Critic's Choice

Fine beers, wines and cocktails, Dad food (even Twiglets!), great music including quality weekend DJs in an evening-only downstairs bar, intimate ambience, sparky bar staff and just the right crowd. Business as usual at Social. Daytime unfolds in the street-level diner, walls decked out in rotating exhibitions of black and white photography with punky themes, while five rounded tables bearing ketchup and HP await a fishfinger sarnie (£3.70) or Square Pie (£7). A long bar bookended by a Heavenly Jukebox begs your backside for company. Beers include San Miguel and Grolsch on tap, plus bottled A. Le Coq from Estonia, Tsingtao from China, Red Stripe and Pilsner Urquell. The eponymous house cocktail features Teichenné, a butterscotch variety mixed with Frangelico Hazelnut.
