Brewery Profile

Circle and Square Brewery

A short walk behind the historic Oxford Depot, this Oxford brewery sits in a spot that connects two of the city’s familiar reference points: the Circle and the Square. For visitors, that gives it a clear sense of place without needing much explanation. Walk in expecting a local gathering room rather than a destination built around spectacle. The draw is straightforward: house-brewed beer, food substantial enough to make the stop a meal, and a setting that reflects Oxford’s social, conversational pace. In a town where bars, restaurants, bookstores, and music venues shape much of the visitor experience, Circle and Square Brewery adds a taproom-focused option to the mix.

Travelers coming through north Mississippi often look for places that feel rooted in the town, especially in Oxford, where the downtown area and university traffic bring together residents, alumni, students, and road-trippers. Regional brewery visits tend to be less about checking off rare releases and more about finding a comfortable place to try what is pouring, eat something filling, and get a feel for the local crowd. A stop here fits that pattern. The brewery’s position between two well-known parts of town makes it useful before or after time around the Square, and its combination of beer and hearty bites suits visitors who want one stop instead of separating drinks from dinner.

Because specific beer names, hours, and service details can change, the taproom is the place to confirm the day’s pours and what food is available. Visitors should expect the experience to center on draft beer and casual food rather than a formal tour or a highly structured tasting, unless the brewery is offering something special that day. Its location behind the depot is part of the visit, so it is worth checking directions rather than relying only on a quick glance at downtown. For anyone planning a broader Oxford itinerary, Circle and Square Brewery works best as a relaxed pause: close enough to the city’s better-known landmarks to be convenient, but set just apart enough to feel like its own stop.

Tucked away behind the historic Oxford Depot, Circle and Square Brewery perfectly captures the spirit of Mississippi hospitality, serving as the ideal gathering spot nestled halfway between the town's famous Circle and the Square. This local favorite pairs expertly crafted brews with hearty, satisfying bites, making it the essential stop for great company and authentic Southern flavor.
