East Village Social

The worst! They were sold out of 4 out of 7 beers. They said the taps were broken the night before so everyone was drinking bottles/cans and they ran out of most things. (Not sure why they didn't stock up before a summer Thursday night.) The air conditioning was not working and it was a heat wave. The ceiling fan above us was on low so we asked them to turn it up. Instead they turned it off and couldn't figure out how to turn it back on. They offered to move our table of 5 to the bar where it was cooler. (It was not.) 20 minutes after ordering dinner, they told me they were out of the item I had ordered. An hour after we ordered, we still had no food. They had the nerve to tell us that they needed a card to hold our table because the shift was changing. (Yet we had the same server all night.) My friends got extremely bland chicken sandwiches and didn't get the jalapeño aioli sauce it was supposed to come with. 10 minutes after asking for it, they gave us mayo. They said they didn't have the sauce because the menu was changing. They never refilled our water, in a heat wave. Needless to say, I will not be returning.

Lovely place and lovely people

Absolutely love this place. The atmosphere was so nice, drinks were good, music was great.

A great bar in the Village; it's a relaxed to grab couple drinks. Since they've opened, they've gone through few changes (some good and some less desirable) but still a solid hangout spot. Check out their sandwiches; BBQ Pulled pork is excellent at a reasonable price.

I dig this place! It's has such an old bar feel and comfort. The bartender, Dee Dee, is beautiful and knows how to handle a busy bar. She's quite appreciated according to the compliments posted in the bathroom. ;) Overall, EVS is awesome, chill and serves there drinks out of mason jars. Plus, their food is priced right and has a Southern twist. We had the fries with a yummy verde sauce and we give it thumbs up for sure. Best part of this place, are the window seats to look out onto the debauchery of St. Mark's.
