This place is incredible. Everyone should open their eyes to what this place is. It's a place will college kids act like college kids. If you think this place caters to the professional crowd, your a moron. I bet they have $20,000 nights. So complaints like 'its crowd' or 'its dirty' are hilarious God bless brick street!! read more

Left us outside in -13 degrees I'm going to sue... I'm freezing and I'm of age .... Please let me in read more

great BUT they are VERY inconsistant! Brickon is supposed to be at 5 and when it doesn't arrive at said time and you ask for information they respond with "I don't know" and basically say just but drinks, wait, and find out. absolutely RIDICULOUS !!!!!! read more

Great bar in Oxford, if you know the bartenders you'll get served immediately if you don't you'll wait some time. Fun themed nights

Favorite place to have fun in the big Miami U. Favorite place to get drunk with my frat bros. In my freshman year I met a 30yo cougar who gave me the night of my life. After we had drink and food here that was actually delectable eats, we went to her place on high st and had a good time. If you are trying to find a soulmate or even just a good time with a lady. Brick street is the place to go! Excellent service I like the bartenders read more

This is worst bar in America. If you're looking for a good drink and a good time skip Brick. Staff sucks, crowd sucks, drinks suck.

Great venue for concerts and big sporting events.

Aye if y'all are coming here to have a great time with your friends, then come here, if u tryna have a nice dinner and drink, go somewhere else, this joint always rocking read more

After sitting outside of the bar for hours for a concert, the bartender cussed at me. They allowed for people to jump the fence and quit the line without attending to other customers. read more

Brick Street Bar - two men sitting on a railing - Music Venues Near Me - Oxford, Ohio

Brick Street Bar is great for what it is- a college bar. Don't come here expecting to have a good meal and get great drinks The bartenders only know the most basic of cocktails, they don't have limes- only fake lime juice, the only food is the free chicken they pass out on Saturday afternoons so kids don't pass out, and it's going to be full of drunk kids, that throw their drinks on the ground. Keeping this in mind there are valid criticisms that don't relate to the cleanliness or the crowds. The cover charge to get in for 21+-year-olds is pretty ridiculous, but not as ridiculous as the amount of under 21-year-olds you see that get in through the 21 line. They used to be more concerned about it but it's obvious they just don't care as much. Beat the clock is a fun excuse to drink early on the weekends, but the Natty Light is VERY WATERED DOWN which takes away from the deal (it's already Natty, you're still profiting Will). The atmosphere can be really fun when there's a good DJ, although the regular DJ they have there is pretty mid. read more

When I was at Miami this was my personal favorite bar. The drinks were good but overpriced just like any other college bar. The atmosphere was fantastic when going with friends. Going as alumni is a totally different story. It was so unpleasant, I knew nobody there, and I could see why people hate this place lol. But Brick Street will always have a place in my heart. Love & honor. read more

I had respect for brick until I found out that they dilute their well liquor by at least half at beat on Saturdays. Nice one will.

At Brick Street you never know what your gonna get, that is if you can even get in. The girls at the door have the authority to judge you based off of looks. My boyfriend wasn't allowed in tonight because the girl at the door 'didn't believe he went to college' even though he showed his drivers license and his college ID, but she denied him saying "it could be fake, i had a fake college ID.....". i believe she was being racist, and judging him off his looks. his ID was real and his other friends got in behind him showing the same student ID's from UC. Something needs to be done about this and have a better system at the door, not discriminating off of looks. read more

The Drink Exchange is the coolest thing ever. I don't write reviews, this is my first. But I had to after seeing this thing in action. The prices change every few minutes, it's really fun. Other parts of the bar not so much. I'll be back though. read more

Unbelievable college bar. Drinks are a bit over priced so make sure you bring your own flask.

