EAST SIDE STORY

A Store of His Own

In 1973 Eli went into business on his own opening E.A.T. on Madison Avenue. His original grab-and-go neighborhood café still serves as a showcase for his original ideas, attention to detail, and careful thinking about how to refine a recipe. The ideas generated over 40 years at E.A.T. have become hallmarks of all of Eli’s shops and restaurants.

MADISON AVENUE

A Neighborhood Institution

After nearly 45 years, E.A.T. remains a quintessential New York eatery. Beloved for its overstuffed sandwiches on Eli’s bread; the iconic “Tower of Bagel”; small batch salads, carefully-made several times a day; freshly roasted coffee, and flaky breakfast pastries. Expect a polyglot mix of locals and tourists enjoying their E.A.T. favorites, whether it’s matzo ball soup or a caviar omelet.

CATERING

Party Time

The lovely sun-filled second floor space, in E.A.T.’s signature black and white color scheme, is also available to book for parties. Reserve for private Sunday brunches, book clubs, ladies’ lunches or children’s parties, or it works equally as well for cocktails and private dinners. Contact us at parties@elizabar.com
