StephanieJanuary 19, 2014Had a great time here! Fun & friendly atmosphere. Great place to hang out on the weekend. Bartenders are super nice & make the drinks hella strong. Not to mention they're cheap compared to other bars!

Fun place. Drinks are great. So great in fact that i you're not careful you'll end up on your ass. Good times to be had here.
Sam GrSeptember 18, 2012If you are in the U-district and want to get wasted like a college kid and hang out with college kids, order a Long Island or Rum and Coke. There won't be much Coke.- Seattle Happy HourMarch 25, 2012Earls on the Ave Every Day 2pm-8pm, $4.50 pints of beer and well drinks! http://www.earlsontheave.com/happyhour.html
M FongAugust 20, 2012We have seen university students go down in a ball of flames here. Always entertaining.
Earl's will make you hurl! Strawberry lemonades... Can barely taste all the alcohol but this drink will creep on you!
Off The QuadApril 6, 2011We hear this place has the strongest drinks in town. Care to see if the rumors are true? We’re in.
Really strong drinks. They serve doubles as regular drinks
- Order a seedless watermelon.. they're as good as the strawberry lemonades.
Tuesday crack with DJ Henski and $4.50 purple rains. Get fadddeddddd
Got 10 bucks? you're in luck! Come to earls and get fuuuuuccccckkked up.
Not a place for the weak or amateurs. Those who hate are usually one or the other! ;-)
Either a great place to start your night or the worst place to end it.
