"My friends and I who are in our 30’s decided to pop into this “bar” for a drink after dinner before heading home"
"Iconic bar venue, had some memorable nights here over the years (previously Ibiza bar) Cool staff, music on the House tip and always good I feel compelled to mention the chips"
"This bar has Happy Hour for its cocktails - 2 for 1"
"0/10 my friends and I went here for a drink after dinner before going home"
"I've been there before and enjoyed the music, but tonight a group of us 31 year olds got knocked back on a night out for a friends birthday because the bouncer thought the owner wouldn't approve of letting us younger people in"
My friends and I who are in our 30’s decided to pop into this “bar” for a drink after dinner before heading home. After we sat down on one of the couches we were greeted by a rude bald man with glasses who said that my friends and I are too young to be in the bar and asked if we could leave. His words “everyone is going to be your parents age around here soon so you better leave”. I’ve NEVER had this level of service in a bar, let alone having a bar that had minimal customers and turning away 5 paying customers. If I could give 0 stars here I would. Disgusting. Avoid here at all costs.

Iconic bar venue, had some memorable nights here over the years (previously Ibiza bar) Cool staff, music on the House tip and always good I feel compelled to mention the chips. I eat chips in a lot of places, here and overseas and the ones served at the Social are in a league of their own. I'm obsessing on them, they are so good. I even took some home in my bag for my wife to prove to her how good they are. I don't what their secret is but they are killing it. Order a serve with dips next time you are in
This bar has Happy Hour for its cocktails - 2 for 1. The music played is mainly house but can play old house which can be nostalgic. The crowd itself is quite an older crowd which makes it a bit more laid back and good to to let loose if you don't care what anyone else thinks of you. Smoking area is at the front of the bar and also on the street in front where there is an umbrella for cover. I believe they do provide food but I wasn't able to test and taste on this occasion.
0/10 my friends and I went here for a drink after dinner before going home. We were then told to leave after a rude man, who I think was the manager/owner stated this is a mature age bar, you should leave here because “the people here are about to be your parents age”. Incredibly rude and condescending, however I went to the bayou next door, very welcoming bartender and great atmosphere.

I've been there before and enjoyed the music, but tonight a group of us 31 year olds got knocked back on a night out for a friends birthday because the bouncer thought the owner wouldn't approve of letting us younger people in.... as we are under 40! It totally ruined our night, the birthday girl was very disappointed. I would not waste your time.
I've been a few times and I like the great relaxed atmosphere early in the evenings, with cool house music later for dancing. It has a friendly vibe and wide age group. I had an event there and the staff were very helpful, nibbles and finger food were good and prices moderate. If recommend it for relaxed drinks or parties.
Had an amazing time, threw our engagement party here last night and staff were extremely friendly, music and vibe was very chill, the food was great and well served. The service was thorough from beginning to end. Definitely recommend. Try the prawns and the jade shot, it won’t disappoint!
It's always a great night out here. The staff are friendly, the atmosphere is positive, the crowd is relaxed and trouble free. The cocktails are fantastic. You might even find that special someone standing at the bar.

Friendly staff and plenty of room around the bar. Place is clean and seats have material cushioning. Does accept cash. Drink were good and acceptable priced. Really liked the mini burgers, chips (oil was fresh) and deep fried spiced rice balls - i.e. good bar food.
Seems like more males to females, many regulars in their 40's Plus. Sometimes you get a stray glamor. And toilet wait can be a bit long if you know what I mean...Good house music. And the dance floor is always full...

2 Saturdays ago I went for a drink to celebrate a friend's birthday after we met at Hoo Haaa. I ordered a gin and tonic and danced a little with my friend's friends. I wanted to move the place my coat so I left my glass at the bar, moved it
I made a purchase online of something that has absolutely nothing to do with a bar o a restaurant, plus the website is from the UK, I haven't received anything, so I checked the bank statement and turns out, I paid 90£ to this bar through
It's ok. Good staff and ambience ok but DJ can be better... Went there for a dance, but music wasn't dance worthy...

Was told that I was “too young” to be in the venue despite being 26 years old. Horrible service and rude management. Would not recommend / 10.

Great music. Good atmosphere. And one of the only places on Chapel Street that has an actual dance floor. Great for all ages, but it seems to not attract the teens or those in their 20s.
Girls that work there are extremely dramatic. Owner is very unprofessional. Older crowd. Cheap drinks. Decent music. Small venue. Recommend if you are in your mid 30’s to 40’s and up
Great little bar, tunes are pumping every Saturday night, Great staff, great selection of drinks. They don't discriminate who they let in like other local bars. Two thumbs up.
DJ Peter Mac is prob one of the best djs in melb. Warm atmosphere great and friendly service, responsible mature crowd. Not overly crowded. Please don’t change!
Pre party, Post party or Function. No entry fee or E tickets required. Just a great bar, a great host, great tunes and great people who love to dance!!
This place rejected me even before checking my ID and apparently only for 30s after knowing I’m 27 y.o what a clown Bouncer
