First time I’ve been in after it’s renovation. Not overly busy but that suited us just fine. Upstairs is a function space and the back of downstairs was cordoned off. The English bartender was friendly and chatty and the beer was cold! Sweet potato fries were a decent serving size.
The Oxford scholar has been the place where RMIT students and CBD corporates have been coming for years. Recently they have had a revamp and the décor creates a new and exciting place for drinks and good food. The Oxford Scholar Hotel – salmon poke bowl. The poke bowl had a beautifully cooked piece of salmon with a soy glaze served over soba noodles with a sesame dressing. There was a dollop of creamy avocado and lots of colourful pickled vegetables mixed through.
The Oxford Scholar has re-opened its doors to the public after an extensive face-lift. It’s a new chapter for this treasured RMIT landmark which now boasts a significant increase in capacity with the modernised ground floor now licensed for up to 280 patrons. The Oxford Scholar’s history stretches back to the 19th century: its site at the northern-end of Swanston St has existed since the Victorian gold rush when it was surrounded by tobacco warehouses and popular with local workers before booming as a student watering hole in the 1960s.
Chill bar x eatery on swanston.The place is pretty nice, with dim lighting and boozy, chatty vibe. Was here for an event so I got to try some of their small dishes.Their salmon poke bowl is actually yummy, I like all the components put in the bowl, worked really well together. Just tad bit salty.The cola braised beef burger was yummy, soft brioche bun with juicy meat, it was a flavour punch!Pulled pork tortilla was quite good as well, flavor was there, though there wereKatafi King Prawns was good as well, the shrimp size was quite big and had a nice bite, the nets surrounding it were crispy though it was just tad bit oily. The sauce was a good condiment!Lastly, the cripsy tofu curry was alright. The curry was definitely lacking flavour and any spice, and there was no tofu in my bowl so I couldn’t really say much.Overall I think the place has pretty solid food offerings with good vibe, PS RMIT associates get 15% discount!( follow for more!✨)ｘｘ，ｊｏｅｌｌｅ
