Roaring Social

This place has very good ambience with live performances. The staff were friendly and service was great. The crowd starts coming in from 11:00pm. Will definitely recommend this place to people who want to enjoy their night by dancing and chilling out.

I went for my first time last night, and had an immensely incredible experience! The atmosphere/decor was so fun and unique, the music was really jiving, and Rachel and Aldo were incredible bartenders! They provided some of the best service at the bar that I have ever had. They madr fantastic recommendations and drinks! I can't wait to go back!

Me and my gf come here a lot. We love the atmosphere the bartenders are great, music is pretty awesome, but 2 of the hosts always asks if we’ve been here before / if we know the password. The previous guy hosts always remembered us they were just more welcoming. But other than that pretty awesome place.

Fun, fun, fun! We enjoyed our first visit with our favorite couple to listen to a live music, our second visit with the same couple for live music AND Karaoke, and then our third visit with the same couple and another favorite couple who were our guests, to also listen to live music. Each time, the experience began with a warm greeting from the first host, who checked for our reservations. We were then directed down a flight of stairs to another more unique check in “experience.” Upon our entrance, the second host gave us each necklaces, and the real fun began! Twice we’ve chosen table seating in the center area and once we chose lounge area seating on the right side. Wherever you elect to sit, you will be able to enjoy views of the stage and of course hear and enjoy great music. Over the course of each evening, we ordered food and were pleased with the quality, tastes and portions. Our drinks and cocktails were delicious. We've always enjoyed the bands, listening to them play, as well as dancing alongside other patrons. Easily one of the best Speak Easy’s!

The food was good, but a couple of things we attempted to order from the menu weren't available. Service was a bit on the slower side. It took about 25 mins to get someone to take our drink order after being seated. The drinks we ordered were quite yummy. Live music was pretty fun. Was a cool vibe overall, and I would go back, hoping it was an off night.

My friend took me here, so we could do some dancing. The waiter was amazing, and the band was awesome. I would say the only thing that I didn't like is that they over serve drinks and don't enforce no drinks on the dance floor. I had several drinks spilled on me down my back and had a confrontation with a guy standing on the dance floor,they need more bouncers.

I wasn’t sure what to expect so I was pleasantly surprised. The drink menu was very different offering combinations of unique liquors while also providing the options for any drink from their full bar. The live entertainment was amazing, performed by a 3 man band covering a nice mix of 70’s and 80’s hits. (A bit of caution that it was extremely loud and challenging to talk with my party.) As for the food, I thought the happy hour charcuterie board was a little light on crackers but it was a nice starter. We got chicken skewers and jalapeno poppers and they were amazing! Overall this was a great experience and we will be going back.

Great speakeasy hidden in downtown Alpharetta. Fun place to be. Only downside is when music is on, its extremely loud. Karaoke was a blast. I would recommend the vocals be turned up as they were drowned out by the acoustics.

The food at Roaring Social is overpriced for the quality, but there is a lot more to this place than their menu so I need to break this one down. LOCATION: Roaring Social is in the heart of downtown Alpharetta, by the Hamilton Hotel. It's a great location and there is a free parking deck a block away. VIBE: 5-stars for the decor and overall atmosphere here! It's a speakeasy, requiring you to go down a flight of stairs and give a secret passcode to get in. It's dimly lit with comfortable couches along the walls. It's got a great feel and some people really get into the theme, wearing sequins, flapper dresses, and beads. Other people were wearing more casual dresses, shirts and polos. There is a dress code, so no athletic wear, etc. FOOD & DRINKS: 3-stars for the food and drinks. They have a large cocktail menu, with some creative drinks, but they struggled to make basics on the Thursday night we were there. The espresso martini was probably the worst one I've ever had. I took one sip and had to send it back. There was no foam on top and the waiter said he didn't think they used espresso in their espresso martinis. We ordered all 3 of the skewers, chicken sliders, fries and Cesar salad. The shrimp skewers were the best. The chicken and steak ones were dry and lacked flavor. The sliders were okay, but not great and the prices overall seemed high for the mediocre quality. Fortunately, we weren't here for the food, we were here for the dueling piano performance which was amazing. Our waiter was friendly and attentive. ENTERTAINMENT: 5-stars for entertainment! They have mini-bowling, which was tons of fun. We played a round of bowling when we first arrived, before sitting down for dinner and the show. They have different shows/entertainers throughout the month, so check their website for the schedule. We saw the Dueling Pianos, and they were great!! They took requests, and we had a blast singing along. TLDR: Go for the entertainment! It's a lot of fun. Don't expect amazing food, but definitely expect a good time overall.

