"Promoter" was very rude to patrons so much so that I had to leave the establishment. Such a bad look for eos.

Ehhh. Mehhh. Hmm. Stopped by Eos on a Friday night with a couple girl friends while visiting SB for the weekend. There is a $5 cover which isn't too bad, but overall I'd say it's not worth it. The place was kind of empty for a Friday night, and the crowd was... interesting. We didn't stay very long but the music was all intense electronic stuff, which is difficult to dance to in my opinion. The outdoor patio area is nice though. I liked it better out there than inside. Overall I think I'd enjoy this place more if it was packed with a fun (normal) crowd and if the music was better. Hip-hop please! Or at least a mix. read more

The music was awesome and the vibes are good all around. The staff was cool. The security guard named Sergio was awesome. He was welcoming and greeted as we arrived. It was awesome that he remembered us! Ana and Jess were very attentive as well. I appreciate the great service! Will definitely be returning! Count on it! read more

Long line but they let us in because it was my birthday. At first they wouldn't make us a lemon drop but they ended up give us the lemon drop and 10 shots on the house. Wow, the bartender is awesome. First time here and want to come back all the time for free drinks. Will be coming back. read more

No sure why I tried to go here. The cover charge (given to me and my friend anyway) was $50?? I did not pay. I'm not young and hot so I'm sure that's why. Anyway, after reading other reviews I'm not sure I would've enjoyed it anyway. Oh well! read more

They took my ID when it was my real ID and it was the only one I had, now I have to pay $60 just to get a new one. It was the asian bouncer with a man bun that looked like Yoko Ono. read more

Came here on a Saturday night at maybe 10:30 PM $5 COVER CHARGE?! Tonic (down the street) didn't have a cover that same night... --OUTDOOR LOUNGE-- There's a bar that faces indoors and outdoor area. I love the outdoor area. It's not as loud, has a fireplace, and has a better lounging atmosphere. --INDOOR CLUB-- a relatively small indoor space. Not much dance floor room. Awkward narrow layout, in my opinion. --DJ-- SUCKED and too LOUD. We all know clubs are supposed to be loud, but holy moley this was on a level of its own. Music was hip hop and 90s (which are great!), but the DJ just killed it (in the bad way). --PROS-- +accepts card at the door with no minimum fee +decent bouncers: they told me ear plugs were sold on the side...but why not free ): +not a dingy looking lounge +2 bathrooms: indoor and outdoor --OVERALL-- I enjoyed the outdoor area, but I wouldn't want to go back again unless they decide to adjust their volume and improve their music. It has A LOT of potential, but it's gotta work on a couple things. Maybe I came on an off night?? read more

bouncer named "ye" was so incredibly rude to me and my friend when we were looking for my friends lost debit card, all we did was ask if we could retrace our steps and he started kicking us out for asking and embarrassed us in front of the line and never gave us the chance to even look for it. used to love coming here but this guy is so awful i don't see myself coming back! read more

I went to watch Omnom here last night, when I had arrived I walked up to the shorter line thinking it was for ticket holders and security was asking for bribes to get in otherwise I had to wait in the line wrapped around the building regardless if I had a ticket or not. I waited in line and as I got to the front the crowd was being crushed between the venue's fence and a barrier to get in, security shut the fence, people tried barging through and security pushed back til they toppled over the barrier we were being crushed against and at that point I left. It was way too dangerous to get through a crowd crush with my girl to get in and it was not my fault the line was out of control because security decided to let people bribe their way into an already sold out show. I demanded a refund and have yet to get a response. here's what the crowd looked like to get in after the barrier was knocked over and the line completely fell apart. read more

EOS is AWESOME, I mean come on, it's gotta be the classiest club in SB. The little room with the EDM music is really awesome too cause they don't play it anywhere else. I love that they have DJs that come do performances and the outside area has a really nice chill vibe(not too loud to hear conversation) The bouncers Kyle and Sergio are so personable and respectful! Yes, go to EOS, dance your butt off, have some drinks and be safe! read more

There are many mixed reviews on this place. This is my experience. I've only been here three times. I've seen Gorgon City, Hannah Wants, Sian and Chaos in the CBD. I had a great time here. It's worth going if there are popular DJ artists performing that night. If you love electronic dance music, this is the place for you. It's chill and laid back. Great place to socialize with people. The staff and bouncers are cool and friendly. I usually eat and buy alcoholic drinks somewhere else before going in. Don't waste your time purchasing drinks. Enjoy the music, socialize and dance. read more

This is the best club in town! The greatest lineup and DJs, the best space/ the place has an indoor and outdoor area with VIP lounges. Besides that everybody that works there are incredible and super professional. I always gave a good time there!!!! read more

If you want to have a good time, you should definitely go here before 10:30 it gets packed. Best bar in SB!

