I booked the Rafter Room for my Roaring Retirement Party. It was absolutely amazing! Working with Bailey to coordinate the night was seamless. The communication was spot on, and I felt at ease with how the evening would go. We added our own touches to decorate the space and brought in a DJ for the party. The event space was perfect for the theme as the Rafter Room reminded me of a Speak Easy. The food was outstanding, and the staff was super friendly and attentive during my party. I would highly recommend the Social Hall for any upcoming event. I had about 40 guests that have all expressed how awesome things looked and how delicious the food tasted. I was so pleased with how my retirement party turned out and to see all my friends, family and co-workers all having such a great time!!! Thanks for helping all of us have a Roaring Good Time!!! read more

After two visits, I have to say the huge appeal for me is their happy hour (4-6pm everyday). I always get the green chile mac & cheese for half off (normally $14) which is tremendous QPD (that's quantity per dollar). The guac & chips was a miss the first visit, but second time around pretty good. The El Chapo burger is pretty good as well, but the smokin' cowboy sandwich was non-too impressive and I'd pass on it. I knocked them down a star because their fries are really lackluster. Large amount of seating available both inside and out. read more

I was in search of a place to have a birthday party for my son's 19th birthday. We had 30 people. I live in CA and have never been to Tempe, so my research was all online with Yelp and the restaurant's websites. I chose the Social Hall for the food options, reviews, games, location, and price of meals. I emailed them to see if they would be a good fit for us. Bailey was quick to respond and circled back around to me each time I took a while to respond. At first, we thought we'd like the private room upstairs, but that was only offered with a minimum spend, and since the kids are young and don't drink alcohol, that wouldn't work for us. They accommodated us with outside tables on the patio. When we arrived, we were greeted at the front by our friendly server, Dylan. He was understanding that some of our party was delayed and assured me that it was not a problem. The atmosphere and service were top-notch. A lot of us ordered the rib-eye steak with corn risotto and veggies. It was sooo good! I always appreciate it when servers use seat numbers for everyone's orders and don't auction off plates of food. They gave us pitchers of water, which was also appreciated. Having the games to play in between eating and after was more than perfect. We were all pleased with the quality and quantity of our meals. When I walked around the restaurant, everyone looked like they were enjoying themselves as much as we were. Kudos to the owners, managers, and employees for running such a nice establishment. *Disclaimer* I was a career waitress for many years. So I do know what a special place is when I see it. read more

Social Hall is a lot of fun and has a restaurant plus arcade games. Our group started off with drinks and they were all quite tasty. Pretty weak though in alcohol especially for the price you're paying if you order something specific that isn't on the menu. I stuck with the Spicy Paloma since it was on happy hour and was quite happy with it, but my husband said the Old Fashion and Manhattan fell flat. Food was pretty good as well. We started with nachos and Thai chili wings and everyone really enjoyed these. They were both in happy hour and decent in size. I ordered the cubano for dinner and the sandwich was okay. The meat was really dry and the panini bread was WAY over toasted and very hard to bite into. My husband and one of our friends had the California chicken sandwich and they both said it was okay. The chicken was weird and didn't fit the same size as the bread so 1/4 of the sandwich was all bread. Honestly the best part was the truffle fries! Service was good and I can't say we have any major complaints. But the weak drinks did cause us to move to another bar for the 2nd half of the night. read more

Social Hall - Spicy Paloma (HH) & Manhattan - Bars Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

Had a bday party there. Food was awesome, server for drinks was clearly inexperienced and very slow. It was not crowded at the time so not sure why that happened. Honestly I felt bad for the guy because there were two servers just standing by the bar who never offered to help. The event coordinator wasn't there for me to talk to about the issues. Ambiance wasn't really good at all. Furniture was dirty from a monsoon two days before and they just wiped off the tops of the stools and tables. I couldn't sit on the stools because I would have had huge dirt marks on my pant legs. Told us that there would be misters but they were directed toward the sidewalk outside rather than the seating area. It certainly wasn't an inexpensive event either. Would never go there again. Two stars only because the food was so good. read more

Boysenberry cider was fire. Get that. Oh and the nachos. Could maybe add the steak next time?