Oh this place is trendy and oh so fun! Came here for a birthday party and had a blast. The food and drinks were both good and I loved the ambiance of the speakeasy. I do wish more seating was included and not every seating had to be paid for, but this was definitely the place for the 40+ crowd. Take an uber here and back home and you'll have a great time.

What a fun and lovely spot for a girls night! Grab your feather and tassels and get ready to dance. We got the bottle service, and having our friend's name/HBD on the sign was a fun treat! The food was good, drinks were strong, and live music was LIVELY. What more can you ask for?

I love this place, it has a live music and speakeasy vibe. Keep coming back here to do Friday "alterations"

I went for my first time last night, and had an immensely incredible experience! The atmosphere/decor was so fun and unique, the music was really jiving, and Rachel and Aldo were incredible bartenders! They provided some of the best service at the bar that I have ever had. They madr fantastic recommendations and drinks! I can't wait to go back!

I recently celebrated my engagement night with my fiancé, family and friends--and it was absolutely perfect! From the moment we arrived, our waiter (Sincere) and the manager (Mike) went above and beyond to make our night unforgettable! We couldn't have asked for a better place to celebrate such a special milestone!

If you love to feel like you're part of an exclusive club or you're a fan of secret codes and want to go back in time to the prohibition days, check out Roaring Social! This is a trendy place with ambience, servers dressed in time period clothing, live music, trendy furnishings to allow you to be taken back in time. The lighting, the disco ball sparkling from the ceiling, the weekly schedule of entertainment will draw you in to make this experience one that you will want to repeat! Roaring Socials website is constantly updated to give current information on musicians performing. There is a cover charge after a certain hour but believe me it's worth it! If you have a large group call ahead and make a reservation. They have high top tables, regular tables, lounging couches for group settings and guess what, a small bowling alley! Meals, appetizers, wine, beer, mixed drinks and list of top shelf bourbons and fantastic service! Ashlan kept our drinks coming and served them with a smile!

We had an EXCEPTIONAL time here for my dear friends birthday. I flew into town to visit her and she could not stop taking about this place that she's been meaning to try. It did not disappoint! I am *obsessed* with speakeasies and the creativity that goes into the aesthetic. This is the first time that I've been to one that had an alterations theme! When you arrive, you are greeted at the host stand, given beads, champagne, and a ticket to get your clothing items downstairs. You walk down the stairs into a room full of different mannequins and fashions from the past. You pick up the phone on the wall and say you're here for your alterations and it opens up a door to your left that is the entrance to the bar. Inside, the space is so cute and 1920s! There are prohibition photos and a nice stage for the band. I let them know if was her birthday ahead of time and they brought out of a complimentary bottle of champagne!!!! Amazing The service was impeccable. Really. There was a gentleman that was super drunk hovering around our table asking us a ton of questions and within a few minutes our waiter and management came out to privately check on us and ask if we were being bothered. I was not bothered by the gentleman but just the fact that they noticed that and acted upon it immediately is really phenomenal! I wish more establishments were attentive to making women feel safe in bars. They really exceeded all expectations! I highly recommend visiting this place for any occasion!

Roaring Social is a must visit if you're in downtown Alpharetta! There's a $10 cover fee which increases to $20 after 10:30PM to pay for the live band. The band was a lot of fun signing oldies and bangers. The security guys will provide the password before you head downstairs to enter the speakeasy. Overall it's a sophisticated bar and wasn't full of college riff raff - haha. Come dance and enjoy some great drinks!

