Babcock Social Pub

Went here with co-workers after - err, work. It's a bar. First bartender was not very friendly...like she had other places to be other than doing her job. Second bartender was good. I'm not a bar scene person, so probably won't come back on my own. Maybe if co-workers twisted my arm - FINE! I'll go again.

The waitress stated we had to open a tab not pay as you go. (Lie) I opened a tab but closed it with cash. Looked at my bank online. Saw my card was charged. There was also another charge for a different amount on another day. I only been there once ever. They would not credit by my card right away I had to make a claim with my bank.nIf you go do not give them your card.nWhen I spoke to the manager he stated you DO NOT HAVE OPEN A TAB.nWill not go back not even for the comp drinks they offered.nThey do not have my trust.nI would not recommend this place to a friend.

I’ve been really disappointed in our last couple of visits to Babcock Social. It has been our favorite bar since it opened, but not recently. A couple of weeks ago, my husband and I were turned away at the door because I had open-toed shoes. Unless there is a new finding that you can get COVID by wearing sandals, I’m not sure why that’s no longer allowed. We had to go all the way home to change my shoes and then come back, only to see people with open-toed shoes sitting at the tables! This weekend, we came by because our friend was having his birthday party. It was not crowded by any means. There were plenty of tables left throughout the night. Over the course of the night, we claimed 3 tables in the corner by the DJ. We were all 1 party. We did not go up to the bar and we wore masks when we went to the bathroom. But at 1am the bouncer told us to leave because we were standing too much! Seriously? Is the new rule that we have to stay seated? We were only interacting with our party and between our tables. I understand it’s the bouncers job to keep everyone in check, but if I’m staying within my party and at my tables, what is the issue there? What’s the point of going out if I have to stay seated? Might as well just stayed on my couch. I have looked at the executive orders regarding bars/restaurants reopening, I can’t see anywhere that it says we have to stayed seated. If I am wrong, I welcome the education. Thank you for hearing me out. Babcock Social has lost some regular customers.

Seemed like a cool place just stopped in for a titos and soda. Drink was good but not a cheap.

This establishment is awful. Poorly managed and smells terrible. Go here if you want to feel uneasy all night.