**BEST LOUNGE AND NIGHTCLUB IN SANTA BARBARA** PARKING ======= Street or valet. AMBIANCE ========= Poppin' around 11PM. Lots of college kids. Popped collars STILL exist (dammit). But they play hip hop, so I'm Joe Cools. THINGS TO NOTE =============== **There is a nice back patio with a fireplace. Be warned, there are smokers outside, too. **Lots of private booths but not a lot of places to sit if you don't have your own. **Depending on what type of music you like, there are two dance floors: the Main Lounge and the Goddess Lounge. **Call the manager for details re: transportation, private booths, etc. Our bachelorette party had a good time nevertheless. Good DJ in the Goddess Lounge. RECOMMEND those who want some "Vegas" cocktail lounge and clubbing experience in Santa Barbara. read more

Horribly rude bouncer at the door, $20 cover and there was nothing going on inside. I asked him if I could take a peek inside to see if we would like to stay, he was rude and told me no, when the door opened I saw not one person inside and it looked dead, also not a fan of the music. His attitude was a total turn off and my husband and I went to State St to enjoy our night out. Not worth returning! read more

Worst bartender ever, I was just minding my own business at the bar and the bar tender called the security to kick me out cause I was just there having a good time and taking pictures of the surroundings. So I got kick out for that? And the securities are just like soldiers they just follow orders. Not to mention the that the bartender drop a bottle a few drinks, she sucks, messy drinks! this bar need BAR RESCUE, bad! I don't Recomend, people that work here have a low education read more

EOS is pretty fun on a Thursday, Friday or Saturday night. Here are my pros and cons: Pros: + Great dancing music including Top 40's, electro, pop, and DJ remixes + Spacious dance floor + Lots of bathroom stalls + 2 different rooms/lounges with different music and their own bar areas + Outdoor patio is nice Cons: - There's usually cover charge of $5 for all guys and girls - Kinda far from State street The $5 is definitely getting your bang for your buck; however, if you bring a jacket, keep your eye out because my friend got her jacket stolen here once :( read more

Biased because I got to know most of the people who worked there but.... Best nightclub for EDM music in all of Santa Barbara. Reasonable cover; multiple DJs, plenty of dance space, drinks aren't too too expensive, and doesn't have a ratchet vibe with jerk bouncers like wildcat. They don't throw parties outside anymore which is a bummer. Usually can get in for free if you know how to ask correctly. Security is reasonably lax but be smart about what you're doing and where you're doing it. Center area is outdoors so you can smoke there and there are multiple bars to get drinks from. VIP section generally isn't worth it. Out of 100 nights out I probably spent 98 of them at EOS read more

I have to give this place 5 stars and here's why. My company was hosting a party and needed to find a lounge. I called up EOS lounge, and Adam, the GM, was great. He worked with me in getting prices, decorations, DJ, transportation, food, you name it he's got it covered. I would highly recommend using this place for a corporate event. Great deal that he threw for us too so that's always a plus. Our company had many many compliments on the location and how fun the party was afterward. I can't say much about what goes on during the regular week, but when you close this place down for a private event, watch out! That's when it gets wild. Good times. read more

My favorite nightclub in Santa Barbara, very classy, clean, and friendly staff. One thing I like a lot is that they are always improving and try to keep a fresh look which most nightclubs in Santa Barbara do not do. I love hanging out with my friends at the patio area which is very nice and, the best of all, the DJs and the bartenders know their mixes! read more

Can't put a PRICE on CLA$$.. EOS is the only place for me. 3 Bars, 2 DJ's & and a posh outside lounge area. I Give the staff "Two Thumbs up!" ( way up..lol) Thursdays are "Godzilla" lol. read more

Eos Lounge is right up my alley. As soon as you walk in, you know it's going down! The inside has a long bar and a dance floor with DJ lights and music blaring, then the outside is another huge dance floor with another bar and lots of tables and seating around the sides. Basically this place is a giant dance floor with drinks, what else do you need? We came here on a Saturday night and there was a $5 cover, but that's not bad because the drinks weren't terribly expensive and the crowd was a lot more fun than other clubs in the area like Wildcat, which also has a $5 cover anyway. Eos is also close to a lot of other bars in the State Street area so if you want to hop around, it's totally doable--just make sure you end the night here because once you spend all this time dancing, your sore feet won't want to walk around after! read more

