The Scene – A musical pilgrimage for aspiring singer-songwriters, Eddie's may resemble a crowded attic, but its coziness, combined with an excellent sound system, serves the acoustic-only performers well. While earnest artists sing their hearts out on stage, patrons sip cocktails, respectfully adhering to the "quiet listening" policy (no cell phones, smoking or loud chatter). An outside patio bar is the designated area for making noise and shooting pool. – – The Draw – Having launched talent such as the Indigo Girls, John Mayer and Shawn Mullin, this music room is ripe…
perfect for what it is

i love that the priority at eddie's is the music. they do everything in their power to make it the best environment for listening to the world's best acoustic music. people who don't want to be cramped or told to not talk loud or told to turn off their cell phones, etc should not go - if you are looking for an upscale bar experience, don't go. if you want to go somewhere to meet people or catch up with friends and have some good music in the background, don't go. if you are looking for a funky hole in the wall, with plenty of character, to actually listen to good music without a bunch of distractions, you should check it out. the servers and owners are going to defend the environment first and serve the customer second, so don't expect anything different. if that bothers you - perfect, don't go, those of us that enjoy this place don't want you there.
- Pros: it's all about the music baby
- Cons: sometimes draws customers who don't understand the pros
Great acoustic venue
by sereene1 at Citysearch
Eddie's Attic is my favorite venue in the metro area, mainly because it's so intimate. If you enjoy live acoustic music then this is the place to go. I have discovered a lot of good artists at Eddie's. It's really small so get there early if you don't have a table reserved and so you can snag a seat in the "bleachers". There is not a bad seat in the house and if you get a table you can literally be three inches away from the performer. However, if you are the type of person who needs lots of personal space or loves to talk incessantly during sets Eddie's Attic may not be the place for you as talking is heavily discouraged and it can get cramped during sold-out shows.
- Pros: Up close and personal
- Cons: Up close and personal
Impressing menu, incredible music
by LolBenny at Citysearch
We've been going to Eddie's Attic for several years now and have never had a bad experience. The food is always fresh and flavorful - it's pretty typical bar food, but well prepared, obviously by someone who knows what they're doing. And the music is always spot on. It's a great room to see a singer/songwriter in a more personal setting.
- Pros: delicious sweet fries, perfectly cooked burgers, strong drinks
- Cons: Room can be crowded, but it's worth it.
