Unlocking Hyderabad's Hidden Gem: Oxymorons, A Secret Speakeasy Behind the Bookshelf

Imagine a whisper on the wind, a secret shared amongst connoisseurs, leading you not to a bustling street but to a seemingly ordinary bookshelf. This is the intriguing invitation extended by Oxymorons, Hyderabad's newest clandestine cocktail bar, ingeniously tucked away in Jubilee Hills, right beside the beloved Autumn Leaf Cafe.

Forget neon signs and grand entrances; the allure of Oxymorons lies in its mystery.

The true magic begins when a seemingly ordinary bookshelf, brimming with literary tales, swings open to reveal a hidden world. Access is by a subtle hint or a whispered code, immediately immersing you in the classic speakeasy experience – a nod to an era of prohibition and hushed elegance.

Step through this portal and into a sanctuary of sophisticated leisure.

Oxymorons eschews modern brashness for a timeless, intimate ambiance. The space is dimly lit, adorned with vintage accents, plush seating, and rich, earthy tones that create a cozy, secluded haven. It’s a place designed for hushed conversations, lingering sips, and an escape from the ordinary, fostering an atmosphere of exclusive camaraderie.

The heart of Oxymorons beats in its meticulously crafted cocktails.

This isn't just about mixing drinks; it's about liquid artistry and storytelling. The menu is a curated journey, with each concoction more than just a drink; it's a narrative in a glass. Patrons can indulge in inventive interpretations of classics or venture into unique signature creations like 'The Old Man and the Sea,' 'Lady and the Tramp,' 'Sherlock Homes,' or 'Da Vinci Code,' each brimming with intriguing flavor profiles and presented with flair.

While liquid artistry takes center stage, a curated selection of gourmet bites complements the libations perfectly.

These are designed to enhance the drinking experience, offering sophisticated pairings that elevate the palate without overwhelming it.

The brainchild of Krishna Kumar K, Rakesh Gangwal, and Aatish Inamdar, Oxymorons is more than just a bar; it's an experience, a destination for those who appreciate exclusivity, impeccable service, and a touch of the extraordinary.

It's a place where the journey to find the bar is as much a part of the adventure as the exquisite cocktails within. Oxymorons promises not just a drink, but a memorable secret worth sharing – with the right people, of course.
