The Social - originally designed by renowned architects David Adjaye and Will Russell and now being re-imagined two decades on by the original team that built it, the two floors offer their own unique takes on the perfect night out.
The Social remains – two decades in – one of the very best spaces to lose a night in the U.K.

Graeme and the team at the social were so incredibly helpful / thoughtful. We had very clear communication in the weeks leading up to the party. The venue provided a DJ and bouncer for the night, and they did their best to make the money we'd put down stretch for the duration of the night
About The Social
The Social opened in the summer of 1999. A two floor bar right at the heart of London evolved out of the legendary Heavenly Sunday Social club nights that ran in various venues between ’94 and ’99. Rather than act as a bricks and mortar extension of those nights, the Social quickly developed a reputation as a free-thinking, boundary pushing destination for open minded drinkers, keen listeners and late night thinkers.
The Social is a stone’s throw from Oxford Circus.
