Social Vibes

Score read updated:

mostly positive3 cited links; no ordinary customer sample verified.· high confidence

Sentiment score

69/ 100

The existing 69/100 and high confidence remain the historical read. This source check clarifies attribution without recalculating the score.

Score context

Eater’s dated guide praises the Irish coffee and describes a varied cocktail selection at The Dead Rabbit. The other cited pages did not provide matching venue evidence in this check, so they do not support the imported claims about declining appeal or customer consensus.

Staff score

74/ 100

Historical numerical staff assessment retained with its original date and confidence. This source check does not independently validate workplace conditions or recalculate that assessment.

Score context

The archived staff assessment cites employer recruitment material for a New York host role and a separate Dead Rabbit Group page. Both citations were unavailable in this check, so the recorded benefits and working conditions have not been freshly confirmed by employees or the employer.
