Metro Bank brings its services to Oxford with a brand new store opening

Metro Bank will be marking the official opening of its new store in Oxford, with a two-day long, grand opening for the public.

To celebrate the arrival of the customer-focused bank, it is inviting local residents and businesses to its Queen Street store on Friday August 31 and Saturday September 1.

The two-day event will include entertainment and freebies, with the likes of a DJ and free manicures and face painting available.

Maria Manion, CEO at Oxford BID, said: “We’re looking forward to welcoming Metro Bank to Oxford. For residents and our strong business community, its passion for the local community is highly regarded and will be a welcomed part of the high street.”

The new store, located at 4-5 Queen Street, OX1 1EJ, will be led by local director, Ashley Keen; store manager, Joe McGowan; and local business manager, Grant Shergold.

All stores are open from 8am to 8pm Monday to Fridays, 8am to 6pm on Saturday and 11am to 5pm on Sundays and bank holidays, 362 days a year.

Craig Donaldson, CEO at Metro Bank, added: “We’re really excited to be opening up in the heart of Oxford and to show the community just what great customer service looks like.

“Whether you simply want the convenience of having a store available when you need it with colleagues ready to help, or you’re looking for the personal touch when it comes to managing your own or your business’ finances; we’re ready to make a real difference to the way Oxford banks.”
