If you're looking for a unique and welcoming bar in New Albany, The Earl is definitely worth a…read morevisit. It has a great atmosphere to enjoy a quick drink or settle in and enjoy the evening. The drinks are well made, the bartenders are friendly and attentive, and the overall vibe makes it easy to stay longer than you planned. It's a great spot whether you're going out for a casual night or meeting friends for something a little different from the usual bar scene. What really stands out is the personality of the place. It feels cozy, well put together, and genuinely enjoyable. We've had consistently good experiences and would absolutely recommend giving The Earl a try if you're in New Albany.

I've been to The Earl a couple of times and I still don't quite know what to make of it. Each time…read morehas been because The Earl is open after all the other bars close. If this place were called "Steve's" or something and had more mundane lighting, I'd wrap my head around it more easily. The bar itself runs down the center of the single room with some four-ups against the wall. Each time, drinks are poured into plastic cups. Prices seem reasonable but portions are smaller than you'll get elsewhere. There's a few on draft, some alright cocktails and a limited food menu. I opted for the pretzel bread and pimento spread and was pleasantly surprised with how much I enjoyed the freshness, texture, and taste! Music selections fluctuate both genres and volumes. Clientele is pretty relaxed. Its a go-to spot after 10 p.m.

However casual dress was welcome. My wife and I both got free deserts. Lava Cake and cheesecake. Both were delicious. My wife had a filet mignon which very tender. She got the Brussels sprouts and she reported they were good, but could have been sautéed a little longer. I had the NY strip, medium rare. I was very good, with nice seasoning. I had au gratin potatoes, they were so creamy and delicious! All the stars for this place. Please check it out! We'll be back, it's in our back yard!

The new owners did not fix one of the major drawbacks of the space, however, and it is just as loud as Toast was. Sound baffling would help, but it wouldn't have made my experience all that much better. We were seated at a table in the back. Despite our fairly early reservation, we were next to an 8-person table that, when filled, got noisy. The velvet cushioned seats were nice. Booths looked good as well. Lighting is low and intimate. Drinks were meh. I wasn't impressed. I tried two and both were single note without much sophistication. The menu looked interesting, but I wasn't impressed with the execution. My scallops had good flavor but were overcooked and very soft. The braised short rib was good but it sat on a bed of spaghetti that was cut up; like you would for a child. The service was hit and miss. At times, our server seemed to be actively ignoring us to the point where one of our quartet jokingly asked if one of us had dated them and it had ended badly. The Fair is expanding, which is great, and I wish them the best, but a rating of "fair" is about all I could give my visit.

Once you go in, you get asked what your ailment is and he prescribes you your "medication" which in my case was the "All Dolled Up" vodka cocktail! We were then taken to the bar area and could choose to either order what the doctor prescribed or a different drink from the menu. Service was great, the drinks were good but my favorite part was definitely the lounge area on the second floor as it was literally like going back in time! The decor is just awesome! Needless to say, I will be going back!

We were so close to walking out after seeing others seated much after us receiving meals. Again, I still had no drink and still waiting for any type of service. It was like my table was in a void. Just a really disappointing visit and I brought a friend that made the drive from Louisville, he wasn't impressed by my usually dependable business. On a side note, I've gone back and looked at all the Yelp reviews, and The Exchange doesn't respond when friends say you can or used to do better. Something to pay attention to.

I even walked away a winner...this place is super clean and friendly staff. I really enjoyed myself and the food was just the icing on the cake! Everything was served steaming hot & fresh, like the Mac and cheese almost burnt my tongue lol That mango lemon drop was tasty! $12? Not bad at all...this is a place I will support not only because it's black owned but simply because the service and food exceeded my expectations. I'm very happy I supported this business and they have a returning customer now :) see you guys soon

We went for Sunday Brunch. The simple Platform with kielbasa had a generous potion of scrambled…read moreeggs and sausage then a moist biscuit. The lightly battered fish over cheesy grits was lip snacking good. On Sundays they have Gospel Karaoke so you can get your groove on. All the staff were friendly and made you feel right at home.

She was very friendly and was not hesitant to make jokes to keep the good vibes! The restaurant opens the side doors to let fresh air in on a sunny day which is amazing if you don't want to sweat in the sun but still want to feel a nice breeze. The sliders were amazing, the chicken was not dry which is common in bar food places. The concept of every bread being rolls gives the hot dog an extra security when picking it up. Really excited to go back when the days are warmer and can enjoy the patio section!

We got a To-Go order of their New Albany burger week burger. This was the New Albany Farmhouse…read moreburger. It has several toppings and a lot of flavor. The sunny side egg on the burger was really juicy and the Hawaiian Rolls made for an excellent bun. Even with all of the toppings (lettuce, red onion, white cheddar cheese, bacon, fried green tomatoes, a sunny side up egg and miso ranch) the flavor of the burger still shined through and was delicious! We also got the Hot Fries. The burger was delicious but the hot fries were my favorite part!! They were hot, crispy, and had so much flavor! I love hot things and loved the heat - I can see where they could be considered pretty hot to some an the heat does build if you eat several in a row but again I love this flavor profile. We also got the slaw to help balance the heat of the fries if needed. We got the order to go for lunch. We were impressed by the to go packaging. The bag is really sturdy and really fun! It may sound silly but their take out packing is by far my favorite I have ever seen! We plan on coming back to try some of their other food in the future and look forward to dining in and trying one of their several beers. The atmosphere looks really fun and inviting and everyone was very friendly.

But moms want to have fun too and I was hoping they would allow us to sit in a corner and mind our business. The staff was super accommodating, they scoped it and were able to seat us since it was early and not too crowded. I really appreciated them helping us out and giving us a spot to catch up. The vibes are awesome, you feel like you're in your rich friends basement sneaking drinks while their parents are in Turks and Caicos. Cozy couches, nice spots at the bar, and a dark but inviting vibe. The bartender was awesome, giving us some great recommendations. We loved the bourbon espresso martini and the dirty martini like cocktail. We got some olives and some chips to snack on and drinks were served beautifully. Service was quick and prices were fair. At the end we shopped the little store upstairs - we thanked the staff again for letting us bring my friends baby girl in and giving us some great drinks.

Staff stopped and cleaned off your table as they passed, even though they weren't our staff. It's a bit loud, but still laid back enough to have a decent conversation. They serve their beer cheese warm, which is a nice change as most places have cold beer cheese to spread on a pretzel. Wings were crisp and come with three types of sauces to choose. I secretly love to try coleslaw whenever I see it on the menu and it was with it. Not too sweet and a good vinegar bite on the back end. The Hubs had a grilled chicken salad that was nice. Could have used more vegetables on it but it was a good sized dinner salad. Great beer and cocktail selection as well.
