The Velvet Ditch - Sports bar & Seafood

Harrison is the man

Finally got to spend some time here on a Sunday. Watched the Saints game. Really cool vibe and tons of TVs to see your favorite game. Hang out outside or inside. We chose to eat and drink at the bar. When we got inside we were having trouble finding a spot but one of the staff came up and asked us what we needed and they found a way to get us in at the bar by moving one of the chairs to where there were no 2 seats together. Drinks were so delicious. We ordered different type of martinis and ended up getting a couple of appetizers. Service was excellent, atmosphere was super nice and the place is decorated in a pleasing and yet elegant way. Definitely will go back and have another Sunday Funday there.

A lot of work is put into this place. Highly recommend stopping here, especially during game day. It is very upkeep and ran properly and the food is delicious.

We had a great experience here while visiting Oxford. Sandra and Jared were amazing and showed classic southern hospitality! Fun atmosphere to watch games and the food and drinks were great. Highly recommend the tuna nachos!

Bouncer grabbed me by the neck and threw me out for no reason! He needs to be fired. Shielded security needs to be sued. I will inform my lawyer…

Had an amazing time! I brought all of my LSU friends the Friday before the game. It was PACKED, but the staff was so accommodating to us, making sure we had everything we need. Shoutout to our server Harrison and bartender JD!

One star for food service ending at 9 on Saturday. Biggest bs ever for a restaurant aiming to appeal to locals. As for the food, the famous crawfish is only memorable for the amount of salt you taste in lieu of anything else. Come only for the red velvet cake, but make sure it's before 9!!!