Nice lounge, good ambiance... 2 dance rooms.. 1 for the top 20's or hip hop and the other is for trance... Drinks are average.. $10 a drink or shot.. I like their outside patio, heat lamps around the outside and booths for people to sit and talk and there's also a fireplace too... If you're looking for dressy spot, this is the place, everyone's all dressed up.. we saw a couple people get dropped off by limos... read more

When Tonic closed, I was worried I wouldn't get to hear Quizo play his unique tracklist anymore, but luckily they picked him up at eos! I love the vibes he brings. Eos is still one of my favorite clubs in santa barbara. read more

If you can make it past the long line of people waiting in line this is arguably the best nightclub/lounge in Santa Barbara. The dance floors are spacious with separate areas for dance, trance and/or hip hop fans. I tend to stay near the outdoor patio since the fireplace area isn't typically as crowded and I can get my drink faster with the outdoor bartender or as he called it "patio specialist" who seemed to always acknowledge my nod no matter how busy it was and had my drink whipped up before I could pull my money out of my wallet. It's difficult to find a bartender in SB that can make a great cocktail that doesn't taste like all liquid sugar so I'm glad to have found a good one here. Love the ambiance they built here. It feels more classy than the other bars/clubs in SB because while there are spaces inside for the hardcore club people there are also plenty of tables and spaces to just lounge and have a drink with good friends. Will definitely be coming back here my next trip back. If you want to get a good drink look for the tall asian guy behind the bar in the outside patio. *I invoke my rights as an asian guy to say that last statement. read more

EOS lounge could benefit from hiring a few more promoters and dragging the right kind of clientele off of State Street and ushering them across the lot (maybe hire those guys who work at the airport directing planes on the ground). Regardless, the music is great, the dance floor is not overly crowded, there are many well dressed people, and the outdoor area has nice airflow. If you are getting a table, I highly recommend (in this order) the upper table inside, then the table by the back dj, then maybe the Zeus table. The upper table has great air flow and looks down on everything like a hawk on a cliff overlooking a field of blind mice. read more

My fiancé and I went to Eos Lounge for NYE party. The entry fee was 21$/per person and included free champagne which was an awesome price. The venue was nice and had two dance floor indoors as well as an outside patio with a cozy fireplace. The DJ that was playing that night was good and music was a variety of hip hop and a little bit of dance/EDM. Overall, had a great time! read more

I had the absolute pleasure to venture to EOS while in town for my best friend's Bachelorette party. I was not sure of the nightlife in SB, but heard this place was good times. My best friends fiancé called in, and got us girls a table, and immediately we were greater by Whitney, whom is hands down the nicest guy, and made sure the bride to be was taken care of. Any question I had or the girls had, he was more than willing to accommodate, and make sure our expectations were exceeded. All of us traveled in to SB, so we were looking for a fun night. Our table was inside, but the weather was so nice, and the DJs on the patio were bangers, so we asked, and Whitney moved us to the patio table. Seriously, a doll. Bix made sure we had a great time, and definitely made sure we were all taken care of as well. A few of my best friends, including the bachelorette have a sick obsession with Kaskade, and I asked Bix if the DJs had "I remember." Needless to say, all of a sudden we hear that song, and it was game over. All of us were so excited, had such a phenomenal time, the patio crowd was fun, the bouncers made sure everyone was safe, and our table was amaze. We ventured in the back, and got a chance to meet the back bartender, Nelson. Seriously, the best dude, so funny, and poured us some shots. If you want a good laugh, and a genuine bartender who is just down for you to have a good time, go see him! Towards the end of the night, it was winding down, and Whitney made sure we were all good and that we had a good time. It was so fun! Got a chance to meet a guy named Will, who works at another club; Tonic ;). Next time I'm in town, EOS for sure, Tonic, and wherever else all these guys names are attached too. Go to EOS, you will not be disappointed!! read more

EOS EOS EOS...what can I say about EOS. What exactly do I love about this place besides the constantly amazing lineup? NELSON!!! This sexy ass bartender makes my night every single night I'm there. He may not play for my team, but we sure do like to pretend he does ;) You can find this beautiful man at the outside bar on most nights owning whatever crowd comes his way. Do yourself a favor and pay him a visit and get yourself some delicious tequila shots. Play your cards right and you may just get a little more...but don't get too excited, he saves that special treatment for me! Don't forget to tip this stud and he will make sure to treat you right and make your night at EOS the "best you've ever had"! read more