I've been looking forward to coming here for a while and finally got to check it out. It did not disappoint! You first check in at the front counter and you need to have a passcode to get in. It's a really neat place! The food was very good and the drinks were perfectly done as well. I ordered a Lemon Drop Martini and an Espresso Martini for dessert. They have a mini bowling area in the back which is a lot of fun. There's also smaller areas and rooms for private parties and events. There's a small dance floor and a dj. There's plenty of seating for those who want to relax and enjoy the environment. This is a great Speakeasy in Alpharetta!!

This place is amazing! Mercantile Social down the road said they were closed while I tried to call multiple times. I called Roaring social trying to make a last-minute reservation for my group to relocate. They were extremely accommodating to our group! Amazing speakeasy aspect of the bar was 10 times better than any night we could've imagined. Drinks and food were spectacular and service was impeccable. As a hospitality professional I greatly value having this kind of experience at a bar. It was decorated wonderfully for the holiday, as well as had fabulous dueling pianos live music. I will be back and we'll definitely recommend to countless others!

Came here for my neighbors Birthday celebration on a Wednesday night! We had a great time ! I love the entrance to it ! Karaoke night was super fun! We loved playing bowling as well! I would definitely come back!

The food was decent. The fries were extremely over salted but the steak skewers, calamari and crab cakes were good, especially the skewers. The place has a great ambiance and is a ton of fun. Want to have a really good time? Don't go with your 80 year old father in law and have to leave at 9:30. . I imagine things really get going a little later. I never remember the name of server but Geneva (Switzerland) was great, very personable and attentive to the group. Cannot wait to go back.

You have to experience this place! Found it on a whim with a colleague. We loved everything about it! Plenty of parking. Such a fun way to get in... you have to say you are here for alterations. The staff is fantastic! The vibe is so chill and romantic. Great date night or corporate event spot. Drinks are amazing and food is good.

The Ambiance is great and so fun! It was a little hard to get in at first but I called and the lady was very helpful how to find the bar. All the cocktails I had were good and I went for the live piano and he was great! Haven't had the food yet but I'll be back.

Food, services, ambience and entertainment - A+++ Most excellent!! Enjoyed Dueling Pianos!!

I had a really good time. The food came out really fast. The calamari and barbacoa fries were delicious. The spinach dip was just okay. The skewers were mediocre at best. The ambiance was cool and the customer service was acceptable. For the attire, I would dress nice. We celebrated a birthday, and it was a great place to do so. We enjoyed the band Grey Sunday.

Why such a small dance floor? The first two times I went to Roaring Social, it was AWESOME. The place looks amazing, great live bands, dancing, just a cool vibe. But the last three times I've been there, they filled the dance floor with tables so people only have an area of about six feet by 20 feet to dance. I was there Friday night and the band was killing it. Everyone wanted to to dance. Unfortunately, they couldn't Those that tried were jammed together so all you could do was sort of shuffle two inches to the left and three inches to the right. And there weren't even people sitting in the tables that were on the dance floor. So, instead of this being a really great place to have a drink, see a band AND dance, it's really just another place (like many) to have a drink and see a band. Hey Roaring Social management, as a general rule, the performers shouldn't have more room than the audience. It's like they don't want people to dance. It's like the plot of Footloose.

We went here for a 97th birthday, private party. Lots of fun! Great staff and the live music was an absolute blast. I haven't danced in years and we got out there and dance!

Not worth $20. Bartenders were rude and atmosphere was strange, definitely don't plan on being back.

Great atmosphere. Good DJ and performers. Good drinks too! Recommend for groups and parties. I just celebrated my birthday there.

The bald bartender legitimately refused to make my drink. Shook his head at me and said no. Nice to know what's important, like it's ok man it takes maybe 30 seconds to make an old fashioned.

