BATON ROUGE. Long-lived and much-loved, this place is a great gathering place for college folks and those just out of that scene. The Caterie always offers a good supply of fun, and its casual ambience means that anyone can stop by and feel comfortable. Although it's more familiar as a bar, the place offers tasty pub fare, including sandwiches, burgers, and classic po'boys. Local bands play throughout the week, and you can also shoot pool, try your hand at foosball, or just sit and enjoy well-priced beer and free conversation.

BATON ROUGE. Dim, casual, and laid-back, George's feels like the neighborhood joint it is. There's no stand-out decor or gimmicks, just satisfying bar food that goes more for taste and substance than health. As a result, you'll find bacon cheeseburgers, steaks, a catfish plate, oyster po'boys, chicken and okra gumbo, and a chicken-fried steak sandwich. Pecan pie's for dessert, and a full bar will set you up with a cold beer to wash it all down. This is the original location and there are 3 others around town. Their motto? "You'll Fit Right In !"

BATON ROUGE. Known in college towns and downtowns for its hippy aesthetic and inventive pizzas, this quirky chain emphasizes only fresh ingredients spread across hand-rolled, spring-water dough. Menu highlights include the Gourmet White (with sun-dried tomatoes, minced garlic, and olive oil) and Mighty Meaty (with pepperoni, sausage, ground beef, ham, and bacon). In addition, they serve up tasty appetizers that go great with cold brews, including the garlic butter and parmesan-heavy Totally Twisted Pretzels.

BATON ROUGE. This oft-frequented place, with its pub-like interior, boasts a wealth of LSU sports memorabilia.

Throughout the week, you'll also find a handful of daily specials, including pork chops, pasta, and red beans and rice. And just so there's no confusion: Customers place their own orders at the counter and pick them up when everything's ready.

DOWNTOWN. With a reputation built on great burgers, Riverside Patty is a lunchtime classic. Many folks feel so favorably about it that it can be hard to get a place inside. Of course, call-ahead take-out is available too. Hefty burgers are perfectly cooked and juicy, topped with lettuce, tomato, onion, and the like. They also come accompanied with terrific seasoned fries. Other options, if you're not in the mood for red meat, include chicken strips, po'boys, and seafood. Another location is on Cloverland Ave in Siegen.

BATON ROUGE. Something of a cross between a bar-and-grill and a sports bar, this popular restaurant is convenient to LSU and promotes its school spirit with a wealth of university athletic memorabilia. It also offers plenty of satisfying fare, including TJ's signature babyback ribs, other barbecue dishes, and pub food. You'll also find a buffalo chicken salad and a brisket salad if you want something savory without all the added calories. Especially fun (and crowded!) on game days.
Looking for light and tasty dishes with a quick turn-around time? Or perhaps a power lunch to close the deal? Here, you’ll find the right setting for either! An assortment of decors from casual and sporty to sophisticated and businesslike. You may also find the option of ordering take-out food.
