50 Best Bars near Port Allen

“Great place to go to find an easy hook up. Bartender/now Homewrecker got me to leave my fiancé and 3 kids and even lied to my fiancé for me. Easy lay and now homewrecker.“

“If I could give this place 6 stars, I would. I don’t normally write such a lengthy review, but I had one of the best (of quite a few) experiences there just yesterday, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the kindness Swamp Shack delivers on. One, I’m so picky about daiquiris- especially the alcohol used in them - and this place is genuinely my favorite. Their margarita daiquiri is phenomenal (but especially when combined with jalapeño and watermelon, salt rim. Try it - seriously.) Two, if their daiquiris weren’t delicious enough, they CONSISTENTLY have some of the best customer service I’ve ever received - in general. It’s drive-thru only unfortunately, but if I’m having a bad day, I still feel better just passing through there as quickly as I do. (Owners, I’m sure you know, but yall are so lucky to have Jordin. She’s seriously amazing. For real though - she deserves Something! Lol) And three, with all that you’d think they’d be expensive, but their prices are beyond competitive - even when adding a different flavor to the daiquiri. Even if you have to drive, make this your new go-to. You won’t regret it! 🥰“

“Went there for the first time Saturday night. We had a good time. If you drink beer or a daiquiri you’re in good shape. I ask for a gin and tonic, no tonic. They had soda water, so I tried it, ok. Otherwise had a fun time listening to reflections and dancing.“

“10/10 recommend the amaretto and pineapple daiquiri and the legal marijuana daiquiri they are sooooo good“

“My wife and i were surprised at the relatively dissapointing nightlife in downtown Baton Rouge. As we drove, she searched for a speakeasy. We came upon Hayride Scandal. Parking was easy, as we came upon the location nestled alongside a Hooters. Tall wooden doors open to a very nicely decored bar room. Darkly tone wood accents with bar or lounge seating. We choose the bar, as it is my habit to strike up conversations with the mixologists and learn about the establishment. 5 stars go to Brian, who was willing to engage my questions and then 3 mixology challenges. Classic black & white movies play on monitors over the bar tv. Fellow bar patrons were excellent conversation and an opportunity to wish them a happy birthday. Brian and Hayride Scandal made up for a great Saturday evening. Highly recommend this locale for all!“

“I think this is the first time I’ve reviewed a bar. My boss man with Oxbow brought us to this bar and holy smokes this was a throw back bar. Super clean and no smoke! Drinks were good and reasonably price. No kids so not stupid fights and even though there was no music requests the music provided by the bar was legit! Everytime I come Baton Rouge from now on I’m going to make this my spot. Can’t recommend enough“

“Went in randomly being in town for lunch and stopped in for a drink and fell in love! Our bartender Ashley was so friendly and helpful and our drinks were out of this world! Wonderful relaxing atmosphere with so much to offer! Can’t wait to go back!“

“Awesome bar with great people and good. Keep an eye out for the specials bc they have some killer deals. The Winona burger and fries were amazing! Will definitely return if I’m ever back in town. It looks like they are set up for live music but even if no band is playing they still have great taste in music playing in the background. One pool table and multiple tvs if you want to watch some sports and hangout. Highly recommend.“

“Great Chill Place!! Great Ppl!! ❤️“

“Marlon is the best bartender ever! Anytime I don’t know what I want to drink, he’ll come up with something for me and he never misses! Also everyone in there is so nice and friendly. It’s a fun hole in the wall with great prices& fast, friendly service!“

“This place never fails to impress. Some of the best wings you will ever find“

“The flavorful sauces have me hooked! I love the tangerine beef! It’s worth a try if you’re looking for good Chinese food.“

“great atmosphere and wonderful service 😸“

“Great relaxed place. Has drink options for everyone. They also have great food options for everyone. There are also many fun events to attend.“

“Awesome Place for Everyone“

“I always have an wonderful time at Lakeside Daqaires. They uave pool tables and darts with music. Its peaceful and a nice place to go. They also have out door seating. They have big tv eith all sports. I had a wonderful time and I will be going back.“

“The total package-food, drinks, atmosphere and amazing staff.“

“I have been at this location a couple times. I looked this last time the best. First, the place did not smell like alcohol that had been sitting too long. It actually smelled clean. That drew me in immediately. I like the flavors. I tried a new mixture called Barbie Gurl. It consisted of pina colada, strawberry, peach bellini, and crawgator. It mixed so well. I drink half of it before I realized to take a picture. I would definitely order that again since I got the extra large. Also, the young gentleman that was behind the counter was so nice, personable, and professional. He explained what the drinks were and how strong they were.“

“I recommend white widow with garlic herb 🥖 it was a delicious !“

“I throughly enjoyed my salad for lunch. It was fresh and delicious. I loved the atmosphere and service was timely and friendly. I will be back!!“

