Society Lounge

Great Speakeasy vibe The Happy Hour food was excellent and the mixologist knew his stuff!Great service and looking forward to returning

Enjoyed a couple cocktails and a charcuterie board last night at Society. We had a sour and a pear martini. Staff was friendly and checked on us often. The charcuterie board was delicious but due to the lighting, we couldn't see what we were eating which made it a fun blind taste test basically lol. Always a treat.

really cute cocktail bar with speakeasy vibes! I came for their annual holiday miracle pop up bar. They did an incredible job with Christmas decorations! there's some tables and some areas for standing. I'm excited to come back and try their usual menu. They validate part of the East 4th valet

Fun speakeasy-type lounge for cocktails! We recently visited and their holiday decorations were so cute! And the holiday cocktail list was great. We had the Christmapolitan and season Old Fashioned and both were great. We thought the Home Alone theme was so fun and festive. I'd love to come back outside of the holiday season and try some of their regular menu cocktails.

I'm sure it would have been nice had we got in. They had serious communication issues between the inside bar and the outside door keeper. Neither could hear each other. We waited the time they quoted, reqouted, and requoted. No luck for our four top that was ready to spend some $. So...make a reservation.

Stopped here for some fancy cocktails. Really neat speakeasy vibe. The cocktails were artfully crafted. Nice relaxing atmosphere. Service was okay.

Great service, one of the best dirty martinis of my life.Stop in for live jazz on a thursday night.

Since moving downtown in 2019, going to Society Lounge's "Miracle on E 4th" holiday pop-up bar on the Saturday after Thanksgiving has become an annual tradition. Usually I go with friends to kick off the season after the annual tree lighting in Public Square. This year, I ended up going beforehand and I'm so glad I did -- otherwise, I may not have been able to get in at all. My friend showed up 10 minutes or so before they opened (at 4pm) and they told her that they were still getting set up. She decided to quickly pop into the 5th Street Arcade while waiting for the bar to officially open. Upon returning, the host stationed outside on E 4th asked if she had a reservation and denied her re-entry when she told him no. She thought this was odd given that she had just been there a few minutes prior. When I joined her, we asked the host if we could in the very least go down to sit at the bar versus at a table. We were told we could only go down to use the restroom because they were all full, and that we'd need to come back upstairs to be officially admitted. We looked at each other and seized our opportunity. Upon descending, I noticed some familiar festive decor, but not as much as past years and that all the lights weren't on like usual. We then turned the corner and realized that they were not crowded whatsoever! This was seriously so strange given that the host had told us there was no room for us. We decided to take a few pictures with the Buddy The Elf display and sit at the bar anyway, where we easily found two open seats. There were definitely not enough bartenders. I had to grab our own menu at the downstairs host stand and it took at least 15-20 minutes for us to get waters and even asked what we wanted. At that point, my friend got a text saying they were ready to seat us, so I guess whatever they were using to gauge wait times was accurate. It was just very surprising given that this is always a busy night and the bar was not even remotely full yet. I ordered the new addition to the menu: Marshmallows and Unicorns. It came with a skewer of marshmallows with a soaked cherry in between. It was delicious! My friend got the Santarex. She also wanted a souvenir pin. After waiting 10 mins or so we were told they were already out but would have more in a few weeks. Between when we ordered and when we got our drinks, I went upstairs to re-add my name to the waiting list so we could get back in after the tree lighting. The host admitted to me that he was new and would do his best to get me back in later but couldn't make any promises. Later that evening, I never got a text about being ready to be seated or anything, so we decided to go elsewhere. I hope all of this was just early holiday season growing pains, but I do worry that these issues could persist. I can't even imagine what it might have been like later that evening with a Cavs game, concert at House of Blues, the tree lighting and fireworks, and Small Business Saturday all happening simultaneously. With 8 other holiday pop-up bars now, maybe skip this one if you've gone in the past or go during the week.

Came for drinks and dessert after dinner and the society lounge did not disappoint. We for the flourless torte which paired perfectly with the fruit. I had the almost Aperol and my husband got the "Big Lebowski" which were both phenomenal. Staff is incredible. Atmosphere is dimly lit with cozy furniture. The vibes are so warm a

Lively bar tender. Had to wait awhile to be acknowledged, but it was a crowded night. Cocktails were expensive but delicious and unique!
