The Most Scrumptious Sports Bars in New Orleans

J & K Bar

★★★★☆ 3.7 (6) • $

"Best dive bar in Algiers!!! Three pool tables, some video games, plus video poker machines.Love the regulars that go. They treat every one like family."

Pit Stop Saloon

★★★☆☆ 3 (1) • $$

"This isn't exactly my favorite bar for just a couple reasons. One reason is there isn't much ventilation so it's super smokey in there. Another reason is I'm not a real fan of the layout and the prices are kind of high. This bar however does have some good qualities. They make one of the best bloody marys around! Also, they have pool tables and dart boards. They always seem to have something to nibble on from hot dogs, to nachos, to pasta."

Galvez Seafood

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (77) • $$

"We Galvez Seafood! on the food, service and atmosphere! No small portions here and you get exactly what your tastebuds desire. These days with the COVID virus everyone acts different. Mask or no mask. They have an outdoor eating or socializing area. We highly recommend this wonderful Louisiana/Cajun seafood"

Jockey's Pub & Sports Bar

★★★★☆ 4.3 (30) • $

"Awesome neighborhood bar. Friendly atmosphere and good, strong drinks.No kitchen but sometimes they do events. Like them on Facebook to stay up-to-date on special events."

Fred's in Tigerland

★★★★☆ 3.5 (29) • $

"The music selection isn't the best, it's the same every week. The drinks are good and they always have great deals such as open bar from 8-10 every Friday with a $10 cover if you have your LSU student ID. They also have $1 drinks no cover on Thursday. Now, remember this is generally a college bar located in a college town it's not upscale so it's not fancy but if you want a good time and good company Fred's is a great place to go. The bartenders are friendly and people go here to have a good time, if you're looking for a fancy bar this isn't it but I wouldn't say it's classless, get a bunch of drunk people in a bar and what do you expect. Fred's is great."

Fat Pat's Bar & Grill

★★★★☆ 3.5 (59) • $$

"I love to visit this place! It's so close by that I always keep this in mind while making food decisions. They have a peanut butter bacon burger that is so delicious!! My favorite type of burger since I've tried this one. The mile high burger is also a good burger to try but is very full. The strawberry smoothie was surprisingly delicious and very well made. Love this place! Try it!"

Hurricanes Sports Bar

★★★★☆ 3.9 (13) • $$

"Not bad, if you know what you are getting into.Hurricane's hosts a lot of cover bands, and that's usually how I find myself here. If you are lucky, you will get a spot by the bar, during the busier shows. If you aren't lucky, you will have to wade through a crowd of people to get one beer. It's Metairie, so there's smoking but their filter system is pretty decent. The beer selection is pretty good- they had Lagunitas on tap the last time I was here. Staff is always friendly and there are pool tables in the back, if you're into that type of thing."

The Beaded Oak

★★★★☆ 3.8 (12)

"Cool little spot! I am super picky about a Hurricane and this guy has it RIGHT! Also didn't judge my touristy drunk choice like the snooty bars on Magazine! Also try the drink called "De-railed". Super bad ass! Go!"

IceHouse Tap Room

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (29) • $

""Beautiful bar/lounge area, juicy burgers and panini sandwiches". 18 & over only restaurant/bar. It definitely looked like and "Ice House" as soon as I walked in with the use of the icy blue colors as the overall theme of the restaurant-bar. I have been a couple times and love the atmosphere. Their flagship menu item is the "KP Burger" and that was quite impressive... never had anything like it. If you love philly cheese steak and burgers, well this comes as a no-brainer... they are combined in this entree and blend harmoniously well! As for sandwiches, the Louisiana Grilled Cheese is another favorite and I loved it though I will have to be back during the height of crawfish season because instead of shrimp, it's crawfish! During my first visit, the servers were on top of things and very pro-active; however, during my last visit, the server neglected to acknowledge the Yelp check-in offer. She was asked - once by me and twice by the friend I was with. So that was the only flaw. Other than that, this is a great place for post-work cocktails, happy hour, late night bites and a fun place to chillax. There is a huge outdoor patio area and the indoor lounge space is perfect for larger groups!* Baton Rouge bar and grill * Baton Rouge happy hour spot * Huge lounge area * huge bar area * Burgers * Paninis * Sandwiches * 18 and over *"

Sporting News Grill

★★★☆☆ 2.6 (18) • $$

"I am staying here at holiday inn express teaching in the area. Wanted to eat somewhere close and watch some football and work on the computer. Sports Pub&Grill was perfect. Atmosphere and food were fantastic, my server, Kaitlynn was outstanding. She worked her ass off for everyone seated and did not slow down. I asked for recommendations off then menu and was not disappointed with to soup special and chicken sandwich! Fantastic experience and I will be back!"

Mugshots Grill & Bar

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (152) • $$

"Love this place...we stop here every time we make the trip to Baton Rouge as a rest stop. Food is great, staff is great, AYCD mimosas are great...and for some reason this location is always slow, so rarely a wait. Get there!"

