Our Beer
Nola Brewing Hopitoulas
Created at NOLA's Tchoupitoulas Street brewery, this IPA was hand crafted with six malts and six hops. This big, beautiful beer is dry hopped with Amarillo and Simcoe hops to accentuate aromas of citrus and pine
Nola Brewing's Lowerline Sour
The Funk Series of wild ales is Nola Brewing's calling card. This dry-hopped version of its Lowerline sour drinks quite easily. Lactobacillus gives it a sour pucker and Galaxy hops bring out notes of tropical fruit in the finish
Abita Purple Haze
Crisp, American style wheat beer w/ raspberries added during secondary fermentation. Fruity aroma and tartly sweet taste
Nola Brewing 7th Street Wheat
Light-bodied American style wheat w/ pounds of fresh lemon-basil added after fermentation. The light citrus taste w/ a hint of spicy herb goes well with almost any seafood dish
Victory Prima Pils
Heaps o' hops are hiding under the full, frothy head of this elegant Pils. All German malt subtleties beneath a dry finish
2sp up & Out IPA
Brewed with Simcoe, Cascade, & Mosaic hops. It's got a big aroma, moderately bitter, and is earthy with notes of stone fruit, berry, & citrus
Ballast Point Grapefruit Sculpin
The latest take on Ballast Point's IPA. The tart freshness of grapefruit perfectly complements this IPA's citrusy hop character
Left Hand Blackcurrant Nitro
Cream ale with blackcurrants added. Super smooth with a light body, tart berries and vibrant color
Abita Old Fashioned Pale Ale
Old Fashioned Pale Ale is inspired by the classic cocktail. It is brewed with malted barley and rye, and then aged in small batch bourbon barrels for eight weeks. After aging Abita adds all the elements of an Old Fashioned - fresh orange peel, maraschino cherries and aromatic bitters to the brew. The result is a smooth, barrel aged beer with all the flavors of a classic Old Fashioned

North meets South in our version of poutine. We start with fresh, hand-cut fries. Then we add Andouille sausage and house-made tomato creole cheese sauce, and top it off with two fried eggs.

The rich custard of soaked bread brings you to a place between French toast and bread pudding. Mango compote creates a bright contrast, and the bite of toasted nuts introduces a textural crunch. It all comes together when topped with velvety Chantilly cream
vegetarian
Lemon-Nut Pancakes with Southern Comfort Molasses
