The Bad Apple Saloon Bar and Grill — Restaurant in Lake Charles

I choose to go to an old haunt that i used to enjoy visiting on occasion, especially for games (usually football, but the other day was basketball). No Mention of kitchen closing was announced, so we got no appetizers at first. The bartender did not make it seem that she necessarily wanted to be there. She picked up all the bar mats at about 11 pm (in the middle of the game we were watching), which was 4 hours before closing. I checked the time and made sure of the hours, as this, done with no hesitation nor explanation, made us feel we should leave. After finding the hours to be fine, we asked for a round, and only one person of three was served. She then was hanging with some new patrons, and we couldn't get her attention for the rest of our order for a while. We did enjoy ourselves, though, despite the small setbacks.

All in all, it was less pleasing than in years past. I hope the next...

Definitely a great local spot. We were passing through town and stopped here for bar food and draft beer. The food was hot and exactly what fried bar food should be - salty and everything served with dipping sauce. The drafts were cold and served in pre chilled glasses. Sitting at the bar, it was clearly a place that draws a steady stream of regulars. Not dirty or dingey enough to call it a "dive" but those good...

Best low-key watering hole in LC! Friendly and personal staff. Some of the best prices in town. Great food featuring excellent breakfasts and affordable bar bites. Dedicated family of regulars, yet newcomers are always welcomed warmly. Bonus- They don't put up with any fights or similar nonsense that plague a lot of other local bars. Great place for some chill chats over...