Brick Street is the worst bar in Oxford. No respect to it's patrons. Will make people wait outside for hours on end, without giving out any information as to when they will let you in. Lots of underage kids being over-served. Overall a horrible experience. If I could give them 0 stars I would. read more

Oh, First Run (this place will always be known as First Run to me). You get two stars for memories alone. You were there for me when I first discovered Amaretto Sours ten years ago and needed a place that wouldn't judge me because just because of the inconvenience of being underage. You embraced me, my freshman "go-get-em" pants and my backless shirts with open arms. You provided me and my fellow freshmen with man candy that wasn't the least bit interested in us. Yes, I frequented this place a lot when I was 19, and no, I never let a little thing like two gigantic X's on my hands get in the way of enjoying a girly drink or six. I don't know whether theyl've upped the security or what... actually, I don't know much about First Run anymore at all, because the last time I went there, I was only 22 and felt really, really old. After about 5 minutes of being gratuitously felt up on the dance floor, I found a place to sit at the bar and stayed there the rest of the night. I did eat lunch there about six months ago and the service was really, really bad. The food was okay. I think I got a tomato and mozzarella sandwich. But I would imagine the lunch scene is not why you're reading this review. read more

This place is horrible. We went to see a national country act and it was a cluster frack from the get go. We had our tickets at Will Call. No will call window at the bar, called the bar, the girl tells us to come inside for tickets. We go to the door and the cheesy bouncer won't let us in. I told him we called and were told to come in for our tickets. He asked the manager and she finally let us in. Then we stood in line for half an hour. Once inside I tried to order a Sam Adams beer. Sorry, the Sam Adams isn't cold, someone forgot to stock the beer cooler. I would figure if you have a sold out crowd, you have plenty of different brands of ice cold beer. I guess since I wasn't drinking Bud light I was SOL. Finally after two hours into the show, I got a cold Sam Adams. There was no room to sit anywhere, the place was overcrowded, it was overrun with underage kids who were able to buy alcohol at the bar without presenting any type of ID. Plenty of drunk teenagers falling down, throwing up, and passing out. Security was there but nonreactive. There was an ongoing domestic dispute between a boyfriend & girlfriend that was ignored by security. The urinals in the men's room for clogged up and leaking. It was about an inch of urine on the floor that was being tracked out into the main area of the bar. This place is a dump and it's only a matter of time before somebody gets killed in here. read more

I am SO MAD at brick street bar and grill . Yes, they don't even deserve to be a proper noun. Tonight is a COUNTRY themed party and they don't have ANY country music. This is a disgrace to Johnny Cash and George Strait alike. I probably will come back, but I WILL NOT like it!! read more

I'm sure that this is a great place for the college kids to hang out. Dark, big dance floor, a signature Trash Can drink that looks like Windex, lots of posters which indicates it's a live music venue. We were there before the regulars showed up, which was fine as I didn't need to experience the debauchery of a dive college bar. I just wanted to shower and wash my shoes after being there. read more

No lmao. This bar is a joke. It's always dirty. The drinks barely contain alcohol. They charge both unders and overs a cover to get in. The bouncers have no clue what's going on, and management is a joke as well. Luckily for them, they have the largest venue space in town. Once people start to prefer bars over clubs, they can begin to have a great time. read more

Wow. I'm simply amazed. I've never had better drinks in my life. What a time and a half! Great place to grab drinks with your friends and get extra fun! Live laugh love brick. read more

Fuck this plAce. Ordered 2 whiskey sours and got 2 tequila cokes. Who has ever wanted that.

By far the best bar in Oxford. Definitely a good time!! 90's night on Tuesday's is like a dream come true. Make sure to go to beat the clock on Saturdays- they even give you popcorn! read more

Lots of bumping and grinding due to heavy traffic. Nice spot to get a couple drinks and post up for a while on the patio or whatever. They got a dance floor, too. The place is packed all the time, that's kind of the bummer. Also, somewhat overrated on campus and drinks can end up getting expensive read more

B STREEET! Taste some t cans you won't regret it. 21 is 21 kids! I wish i had a brick bathroom scented candle for My house. Love u will

There are no rules posted saying that you must have a student ID to enter. That being said, I went there with some friends and one didn't have a Miami ID so they didn't let the in. We said f it and all left without even stepping foot in the building. We asked for a refund because we didn't enter and the employees refused with snarky and rude comments. Shittiest customer interaction ever. Waste of time and money. read more

