Very generous pours, bartenders are pretty friendly and prompt but its hard to satisfy everyone when the place gets really busy. I got there early so had no drama or waiting for the stamp and they had re-entry until 130. It was great, loved music mostly, ambiance was like any other club Ive been to in LA or Vegas, and only 5 dollar guy cover charge for Eve. I dont count the 5 dollars to get into the Bob because they have a live band and djs so its not fair to say Eve costs 10. Overall, fun place, lots of peeps, good drinks, and probably the friendliest security squad Ive ever seen.

Great new years eve party. General admission was $50. Only includes entry. Eve (nightclub) entry was an additional $10 at the door. If Eve is the place you want to be, GET IN LINE EARLY! Very long lines as Eve is limited entry. NYE tickets promised NYE party favors but those were never received, not a big deal but hey....I expect what is described when purchasing tickets. VIP section/ couches are available for purchase. These can get expensive. Overall, drink prices were reasonable and party was fun.

My friends and I entered this establishment after 1am per their bouncers permission. The manager then banned us for 6 MONTHS stating we entered without a stamp. #confused

Was visiting Grand Rapids from Toronto and was told by a few locals to check this place out. I went here on a Friday and it was a good time. They played lots of EDM. Would return If I am in the area again.

One of the must stop at night clubs to visit. Its definitely an amazing experience. If you are use to the big city type of club or want to experience one this is the club to visit. Must take elevator to gain access, Awesome balcony walk way to the club. Nice VIP like seating spots. Gets very busy and packed but a must if you love to mingle and talk, music, drinks.

Wedding reception at Eve Nightclub? Yes, please! Classy, elegant and FUN! What more do you need? Oh yeah! Great food, too!

Great experience, staff was pretty good about hearing things above the music, and everyone on the dance floor was super respectful about boundaries while also willing to dance. The only complaint is the fact that only VIP were allowed seating. Other than than that, awesome for going and having some fun! Also, shout-out to the elevator guy who was an absolute sweetheart about us needing to get stamps to get in.

Good place to have drinks and music with friends and meet new people. The eve doesnt open until 11pm though and theres usually quite a line to get up and you have to pay again after already paying to get into the B.O.B

A group of us thought we would check it out since we just moved here and were looking to dance. One of my friends was wearing a nice button up, dressy shoes, and khaki shorts. He wasn’t allowed in because his shorts were a little above the knee. I would understand except a large group of girls wearing ripped jean shorts that were extremely revealing slid through with no issues. A guy wearing a baggy t-shirt, jogger sweats, and tennis shoes also made it through with no issues. Interesting...

Once you get to Eve, the service is not the best. I definitely recommend getting a drink on the second floor (way more friendly!). An overcrowded, small space but it was still a great time.

Eve nightclub looks absolutely nothing like the photos on this page that were added by the owner but the times that Ive been have been great and fun! It is a huge crowd of mainly young people filled in a giant nightclub. There are sections you can pay to sit at. All the drinks Ive had have been fantastic here! And they play great music but they generally play mixes and then skip to the next song before the mix is done.

Its no Vegas night club but the bottle service is reasonable. A little on the casual side which is fine for me. It was hotter than hell in there one night.

Review №19

It was meh. The food was good. But it was kept up on during the wedding we went to. The appetizer table would run out and the staff was short, so they couldnt fill it fast enough... being from the food industry and having catered many weddings, it was poor management. There was only one bar tender for the wedding, and she was great... but she could only pour so many drinks so fast and wash glasses. It would have been better if they at least have her a bar back or another bartender.The elevator thing is annoying. Too many people and the system for allowing people up and down for wedding parties is dumb. Wedding parties should have a different colored band so they dont have to wait in that stupid ass long line for the stamp.The DJ was great once the club opened for the public from our private party.

Did you ever want to get the run around and stand in 3 lines that have nothing to do with being inside? Here is your chance.

Review №21

My friend and I were getting drinks on the second level bar. The first time we got drink immediately, but when we were done with our first round the girl bartender picked up our glasses and didnt ask us if we needed anything. After that we waited 20 mins while everyone else was served before us. I had to speak up and ask for a drink and she was rude about it. And clearly didnt like us for some reason even though we didnt do anything. Otherwise the service at the EVE was a great experience. We had a lot of fun up there!

Review №31

I like this place a lot, been going for years.Mainly wanted to do this review to point out that the multiple people referencing that Eve plays techno have no idea what they are talking about. There are hardly ANY venues in Grand Rapids that exclusively play techno, and those that do only do it on occasion.FYI - techno is a distinct form of electronic dance music (EDM) pioneered and created by Derrick May, Kevin Saunderson, and Juan Atkins in the Detroit area in the 1980s that has evolved over time to be one of the dominant genres of modern EDM. That being said, Eve doesnt play techno. Do they play dance music that sometimes falls into the category of EDM? Sure. But its not techno. Know the facts folks, it helps.

