High expectations, Huge disappointment

We went three days in a row (10/10, 10/11, & 10/13)...and it was virtually empty. They have such a huge property with potential but it wasn’t drawing in the crowds. I guess to supplement, they had a rave night in the ground level. But to pay a $10 cover charge for an empty establishment???? Never again. We gave it three chances, including for a midday Sunday cookout and it flopped. The bartenders were nice, but drinks were meh. So we then stuck to soda so that we could head elsewhere to spend our money on alcohol. Would we go again? Highly doubtful. What ever this place reportedly had years or decades ago, is long extinguished.

Stopped by the Eagle To see whats up with the Sunday, BBQ, it takes place indoors and the food did not look to bad, hot dogs, burgers, potato salad, Cole Slaw, cup cakes, fruit salad, for the most part. The music is entertaining if you like those fast beats, low key cruise level. Different types of drink Specials.

really disapointing

At 1am Saturday night, there were more employees than people. There was supposed to be some dancing -- nothing. There was supposed to be a dark room playground-- NOPE. Paid 10 dollars cover to enter. Was not worth it. my $10 Dollar drink was weak and very over priced. The Bartender treated me nicely but did not have to much to say and I felt lonely. Droping the Cover would be a good start. I wasted 2 hours just being curteous. Oh my god-there was no parking and the place was kinda empty. I'll be back --this place has hope. The place was clean new but not used enough.

The Best!

While the new location is a bit further out, the actual structure is fantastic. The guys have done and awesome job in creating a "Man Place" with multiple areas, great sound system, fun events, and the BEST Bartenders! Worth the venture there.
