BlackBook Lowdown

Look for the bookstore full of people who probably don't read a lot. Tight on the outside and the inside like a Chinese gymnast. The Jetcera preens with sleek wood paneling backdrop whilst sliding on those gold-stamped floors. Get your learn on, drink on, and your smoke on, slap Matt Levine on the ass, and tell 'em Cayte sent ya. Silent partner is a baller, literally, so expect tall dudes in canary yellow bench warmer zoot suits, Patrick Ewing style. Prince Peter mans the decks while you and your five new best friends lounge in the toilet and talk about, you know, how amazing and great things are!

Don't even bother

Posted by bsk150 on Monday, December 15, 2008

With its unassuming bookstore façade, I predicted speakeasy-cool with pretty drinks and prettier people. Not so much. The Eldridge is the size of my shoebox-esque apartment, jammed to the horribly low ceilings with sweaty wannabes and their rich friends. Expecting a blend of indie rock, electronic and chill beats from the DJ, the brazen dirty-south rap blasting from the speakers invaded my ear canal like US troops in search of WMDs. All that aside, my lady friend and I wouldn’t have even breached the door if we weren’t with a pro-athlete. This place suffers from serious multiple personality disorder.