Trying to find a place to fit our group of 10+ friends, we were pleased to come across this location at the Social Hall! We were seated within minutes outside as requested and had heaters nearby and also overhead covers to keep the sun out of our eyes. It took a bit to get service which seemed like a pattern throughout the night, although it's hard to know if it was solely because of our big group. Most people started with a alcoholic beverage - the capri sun one being a big hit. Although there were some complaints on "it settling " and having to be constantly stirred so it wasn't overly sweet. There was a good variety of food and all but 1 was pleased with their choice. Prices seems fair and no complaints overall! The environment was fun for a date, friends, families with older kids, college groups, etc. Lots of indoor and outdoor spaces to play games, sit by the fire, have a drink and/or bite to eat, etc. Also a great place for some candid photos, especially the mural outside! Check it out if in the area for food and/or drinks/food. read more

Late posting to this review, but a little over a year ago I went to this location with a co-worker of mine. I was told this location had both great cocktails, and even a more refined menu than just bar food. Completely blown away by the salmon dish as it was fresh, full of flavor, and decently priced! Though the location was busy, the service was friendly and I loved the vibes on the outdoor patio. If I'm in the area, I will definitely have this on my radar to visit again. read more

I know most people are on Yelp to look at food, but I just want to recommend Social Hall--specifically the Rafter Room--as an event space (that also has INCREDIBLE food). My husband and I decided to skip the traditional wedding and have an intimate family wedding in the Rafter Room of Social Hall. It was the PERFECT place for us and we are (still!) so thrilled with our decision. I'm not sure how to describe the feeling of walking into Rafter Room. It's moody, intimate, rustic, and it just feels so nice. All of our family and closest friends said the place fit us so well as a couple. We were a bit nervous because we weren't sure how the food was going to be, but WOW. It was incredible! Everyone LOVED the food. After the event, the staff boxed up the food for us. I ate leftovers every day for a week and did not get sick of it. We did the Social Grill package and that smoked brisket with barbecue was heavenly. (Now that I'm writing this, I want to eat it again haha!) The staff was also amazing. Ashley and Madeline were extremely communicative throughout the whole process and were so easy to work with. The staff that helped us the day of were also so nice and helpful. I've been telling everybody about Social Hall as an event space since our wedding. (Also, if you're in need of audio or media for an event, we surprised everyone with a vow video we had filmed a month prior and luckily for us, the Rafter Room has a built-in projector screen and audio setup. It was perfect!) I can't say enough great things about our experience. Thank you to everyone at Social Hall for making our wedding day so special! read more

Finally got to try the famous Social Hall! Came here with a friend on a Saturday evening-ish, i think it was like 5pm. And glad we came early cuz as soon as we got there, people started come, waiting in line. And surprisingly, they have happy hour every day! Yeah even on Saturdays and Sundays. So we got to have happy hour drinks and food. What a deal :) And there are games like pool, machines, and etc., such a fun cute place. Perfect for weekends nights! read more

Visit: April 2024 We are not from this area, but we wanted a place that had good food and drinks. This place did not disappoint. We sat outside, and it's a nice inviting ambiance. Our server was great! She was attentive and sweet. This is a good spot for young adults. There was a ping pong table and billiards to play. We didn't go inside, so I'm not sure how loud it gets in there. We had a great dining experience and would recommend this place if you're visiting the area. read more

Awesome spot to take friends! They have great drinks, fun games, a Photo Booth, and even a cool upstairs area. The place is shaped like a giant barn so the upstairs has vaulted ceilings. Their menu changes a bunch and the Green Chile Mac has gone down in quality over the years. It used to be this amazing penne pasta with the perfect cheese and the juiciest carnitas. Over time, they've changed the recipe (pasta type and cheese). The carnitas are still good though! The lobster from the surf and turf was delish! read more