EOS Lounge - Lounges Near Me - Santa Barbara, California

Horrible experience, the bouncer was very aggressive and unprofessional towards my friends and I. Been here a few times in the past and would say this is the one of the worst clubs in the Santa Barbara area. Disappointed and will not return after this last experience. read more

This is a great lounge! I love going here to get away from the normal crowd. However as time goes on this place gets more popular. The outside does not look very inviting and looks like it would be a hole in the wall. But once you get inside the place is pretty amazing. You walk in and they have a long bar in the front and plenty of seating. They have two bars, one inside and one outside. They have a good dj playing mostly house music. They have a nice opened up dance floor as well. The second room is outside and there are reservation tables out there and nice decor of plants etc. I think this is a great place, one of those do not judge a book by its cover. They have great drinks, but are more on the pricier side than the bars like sharkeez. It is a lounge after all not the bar type. All the people working here are very nice, bartenders and the guys at the front door. :D This place has a more laid back in a upscale vibe, without the snobby Hollywood-like attitude. People who also go here are older, depending on the night you will not see a massive college crowd b/c it is off the main street where most bars are at. Like someone mentioned before there is a young professional vibe all looking to just relax and have a good time. read more

How is this club rated 4 stars? Unless you haven't went clubbing outside of SB, this place is a bit odd in my opinion. Music was not our style, dance floor is pretty small, and not very many people at this club on a Saturday night around 11 pm. Music was like rave music or something. It was the type of music I imagine bunnies dance to. Top 40 music was virtually nonexistent at this club. People were dressed pretty casual here. Some were dressed in pajama jumpsuits. Our group didn't really get the vibe. Definitely a lot of nerdier undergrads here. Lots of youngsters hopping up and down. Positives: Parking is easy. There is a lot across the street. we paid no cover on a Saturday Long Island drinks seemed like they had a decent amount of alcohol. read more

Hate this place bouncer was extremely rude and accused us of having fake IDs when they were real. And didn't give us our money back after paying the interest fee and denying us. If I could give zero stars I would read more

EOS is def my fav place to go for a great time. It's the only place in SB that has artists that I want to see on the regular. The vibes are always great! If you're in need of a drink, go out back and see Nelson!! He's insanely fast and hilaaaarious. His drinks are always on point. As long as I'm living in SB, I'll be dancing it up at EOS. read more

We had a great time and were treated to excellent service by the staff. I will be going back. read more

My Go-To club in SB. Always has the friendliest staff and BY FAR the best music in town. If you are in to house, techno, and good times this is the place to be. make sure you visit the bartender on the patio, Nelson, for a good time. he is never short on jokes and always makes the experience at EOS that much better. Furthermore, the new remodel that they have done to the stage is MASSIVE. Funktion-One sound and projection mapping turn the dance floor in to one that you would see at major clubs like in LA or SF. Top that off with an Insomniac collaboration and you have the best DJ's playing on the best sound that SB has to offer. read more

Fun times !!! I hear Nelson Tran (bartender on the back patio) makes the best Blackberry Mojitos, Irish coffees and Long Island Ice teas...You should order one from him. (JK - never order these from him, you may just get a few shots of tequila instead... ; - ) ) lol On a more serious note! EOS is a great spot to kick it on a Thurs, Fri, Sat. Music is on point and the back patio is great for mingling. Love the fireplace. Bring your friends AND Definitely check it out if you've never been! Five Stars for SURE! read more

Worst table service in town!!!! There were ghetto tables with ripped chairs. Paid $488 for shitty service. The chasers tasted like old coke that had been sitting out for weeks and the "lemonade" tasted like somebody dropped their Mexican candy inside....AND no security guards were there to watch over our table. No reimbursement or compensation were offered when some drunkard stole our bottle. No wonder bottle service here is so dirty cheap compared to LA or OC. I would only recommend coming here after midnight. This place looks like it used to be a rundown saloon. read more

I love the vibe here! I have lived in SB for many years now and EOS is always my go to for a fun Saturday night. Additionally, they've recently partnered with Insomniac and are bringing in some dope DJs! Like Mija and Ghastly. For drinks, I'd go to the outside bar. If you're lucky you get served by Nelson. Buff Asian guy. Super friendly, quick and a great bartender all around. Love seeing him there :) read more
