Round Table On The Square

Met up here to grab a beer or two with some friends from home. It seemed like a pretty fun place with an outdoor area/bar as well as indoor area/bar and upstairs balcony. Looked like the place to go for juniors/seniors at Ole Miss. Beer prices were also pretty good -- $2 for a miller. The one-star, however, is because of a shady business practice that apparently is quite common in Oxford these days. Whenever I pay with a card, every bar I have ever been to asks me whether I want to close the tab or leave it open. However, the bartender did not mention it, and I forgot about it as well. I really think if the customer doesn't tell you to close/open the tab, then the default should be to CLOSE it. I found out the next day that after only one $2 beer, they added a $10 tip for themselves. I would have tipped anyway (maybe not something so ridiculous for opening a single bottle of beer), but the fact that this is common practice as a way to swindle your customers out of more money is absolutely shameful. I would have called to complain, but $10 isn't worth it, and I didn't keep my receipt anyway. If you find yourself here, or at most other bars on the Square, do yourself a favor and pay with cash.

Terrible! I am in oxford for almost every game. I have a house here and I went to this bar to have a drink while I was waiting on dinner reservations. The bar tender was awful! He has no respect for anyone and sat on his phone the entire time. I couldn't even get a drink because he was too busy texting.
