Central Station — Restaurant in Shreveport

I came from out of town (from California) for the holidays and decided to stop by for New Year's Eve. Best decision ever! The building itself is charming, spacious, and beautiful decorated with three separate bar spaces and lots of room to dance. The bartenders were friendly and the drinks were delicious and far cheaper than I'm used to which was a blessing.

I admit I have pretty bad social anxiety so I was wary about going (as I went alone) but everyone was so friendly and kind- I truly felt like I belonged. Not often I can go to a club/bar and enjoy myself so freely. But something about this place, it was magical. Patrons were so welcoming and I felt right at home! One of the older regulars even gave me a tour of the place and helped wingman me until I found other people closer to my age to dance with! The drag show was fantastic as well- the Queens were intensely charismatic and so talented and hilarious to boot.

I highly recommend stopping by whether local or from out-of-town! I wish I lived nearby so I could come...

Keep in mind I’m from Atlanta. I was excited to go with my daughter and her friend who were visiting from out of town. We arrived about 11:00pm, but the place didn’t get popping until 12:00am. My drink tasted good even though I like mine tall which my bartender tried to accommodate me by giving me extra juice in another cup, the staff was adequate (plenty, and not rude, but not super friendly either), the music was like techno disco (not my personal choice), many patrons gave compliments to me and my people, and the bathrooms were clean, but what made me give this place 3 stars was the atmosphere. It just needs some more cool decor. It was kind of bland for a place that lets people be who they are. Also, people weren’t really dancing! Maybe it was the music, maybe it was because people weren’t ready to let loose. I’m guessing I may have come too early, and maybe left too soon. Either way, it was only 3...

I visit here every weekend i love the atmosphere great people always friendly the only thing i do have a problem with is the music ughhh omg it can really suck at times if they would play more update music they would make EVEN more money than they do already. If you ask anyone that comes there what would they change 9x10 they would say the music everyone is not in to techno just as well not everyone is into rap and r&b but i have noticed when "that girl" dj the crowd is so interacting and upbeat just something...
