| - Society is without a doubt my favorite drink spot in Cleveland. Ive been going there with friends and dates about once a week for the past 3 months.
If there is one reason you go to Society Lounge, its for the drinks. The cocktails offered on their menu are akin to works of art. The first time you go, I highly suggest going right up to the bar to order the first round so you can watch the bartenders make your drinks. It can be pretty impressive to see how much time is put into concocting a single cocktail. The cocktails are in the $12-14 range and are worth every penny. Just be mindful, they are not on the light side, most of these cocktails are definitely heavy and can/will hit you hard (e.g. the Sazarac, Widow's Kiss). Luckily, the menu has a really useful guide/legend at the bottom of each page to categorize the drinks so you know exactly what youre getting, even if you aren't as well-versed in the cocktail lingo.
The atmosphere is perfect for either a fun night out on the town with friends or a quiet and cozy date. The lounge is entirely underground and has a great ambiance. The lighting is dim and definitely is ideal for setting the mood. The decor is very modern and the funiture is perfectly comfy for sitting back and relaxing with your cocktail. The plethora of couches, chairs, stools and benches gives your butt a variety of options, and I am a man who likes his options. In terms of the attire, its definitely a mix of casual to dressy. However, I would suggest dressing to impress.
Often, on the weekends, live bands / artists will perform. Youll see everything from swing bands to vocalists with deep and soulful voices.
The bartenders and servers at Society are always top notch. Very friendly and always ready to strike up a fun, quick conversation inbetween drink orders when its not too busy. Keep in mind, that these cocktails take time to make. If the lounge is busy, it definitely takes some time to get your drinks. Its for that reason that I suggest going in the non-busy hours.
The manager at the bar is a cool guy by the name of Joey. I cant speak higly enough of his service. A couple weeks ago, I wanted to help my buddy celebrate his birthday in style. I went to Society a day beforehand and talked to Joey about doing something memorable. He came up with the idea of having a special drink on the menu just for my friend. Beyond that, he went out and bought him a birthday cupcake from Colossal Cupcakes on Euclid, candle and all. You really cant beat that kind of service.
Im pretty fortunate that I live on East 4th, so its easy for me to go to society anytime of the week. If not living nearby, tons of parking is available in the area, including the East 4th valet service. One of the benefits of being so close to the Q and Progressive Field. If looking for a dinner option to precede the cocktails on a date, East 4th as a number of nice restaurants.
I cant recommend this lounge enough, go check it out for yourself.
