Mood Music Cocktail Bar, a George Street nightspot, is to be forced to close following the revocation of its licence by the Oxford City Council.
A hearing was called after a woman was attacked with a broken bottle in the venue two weeks ago, suffering injuries to her face. The injuries required hospitalisation and stitches.
The incident occurred despite the fact that Mood agreed to switch from glass to plastic in March to conform to licensing conditions. The agreed changes were never enacted and the licence holder, Adel El-Baghdadi, was not notified. It is thought that the mistake occurred due to a managerial changeover.
Since its last review 32 reported crimes have taken place at the club, including numerous thefts and nine assaults.
Mr El-Baghdadi is appealing the decision. The Cocktail Bar will remain open until the appeal finishes.
