Ah-MAZING! Ordered an old fashioned and a cucumber lemon drop martini sourced from their own Bourbon. WOWZA! So, so good. Next up, pulled pork nachos, Korean BBQ wings and rock shrimp tacos. We were covered in saucy goodness and loving it. Atmosphere is just awesome too! Four months of quarantine worth it- we choose the right place for date night! Lots of parking, indoor/outdoor seating, complimentary hand sanitizer, friendly servers, what more could you want? Will return again and again! read more

Social Still - Drink up! - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Bethlehem, Pennsylvania

This is one of those rare places that quickly becomes the automatic answer to the dreaded "Where do you want to go?" question that comes up in every relationship. Whenever that comes up, it's always The Still. From the amazing creations the bartenders create, the food that is off the charts, the staff that is always so inviting and of course the spirits they distil and bottle in house...it's all just perfect. The owners are awesome and treat everyone like friends and you'll never feel like you don't belong while you're there. Next time the question comes up, "Where should we go?" Answer it quickly with Social Still, duh. read more

Take the tour its really cool. The employees are great. Food good too

Just love this place. Great vibe with the old converted bank and high ceilings and the food is interesting and great. Last night we shared the mussel and andouille fries appetizer and my wife had the soup special and salad, while I had the confit duck fried rice. Everything was outstanding. And complemented with a house bourbon on the rocks while my wife had a Manhattan. Nice friendly service and we sat upstairs which is a nice little more private area. Fun for a couple or a group of friends. read more

A good sit down restaurant on the south-side. The building used to be a bank and they still have the vault which is cool. They have decent food and better drinks consisting of sandwiches burgers and a wide selection of appetizers. However, they can be hit or miss. Either their food is really good or just lackluster. For the price they charge you'd hope it was consistently the former. read more

First time here, went for lunch and loved it! The cocktails were great, and my daughter for the pear mocktail which could've passed for a real one. We had the burger and chicken sandwich which were great, but the giant pretzel was great. Will give shout out to Armand who gave us great service, attentive to the kids, good food recommendations, and friendly attitude. Will be back! read more

I came here on Saturday evening with a girlfriend for dinner and drinks. We shared the harvest salad and each ordered the Social Gimlet to start. Both were delicious. For dinner, I enjoyed the carnitas tacos with confit pork which were delicious and the pork was plentiful. My friend enjoyed the Every Day I'm Truffling burger but does say to order the truffle aioli on the side because it makes the burger too messy. For a second round, I had the Neshaminy Creek Punkless Druncle (pumpkin beer) which was tasty. We had a great meal and I'll happily come back to Social Still in the future! read more

5:00 on First Friday and the bar was hopping, parking was easy in the side lot. We called ahead and had a table upstairs overlooking the distillery. The upstairs was quieter for conversation. Our waitress, Emily? was great. She suggested a Moscow Mule with Lavender and it was awesome. The Sampler is a must - it's 4 baby shots of any spirits- Emily helped us choose- the kiwi vodka was . Apps- the crab, hush puppies are a must- 5 fried balls, served on a plate spread with tartar sauce. We shared the falafel wrap; served with fries. Very good but next time I will be more adventurous. No dessert, as we were stuffed but the menu sounded yummy. Emily did not rush us and she reminded us to check out the gift shop and took our picture: good job Emily! I hope that was her name read more

Birthday celebrations! What an awesome place! My husband and I went there last night to celebrate our birthdays with our friends that recently moved near Bethlehem area and we live in NJ! First, the atmosphere has a lot of character, it's an old back building over 120yrs old with original vault doors! --It was actually restaurant week so the menu was great, I had chopped salad, South Side Burger, and dessert was a snickerdoodle or ice cream with cookie. --The drinks were great, I had Social Still signature cocktail!! Then my friend and I had their smooth homemade red wine that was absolutely delicious & not acidity!! My husband and his friend had IPA locally brewed and it was good usually my husband is very picky about his IPA's. The service was good our waitress was attentive and pleasant. Btw my burger was delicious, they use local beef from local farms and it was amazing !!!! read more

