About
In the heart of Midtown Manhattan, Social 45 brings a touch of Parisian elegance to New York's cocktail scene. Located in the recently renovated Sofitel New York, the bar combines French hospitality, Art Deco-inspired interiors, and a cocktail menu that pays tribute to two of the world's great drinking cities.
Just a short walk from Broadway and Times Square, Social 45 caters to hotel guests, theatregoers and New Yorkers seeking a sophisticated setting for an aperitif or late-night drink.
The bar's design, conceived by HBA San Francisco as part of Sofitel New York's late-2025 renovation, takes inspiration from the Art Deco architecture and decorative traditions shared by Paris and New York. Curved brass detailing, sculptural furniture and plush seating evoke the atmosphere of a Parisian salon, while the contemporary finishes give the space a distinctly Manhattan character.
The cocktail menu, titled "A Tale of Two Cities", explores the relationship between Paris and New York through drinks that combine familiar cocktail structures with modern techniques and unexpected ingredients. Alongside these house creations, Social 45 maintains the traditional hotel-bar repertoire, with Martinis, Manhattans and Champagne among the options for guests who prefer familiar classics.
