I usually love coming to the Growler and have had good experiences in the past. However, I went…read morethere after my graduation with my family and had such a horrible time. The bartender did not look at us once and when my brother asked if he had any recommendations or a favorite, he responded "no" without even looking up. When I asked for 2 drinks I was told they were out which was fine, but then I asked what they did have and was told, "look if it has a cap on it". The Growler was something my family was looking forward to since they were coming for the first time from Connecticut and had heard good things, but the bartender made it seem like we weren't wanted there. I did not end up getting a drink which was an unfortunate way to end my graduation night.

I've been to The Growler quite a few times and have always had a great experience. I decided to swing in this week while back in town and it really held up. The staff working the bar are consistently awesome - they're personable, quick, and extremely helpful. The beer is always well poured. Their food is always great for the atmosphere. Some places tend to get lazy when serving bar food, but that is not the case for The Growler. There is so much seating available if you are planning to hang out with friends, and they have a few tvs and games available for use. It is somehow also a great spot for working - I have typed many, many papers here and have somehow never been too distracted despite this place often being filled with groups of people.

We came in to taste the local flair while on an Ole Miss college tour. The wait was lengthy however you could still stand at the bar and have a drink while you waited. We ordered a round of beers and checked out the place and the people. The bartenders were very nice, a lot of southern hospitality in this town. We were finally seated and ordered a seafood platter and a few orders of seafood gumbo. The gumbo was absolutely delicious. Shrimp that tasted amazing and sausage with great flavor. Rice cooked perfectly and overall a great dish. The seafood platter in my opinion, not worth the money. It was okay, but nothing spectacular. Coming from vegas the bar is set high on dining out as we have the best of the best in our city when it comes to places to eat. While this was a fun place to hang, it's expensive for a college town. The ahi tuna nachos at this place are absolutely amazing and a must try. Best thing I ate there. A ton of Ahi and a huge portion. There was more ahi than chips. Clean place, fair service at the tables, waitress delivered 4 entrees and saint bring the 11 year olds dinner. He sat for 15 minutes and I had to hunt her down to ask where the kids food was. Serve everyone at the same time, it's rude not to. This was a big annoyance for me as the child sits with no food while everyone else is eating for 15-20 minutes.

It started with asking the hostess if we could sit in the main area and she sat us in the bar section saying there were no booths available yet you could clearly see otherwise. The Death Valley drink, which is a spinoff of a Long Island felt watered down and my husband's Old Fashioned was sub par. For an appetizer we got the Gator bites, which were just ok and the boneless wings which were not good at all. We tried the quesadillas hoping to recover the meal but it unfortunately was not good either. And the Red Beans and Rice...no. Other than the TV's everywhere, it additionally lacked ambiance and vibe. Definitely not returning.

I was shocked to say the least. So we ordered a different item. The wings came out cold and we got one set of wings that we didn't order and it took forever to get the replacement Sadly they were one of the ONLY places In Oxford open after 10:30 on a Friday night or we would have gladly gone ANYWHERE else Beware this BWW def a disappointment