This is a bar in a basement. Not quite a speakeasy. While it's novel to hit a button on a old phone to get in, we were expecting a larger cocktail menu. There were only 14 specialty cocktails on the menu. I ordered the float on and it was super sweet and the root beer foam made it taste almost medicinal and the syrup was all over the place. The paper straw got soggy so fast, making the drink even more cumbersome. My husband ordered a mint julep and his response was "Meh." My expectations for this place was too high. As it was recommended to me by folk who probably never experienced a true speakeasy.

This speak easy with boutique bowling, live music, craft cocktails and finger food is a happy find! We came here with our work group of 10 to relax and unwind after a long day of strategy meetings. It is located right next to the hiltons curio hotel the Hamilton in down town Alpharetta. It is a speak easy, reservations are better then walk ups if you want to play their boutique bowling or get a table. We had a party of 10 and we bowled for an hour... small lanes, a ball like a Bocce ball for a bowling ball, pins on strings, and automatic scoring. A lounge like area to sit in with full bar service. It was fun! From there we had a lounge like area with couches and a coffee table for our eating area. The menu is all aps and "finger" food. The fries are the bomb! Like a cross between a chip and a steak fry... kaplow!! Man these were good! The meat skewers of beef or chicken were good as well. We tried the charcuterie plate... it was ok... we had the wings... I didn't get any but was told they were good. Then we had some deep fried gnocchi... these were strange... just not what I expected I guess... not horrible but not what I would order again. While we were there they had live music and karaoke. It was a really good time! The decor is swanky and fun, it gets crowded, but there is lots of room. Service was good... food was fast, drinks flowed.. it was a great time and I recommend all try this location for a seriously big fun to be had by all.

Fun place!! We stayed at the Hamilton hotel for my daughters wedding and did not even know of this place until someone across the street recommended us to go. So happy they did! We had a group of about 25 people and they sat us in their couch areas with our own server. It was karaoke night and my friend killed it! The drinks were great, the server was great, and so much fun! We did not try any food, or apps if they serve it there so don't know much of that. But fun, cool spot if your in town.

I wish i had read the reviews before i came... This place is a WASTE OF YOUR TIME. Sure, the vibe is nice, the phone to enter in is fun, but everything passed that is a waste. My GF ordered a Margherita so bad we had to send it back, and had an Old Fashioned that was a waste of money. The cocktails are absolutely overpriced and underwhelming, and the food is a disgrace towards the pricing. This place is a dive bar, and every review that displays it as such is 100% accurate. We waited over an hour for our food, and requested our bill be refunded based off how terrible of an experience this was for our date night. WASTE OF TIME- take our advice and go somewhere else!

Very cool speakeasy! Live band, mini bowling, AWESOME craft cocktails!! VERY VERY cool private entry and fun password. Highly recommend an evening here!

Wowwww!!! This was such a fun date night experience, from the beginning to the end! The atmosphere was on and poppin from the time we entered until the time we left! The service was really good, and the food and drinks were delicious. The crowd was diverse, the band was on point, playing a variety of music and the dance floor remained packed! We had a great time and can't wait to go back!

Had a really great time. Definitely come when there's live music! The Aviation is a must have drink. Loved it. The hummus was HUGE, highly recommend. They don't take reservations...but if you call...they might .

Great place to enjoy what was a hidden place during prohibition, well if it existed at that time. Bar, bowling, restaurant, DJ, a minuscule dance floor but the spirit was there and we had a lot of fun for Halloween.

This place is so fun!!! We went with a group and had a great time singing karaoke with the band. Drinks were good too

Second Tuesday you got to see Joe Grandsen. It's the best show this side of Vegas! $20.00 cover but well worth it. Great night of music dancing and fun!

Servers are horribly rude and push through the crowd while cussing at the patrons to get the F out of the way. All of the seating areas are private so that leaves you standing in the way no matter where you go. We were told to move several times. I had a drink spilled on my shoe by a server rushing by, and my husband got an entire tray of drinks spilled on him by another server. No apology to either of us. The atmosphere and theme is cute and the manager seemed to be involved but being cussed at and spilled on is not expectable.

Great place, band and atmosphere.. Aldo was our host for our table and he was super attentive, friendly and on point ! Thank you for a fabulous time !

