Blue Scrumpy left this review about Gas Street Social

Modern bar/restaurant in the Gas Street Basin and part of the Mailbox complex. Food appears to be the mainstay here and all other customers on a Sunday lunchtime appeared to be here to eat. A podium at the entrance invited us to wait to be seated but with no staff around, we headed straight to the bar which can be found against the right-hand wall.

The drinks range here is a little disappointing. SALT Loom & Alpacalypse are the pick of the keg beer selection. There were a couple of ciders and some fancy lagers. Our Loom was served to us by a friendly barmaid who asked us to take a seat whilst she poured the beers. She then duly brought them to our table.

The interior is modern with an outdoor seating area overlooking the canal basin at the front. I'm fairly sure that our visit here will be a one off.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Gas Street Social

One of many bars and restaurants on the three-level structure linking the Mailbox and The Cube. This one is in the middle section and has seating out on the terrace overlooking the canal (although in winter the tables are covered by unusual illuminated 'igloos' / geodesic domes). The interior is mostly set aside for dining, with a mix of semi-modern furniture and a row of booths on the side wall opposite the counter. Illumination levels are low, although the festive lighting helps a bit in December. Six of the craft keg taps on the bar-back were in use, with a fairly standard selection of beers and ciders, but on my visit Tiny Rebel's Easy Livin' (£5.90) was available as a guest.
