Emerald Club 2001

I always have a good time when I come here. They have a nice large patio area. Bartenders are super friendly. Band selection is really good. Everyone is just really nice here, great place to socialize.

I would have given 5 stars, but the bar itself is REALLY small and going to the ladies room when its packed is often a pain. The layout is super inconvenient on a busy night.

Oh Eclub....

You were so good to me that I went twice while I was at the beach.

Its a mixed crowd but very nice and fun. There were no annoying drunks that I can remember and everyone pretty much kept to their own group.

There was live music both nights that we went and also a DJ. Dance floor is small but most people just stand around watching lol. Bathroom is ridiculously small too for the crowd. They also have an outside tiki bar and stage with lots of seating.

Cheap drinks and ~5 cover.

I have been visiting Emerald Isle since I was an infant. Now that I am older my friends and I are not satisfied with simply sitting on the beach all day. We stumbled upon the Emerald Club with hesitation...perhaps for the cheesy "2001" in the title.

HOWEVER, we had a BLAST! You can choose if you want to dance, hang by the bar, chill outside at a bar-top, or mingle. We enjoyed the versatility of the environment and the "pretty-cheap" drinks.

We mostly stuck to beer ($3 bottle domestics) or the "Pirate Punch." Pirate punch is sweet and don't drink too much if you are not up for a nasty hangover.

There were a mix of people there: Marines, bachelorette parties, locals, and young and old vacationers. We enjoyed the diversity of the crowd.

Surprisingly, we really enjoyed the live music. David Dixon was really great (we actually go to school with his brother). We had such a good time on a Friday night that we went back again Saturday.

So if you are looking for a little fun in the sleepy beach town of E.I., hit up the Emerald Club.