200 North Beach Restaurant & Bar

★★★★☆ 3.6 (251) • $$

"This is our favorite little spot in Bay St Louis. The upstairs bar and balcony are perfect for date night. Food and drinks are always good. I will post photos next time we go. The servers are always very sweet and go above and beyond."

Triple Play

★★★★☆ 4.3 (8) • $

"Great karaoke on Friday nights! Tank, the karaoke DJ is a great host, the music selection is great, and the set up/equipment is top notch. The crowd has a ton of participation and everyone really cheers on the singers.Even though Jefferson Parish allows smoking in bars, I didn't find the place to be too overly smokey."

Kappy's Daiquiri & Sports Grill

★★★★★ 4.6 (21) • $$

"I came in with the expectation that it is simply a bar. Nothing more. Nothing less. I didn't expect to have as much fun as I did. It was karaoke night with a costume party. And I had a bless. The daiquiris were decent, but the crowd was FABULOUS. The locals were everything. By the end of the night, I knew half of the people's first name. The food was typical fried food. The problem was that all the food is fried in the same grease, and since deep fried crab cakes and fried pork skins were on the menu, I passed on the food. When I come back, I'll probably eat before I come and simply have dessert. Yes, I will be back!"

Spanky's Daiquiris - Burbank

★★★★☆ 4.4 (7)

"This is a cute daiquiri shop that doubles as a neighborhood bar. Nick is an awesome bartender. The people are friendly - both patrons and employees. The employees are helpful. And the daiquiris are made locally and so pack more of a punch than many of the daiquiris that are pre-made."

Thai Kitchen

★★★★☆ 3.8 (179) • $$

"We tried Thai Kitchen for the first time last night, and we really enjoyed it! We each started with a summer roll, and it was nicely done with fresh veggies. My wife had the peanut chicken dish, and I had the shrimp cashew nut dinner. We enjoyed our respective dishes, which were properly seasoned and full of fresh veggies. Service was prompt and police, and the ambiance was delightfully local. We'll be back!"

Perry's Sports Bar & Grill

★★★★☆ 3.7 (18) • $

"Greta Bartenders Jessica & Jacob! Friday nights w/Jacob are lit,hanging out w/Jess is always cool and fun. Burgers are huge and ."

Fifteen25 Lounge

★★★★☆ 4.3 (19)

"If you're in Marrero and looking for great food and an even better atmosphere, Fifteen 25 is the spot! The ambience is perfect--chic, cozy, and welcoming. The owner is super cool and makes you feel right at home.The food? Incredible. I tried the salmon bites and the Bang Bang Shrimp, and both were absolute standouts! They're seasoned to perfection and packed with flavor. Honestly, I couldn't resist snapping a picture before diving in.If you're looking for a place with delicious food and good vibes, look no further than Fifteen 25. I'll definitely be back!"

Patio 17 Daiquiri & Grill

★★★☆☆ 3 (3)

"We asked the server for recommendations and the food did not miss. The East East burger was incredible.Every bite of the red beans and rice with fried catfish was mouthwatering.The staff was welcoming and nice. When we visit New Orleans again we will definitely be back."

Gennaro's Bar and Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.5 (15) • $$

"As my local watering hole, this ole rathskeller never fails to put a smile on my face after a long day at the factory. What to choose? A cold Stella on draft or a domestic bottle from the 100 year old fridge that always cools to a perfect 34 degrees? I'll have both. I'll also have some hushpuppies... with butter dipping sauce. Gennaros is a locals bar, a timeless fixture here on ole Metry Road. Great people, great bartenders, fair prices. BOTTOM LINE: A fantastic ole saloon in the heart of Metry."

Stray Cats

★★★★★ 5 (2)

"Clean with a friendly bartender... Drinks were a decent price. The crowd seemed chill... Tons of beautiful pool tables."

The Crossroads

★★★★★ 5 (3)

"This is a pretty tucked away bar that you might miss if you are zooming away down Jefferson highway. If you come across the crossroads, be sure to stop because the inside is dope.Very very clean bar which is saying a lot from a guy who loves nothing more than dive bars. They look like they really took the time during Covid to take care of the place. Drinks are a plenty and they have regulars here which is always a good sign for me when it comes to bars.Karaoke on Fridays which is great for me and the wife, we love to sing and not afraid of who has to hear it. HahaLooking forward to many more nights at the crossroads. Give it a try!"

Cheers

★★★★★ 4.8 (9) • $

"Kat the bartender is the Irish car bomb champion. Cheap drinks, good vibes what more does one need. Smoking at the bar, the level of local debauchery here is at a 10. As a transplant from New York, I must say I give Cheers a two thumbs up. Come to metry for a true LA dive bar experience. You will not regret it!"

Daquiri Stop

★★★★☆ 4.4 (11) • $

"Came here to introduce my friend to "drive through alcohol." Seems like everyone who isn't from Lousiana finds drive through daqueri amazing. I honestly don't even remember what I ordered but we got the "house special" which was a mix between 2 flavors. It was delicious and they were generous with the alcohol. I didn't actually go inside so I can't comment on how clean or nice it was but the waitress who served us through the window was really nice and explained different flavors."

