This establishment could be in any major city across the United States. But I’m glad it’s here in Racine. Our server Javon is very personable and an excellent mixologist. The menu is very small, but perfect for this environment. And the selections are excellent. The signature cocktails complement the menu perfectly. There is plenty of room on the inside. And when the weather gets better, plenty of room on the outside.

I want to love Eave, the rooftop bar at Hotel Verdant, especially last night with their stunning Christmas decorations. We love the view, the atmosphere, the drinks and the appetizers (tho we wish there were more of those).
Since we live 2 blocks away we often come with friends and neighbors. Eave’s chronic problem though is that it is understaffed. There is a large bar and a lot of seating and last night there was only one poor bartender who looked very stressed! We don’t blame him, he was doing the best he could, but the faces of exasperation surrounding him had to be frustrating.
This is a management problem, they have to learn to manage their staffing better.
We’ve been there in every season and it’s always the same, we never see more than 2 bartenders max and no servers taking care of the other seating requiring everyone to come up to the bar and wait. In the summer they open up an outside area exacerbating the situation. Please do better Eave managers, one of you should have been up there to help.

Went on a weekday evening in the cold of winter. Wonderfully quiet. Tori the bartender was super friendly and professional. It is a bit chilly up there- mind you we went in 11 degree temps. But the ambiance and Tori service made up for the chill. Hubby and I split a meal. He had wine I tried rosemary infused soda- yum. We will definitely go again. Beautiful bar!!!

Tori was our bartender during my Stay at hotel Vermont while I was visiting on a business trip. She exemplified customer service excellence In my experience with her as a hotel guest as well as a member of a large group party — And the quality of cocktails exceeded my expectations. (We love a gal who can make a perfect dirty Gin martini)

Tori is an absolutely outstanding bartender and mixologist. You can tell right away that she truly knows her craft—from perfectly balanced cocktails to thoughtful recommendations tailored to your taste. Every drink was made with precision, creativity, and high-quality ingredients. Beyond the drinks, her professionalism, friendliness, and ability to create a great atmosphere really elevated the entire experience. She was attentive without being overbearing and clearly passionate about what she does. Easily one of the best bartenders I’ve ever had—highly recommend Tori to anyone looking for exceptional cocktails and service.

Eave has elevated drinks, spacious indoor and outdoor seating, and occasional live music. The fire tables and patio furniture outside are so nice… this is an upscale addition to Racine’s downtown area and it’s walking distance to many restaurants.

All I can say is WOW. Absolutely beyond beautiful rooftop bar in Racine?! Who would have guessed. First time up here and I will be returning, my drinks were perfectly crafted as well as my charcuterie board. My bartender was running everything and still had time to engage with all the guests. Best service I’ve received in years!! Thank you Tori!! I’ll come back just for your pear martini!

We love Eave! It’s a super cozy and beautiful atmosphere, but what makes it extra special is Tori! She is not only extremely friendly and efficient, but quite talented at crafting cocktails. We are locals and it feels like a mini vacation to go visit Eave and Tori.

We love going to this place and I really would love to give it 5 stars but consistently they are understaffed at the bar. For how busy it is on the weekends and specifically right now with the christmas pop up going on…the staff needs to be doubled. Drinks are good but a bit pricey for Racine. However, we do enjoy going and will continue because it is such a great space, location, view and is decorated so cute right now for the holidays.
