Social Spot — Restaurant in San Antonio

I have been to the Social Spot a handful of times and I have experienced the day and night time crowd.

My recent experience was on 3/16/19 around 2:30 pm.

I actually love this place. Their beer prices are fair and The Ivy Bags are pretty good also. I may stick with the Vodka version instead of the rum.

The customer service here is really good also as their bartenders are nice and friendly. One recommendation I would have for night time is to put a bar station with beer only outside to prevent long lines inside. Inside bar isn't very large and has an awkward layout a little bit when trying to order drinks.

My favorite part about this place is that it is pet and kid friendly here until 9:30pm.

There is also enough space and games if you are with a party of people outside to hang out.

Kids playground area is decent as well; I would just take a look around there every once in a while. My kid was playing with a sharp metal bracket she found in the rocks on 3/15/19 and I'm glad I caught it. It looked old and rusted like it came from a part.

One more recommendation is to put a light somewhere near the men's porta potty for night time and check to replace soap dispenser. There never is any soap.

Other than that, I love this place and I will continue...

So I haven’t been here for over a year and my boyfriend and I went for Sunday Funday and met up with a few friends. We arrived there at 5 and left at 8. Our tab was $147.00 for 3 whiskey sprites, 3 dos xx and 1 fireball shot. Mind you it was whiskey sprite not top shelf.

When closing the tab, my bf gets a $6.00 tab to sign off. Obviously there was something wrong so when he asked the bartender she told him that “ His Gf” had closed the previous tab of over $100.00 dollars because that’s how their system works. He was so confused so we leave and asks me if I had closed our tab once we got home, I immediately said no never closed any tabs.

When he sees his bank statement he was charged $147 dollars!! They never gave us an itemized receipt neither did anyone sign off on the other “100 dollar tab” I don’t know if the bartender tipped herself or what. Will definitely NOT be going back with all their sketchy stuff. Same thing happened to our friends that same day with their tab. Apparently they spent 178.00.

If you’re ready to spen over 100 bucks on a couple drinks...

STAY AWAY!! I ordered a $3 well drink, and the server asked me for $4. When I questioned the amount, she insisted it was for tax. Clearly, 8.25% of $3 is not $1!!! When I inquired that it cannot be tax, she then informed me that they round up to the dollar and didn't provide change back. As I got the receipt, there was an additional 14 cents non-cash fee added to the total amount even though I was going to pay in cash. When I questioned the server about the charge, she couldn't answer and ask me to speak to the manager. A person by the name of Jimmy came over and seemed to be more of a bouncer than a manager. He also couldn't give me a feasible answer. I inquired if the Texas State Comptroller knew about this over charge and left the establishment. It is clear that the server was trying to get more of a tip by overcharging, but the establishment was also overcharging customers by adding a non-cash fee in all circumstances. As prior law enforcement, I will address this malfeasance to not only the State Comptroller...
