Marty's is a bar, grill and music club owned by Marty Eagle and located at 1813 10th Court South in Five Points South. Eagle owned the Eagle's Nest in Lakeview before moving his operation to Five Points South in 1993.
The club is known for its free-ranging open mic nights and its support for up-and-coming local bands, including blues, jazz, and traditional music alongside rock and pop. The kitchen is known for its late-night burgers. Marty is known for his gruff charm and his simple rule, "Be Nice or Be Gone", a philosophy which he promulgates in a mail-order video called "How to Find Happiness Owning a Bar".
Marty's also has pool tables, a lending library and a sweeping mural painted in 2003 by Richard DiMarzo.