“Great place to grab a drink after work or even on the weekend.“

“I have to take a moment to PRAISE Radio Bar! They are just fan-freaking-tastic. They hosted the Baton Rouge Improv Festival’s opening night this evening and were the most wonderful hosts. They went above and beyond to share their space with us and were so helpful - even let us store the stage there for a night when we asked if it was possible. Special shout out to Caleb and JP and all the amazing team members that we interacted with. You were all outstanding and we look forward to being back with you on Sunday night!! Also side note - I was SO impressed with the work ethic of the team - they do NOT let an empty glass sit! They were so quick and just all around wonderful. Thank you all so much!!“

“Love this place so much! ❤️“

“Friendly staff and reasonable prices.“

“food was delicious. I tried three different things and will be back for more!“

“The cigar aficionado’s favorite place.“

“Awesome owner no need to say more!“

“So the first time me and my husband went there we had got these huge daiquiris at wind up sitting in our freezer for weeks so we went back again we got smaller ones and they were delicious I got the Henny Margarita he got the the suicide one he didn't really like all the flavors but the Henny Margarita is everything so the next time I passed by there I will get the larger one“

“Damn, what a spot. For game day there is no better place than right here at Fred's. What a great time. The bartender Mathew took awesome care of us and he ran the bar like a boss. How can it get any better when the big man himself is on the grill cooking all the steaks and his wife is keeping it straight on when you get your food. Great times and look forward to going back every time on game day.“

“LOVE this place!!!! Very social, entertaining and clean. The staff is wonderful, too. Lara was so sweet! I’m not from the area and she was so kind and welcoming to me. They have great deals, the drinks are so cute and it was just a great atmosphere. I’ll definitely be visiting again!“

“Great music drinks and atmosphere“

“Hey as an alcohol....I mean an alcohol Connoisseur, I can say we may hold these truths, not all daiquiri places are created equal.Spanks has to be one of my all time favorites! Out side of their long menu of different flavors and choices, the staff will help you with a drink of your own! My favorite drink at this location HAS TO BE the Victoria’s Secret. Think of a strawberry pina colada. It’s littt, with Three Ts. If you see me there ordering 4 to go, mind ya business, but say what’s up.“

“Always the BEST! The food, service and Margaritas are Excellent!!!“

“Say with Essen great service“

“It’s a great idea for the weekend to get together with your friends and have drinks and listen to music. The bar is really nice and it’s patio is really nice with lots of people dancing drinking and having fun with friends and other people. I guarantee you that if you are rap fan and blues fan you will love it but you can always order food if you’re hungry and need to feed your face to constantly drink and party then you will have a great time at Duece’s. So club nights are always good if there are no one there trying to get a fight plus the security is very tight and they ensure you have a blast without drama. Check out this spot.“

“First time there. Staff was friendly and quick. Really enjoyed listening to Drama Kings while I ate“

“come see me I work there lets have a cold one“

“Definitely my favorite bar in Tigerland. If you go, you absolutely have to try the pizza. It is the perfect combination of sauce, cheese and grease. Has some of the best looking workers I’ve seen in all my years. The new renovation is beautiful, especially the ladies restroom.“

“On 8/11/23. Never been here before but my husband friend invited us. It's definitely the older crowd. I like that, bc I don't do clubs. Parking is limited, inside space is limited but it's not crowded..no shoulder to shoulder. They played good music(a real dj ??), everyone was dancing the drinks are good. They cook food on the outside. If I had to say if I would go back I would. Only downside is they give u your ice in a bowl. It wouldn't be much if they get some of those ice buckets from Dollar tree to make it a little let hood. Other than that it's a nice chill spot. oh yeah, they HAVE SECURITYThe one across the street seem a little more wide open. The younger crowd. I don't do that.“

“I have been coming here since the bar opened. I am more than satisfied!“

“My husband and I came down from Illinois to visit relatives and I wanted a daiquiri badly. Saw several reviews about a lady working or worked here that was rude. I wasn't going to stop here but I took a chance. Sage was very nice! He spoke, he was polite and friendly. So glad the customer service is better. Drinks are good, too. It wasn't busy or crowded. I'd definitely recommend!“

“Very spacious and modern. It has a large stage for live music. It also has a VIP Section in the back as well as an outdoor patio in the front.

Personally, I would recommend that the Bar offer a little more variety in alcoholic beverages.
More Exotic & Foreign Beers. More Traditional Cocktails and Wines. Uncle Earl’s already has an impressive selection. But if you want to be competitive in the race. The more, the merrier.

The Management & Staff at Uncle Earl’s are hands down, the friendliest that I’ve seen in quite some time. They relish your business and go above and beyond in service.
This should give them a powerful edge over other places that sometimes act like customers are plentiful & replaceable. Here, they truly appreciate your business.

Also, this is a great place for Private Parties and gatherings. There are plenty of TVs to watch your favorite sports.

It has a great location, easy to get to from wherever you live. The parking is in the rear of the strip-like mall.

I’m not sure if they offer food.

This would be a good place to meet up with family and friends during weekdays after work as well as on weekends.“

“Great drinks, cool hip vibe“

“I only wish I could've stopped eating long enough to take a picture. Some of the BEST wings I have ever eaten! If you're in the area and love good music, atmosphere and people...then don't pass by this place. I'll definitely be back!“

“everything is all good and also have great music“
