First off, I moved into the neighborhood about a year ago. It was a beautiful summer day and my husband and I were walking around the area to get acquainted with our new home. We got hungry and decided to stop in the bar for a quick bite during our walk. I go inside and it was an awkward atmosphere of quietness, only one couple in their 40s dining, and two unfriendly looking guys behind the bar. Everyone looked miserable. I asked one of the guys for a menu and he hastily responds for me to pick one up myself by the door. That was it, I never stepped foot in there again for over a year. I hate bad service like nails on a chalk board!
For the past few months I did however notice a change in the atmosphere at the bar as I pass it each day jogging around the block with my dog. The place seemed to always be packed and people seemed to be having fun.
My brother wanted to grab a drink yesterday and suggested we go to Eastfield. I reluctantly agreed. Best decision I've made!!! Turns out they are under new management! The service is excellent. They are friendly, fast, and even accommodated my labrador by bringing him water. (P.S. they have a pet friendly patio)
The food is standard bar food, not spectacular but still solid good food. I loved the fried pretzels with white cheese dip. Who goes to the bar for just food anyways?! This will definitely be one of my regular spots for hanging out and grabbing a drink. I loved that the crowd is also more diverse than it was before.
