The Social

For discerning music lovers with a Yen for alcohol, the Social bar near Oxford Circus has been created for you, and it's the brainchild behind the Muzos behind the Heavenly record label.

If you're at all interested in music, than this is probably the place you want to come to, because you're surrounded by people who love and are very passionate about their music. Our music policy is such that it's eclectic, but it's within the sort of Heavenly realm. Anywhere between Rock and Roll to psychedelia to pop to electronica, we get a whole selection of people in here. Tonight, we've got a night called Health and Happiness, and that basically covers every aspect of country.

The social's a great venue, you can come down here, it's central London, you can come down after work, relax, have a few drinks, forget all the shackles of your job...

It's such a different selection of music from what they play in the bars around here, I mean, it's just unrivaled really.

I think what you'll find is, a bit of a sauna, a Swedish sauna in look. It's very comfortable and lounge-ey and of course this is where most people coiff the fantastic square pies that we sell and of course the fish finger sandwiches that we're known for. And then downstairs is the dungeon where you can do whatever you like down there... within reason, of course.

I didn't used to come here that much, but then I tasted one of their margaritas, and it is such a mean margarita.

The real famous feature at this bar is the jukebox, and we're constantly updating the tracks on that. Obviously Heavenly has new bands like the Magic Numbers and Duke Spirit, and as soon as that music comes out, as soon as its been produced, we'll get it straight on the jukebox and you'll hear it first.