Cheesy, touristy vibe, overpriced, mediocre food and cocktails. Much nicer bar upstairs in the hotel, and much better options within walking distance in downtown Alpharetta. The only thing it has going for it is occasionally decent live music - there's not much of that in Alpharetta.

First time visiting, and called ahead to understand the process as Roaring Social is marketed as a speakeasy. What was shared over the phone varied from what we were told when attempting to gain entry. After speaking to the manager, we were able to enter even though they were booked. Glad that he accommodated us, but unfortunate that the staff member over the phone would not share the same details for entry that the manager and bouncer did. It's never good when a manager has to be contacted to assist. Both the bouncer and manager were pleasant, but the misinformation was off-putting. After heading downstairs, like you'd expect at a speakeasy, you speak into the phone or to staff member with the appropriate verbiage to enter the bar. Well welcome to the roaring 20s. The bar and wait staff are dressed circa 1920s, and so we're a few guests. The live band was great - singing well-known R&B hits from the 80s-now. The drinks were great - I had the Purple Lady and Bell Bottom, which was enough, unless I wanted to feel the effect of a third drink the next day. Although the area was packed, we found a few seats at the bar. After speaking to the hostess regarding the empty couches along the wall, we were told they were reserved. However, she told us if any tables became available (tables are first-come, first-served, and all completely occupied) she'd come get us. Not even ten minutes later, did she appear at the end of the bar to let us know she had a table, right up front near the band -- so appreciated that level of service. Ordered the meatballs, which I incorrectly assumed would be from Sorella Vicina upstairs at The Hamilton; they were not. The meatballs were hard; similar to what you'd expect if the meat was overworked during mixing. The patio and mozzarella flatbread with chicken was much better. There wasn't much room on the dance floor to dance with all the patrons who were there dancing. Not a bad thing for the band, which showed how much everyone was enjoying the music, but bad when your table is on the edge of the dance floor, and you either get bumped repeatedly or have a drink spilled on you. Now that we better understand the rules for entry, layout, etc., we'd return. It was a fun night where my husband and my friend's husband were able to enjoy the football games on the huge TVs at the bar, while also enjoying the band.

We came here on a Friday evening around 6 for some drinks with friends. It wasn't too crowded yet and we were able to get a table with cute chairs and a couch. Our waitress was very helpful when picking out drinks and wine, and was very attentive throughout the night. Theme/decor: Going into the speakeasy themed bar, you get a ticket, go downstairs into the "alterations" room and use the phone to give the password to be let in behind a locked door. The decor and furniture took you back to the 20s and made for a great night with friends. Drinks and food: I got the bubbly bath cocktail which came in a mini bathtub with a mini rubber duck. It was tasty and cute! My friend got the Frizzy Ritz and it also had a great presentation but was a tad strong. Before we got there our friends got the Brussels sprouts and they said they were delicious. We also tried the fries which were seasoned and cheesy - 10/10. When we first got there there was a single musician which was very good. Around 8 a band started with 70-90s music. The dance floor was a lot of fun and we had a great time. We didn't try the bowling, but would like to in the future! Get there early if you want a table, once the band started it got very crowded and we were happy to have had our spot. We had a "roaring" great time and will definitely be back!

Service was great, food was fine.. No AC the night we were there. $1000 minimum and everyone was leaving bc it was so hot and humid in the main VIP area. When we asked the wait staff how they were doing, they said we've gotten used to it because it's been like this for weeks. We spoke to the GM who was condescending and rude. When the checks came, the tab included a 23% event surcharge that wasn't discussed and the average tab for two people was more than $400. I had super high hopes for this place. Servers were good, atmosphere had high hopes but we were taken advantage of. No AC, $1000 min and high high high drink prices. This place did NOT live up to the hype.

My friends and I had the best time dancing away to our 80s and 90s fav songs. Great selection of drinks! Please ask Rachel at the bar near the bowling alley to make you "The Rachel" - a berry infused gin drink with chambord and lemon . As a vegan/vegetarian food choices were pretty avg and you'd need to rely on street parking around the place. But it's an interesting place for sure!

