If you’re looking for a place in Augusta where you can truly unwind, Easy Street Lounge is it. From the moment you walk in, there’s zero pretense — just good energy, good music, and genuinely good people. Britt behind the bar is an absolute gem. She’s attentive, welcoming, and somehow makes the whole place feel like you’ve been coming there for years — even if it’s only your first or second visit. There’s a small pool table that keeps things lively, great music playing without overwhelming the conversation, and a back deck that I can only imagine is electric in the summer. Honestly, if it’s this good in the winter, I can’t wait to see what it’s like when the warm weather hits. What really stands out, though, is the crowd. It’s one of the most inclusive, relaxed atmospheres I’ve experienced. No one cares about your age, your background, or your preferences. Everyone’s just there to relax, laugh, and enjoy themselves. That kind of vibe is rare — and Easy Street nails it. I’ve only been twice so far, but both times I left thinking the same thing: this place is special. Highly recommend if you want real people, real conversation, and a genuinely good night out in Augusta.

I love this place. It's the only place I feel comfortable at as a person of color hope I can meet some friends here. I live in China Maine, so it's a little hard. Looking for a nice trans friend. If I can I love the bartenders? I love the atmosphere. I'd love to hear Everybody do karaoke. I just wish there were more djs, so people could dance bartenders. Make the best drinks I've ever had. Seriously? I will continue to support this place always
