The Perfect Week In Oxford

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Miami (OH) chapter.

Ladies, there are only two weeks left in the semester! It is time to complete The Perfect Week at the uptown bars. The challenge is to go out every night (including Sunday), but if completed – totally worth it. We recommend getting one drink per actitivity… Remember, it’s a marathon, not a sprint. Here’s all you have to do:

Sunday

Sunday Funday @ Pachinkos 

This is one of the only bars open in Oxford on Sunday’s. They have a list of varying drink specials on the black chalkboard to the left of the bar. 

Monday

Trivia Night @ Side Bar & Karaoke Night @ Brick

Trivia Night at Side starts at 10:30 – be there on time so you don’t miss a round! Once you’re done testing your trivia knowledge, head across the street to Brick Street. They offer a book of song selections that you can sign up for starting at 9:30. They typically stop taking requests at midnight, so move quickly after trivia!

Tuesday

Tini Tuesday @ MIA & 90’s Night @ Brick Street

MIA serves $5 Martinis every Tuesday. This is one of the swankiest bars in town and most upperclassmen frequent here. 90’s night is the perfect night to dance to some Back Street Boys with your galpals – so bring your dancing shoes. 

Wednesday

Wine Wednesday @ O’Pub, Live Music @ 45 East, & Country Night @ Brick Street

Every Wednesday, O’Pub hosts wine night where you can get bottles of wine at discounted prices. If you’re not interested in the hangover from wine, head over to 45 East where students perform live music. Brick Street has country night which some people prefer because there are significantly less people packed into Brick than on Tuesday nights. 

Thursday

Hot Dog Happy Hour @ New Bar & Pitchers @ 45 East

Happy Hour (5PM-8PM) at New is many people’s favorite day – you can get $2 double-wells and free hot dogs! Additionally, 45 East has $6 Mind Probe pitchers on Thursday nights. Many underclassmen LOVE to go to pitchers, but it’s rare that you see juniors or seniors there. 

Friday

Pitchers @ Side 

Side Bar offers $2.50 Pitchers of Natty which is always a great deal! 

Saturday

Start the Clock @ Corner Bar, Beat the Clock @ Brick Street, Broken Clock @ Side

Whether you are craving some mimosas & pancakes from corner bar or you want to watch a game and drink a pitcher of beer, saturday is the BEST day. Day drinking activities start around 9AM and continue throughout the entire day. Make sure you drink responsibly and incorporate water regularly while attending all of these events so you don’t wake up looking like this.