Why yes.... Speakeasy tour 2021 continues tonight I am with my dear Missourian. Reservations made we come into the "RoCo clothier entrance" gave our name and received our card... Down the stairs we go and at the bottom we see "clothier after hours door" with NO HANDLE On the opposite wall is a rotary phone that states "press button and lift receiver" When you do, their after hours door opens and you enter the Roaring Social... Live music every night and bubbly baths with adorbs rubber ducky as an aperitif... My coworker and I split the meatballs (love that scoop of Ricotta) and the grilled Mediterranean seasoned chicken and steak skewers...sigh... so good and Keto friendly(ish)... RoSo thanks bunches...

I am so disappointed at this place. I was there a couple weeks ago with my friend visiting from CA and my husband to see a band. Food and drinks were expensive. In my opinion my friend was targeted by someone there who was prejudice. She is a black women. She was asked to leave for grabbing someone's neck. This was a complete lie and never happened. I have called and emailed the corporate office with no response. We will never go back here.

This place is AWESOME!! I think it's one of my favorites!! It's a must visit when we are in Alpharetta.

Roaring Social is a cleverly camouflaged and well-executed secret speakeasy that operates on an IYKYK (if you know you know) basis. The space is far more expansive than you would imagine and nicely decorated with plenty of stylish but comfy seating to view the stage featuring live music artists. Reservations are for 2-hour blocks so plan accordingly if you want to have a table for the live music. The DJ spun an amazing mix of upbeat and feel-good 70s-90s music. Our server Khan was helpful with our menu questions and was attentive without being intrusive. The food and drinks were all flavorful and tasty. We enjoyed the refreshing Pearlandia and the tasty Catcall. Neither the delicious chicken and steak skewers nor bacon-wrapped jalapeno poppers were as warm as I would have liked but that wasn't a dealbreaker. It still gives 5-stars.

Awesome ambience ! Karaoke with "The Vibe" hits the right spot ! Good cocktails , great appetizers and finger food.

Great spot! We had our company kickoff party here. Can't wait to return! I'm a big fan of speak easy spots and this was one of the best I've visited.

If you want a dark touristy New Orleans cheesy bar with live music that could be heard from the Russian space station while selling over priced drinks.. This is your spot. The staff are not personable even a tad and who ever is training the bouncers on removal and deescalation.... do better. These guys are amateur rodeo clowns. Perfect if you like a college club scene that is shoulder to shoulder in someones basement with no lights.

We came here on a Saturday at 6:30pm and was able to get a bowling lane. They do not take reservations for bowling ever (unless you have a big group) and only take reservations for dining on for Tuesday nights. It is duck pin bowling (so smaller than regular bowling) and it was a blast! You enter down stairs and yes, you pick up a phone and give a password to get in, but they tell you the password upstairs. I wonder if it is someone's job to answer that call all night? Ha! We bowled for a hour and had drinks and appetizers. The charcuterie board was great! The service in this area was good and we had an issue with our lane so they gave us 10 extra minutes. We then shifted to the main room where couches are all reserved and tables are first come first served. The tables are all 4-tops, but we saw people adding chairs for more people. We found a high top next to the stage with a great view of the dance floor as well. We pulled up extra stools for our party of 6. The service here was terrible as it took 30 minutes to get our drinks. They were not that crowded at this time of night so I wonder what it's like later on. They comped our drinks, but it was too late, we couldn't chance spending the rest of the night here. We exited and it was a discreet exit that puts you out in the alley leading to the courtyard of the hotel.

Shika went out of her way to take care of her. Please look out for her. Made our experience one of a kind!

My friend and I went here for the first time last night and we had a blast. There was a live band and the crowd here was pretty lively dancing and singing. If you want a table, make a reservation otherwise you may be stuck standing at the bar. Our waiter was nice and attentive and the manager was making sure the experience was positive. There is also bowling for additional fee which was also fun.
