Paying to stand up all night is trash I’m never going back . Seats cost way too much for some bean bags

The Earl is a classic venue for watching live music. It is small and intimate and has great sound. I have been to several shows there in the past year and the sound has always been amazing. It feels like a club from the 80s but it is not dingy at all.

We were to another bar and someone referred us to this bar for good bar food. We wanted good burgers and fries so we stopped in to check them out. We both ordered burgers. I got the fries. She got the okra. The okra was abundant and good. I don’t like shoe string fries. They’re easy to over Fry and become to firm and even though they look abundant, they really aren’t that many. The beef in the burger tasted fresh and hand pattied, which we prefer but the burgers lacked seasoning. The fries had enough seasoning for the burger, I was fine-but technically the burger should be seasoned a bit more. They allow you to add toppings like serano Pepper(which is indeed spicy), grilled onions, grilled mushrooms, and cheese variations. Not a ton of topping change outs, but will do for a traditional burger. I do appreciate the toasted bun. The other plates coming out looked decent too, but for the most part- bread, meat and fries is the deal. Of course they have plenty of alcohol. The prices were fine, the speed was really good and the service was very nice all around. I really liked the overall feel. Good bar vibes. I like that they decorate for the holidays, that’s a sign that the business is trying. Restrooms walls graffiti is cool and on theme with the bar because people like to tag bar restrooms and if it’s already loaded, no one can tell if anyone added anything lol. The mirrors are graffiti also in which I prefer a regular mirror to look at myself, but with only two restrooms and two toilets the fact that we can’t look at ourselves in the mirror should speed us up, which helps everyone else. I’d come back and recommend this place for a drink, quick burger/sandwich and okra.

Great divey bar with a few pub grub, vegan options. The BEST staff. Great music, and stiff drinks. If I lived here, this would be a usual haunt for me. Updated from previous review on 2025-12-13
The Jens Lekman show was great and the bar was superlative.

My wife and I loved it!
The food us DELICIOUS. We had a burger and tots, and a BLT with onion rings.
The servers, bartenders, doorman and staff were ALL EXCEPTIONALLY FRIENDLY.
The atmosphere is eclectic fivr bar, my favorite.. cool decor, old school beers and band stickers everywhere.
We ame to see Lamont Landers and his band is PHENOMENAL. The sound system is great and I highly recommend this venue to see a band.
We will be back 😁

Groovy dive bar/restaurant with a music venue in the back and delicious food in the front. I came down from Chattanooga to hear a Brazilian jazz guitarist and my entire experience was awesome! 😎🤙
