Fantastic drinks and entertainment

We had a great night of cocktails and live music. Staff were friendly, drinks were excellent and the entertainment was brilliant. We ate in the restaurant next door and received 10% off our first drink in the bar.

Great boozy brunch!

Really enjoyed the Boozy Brunch. Both the cocktails and the Prosecco were really good. The food was also very good indeed. We had the hash brown stacks. The drawback was only being allowed 90 minutes for the session. 2 hours would be much better so you don’t have to rush through drinks. Service was excellent although the place was rather quiet.

Thank you for your 5-star review! We're glad you enjoyed our Boozy Brunch and found the cocktails, Prosecco, and food to be top-notch. We appreciate your feedback about the time limit and will definitely take it into consideration - For now it is being based on what is the standard "bottomless brunch" timing and we will continue to monitor it :)
We hope to see you again soon at Social 8 Lounge!

Fantastic cocktails

Yani is a credit to your place. Makes really good cocktails and made up for the error on the food. The food was good when it was eventually corrected.

We checked out several venues for my retirement party and settled on Social 8 Lounge. It was a good decision - we were in no way disappointed. Lewis on behalf of Ate O'clock surpassed our expectations and couldn't have done better. The room was set up as requested, it was clean and welcoming. The in -house sound system was easy to use and enabled us to play our our playlist. All in all a great evening and enjoyed by all.

We are thrilled to hear that you and your guests had a great evening and enjoyed the amazing service by Lewis, the setup & cleanliness of the room and the music system. It was our pleasure to exceed your expectations, and we hope that in your retirement we get to welcome you back even more :)

We strive to provide our customers with a 5-star experience in all aspects and we're glad we were able to exceed your expectations.
It was an absolute pleasure to host you (Stelios said how lovely you all were), and we look forward to welcoming you back for another amazing visit soon.
