Phil’s Oyster Bar owners lead group that buys Uncle Earl’s

I think this is a really good idea for that location. I loved the patio at Earls. Couldn't stand the inside of the place, especially when they had live music. I couldn't hear myself think. For the life of me I can not understand why the previous owners thought it would be a good idea to build a giant fence enclosing that patio.

There is only one decent place for people age 25-32 to get drinks in BR. Hope this works out.

I disagree. There are several: Olive or Twist, Overpass Merchant, Happys all come to mind instantly.

Wonder what st patties will be like in that spot

Good luck. I think its gonna be a tough one to be successful there.

Among the changes coming to the establishment, located in a strip center next to Juban’s, will be an updated outdoor patio, a larger indoor stage for live bands on weekends, and a VIP section for patrons who want to enjoy themselves in a more private environment or for private events. The bar will also be expanding its drink menu to include more upscale cocktails, wines, daiquiris and margaritas.

I guess thats what I would do. The place has a decent setup. It just needs to be nicer

Same here, I said Earl’s was having money issues months ago and the OT and you would have thought I stomped on a kitten. Glad they are at least trying something else there since Earls is a shithole now

Since having kids I haven’t stepped foot in earles in 3 years. Loved going to earles on my walk home after the overpass from hh till
12. I would make my hike towards home stopping off in earles for two more drinks.

I’m all for a older person, laid back neighborhood bar.

Sounds like the people on next door will
Be happy. They won’t post every weekend about the noise coming from earles.

Money issues though... I don’t buy that. I know I had a friend call out the owner for sexually assualting his gf while checking IDs. Maybe it resolves around that? He went on FB rant about it and wanted to sue him

The weeknight crowd they were getting just migrated to Ivars