Review №33

Eve is a cool place. I have probably got bottle service here over a dozen times. There arent too many clubs in GR so this is the best it gets. The bar can take a while to get drinks at time. Ppl can tend to be pretty hostile even if you brushed shoulders as you walk by. I usually see a fight break out every couple of times each time I go. Bouncers do a good jobs of breaking it up asap.

Overall very sub par experience for a night club. For starters I didn’t even show up yet and the front allowed randoms to use my booth to get up. Also personal preference but it’s annoying they don’t leave the bottles at the booths. They pour drinks then take the bottles away.

Every time we come here we come to go to Eve. We ask if there is another cover to get in and they say I dont know we end up paying $5 a person ever time we just to leave again. Every time I come here I get more and more disappointed with it. Its almost impossible to get into Eve anymore. I would appreciate it if I was told you have to pay AGAIN to get into Eve. And then have to wait in line to hopefully to get a stamp to get up there. Which is very unlikely. I do not recommend this place to anyone. They always scam you to get your money. Pay to get in a bar then pay to get in another bar inside the bar. This place sucks.

Review №47

The dress code is that ripped jeans for guys are not allowed but if you have shorts that leave your ass hangin, its perfect fine. No matter if you are a guy, girl or however you identify yourself, because the more of the intimate parts of your body you have out, the better...so the guests of EVE can objectify you and drool over you because apparently thats what that place is for. When you fix your dress code, you can be turned away because of your attitude. On top of that, at least you should stick to your dress code, because the jeans that I was wearing tonight I did wear at eve before.Rude staff, customer service equal to none, consistency with rules terrible as well and gender bias is on top of its game.

Review №48

The reason why I gave it a 1 was because they really need to do something about the A/C in this place. I started sweating once I walked in. It took me awhile to realize that the girl wearing a sports bra with leggings and suspenders worked there. Once I realized she worked at EVE it made sense to why she was wearing a sports bra. Hell I wish I was wearing a sports bra too. If I wanted to go to a sauna I would have went to one. I am just gald I wasnt wasted like some people cuz that would have just made things ten times worse.

Always a great time! I leave completely exhausted each time because I danced the entire night away. Love the vibe, the bartenders work their ass off to keep up with high demand. Never disappoints.

My waitress/ bartender was absolutely HORRIBLE. The people next to me didn’t pay there tab and as I went to go pay for it she attacked me and threw the drink my fiancé and I ordered. We tried to do her a favor and she was completely disrespectful. I’ve never experienced such horrible and disrespectful service in my entire life. I will never go back to such a place. Clearly the people working here don’t know how to handle themselves. I would much rather hang out at the tavern or a house party before stepping foot in a place like this.

Review №57

Worst experience!!! Don’t recommend at all, me and my friends will not be going back! I wish there was a 0 star because that’s what I would rate this place. My friend ordered some shots for us and as She was paying the bartender told her to make sure She left tip (very rudely) I thought it was crazy she was telling, not even asking but telling us to make sure we left tip. Since she was so rude about it my friend walked away after paying and the bartender threw ice at her, we were all so surprised and in disbelief that a bartender had just thrown ice at my friend. I told her she was being rude and she started yelling at me and she went and got security to kick us out and made it seem as if we were the ones starting problems. So unprofessional and rude don’t waste your time going here.

Review №66

Saturday night.Free for women, $5 cover for guysMostly early -mid 20s crowd.PROS-Semi-large space-Cool interior-Friendly crowd for the most partCONS-Typical awful techno music. People that were dancing looked like zombies. They were not even into it. How about some Hip Hop music. The crowd really woke up when a Cardi B song was played. We have no Hip Hop in Grand Rapids.-BROKEN GLASS ALL OVER THE DANCEFLOOR. I told the bouncer and he said there will be more broken glass as the night goes on. Well make our cleaning rounds later. While I was there, they did not clean up. And one woman fell near me cuz of the broken glass and spilled liquids.-ventilation was not great. It got hot and muggy fairly quickly.This nightclub is just plain boring and disgusting compared to... most nightclubs.

Review №68

Im sick of the rude employees who Greg Gilmore allows to work at his big old building and their awful policies. Ive been coming here for years and keep swearing it off, but somehow I hope it will be less terrible and go back. It is always worse! Besides letting someone in who had just puked outside, the BOB wouldnt let us up to Eve even though we were on the guest list because they said my husband had on jogging pants. Jogging pants? Really? This isnt East Grand Rapids. My husband had on candy cane suit pants. You can even see the pleating in the photo! (He also had a black santa sweater on, what a coincidence!) I didnt even have pants on. I had on basically a bathing suit and a tutu, and somehow I fit their dress code? This isnt a Vegas nightclub, people. Its the only crappy nightclub left open in Grand Rapids! Youre not fooling anyone with your exclusivity. Everyone knows they closed the Crush nightclub downstairs to get rid of black patrons, but theyve also been disparaging me who has been a customer for a decade!
