    Best cocktail bar ever! There was no menu. You tell the bartender what you're feeling like and you let them whip up magic... what bartenders should actually be doing. And I love the cozy and raw decor. Feels like a friend's living room party.

    Only cash (the closest ATM will rob you 4ā‚¬ for getting some), sassy staff but in a good way when they're robbing you 4,5ā‚¬ for a wine and 9,5ā‚¬ for a cocktail. Like others have mentioned, it's clear they charge you based off your look and whatever they want. Lisbon is full of amazing, delicious and honest places, so why waste your money and time in this one?

  • 1/5 Ieva L. 1 year ago on Google
    Used to be my favorite place but that constant lying that the payment machine is broken and never notifying clients upfront that they only take cash is a huge dissapointment. The owner and bartender are super ok turning chains of customers around and asking them to run around the city searching for the ATM. Clearly shows they donā€™t care at all. Also never issues a receipt, never gives the menu and charges different prices for the same drinks whenever I go.

    This place is very overrated! The cocktails are expensive for their medium quality. I was charged 9 euros for a cocktail. The next time I came I was charged 11 euros. They donā€™t accept card, neither issue receipt.. The staff is constantly changing..The manager is rude..Not a place I will come back..

    Worst experience in a Lisbon bar in 23 years. Some of it may have been bad luck, and it all centered on a waiter wearing a t-shirt that says ā€œErrorā€™94ā€ - which makes me wonder whether he has made the same errors for the past 28 yearsā€¦ First he had me reseated at a terrible small table in the hallway and ignored my request for the menu twice, then asked what I wanted to drink, and I replied I really wanted to see the menu, to which he explained twice that they have no drink menu, before giving me the chance to say that I actually wanted a FOOD menu LOL. The food, when I finally got it (corn cakes with shrimp) was bland and dry, with shelves as the most noticeable traces of shrimp. The wine was good, and just before he opened a bottle of red, I managed to remind him that I had asked for a glass of white, not red. Sitting glued to the wall, while guests constantly squeezed by, and with a few brash loud gringos at a nearby table, I had no choice but to abandon my plans and hopes for a relaxing night out. I asked for the bill - which contained items I had neither ordered nor consumed, overcharging me by 50%. Never again! Thankfully, there are many many better bars in town, and even within a 1 minute stroll around this one.

    Nice space, good music, but the cocktails are overpriced and not good. They donā€™t have a cocktail menu, you ask for what you would like and they mix it for you. Bad idea when the bartender doesnā€™t know the basicsā€¦ we ordered for different kinds of mojitos and we got the same drink (which wasnā€™t even close to the classic mojito).

    We stumbled into Social B on the way home from dinner. There was live music & the acoustics were beautiful. There's no menu for the cocktails - you just tell the bartender what kind of flavors you like & he works his magic! The bartender was a magician and my partner & I both had the best drinks of our life. The vibes were immaculate, would strongly recommend.

    They make incredible drinks! Place yourself in their hands, you won't be disappointed.

  • 5/5 Rafael M. 7 months ago on Google ā€¢ 76 reviews
    Amazing bar for those who want to try something different. They offer four traditional cocktails and the remaining ones are created by the barman on the spot. You choose between whiskey, gin, vodka, and tequila, then say if you want sweet or more to the strong/dry punch. It tasted amazing. 10ā‚¬ each, cash only. Beers are 2.50ā‚¬

    Amazing cocktails, amazing staff. Great atmosphere. Highly recommended.

  • 5/5 Ksenia G. 1 year ago on Google ā€¢ 40 reviews
    Special place with a special atmosphere. Delicious food. The moment you enter you are treated like you are a part of a big family. Flamenco music every Tuesday at 8pm. Definitely a MUST go.

    Stop here to find a little cozy bar with great atmosphere, funny and friendly owners and some damn good cocktails. We had a couple of beers and an Americano and the quality was top notch. šŸ‘ŒšŸ» defintely will go again

    Has an amazing mixologist and an incredible vibe. Would definitely recommend for something eclectic and atmospheric.

  • 1/5 Liam R. 5 months ago on Google ā€¢ 3 reviews
    Charged 32 euro for 4 drinks, very overrated bar with so many nice places in lisbon, give it a miss. Fairly sure the price was made up on the spot due to us being tourists.

    After some mediocre experiences in Lisbon, Social B saved our night. The music and atmosphere were immaculate, beer was great, and service was spectacular.

  • 5/5 david o. 1 year ago on Google
    Bar has a vibe that has to be experienced. Really unique and strong cocktails based on how y o u feel or what you typically enjoy. Very welcoming staff, this is a must go spot in Lisbon.

  • 5/5 Monica P. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place, amazing ambiance. Creative cocktails. No menu - but Augusto will guess what your ā€œthingā€ is and create an amazing drink off the cuff. A place to come back to over and over again.

  • 5/5 Karen B. 2 years ago on Google
    Really cool bar we stumbled upon. Serious buzz there on a Friday night. All the cocktails are made to your desired taste šŸ¤ŒšŸ»

  • 5/5 Marcello C. 2 years ago on Google
    If you manage to get over how remarkably good looking one of the people working there is, you will be able to order a drink. Once you order that drink they will tell you they wonā€™t make it. This is because instead they will craft a beautiful cocktail solely based on your preferences. Music is nice, so is the bar with lots of cute comfy places to sit.

  • 5/5 Anshul R. 2 years ago on Google
    The cutest quaintest and chilled out place I happened to chance upon. Leave the bartender to use her imagination in making up a cocktail and choose from the African inspired menu for delicious ā€˜home cookedā€™ food that will leave you wanting more. I had the ā€˜matapaā€™ made from banana leaves. It was divine. The cool cool music makes you want to download every sound. What a great little place off the beaten track

  • 5/5 Roni R. 2 years ago on Google
    The place to hang out in Lisbon. The drinks and food are just great. The atmosphere and the owner are super welcoming. Highly recommend!

  • 5/5 Lucas D. 2 years ago on Google
    Iā€™m in love with this bar. The Ā«Ā no drinks menu, full improvisationĀ Ā» policy is amazing. Just tell what you like and whatā€™s your mood and the amazing bartenders will take care of you. šŸ‘šŸ‘šŸ‘

  • 5/5 Mike B. 1 year ago on Google
    A fantastic place with an outstanding place! I love cocktails, but Iā€™m not into classic cocktails or even remembering cocktails namesā€¦ So this place is just perfect for me! Why? Because thereā€™s no menu! You tell a bartender your spirit of choice (rum, whiskey, gin, etc.) and a desired flavour (sweet, sour, refreshing, and so on) - and they they make an exceptional drink for you.