I just had a conversation with a very rude employee. Bought a growler of the new vanilla/pear cocktail at Chriskindlmart and when I got home I saw that it had to be consumed in a week. I called because that didn't sound right, and the employee said it was on the sticker. Since it came from behind the stand, customers wouldn't see the sticker. She said "what do you want me to do?" And I said maybe let customers know. Then she said she would let her employees know in addition to all their other duties to let every single customer know that the cocktail needs to be consumed in a week. Seriously? I bought a GROWLER of it. Very rude. read more

Took my in-laws for dinner.....big mistake. They both are pretty simple eaters and both ordered a hamburger. Pretty hard to mess up but they did. The burgers were smaller then McDonalds. read more

All excellent- food, service and drinks. Sitting outside when possible is also nice though sitting at the bar is great too.

Social Still was a great place to celebrate a birthday! We were a party of 4 and went on a Friday. Apparently on Friday's before a certain time, they give guests free sample of their liquor. I had the spiced rum, and it tasted pretty good. I also ordered a watermelon mojito which was one of the best mojitos I've had. My meal was also very tasty! I had the pickle chicken sandwich, which I would recommend to anyone who likes pickles! The flavor of that sandwich was like no other. Great vibe inside. (PS - super cool that they give you popcorn at your table when walking in! read more

Social Still is an amazing, friendly place for great food and great spirits. First of all, every single staff member we spoke to was super friendly and helpful. Their in-house distilled spirits are worth trying every single one of them. I recommend doing a flight or two of their spirits, and then trying a cocktail or libation of your favorite liquor. I also highly recommend asking for a tour of the facility! Shout out to distiller Ann for amazing hospitality! read more

Food and drinks were amazing. Highly recommend the everything pretzel app, French onion soup, fried chicken sandwich and brisket Mac and cheese. I especially loved their old fashioned. The drink itself was delicious, and the amarena cherry in it was seriously like angels singing, it was that good. All the Covid precautions were maintained as well, from what I could see. The server was wonderful. Will definitely go here again. read more

This place is interesting but over priced and the food was not exciting. The flat bread in the charcuterie board was so salty we couldn't eat it. The calamari needed a dipping sauce. I wouldn't go back. read more

This was our 4th time visiting The Social Still and I will say the first 2 times we were impressed but the last 2 times not so much. We were seated immediately, then it took our waitress 10 minutes before she came over to ask if we wanted drinks. Also something I saw was, why does the staff dress however they want? You wouldn't know who works there or not, our waitress looked like she just came from a family picnic. Anyways back to the food, we got the nachos to start just Ok, nothing to brag about. I got the crabcake which I always get because typically it's great, however tonight it was so salty. My husband go the Meat Sweats, he said it was just ok. Overall just ok. read more

One of the best, if not the best "old fashion" I have ever had. The have their own distillery and they are great at what they do. Why the "one star" review? Because the actually don't have a kitchen and they are selling food!! They didn't give me a menu because they were behind, so, when I finished my drink I went to the back of the restaurant, they only have ONE ELECTRIC HOT PAN!! Maybe it was a unique day, those days that everything goes wrong, but unfortunately for me it was the day I decided to go. read more

Cool venue... Remember this place as a bank when I was growing up. They have done an exceptional job converting this into a trendy upscale bar and restaurant. Food is unique and special. My burger was delicious, and it would have been five stars if it was a hand formed fresh patty instead of a preformed frozen one. My buddy had the salmon, he thought it was delicious. Would be nice if they offered beer, I'm not a hard liquor drinker and at the time they are only offering mixed drinks. Some of the special mixed drinks on the menu sounded and looked like they would be good. Service was attentive. read more

Very loud, and hard to find parking. Food is just okay and it's really pricey. Not really worth the price.

