San Pedro Social - Leather Bar in San Jose

San Pedro Social combines a leather-themed bar atmosphere with recreational fun, offering bowling, pool, foosball, and arcade games. The dual-bar setup and spacious seating make it ideal for groups, though service during peak times can be slow. Happy hour pricing and a lively DJ contribute to its appeal, especially for post-work gatherings or weekend outings.

While the cocktail selection leans sweet, some drinks like the Dragonbreath have earned praise for consistency. Food options are standard but reliable, though pricing—particularly for beer—may feel steep. The transformative vibe when the neon lights dim and music cranks up adds to its charm, though conversation can be challenging in louder settings.

The cocktails weren't strong enough. I never mind something tasting like juice that I would give to a child otherwise, but we felt nothing and even asked for extra shots but didn't receive any changes. It was a very sweet cocktail. We got a half vegetarian and half combination Pizza that was incredible though!! It is a different vibe when they turn off the neon chandelier and turn up the music. Almost too loud to talk, but perfect for dancing!!

Went to this place last night. Very disappointing charged me $14.80 for a pint of beer. Big price gouging for the game I guess. Nothing special here! I'll never complain about my $9 beer at Smoke Eaters... Should have just went to San Pedro square. If you want to waste your money and your time go ahead... You've been warned

Went downstairs with my old friends and had a fun time playing foosball and hanging out. There are several bowling lanes, pool table and video games and a bar. My only gripe is the bar downstairs was not properly staffed. There was only one bartender, so you had to stand in a long line, and it took at least 10 minutes to get to the front. Many of the beers on tap were also not working. But at least happy hour pricing was great.

The place has a 2 drink minimum for the privilege of playing their $2 a game pool table. The drinks were super expensive but I guess that's to pay for the free video games they offer. I think this place is a good idea, but they don't have to price gouge the people. I don't think we'll be going back. There was a small bowling alley downstairs also.

disclaimer: we have not tried their food. however, they have standard american bar fare: fries, mozzarella sticks, chicken tenders, pizza, etc. can't really mess those up drinks are subpar. dragonites dragonbreath was good the first time I had it a few months ago when there with some friends, but apparently inconsistent because this time it tasted like juice. I prefer my cocktails to still allow the taste of the liquor to come through - particular in a mezcal drink, that's kinda why people order mezcal drinks. my husband tried their old fashioned, and he didn't like it either. if you prefer a spirit-forward old fashioned, too, this one isn't for you. he found it to be too sweet

Chill spot on a Friday night. My friends and I sang karaoke and had a great time! Their drinks are also good!

Nice place to hangout after work or even a night out with friends. I love that they have a DJ, few games to play & a bowling alley. They have 2 bars, food & plenty of seating space. I think you can also host a party. It's a great addition to the San Jose nightlife. Will be back.
