Grungey - In A Good Way: I realy enjoyed The Social. I thought it was a bit small and crowded, but other than that I had a blast. They play really good music and the people that go are pretty interesting. The prices aren't bad and it is right on a streetcar line. If you like grungey places, check it out!

Above statement can be illustrated by the 905ers who may infiltrate this place on the weekend. A fun place to dance without abandon in your finest vintage threads. Outfits can be bought next door at 69 Vintage. DJ's DMT throw down mash ups on Saturdays....