My husband & I very much enjoyed this restaurant! Service (Rob) was fantastic! He was informative about the establishment and all it offered in terms of drinks, was attentive, and went above and beyond when he heard of my dairy allergy and had the sauce for the Granny Smith bread pudding put on the side without me even asking. Food was packed with flavor, and absolutely delicious! My husband had the "Ham" burger and I had the vegan black bean burger with a side Brussels sprout salad that had apples, goat cheese, and candied nuts. My white wine was good and my husband loved the strawberries and cream beer. Cannot say enough awesome things about this place! We will be back! read more

Glad we decided to try this place for dinner. Went on a Saturday night around 530p. It is in an old bank, nice high ceilings and you can see the vault from where we sat. Started with the barvarian pretzel appetizer which was a huge pretzel with a cheddar, bacon, bourbon sauce and quite tasty. Had the truffle burger and fries - excellent. Drinks were a bit pricey but worth it for a good cocktail - we tried the jake (rye whiskey), pear mojito, and cucumber lemon drop. Only downside was they were sold out of their vanilla maple bourbon which I was looking forward to trying - Will have to stop back! read more

I heard good things about this restaurant so we gave it a try and boy am I glad we did!! Food was fantastic and the service was equally superb! We loved the building too. We sat upstairs and liked that they had couches instead of jamming the room full of tables. The drinks were amazing! I wish they were a little bigger for the price, especially since they make their own spirits. My husbands Rum and Coke was so tiny we had to ask for a bigger glass to just feel like we had a drink. But the taste was great. I had the Great Pumpkin, and 2 others which were yummy. Hubby had the short rib which he loved, I had the crab cake with Brussels sprouts and I wanted to lick my plate it was so good. We finished with Creme Brûlée and the Torte and both were so good. One thing I will say is that this is the first restaurant we have gone to where our bill was $160-ish, we had drinks, dinner, AND dessert which I rarely do, and we didn't take home a doggy bag?! I am not sure if that is a good thing or bad! Everything was delicious, and I wasn't extremely full! So it was a lot to spend for not being full, and no doggie bag Lol! We will go back though! PS I did see one review where a guy said they only had 1 hotplate in the kitchen, maybe he had too many spirits because with all the people there, and the great food we had, there is no way the kitchen would have been able to serve us all! read more

We came here for dinner to top off my birthday weekend and once again, I'm glad we did! Just like the first time we visited our drinks, appetizer and dinners were out of this world! The jalapeño heist hands down is an amazing drink and we had the spinach artichoke gratin for our appetizer, this is one glorious dish! We each ordered the Social stack burger and they were made just how we ordered them. There was a perfect amount of time between drinks, appetizer and burgers. Lindsay was very attentive and the hostess remembered us from our last visit, that is service at its finest. We will be back! read more

Checked this spot out with my lovely bride and must say that i am truly impressed. The food was excellent and servers were ALL so pleasant. I had some fried calamari and it was different but delicious....The burger was on point and so was my wife's disco fries....Young lady originally serving us( blue hair) was pleasant and knew the menu well. While we were there the boss held a meeting and he introduced his staff to all the new items on the menu.. The boss actually had the staff members taste and discuss all the new items while he educated them on the items, From texture to where the ingredients came from.. this in itself i thought was phenomenal. The only down side is that the boss has a deep voice and i now know the whole menu!! I spoke to him over the phone and commended him on his style of operating read more

Fantastic spot. Great atmosphere inside. For someone who generally only drinks wine and neat scotch, I tried 3 different of their specialty cocktails and they were all unique and incredibly good. If you think its just because I don't know cocktails, the rest in my party are more experienced cocktail drinkers and really enjoyed their drinks. The menu was very limited but great. We split the ham panini, hummus plate, cheese plate, and tuna. Every one was great. I wasn't going for the food, but I would. We spent some time talking with the founder Adam (hopefully I remembered that right). Great guy - really has a vision to be a part of the community. And, pick up a bottle to bring home. I can't wait to try their whiskey (maybe in the spring or summer) read more

Very cool distillery, bar and restaurant. Drinks are excellent using the house made spirits. Great beer list too. Food is very well presented with excellent matching of flavors, spices and textures. Truffle fries are excellent. Salmon was perfectly cooked and broth was different and interesting. Crab cake was presented in a cylinder format starting with a slaw at the bottom, a charred tomato slice and a crab cake that is almost all lump crab meat. Just enough filler to hold it together and just enough seasoning to enhance the crab flavor. Finished with an excellent sauce and tarragon oil with pea green garnish. Complementary old bay popcorn greeted us at the table. Great prices, friendly staff, cool bar and great food - what's not to like? read more

great food service drinks and people!! the bartenders are great and friendly. i'm picky about food and this food is amazing!

