Join us on Tuesday, October 1st at 2:00 PM at 122 W. Bank St. for their Ribbon Cutting & Grand Opening.
Come help us welcome them in style, enjoy the celebration, and show some Chamber love!  Be sure to check them out — and don’t forget to tell them the Chamber sent you! 

Update:

A Note From the Southern Social Team

We know things haven’t been perfect — and we just want to say: please be patient with us as we continue to open and grow.

We hear you and we’re taking your feedback to heart. Every day we’re working to smooth out the kinks, train new team members, and build the kind of experience we can all be proud of here in Griffin.

ike so many others in this industry, we’re understaffed, but our crew is giving 110% to serve you the best we can. We have exciting plans ahead — extended hours including lunch, private events, and even our golf simulators and other fun events — but we want to roll them out the right way to ensure the quality you deserve.
Your patience and continued support mean everything to us. We promise — we’re working hard to make Southern Social better every single day.
