J.

I've not experienced the ground floor bar but the top bar, as a function room and meeting place, is good. A separate bar, sound system and facilities - all work well for a private party.

A. D.

Lovely laid back bar stroke lounge. The drinks are ore student orientated beer and simple cocktails. The music is amazing ..good blend of old school hip hop and new beats. There is live music with open mic on a Wednesday which is well worth it. The bar is also dog friendly the staff really down to earth and do as much to make you feel welcome. There is plenty of sofas for a laid back experience..cone with friends or a group or come alone and make new friends! All in all a great lounge for chilling out and having a relaxed drink. There are also two pool tables as well.

Always a good crowd, drinks a bit expensive

J. E.

Great place! They don't mind you getting a little rowdy and also don't do food so are happy for you to order in! I recommend the peach beer! Down too easily!

W. r.

Great bar, made to feel welcome... Was part of a 12 man stag and they catered for our party especially during covid rulings, even allow to bring your own food, Friendly bar staff.. Highly recommended *****

C. S.

Spike was super friendly and made the experience super fun 👌

K. D.

The only place where u can bring yo dog and your neighbourhood nitty. The social is a gathering place for many

H. E.

Last night I cannot thank the staff enough how they dealt with a situation that made me feel really uncomfortable.

D. M.

Friendly staff, pool tables, comfortable indoor seating and plenty of space outside. It can get a bit rowdy, but that's all part of the fun. Great range of beverages, including some specific to this venue only.

S. B.

Went out for Sunday roast today and was not disappointed! Even with a big group of us (13) the service was quick and friendly and the food spot on. Very impressed with the new menu (please put the Sunday menu on the website!) and was glad my teenage boys and baby nephew were made welcome. Very good value at £12 a head. Particularly recommend the cauliflower cheese. Will certainly be back!

E. T.

Decent casual outing venue and reasonable prices.

I have bee a few times and can say that all the times I have been the staff have been friendly, even the doorman which can be a shock. The prices are pretty standard for Southampton but the pool tables at the back are nice. My most recent visit was for a birthday party which was held upstairs, before this visit I had never seen the upstairs and I was surprised and happy with the size of the room and with the bar.

R. R.

Went here with my son who said this was his 'local'. Lovely setting, good choice of drinks and had a brilliant lunch. Apparently Sunday roast is fabulous-my son is a big fan! Go alone, you shouldn't be disappointed, I wasn't.

L. W.

Wonderful bar, excellent standard of service! The venue decor is brilliant, a real stand out bar in bedford place. Really looking forward to the launch of their pie & mash food menu, lovely outdoor terrace seating with plenty of space for large groups. Large wine selection, great draft beers, and some awesome cocktails, a place that will be there for the long haul!

B. G.

The Social has a nice atmosphere aside from Friday/Saturday nights when the music is a bit too loud and it's packed. Staff are lovely. The only thing that lets it down is the price of their ale, over a fiver a pint!

E. C.

One of the bartenders are freaking next level! Matt could be a celebrity bartender. He had us all waiting just for him and his pour tricks. Most delicious cocktails too!!! Will come back everytime he works!

S. W.

Went for Southampton Music in the City event, it had a great atmosphere, great music and the staff were super friendly 👍

G. T.

Chilled bar with a student vibe 👌🏻

B. M.

We recently held a launch party for our partner publication "Young Emerging Arts Magazine" here. It was a great night and some of the best up and coming artists were in attendance. The Social is a great place to start the night, so get yourself down there to check it out!

N. H.

Fantastic Food...& Great Staff!!! Being a vegetarian I've never had so many yummy things to choose from...and with 2 for 1 cocktails aswell...makes for the perfect place!! Looking forward to coming back again.

j. r.

It was ok, not busy, maybe because it's a Thursday but both pool tables available for a game or two so no complaints my end... served its purpose. Will go back

M. W.

Classic lounge vibe with modern interior. The drinks are tasty and the bartenders know their stuff. Great speakers too with plenty of great music and comfortable seating.

S.

Hosted a wedding for my daughter. Went above and beyond to help and assist Lawrence your amazing and I didnt get a chance to say thanks for being great and so aware of your guests needs.

J. A.

Can't really fault it besides the odd moody doorman or bar staff serving in a random order instead of by how long you've been stood there. The girl who ran the upstairs bar for my Christmas work do was great.

I. D.

Nice place but only serves drinks. No food.

D. B. S.

Good music, nice outdoor area. Needs some sound absorption material on the walls to make it a 5-star music venue. Without it, the sound was unnecessary poor

J. G.

Great drinks and staff, cool little spot. Super cheap if you catch the 2-4-1 on Thursdays 😎

W. S.

Favourite bar in Southampton to combine pool and whisky. Added bonus I can take the dog in during the daytime

J. S.