Came here on Friday night with a group of friends. It wasn't very busy but there was a wait for a table. We decided to seat outside. Customer service was nice but it was slow. If you wanted something you had to take advantage when the waitress came by and ask for everything at once. The ambiance is nice, there is music and games inside. We all ordered different dishes to share. Everything tasted good, portions were good. The only thing for dessert the churros were a little too dry. Overall it was nice place, keep in mind this is in college town :) read more

Vibey spot in Tempe, with outdoor communal spaces to "get social!" We planned to have a full meal here. That never worked out. Luckily, we did stop by for dessert. Our waitress and waiter were exceptionally welcoming and helpful.The place was bustling with young 20 something's. We sat in a booth near the bar. We shared their pumpkin cheesecake with ice-cream. Boy, did that hit the spot. We also ordered a few drinks that I wasn't fond of. I would return to try Social Halls' food menu, sit outside, and get the full experience. read more

Was pleasantly surprised by the time we had at social hall sitting up at the bar on a Sunday afternoon. We originally were driving around town to find a place to watch the 49ers game, and so we thought social hall would have it on plus food and drinks for me. Unfortunately, they had the 2 other games going on that day but not the game we were looking for. We ended up watching the game on a phone as we had already ordered and wanted to give the food a try. The salad was large and thanks to Greg the bartender's great suggestion, we ordered the brisket quesadilla. Greg was very friendly and made our experience just that much better. There was also a 10% off perk for helpers when you check in which was a plus. read more

What a horrible experience we had. We were here to celebrate our ASU graduate and have a family dinner and the employees saw us come in with children and didn't say anything and they waited until we ordered and then kicked us out because we had minors. They could have told us beforehand but did not and this situation could have been avoided. Seriously, their service was mediocre and the leader or whoever her was was extremely rude! DO NOT COME TO THIS PLACE! read more

We had a dinner for 18 people after a graduation and the service was excellent. Food was good and they served all of us at nearly the same time. Only complaint is the chicken taquitos were over cooked and had zero meat in them. The space was perfect for the large group. read more

This place is great! It's my near-neighborhood go-to. They make great drinks and the food is really good. (Try the Cortez Bowl or the Garlic Noodles.) I enjoy coming with my pre-teen/teen kids, and they enjoy it, too. Gracie is a great server! read more

Great service and a fun throwback to a place we've enjoyed for years. Fun atmosphere and patio

Thank you to the people at Social Hall for making our baby shower for 21 people a wonderful event. The food was delicious and the staff was super accommodating and helpful. I especially enjoyed the space at Social Hall. I was able to decorate our corner of the courtyard beautifully to make an already lovely space even lovelier. Several of my guests said that it was the best food they have ever eaten at a baby shower. I agree. Unfortunately, I did not take a picture of the buffet or the food, but I do have a couple of photos of people enjoying their plates at the table. Kudos to Social Hall! I highly recommend this venue for events. read more

If you're planning on hosting an event, I definitely would recommend Social Hall. read more

My meal was amazing. I got the Citrus-Teriyaki Glazed Noodles with no mint, and a add on of the Coconut Shrimp. I would rate this an 11/10. I also had 3 other people try it and they wished they had gotten it too! I also absolutely love the ambiance! It's super big. We sat in the patio and played Connect 4, Ping Pong, and Foosball! I always recommend it for a place to eat! read more

Service was horrible and staff was rude and they wanted to charge a 18% gratuity? Really? They didn't even wait on us! We had to go order and get our drinks! Plus, we were told that there were no kids allowed when they saw us come in with them and waited until we ordered and then kicked us out! So unprofessional! read more

By far the WORST EXPERIENCE! SERVICE IS THE WORST YOU WILL FIND OUT OF FRANCE! Celebrating ASU graduate and although the place was COMPLETELY EMPTY (for a reason) staff waited until we ordered to tell us we had to leave because we had an obvious minor. Nothing was posted anywhere in the restaurant nor were we made aware when we ordered. WOULD NOT recommend this place at all, wouldn't have minded if staff was courteous, but their attitude was completely uncalled for. They literally brought food out and said you have to leave, not a please, not a sorry for the inconvenience, just a plain get out. In addition, get ready to pay for 18% included gratuity for a service not received read more
