Been here so many times! Great place to meet up with some mates, have a laugh and listen to some good, funky music. Although it is pretty small, it's got a really good vibe!

Good venue and great music.....the only downside was the bar staff. The girl behind the bar (with blonde crop) was really the epitome of appalling bar service. I've never known anything like it!

I spent nearly 40 minutes standing at the front of the bar trying to get served but she completely ignored me and kept serving the men either side of me. At one point my friend who has just been served mentioned to her that I had been waiting for longer that him, but this was met with a rather rude response and made her even more hostile.

She then went on to serve every other customer at the bar for the next 15 minutes until finally her fellow barman came over (having seen me waiting for such an excruciatingly long time) and actually apologised for his colleagues behaviour!!

I work in media and customer relations and, trust me, if I ever treated a client like that I'd get fired! Very unprofessional.

Fantastic atmosphere for a west end club - a well hidden gem!

I had a fantastic time at The Social at the weekend. It was inviting and energetic, which is something that tends to be few and far between these days. I haven't been in such a friendly atmosphere for years.


The Social is definitely a local haunt that will be a regular spot on my calender.

The Social is one of the best places to go in London. Fantastic music, food and drinks. Friendly staff.


The last person to post a review of The Social is an idiot and doesn't know what he's talking about. Get a life, mate!

What can I say about The Social apart from the fact that they should rename this place the Anti Social. I was asked by staff not to sit on a chair because the chair was not supposed to be there!

I found the atmosphere at The Social cold and the decor dated. If you don't mind standing in a cold, dull, cramped hole and not having a good time, try it. Oh dear.

The Social has proven me wrong: The west end is not a no go area to go out in. The venue, cocktails, atmosphere and hip hop karaoke are all top.


I can't wait for the next enstallment of karaoke at The Social.
