East Atlanta

Last weekend I ventured to East Atlanta. Below are the brief reviews.

Gravity Pub - I will just give this a mini review since we were just there for dinner. If you have not been before the place is small and we had to wait for a table. The food was suprisingly good for a hole in a wall. The beer was good and so was the selection. My friends and I were there early, so most of the crowd was groups of friends just out getting dinner and having a couple of drinks.

The Earl - This is one of my favorite bars in East Atlanta. The drinks here are always strong. The Jaeger Bombs are served in glas shot glasses, although from what I remember they use Monster instead of Red Bull. (BTW Monster tastes like crap with Jaeger) The crowd was a mix of the East Atlanta/Lil Five types and others. There were a couple groups of women out who we talked to and were friendly. The bartenders always pour a strong drink and remember what you want. In the miscellaneous category they have one of the most eccletic and kick ass jukeboxes around. The only downfall of the Earl is that is was a $50 cab ride home.

Overall I give it 4 vodka and sprites.

After the Earl we went over to the East Side Lounge.

East Side Lounge - The East Side Lounge is a bar downstairs and a small dance area upstairs. The bartenders were very good and poured a nice drink. I was a little intocicated at this point so I dont remember the quality of the jaeger bomb. The crowd was very nice, with many attractive and single girls. The one downfall is the conversation I had with one snobby ITP girl after I told her I lived in Smyrna. I am holding off on a final review since I was very drunk. I will post another review later when I go back some other time.

Future bars up next: Atkins Park Smyrna (my neighborhood pub) and an old favorite I have not gone to in a long time Dunwoody Tavern
