Causeway Bar & Grill — Restaurant in Louisiana

My friends and I had a great time doing karaoke on Sunday night. EVERY SUNDAY NIGHT, NOW! It's an inviting atmosphere to sing and dance around because there is no "stage" to intimidate people who are stage fright. It feels like you are in a garage basement doing karaoke, country like. Drinks are super cheap (like omg, just moved here from Cali, and I'm floored by the drink prices). I'm a career bartender, so I gave my bartender a 💯% tip because it was so cheap, and I think they only get paid a few bucks an hour in this state (which is bogus uugghh). She wasn't overly friendly or welcoming (probably because her hourly is worthless), but she got me what I needed. There was another girl there who was working (maybe owner or manager), and she came out to watch us, dance with us, and participate. They did have a food menu that looked like good bar food, but I didn't see anyone eating anything, so my fiance and I skipped ordering and just had a good time with new friends. We are definitely making this a regular thing. We had such a great time. They also have a shuffle board and a claw machine. I won 3 different beanie babies, and my friends got some bigger stuffies. We put them all over our tables; we felt like adult children.

LAST THOUGHT: ALWAYS TIP YOUR BARTENDER, WELL! We make our living off of tips. I agree that you should always have an inviting and helpful attitude with a SMILE, but not every bartender is like that....just tip well, please. If you tip well even with an attitude, I guarantee you won't get that attitude when you go BACK to the bar to get another round. You have to earn your place, too, with your bartender. Let them know how important and valuable they are to...

I finally decided to stop in and try the food here. The sign out front made me curious. What exactly is eggplant gravy? Smoking area in a covered area in front of the bar. This is exactly the kind of place I would frequent when I was drinking. A kind of hole in the wall place with working class clientele. I didn't work up the nerve to ask about the eggplant gravy. I did order the bacon cheeseburger, fully dressed and fries. It was pretty darn good. Friendly employees. There are gambling machines, a dartboard, one of those claw machines, a shuffleboard. There were several televisions on and all playing different sports balls games. The parking lot is kind of tricky. If you park in front, the only way out is via Causeway just south of Veterans where the traffic is all together to filter back on Causeway, or the service road and I-10. So be aware of your...

We were in town for the weekend and stumbled upon this gem of a bar. We had so much fun that we came in Friday night, Saturday night, and Sunday for lunch before we headed home to Alabama. Great staff, great food, great drinks, great atmosphere! We loved the meatballs and red gravy so much that we bought some to bring home with us!!! We also tried the bacon cheeseburger and grilled chicken sandwich and they were both excellent. Love that they dress everything with fresh veggies grown on site! Carmel was so much fun and she is great at her job! Her bubbly personality is contagious! Mark was so nice and really makes the place feel like you have been coming there forever. We will definitely come back next time we...