The idea of converting a run down bank on the south side of Bethlehem into a trendy bar was a good one, because this has provided a dining experience unique to the Lehigh Valley. The food portions are large, the drinks are potent, and the service is excellent. It's a bit pricey, as our party of four easily spent $130 before tip, but nobody was complaining about the delicious food or atmosphere. I'd like to see more seating, as there are limited tables after accounting for the large still that sits in the main dining area. The desserts were made from scratch in the kitchen and were absolutely incredible. Parking was free, and directly across the street. I will definitely be back for the ambiance and plentiful mixed drink offerings. read more

Review on a Saturday afternoon lunch visit. Pros - great tasting food -plenty of options in this joint for vegeterians/meat lovers - clean setting inside, including their restroom - friendly employees, they will answer your questions and greet you promptly - plenty of seating, no issues in bringing a bigger group in here. Theres also two floors -unique setting since its situated with displays of the distillery Cons - overpriced for the area, especially the booze they distill for sale that you can take home - they don't have a parking lot read more

Had a decent experience here. The food was overall good, but the portions are very small for the prices. My significant other had ordered the Seared Yellowfin Tuna, which was under "large plates" and for $32, it was a very small portion and definitely would not fill someone up. I had the 'Bama Chicken Wrap, and the quality was good, but once again, small portions. I expected more for everything I had ordered. The biggest portion I had received was the calamari, which was pretty good, but some pieces were chewy and soft, when usually calamari is crispy on the outside and somewhat chewy on the inside. The drinks were okay for what they were priced at, and it did not seem like there was much alcohol in them. Overall, I would rate them at a 7.5/10, and would potentially come again if I was in the area. read more

We love this place each and every time we've been here. We always make a reservation and have never had to wait to be seated. The place is lively and loud and very metropolitan feeling. LOVE the vibe. The servers we've had have always been super friendly and attentive. The cocktails are so creative with lots of interesting herbal infusions using their house-made liquors. THE FOOD!... what can I say. It's always been so filled with flavor and served hot. I crave their calamari (summer 2021) and their fish tacos... WOWOWOW! I LOVE THEM SO MUCH! They pack a punch though, so if you don't like heat, remove the jalapenos. Oh also, if you are a salad lover as I am, you'll love the salads here. They are really creative and always feature seasonal produce. GO HERE AND LOVE IT! Do not take someone who is hard of hearing however, as the place gets packed and is very loud. SUCH a fun place! read more

We sat at the bar. Two bartenders were working and sadly enough the service was still very poor. Just had appetizers but they were nothing special. It's nice inside and there is a decent parking lot outside. They do have a selection of local beers if you like to drink beers. I believe they make their own vodka but I didn't try it. The service was the biggest downer. Apparently they have a reputation for service issues. My friend remarked about that problem. I hope they correct the service issue. As for me, I'm not very interested in giving it a shot. I'm not a huge beer drinker and the bad service turned me off. read more

Loved this place! Our 1st time and will definitely be back again. The ambiance was incredible and the food and drinks were nothing but short of amazing. Emily provided the best service and was very informative on all the features and drink specials. She even told us how the owners mom owns a vineyard where they get all their wine from (which I highly recommend trying). Best hidden secret in the valley. read more

Our first visit to Social Still and we will be back. The mixed drinks are definitely the highlight of the menu....not your typical run of the mill drinks. Very inventive and unique. Also a very nice selection of local craft beers. I had the nachos and it was more than an entre size. Very tasty and presented beautifully. My husband started with the scallop app and they were to die for. He then had the calamari which were good but way too salty. Service was slow and not up to par from what I would expect at a nicer restaurant such as this. Our server wasn't very friendly and seemed a little bothered. The atmosphere was very trendy. Nice mix of customers but definitely on the younger side. Great place for snacks and drinks. read more

This was a different experience in a good way. First off, the reason you come here is for the Drink selection. If you can't find something you like, they will make it for you. Don't have a taste for the hard alcohol, then there's always the excellent craft beer selection with some local choices. The Still has an variety of options for food. From quality appetizers and small plates like flatbread offerings and nachos, burgers , to large plates like brisket, scallops, and steak meals. The food quality has always been excellent. Here's the Rub! The uniqueness of the Still comes at a price. The price point for everything is on the High side. So, for me it's an occasional reward. read more
