About This Event

Uptown Society invites you to Conversations Over Cocktails, an interactive happy hour created for people who want more than the usual after-work routine.


Hosted at Brownstone Social Lounge, the experience combines classic happy hour elements, affordable food and drink specials, music, casual socializing, and a lineup of interactive activities designed to keep the room engaged. Guests can stop in after work, grab a cocktail, order a bite, unwind with friends, meet new people, and participate as much or as little as they choose.


The evening is intentionally relaxed. There is space to mingle, enjoy the bar, catch up with coworkers, and settle into the room before the featured activities begin. Throughout the event, Uptown Society will introduce moments of audience participation, friendly competition, collaboration, and spontaneous conversation. You may be asked to help build an argument, solve part of a story, complete a thought, or test how connected the room really is.


Featured Activities | 5:30 PM - 7:30 PM

  • Piece of the Story
  • Make the Case
  • Finish the Thought
  • Reach Challenge

Brownstone Social Lounge will also offer its all-day happy hour specials:

  • $4 and $5 beers
  • $7 margaritas
  • $7 martinis
  • $7 tacos
  • $7 nachos
  • $7 wing baskets
  • $7 gourmet flatbreads
  • $27 hookahs

This is not a seminar, panel discussion, or traditional networking event. Conversations Over Cocktails is a social happy hour where drinks, food, conversation, and entertainment all share the spotlight.

Come decompress after work, enjoy the specials, meet someone new, and experience a happy hour that gives the room something to talk about.
