Stopped here while visiting nyc. The decor is beautiful. They had no availability for tables but we snagged seats at the bar. We ordered from the brunch menu. I got the chicken and waffle sandwich. The flavor was good but the waffle was a bit too hard. The sandwich was huge so once I reheated it, the waffle softened up and was much more enjoyable. I'd definitely go back.

Finally grabbed dinner here and the overall experience was positive. Unfortunately the entire main dining area was closed for a private function but the very few tables in the lobby area (this restaurant is in the Walker Hotel), were available. We missed the happy hour drink deals by just 2 minutes! as we were seated at a comfortable table. I browsed the menu and enjoyed the live Big Band music that kicked off. The ambience resembled a speakeasy or library which translated to cozy, charming and sultry due to the dim lights.. The dinner menu wasn't as extensive as the brunch menu and I found it a bit difficult to make a selection. Since I don't eat red meat, it left me with three choices from the main section: Risotto, Halibut or the Organic Chicken. Not feeling any of those selections, Pizza was the choice for both of us. As far as drinks were concerned, i was craving an iced cold can of Diet Coke with my pizza. Unfortunately, they only carry the draft variety which I really don't like so I was forced to order an unsweetened Iced Tea since I was going alcohol free. There were some good wine and beer choices on the menu. Next time. Before the pizza arrived, two hot and flaky mini brioche were brought to the table. These were SO good and irresistible. Starting with a carb knowing my meal would be rich in carbs wasn't my intention, but these delightful rolls were complimentary and too good to pass up. The Margarita pizza arrived shortly thereafter. Six slices/12 inches in diameter and excellent. Great balance of cheese to sauce ratio with a nice thin crust although I wish it had more of a crispy hold to it since the slices kind of flopped down. Truth be told, I wish we chose an appetizer and shared one pizza because it was quite big for me but Id recommend the Margarita ($20) as an excellent choice. I'd like to return again to try other selections on the menu for dinner. I lean towards favoring Society Cafe when it comes to Brunch but overall, this is a great spot for a delicious meal at any time of the day.

My color scheme! Lovely service and atmosphere. Great food. They should bring back the chicken breakfast sandwich that others posted on Yelp...it looked really different (standout) and good. I was sad they didn't have it so I settled for what I usually don't eat -- pancakes since they came with fruit. I had to take 2 of the pancakes to-go AS THERE WERE 4! lol that's a lot! Ultimately, I thought it was clean inside and a professional, relaxed environment. Some ppl were working on laptops, most others were dining, and chatter was all appropriate to-table level. The restrooms were very tidy and not too tiny. This is a nice, secluded place...pricey, but nice. Go, enjoy!!

Cane here last year, for a special Gemini themed dinner for my birthday. When I walked, I noticed the sitting area, and the inside was very nice and cozy. There's a bar towards the back. The staff was great. Along with the Gemni dining theme, a fortune teller was included , and i had to indulge. The dining area is towards the back, and the chef did really well with the menu. Everything was tasty, and I enjoyed the moment as well as the event. All of the birthday guests were given a souvenir bag to take home with Gemini trinkets. I would def return.

Comfortable seating, nice staff, good pancakes, and I like that they don't rush you. It's a pretty spot within the Walker Hotel.

Beautiful space. Dimly lit. Greeted by Sara who took care of our first round of drinks!! Thank you Sara. Came here for the astrological dinner for Aquarius. Being that my birthday was last week. What an amazing experience. They had our table set up so beautifully with little trinkets and small gifts that leaned towards the Aquarius. Amethyst stones. Nice scented perfumes. An Aquarius Book. Very nicely put together. The chef came out and explained his choices of dishes to us. Everything had its very own acquired taste to it. The drinks that we had to pay for were so good. I had the Society no.5 which was a bourbon cocktail. So good. Overall a great memorable experience! Had a lovely time here.

Society Cafe is tucked away inside a hotel and has a very nice and cozy vibe! I loved the ambiance and decor of the restaurant. The furniture was all very sturdy and comfy. The staff was very accommodating and friendly. The food was not bad. It was by no means mindblowing, but pretty affordably priced. While the berries and whipped cream on the Olive Oil Pancakes were great, the pancakes themselves were soggy and floppy. I wished they had a little more structural integrity and didn't become mush once I took a bite. It's a great option for a casual brunch.

I had brunch here and absolutely loved it, one of the best brunches I have had in New York. Tried their market omlette which came with salad and potatoes which was delicious. It tasted fresh and light. Their chocolate croissant was average and orange juice was very smooth without any pulp (but was not worth $8 in my opinion) The interior was very classy and well-lit. The service was great, very attentive throughout the meal.
