Not like it used to be....

IF there is a local leather club event going on, then you'll see a nice selection of leather. Even the expected busiest nights (Fri&Sat) is more and more of the lookie-loo boys from Machine downstairs with their female friends which come up to visit. No more dress code requirement, that is for sure. The BEST positive of the place is that a most of the bartenders are friendly. Music is typically good with a different genre for the night. It does make for a decent place to have a slow-night late evening drink.

Everyone has their own opinion; and I follow my opinion with my money.This establishment is in NO way a remembrance of any Eagle bar. The decor says dirty and dingy with a few pieces of old posters and "should have never seen the light of day"-junk. This may have been a TRUE Eagle at some point in the past, but sorry to say it is no more.

For the traveler...

It is my sincerest opinion that.... bars and clubs that have an internet presence need to keep it UP TO DATE! The "I'm working on it" splash screen with a calendar of events more than 4 months old, which tells me they haven't bothered to even put up a new calendar in that amount of time, is a waste of my time to even visit. Not every bar, I can fully accept, has a professional web programmer. But even when the bar advertises a myspace (or facebook) page - and the links there are more than 4 months old or closed for inactivity... *I* don't have time to spend my money with such a lackadaisical attitude towards their image. This is well beyond the internet age. I can't imagine that I'm the only one that gets their first impression of a bar/pub/club/restaurant/business from that business's representation - and whereas I make my decision from that same representation. My research and decision is done by the time I get in the car. If they don't have the time to put in that simple amount of effort, MY time and money isn't spent on them.
