Excellent service from Danielle and August! I'm picky with drinks and Danielle went off-script from the menu to make sure I had something really sweet, just as I wanted it :) If you like sweet drinks asks for August's key lime pie shots or the bourbon apple - both were delish.
I'm not a fan of oysters by themselves, but mine were great paired with the bread. My yard bird sandwich was nice and crispy, the duck fat fries were on point, and we enjoyed the duck wraps as well. Thanks again!

So glad I found this spot on the river and above Cotton. Cool, open air patio/bar overlooking the Ouachita River. Inside high top seating with a vintage dive-bar feel. Love that there always seems to be a bar seat on the rail when I come in, and friendly and attentive waitstaff. The food, flavor and presentation, is very good, it's a limited but varied menu, and I haven't had anything that wasn't tasty. Well worth a stop.

If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would! Cody and Michael were incredible — friendly, attentive, and clearly passionate about what they do. Every drink was perfectly mixed and came out quickly, even with a packed bar. They made everyone feel welcome, remembered our names, and somehow kept the vibe fun and relaxed all at once. You can tell they genuinely love making people’s night better. Definitely the kind of bartenders who turns a regular evening out into a great experience. Highly recommend! 🍸🍹

Take the side stairs up & above Cotton restaurant, hang a right, then a left, and another right, where you'll find one of the best views of the Ouachita river, sip on custom made drinks from excellent bartenders, and enjoy the results of delicious pizza recipes crafted with lots of TLC and attention to detail. The balcony is a great place to watch the sunset over the water or a mardi gras parade cross the bridge. One of my favorite spots in Monroe.
Planters is seriously my husband and I’d favorite spot for dinner or brunch. Every time we see that August is here we know that we are going to receive excellent service PLUS a well crafted drink!
