catch this bar on the night of the cocktail flaring competitions it is an absolute blast!
Great cocktails and fabulous atmosphere - often dj's placing an ecclectic mix of music

Review of Pets On Parade
23 Apr 08, 11:59
Everything for your pet
Pets on Parade is the perfect place to go if you need anything for your pet. The staff are helpful and will always do their best to help with what you need. Most things are kept in stock but if they don't have it they will do thier best to order it and have it in the shop a couple of days later!