Spanky's Sports Bar

★★★★☆ 4 (9) • $$

"A nice sized bar that is a pretty good place to watch a game. They have a lot of pool tables, and serve food if you are hungry. Nothing fancy as far as drinks go, but they do have bucket specials. Smoking is allowed, but their smoke eaters do a good job of keep up with all of it, so it's not too much of a problem."

Markey's Bar

★★★★☆ 4 (87) • $

"Many tvs at the bar to watch a game of your choice. And a very good selection of bar food, a great place right around the corner from the best pool in all.of New Orleans. As a new owner in the upper 9th, I will definitely frequent this establishment. Not to mention the bartenders have the heavy new orleans pour well all know and love. In my rotation for sure!"

Daiquiri Run on 61

★★★★☆ 4.3 (66) • $

"I've known that this was my niece's favorite spot to get seasonal eggnog daiquiris so I decided to stop in and try some of their standard flavors for myself. And yes they do have a drive thru!I wandered in and was impressed with the amount of seating and there seemed to be several groups who were having their regular Saturday evening meetup in the shop. There is a pool table and the decent looking menu plus the space is no smoking... although there are tables outside for the smokers.I ordered 2 daiquiris to go, a chocolate strawberry and a mango pina colada. The server was great and friendly. Both daiquiris were yummy and they were inexpensive! Definitely stopping in again!"

Mama's Place

★★★★☆ 4.3 (49) • $

"Great owner, great food, great pours. Excellent establishment to watch an LSU game or just chill with friends and grab some wings and onion rings."

The Daq Shaq

★★★★☆ 3.5 (6) • $$

"This place is amazing. These Daq Shaqs have drive thru which makes drinking super convenient. These daqs pack a punch. Definitely recommend!"

The Pit Sports Bar & Daiquiris

★★★★★ 5 (4) • $$

"You will certainly really love The Pit Sports Bar & Daiquiris. It's kinda the perfect location. Every thing was fresh, flavorful, and really yummy. Staff was really nice - absolutely genuine. The Pit Sports Bar & Daiquiris is by far the best of the best in this area."

Beer Bellys

★★★★☆ 4.3 (12)

"My Favorite place to hang out in Plaquemine! This bar is so clean it's almost sterile. Bathrooms are pretty damn clean as well. Cheap beers, drinks aren't too bad either. The hamburgers are amazing, only wish there was more than one cheese option for it, definitely worth the price! Some decent bands play there, haven't experienced karaoke yet. Great place for watching sports! Bartenders are friendly and efficient. The owners are a presence that is always welcome as they are super friendly! It's Always so welcoming going here. I love it"

Nooley's

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (53) • $$

"I have been coming here since they first opened! I really like the wings, they're super good. The burger is awesome as well, full of flavor. My favorite though would have to be the steak and the chicken bombs. The chicken bombs are heavenly. They're breaded chicken stuffed with cream cheese and jalapeños The only reason I gave them 4 out of 5 is because they are out of steak a lot. There have been many times I wanted it and they were completely out. Other than that, I love it! Oh and the onion rings are incredible!"

Manning's Sports Bar and Grill

★★★☆☆ 2.7 • $$

"Location was easy walking distance from Caesars Casino. I came here on a Sunday to watch the Texans. The sports bar is huge and the bar itself has plenty of seating. There is also stadium seating with a large ceiling to floor TV! I believe there is a minimum purchase tab of $100 to sit there and watch your game. You may request your team's game on tv at the bar and they will tune it in for you!I sat at the bar and had the best wings in New Orleans which were buffalo hot. Had a few Abita drafts to wash them down. Service was decent and adequate. Decor of course revolves around the Manning family whom are football royalty. Will definitely stop by again in the future when in town."

The Exchange

★★★★★ 4.7 (15)

"Pickleball and a bar all under one A/C'd roof? I'm down! My husband and I witnessed firsthand a Pickleball session on a cruise 2 years ago when we saw a couple playing on a reserved court. Time on the court had to be scheduled and unfortunately we snoozed on planning it out. As we watched this couple enjoy play, we vowed to seize the next opportunity. While vacationing in NOLA I typed in "Pickleball courts" on Yelp. Lo and behold, The Exchange popped up and it was less than a half hour from our hotel in the Warehouse District.We scheduled a Learn to Play session with an instructor. Unfortunately, the instructor assigned to our small group class of 6 bailed out on us. We had an evening class that was supposed to start at 5:30pm. It was already half past so their GM (Ray) stepped in and taught us the basics. Ray overall was an awesome trainer. He drilled us on the basic skills, was very patient with us and provided pointers on how to perfect stance and technique. We had a great time and went away with a bit of knowledge and appreciation for the game.I would love to see something like this in the Midwest. If you're a Pickleball fan or are curious about the sport, check The Exchange out."

The Bulldog

★★★★☆ 3.9 (188) • $$

"They do trivia, take home cup days, allow dog, have front and back patio, and plenty of TVs. It can get loud but the atmosphere is great when a big event or holiday comes. Giving it a 3 because I am not a fan of the noise level and they make you buy fries separate with a burger. I always have a reason so meet here but I never pick it as my first choice of bar."
