About this space

Upstairs Bar is an intimate, music-led wooden room originally designed by renowned architects David Adjaye and Will Russell. Our booth seating and tables allow for great nights with friends and the perfect sport to enjoy our top floor bar.

For the last two decades, The Social has been one of central London’s most loved getaways – somewhere between a modern day speakeasy and a home-from-home local.