Formerly First Run, or as it was referred to back then, Freshmen Run. It is what it is. It can be terrible, and it can be glorious. And sometimes it can be both. It's usually what you make of it. read more

"I deal with real Ohio IDs every day and this is not one." The disgusting atmosphere found here is unparalleled. I have never been more turned off to a location in my life. I will never return to a place with such little respect for customers. Ever. read more

Where do I begin? The renovations are terrific. The extended Sky Box, chargers along the bar, extra AC, and new and improved lights/sound system/dance floor are amazing. This is by far the best bar in town. And I didn't even mention the Trashcans. read more

I try each time I return to like this place, and I just don't. As an undergrad it was a place to drink and dance and get crazy: I was 21 and sheltered in little Oxford. The staff are halfway unpleasant and grumpy, and I thought this is just how it rolls at a bar. Then I moved to Cincy and realized bartenders can be happy and fabulous and everything Brickstreet is not. The floor is always sticky, the drinks are strong but hard to swallow, and the food is mediocre. The only redeeming quality is the fun nights they have, like Monday Karaoke and Wednesday 90's Night. Nostalgia makes this place bearable to remember days gone by, but if you're looking for a drink in Oxford that you'll enjoy, head somewhere else. read more

There isn't a way to put the glory of Brick Street into words. Drinking a trash can on a crowded Saturday night is like being front row at your favorite band's concert and the random chick next to you flashes her double D's to the whole damn crowd. 10/10 would recommend going and getting hammered. Also, surprisingly great Bloody Mary's. read more

As a frequent attendee of Brick Street Bar i gotta say I love the club. As an outgoing kinda guy the dance floor on thursdays and fridays is my favorite place to be. The home of the trash can is the abode of Dov. read more

Proud Miami alum here! Brick-Street will forever be my favorite bar in Oxford. There's absolutely nothing like it to be honest. There's plenty of room to dance and have fun with friends. The patio area is also very spacious as well. Trashcans are the way to go if your ever in town. Do not ask whats in it because I still don't know lol. They are very strict about having a Miami ID nowadays. Before you could get it in with ease. And I still think its kinda lame to charge 21+ to enter in. But other than that, you won't be disappointed at all. read more

I used to go to Brick Street a lot when I was an undergraduate at Miami. It's your typical college bar where everyone goes to get sloppy and drink excessively. The place is dirty, bathrooms unkept, and staff is hit or miss. Normally a 2 star bar, but with the renovations and the ability to go up to sky box on the weekends bring it up to 3. Only recommended if you're trying to have one of those nights that know one remembers in the morning. read more

I have only been in this place when they are just serving food. Overall, the food isn't bad. I have enjoyed everything I have had and the service was terrific. I forget her name but our waitress made you feel like you were the most important thing in the world. She likes to call you sweetie and honey if I remember right, haha. read more

Staff is very stuck-up, floor is awfully sticky, and the patrons are the most annoying people I've ever come into contact with. I know it's a very busy bar, but I've been standing at the bar before and its taken up to 15 minutes for me to order a drink despite me being one of the first to approach. Not to mention the constant, trashy top 40 music that incessantly plays. I don't recommend it to anyone. read more

This bar did nothing but make me uncomfortable in every way possible. I walked in well, scooted in because there is really no where to stand and it smelled so bad. Then I am surveying the people and I noticed that every girl in that bar had on the same outfit. It takes forever to get a drink and then you have to deal with 18 year old kids who cannot handle their liquor. Brick Street very well may have been where chlamydia got it's start... read more

Pretty confused by the bad reviews. I'll set the record straight by saying that brick isn't just a bar, it's a home. Easily the best place in Oxford and probably the world. Hope to be buried here when I die. Love and honor read more

Most fun ever! Love 90s night even though I'm no where near as young and trendy than most patrons here. Would go again in a heartbeat! That being said, the floor was sticky and the booze were so-so. DJ was really good! read more
