Love the atmosphere, the TVs, and the service is always excellent. But it is the food that keeps me coming back!!! The regular menu is outstanding and we had the best breakfast biscuit sandwich ever yesterday! Definitely a new fave for our family!! Cheers to the bar staff for keep us hydrated as well - delicious Mimosas and great choice of beer!
The service and food is outstanding. Our waitress was super sweet & so was the manager when the power went out. My friends & I went for happy hour drinks, appetizers, and dinner. We got sangria, pinot gris, the peachy cocktail, and the green apple cocktail which were all tasty & strong. We shared bread, Cheeto Mac n cheese, queso, and the shrimp for appetizers. For dinner we had the Florentine flat bread & the seafood flat bread. We were too full for dessert but hope to come back soon. All of the drinks and food were super amazing and affordable. I like that they focus more on quality rather than quantity which I appreciate. I highly recommend this restaurant & will return when in town ! :)
Awesome, hole-in-the-wall place! Cool atmosphere and pretty good food. Had the brunch on a Saturday afternoon with mimosa. Service is okay... they try.

We're from Yorktown, VA and went to Richmond for the day. We picked Social 52 over a couple other pubs in the neighborhood and I'm so glad we did. My husband and I both cleared our plates - everything we ordered. We started with the petite crab cakes, which were a daily special and really incredible. Then I ordered the shrimp and grits and he ordered the potato crusted salmon. Let me tell you, these were the second best shrimp and grits I've ever had in my life (and the only ones that beat them were in Charleston, SC). We ended with desserts of key line pie and creme brûlée. The key lime pie was ACTUALLY key lime pie, and anyone who knows the difference will know what I'm talking about.
My husband loves IPAs, and they had 5 just on tap, so this place was perfect for him. I like mixed drinks, and Social 52 did not disappoint. Their drinks are good, girly without being sickly sweet, and STRONG. You get your money's worth.
We'll be back in Richmond in a couple weeks for a Broadway show, and we're already planning on coming back to Social 52. This is our new favorite. Do yourself a favor and stop in!!
Nice vibe and good food and drinks. Solid beer list and they have Sam Smith's Organic Chocolate Stout which is a huge plus. The menu could be more extensive but the food we had was very good. The deep fried brussel sprouts were amazing. The salmon dish was very good with a large filet. The chocolate creme bridle was the best I've ever had. Our server Justin was very sweet and attentive. I will be back.
Best buttermilk this side of the Mississippi
Best shrimp and grits I've had in Richmond. Awesome bottle list. Awesome service. Bartender Catherine really knows what she's doing. Looking forward to coming back!
This restaurant accommodated our large and loud party of 20 at the last minute. The staff was fabulous and patient. Mixed drinks were excellent. If I had to base the review stars off of the food I'd give them one star. The french fries were the best part of the meal. They seemed fresh cut and the oil was fresh. I ordered an only cheese smash burger and it looked like a frozen perfectly round and unsmashed burger. My first bite was soooo salty I couldn't eat it at all. I thought a smashburger had crispy edges. You should take the name SMASH off the menu because that is false advertisement or educate yourself on what a smashburger actually entails. I left hungry but the service from the staff was amazing.
Sidenote: This is the first time I've ever ordered firecracker shrimp and it was grilled and not breaded. I don't approve and the menu did not inform you.
Cool vibe! Great drinks, appetizers, and entrees! Really good happy hour and great bourbon selection available. Edemame is best in class, calamari done very well, burger is very good. Chicken pesto needs some work. I would recommend dialing back the salt in general.
Nice bar and restaurant - both is separated through a partly brick wall - nice ambient - cool thing they have happy hour every evening - very friendly personal - we felt quite good during our visit
Nice ambiance. The food came out really well though my plate, out of six, was completed wrong and had to remade. It tasted well made and fresh when it eventually came out. No kids menu. Bathrooms was clean. No dedicated parking but you can find on the street pretty easily
1st time here, came in for Easter Sunday Brunch. I had the chicken and waffles with a side of sausage gravy. The picture does not due it justice, it was soooo good! Also had the mimosa, overall great food, Chance was our server, very cool and quick to make sure our drinks were full. Will definitely come back again.
Sleek, clean, well rounded selection of creative cocktails. Definitely 1 of my favorite Old Fashions!! The Paper Plane was awesome!.....That Social Manhattan though...is only for the strong and brave! Lol
Can't wait to go back and try the rest!
Everything was good! I had the chicken and waffles. The syrup had a lil spice to it but it was a good balance with the meal. The drinks were awesome. The wait staff if really cool!
We went with a small group on a Saturday evening around 6 pm. The music was too loud to hear each other across the table. When we inquired about turning it down, we were told by our server they "would ask but probably not". The food was decent but we probably won't come back for our monthly meetup due to the noise.
i’m so glad that I was invited to this place because I hadn’t heard of it and it was awesome! staff were super friendly and readily available for anything we needed. the happy hour prices were great and they had a large selection of specialty drinks. I got a Rip Tide Rush cocktail and it was one of the tastiest and definitely the prettiest drink I’ve ever had. Cant wait to come back soon!
Such a great cozy spot. The staff was very attentive, and checked on us with precise timing. The biscuits and gravy were awesome, and the chicken and waffles, with a side of gravy, were probably some of the best I've had. The portions are sized to fill you up, and maybe take some for later. Make sure to check this place out!!!
