On the whole it was a positive experience. We all had the restaurant week 35 euro set menu and to be fair it was good value for money. The only issue was that the pork chop main course came out under temperature. Starters were great, dessert was good and the cocktails and other drinks were good. Service was good but could do with a bit of fine tuning. For the money we paid it was good value

Me and my girlfriends went for a meal here tonight. We found the food to be delicious. We were all satisfied, between the service, timing, food, atmosphere, staff and prices. We each payed roughly 40/50€ each not including alcohol. Our food was amazing and they had a fantastic drinks menu. I would recommend 100 times over :)

Booked this restaurant on way back from Brú na Bóinne. No problem getting a parking space. Staff were all friendly and service was smooth and efficient. Food was excellent. I would certainly eat here again.

This is by far the best Bar & Restaurant in Drogheda. I was here for New Years Eve with a young family and the service was so good at the busiest of times. This time it was a Tuesday but there was still a lovely atmosphere and friendly and efficient staff. The choice of starters is very good. My Halibut main was really well cooked as was my partner's lamb. Highly recommended

Enjoyed first experience in Social. The only issue was we found portions quite small in comparison to similar menu in other restaurants so not good value for money. I had lamb shank on bed of crushed swede but couldn't find swede? Lamb was delicious. It would be advisable to add some veg to mains. A relatively cheap additive & more satisfied customers.
