I love this spot for morning coffee, although I have heard that the cocktails and live music at night are amazing too. My favorite drinks are the seasonal iced apple crisp chai (it is on the sweeter side) and the velvet americano (love that cold foam!). I also tried a bagel this morning and it did not disappoint!
This is an absolutely charming, stylish cocktail bar with live piano music, great location and ambiance. The cocktails were insanely good. Worth every penny for this little indulgence and can’t wait to go back. All of us ordered off of the seasonal menu, which was curated using classic fall flavors and inspiration. We ordered five different cocktails and each one was delicious, nuanced, and really, really beautiful presentation. My personal favorite was the Paris fog, but all...read full review

Anderson Social is a restaurant in San Luis Obispo that provides an unbelievable experience that is truly unique. It is described as more like getting to participate in a movie scene than a bar. The restaurant is an absolutely charming, stylish cocktail bar with live piano music, live jazz, a great location, and ambiance. The atmosphere is so wonderful, and the interior design is notable. It feels like being transported to a cafe in Montmartre. The two stories for seating allow for a range of intimacy and conversation levels, since the music can still be heard while on the balcony without having to shout above it.
The cocktails are insanely good, with beautiful presentation, and are worth every penny for the little indulgence. The seasonal menu is curated using classic fall flavors and inspiration. Specific drinks mentioned include the seasonal iced apple crisp chai, the velvet americano, the Paris fog, the mezcal drink, the bourbon based drink, the No Notes bourbon creation, a traditional Manhattan, and the Necromancer. The coffee is delicious at a good price, and the coffee and pastries are good in the morning. A bagel did not disappoint. There is not a huge selection of things to eat but enough to hold you over. The servers were so welcoming and offered first time drinks, including complimentary welcome drinks such as an aperol pineapple juice shot. The restaurant values sustainability with cloth napkins and wash cloths in the bathroom. The cover goes towards the musicians.
