Eagle Performing Arts Center


25 N. Main St.

Fall River, MA

The historic and majestic Eagle Restaurant, modeled to resemble steamship saloons on the once-great Fall River line, was rebuilt in 1929 after the city's traumatic downtown fire.

Presently the Donovan family has refurbished the former Eagle Restaurant by removing the 1980's bar in the center of the main oval-shaped hall, installing a new hardwood floor, and refurbishing the wooden stage for bands and disc jockeys to its original form and materials.

Some 20 booths for 4-6 people ring the main floor with wood inlayed high ceilings and tall windows giving a majesty to the premises.

There is parking for 50 vehicles behind the building on Purchase St. and additional on-street parking on the weekends.
