Maybe to drink, not to eat

by JonL45

This place must serve old seafood or something. I had mega-diarrhea for two days after eating here.

always a good time

by jimbo12

this is a great easy going place with tv's everywhere. friendly staff and beers are only 2.50. specials every day. only drawback is it crowded all the time.

  • Pros: cheap, fun
  • Cons: too crowded

Main Street's N'awlins-style college drinking fest, with cheap crabs.

by Contributor

In Short
Patrons might be surprised if they look up--the ceiling is covered with dollar bills. The owners say they were inspired by a New Orleans tradition in which a man without pockets signed his name to a few dollar bills and left them at a bar. The Bayou is almost always hopping (and not just for the dollars on the ceiling), with plenty of drink and food specials to keep the 20-something crowd coming back.

Wowee, this is the place!

by Johnycool234

This has gotta be one of the best places to hang out on Main Street. Why spend a fortune at other places when you can feel right at home at the Bayou. The staff is very friendly and makes everyone feel welcome and appreciated. Overall this is the best place to come with a bunch of your friends, whether its just to hand out, have a private party, watch a game or just grab a bite. Saturdays are the best. The only thing wrong is that one of the bartenders on Saturday, the guy they call Pit is a little annoying with his abundant amount of useless knowledge. But the other bartender Nick makes up for it with his humours charm.

Excitement galore

by pit430

One on my best experiences on main street. The food was excellent and service was prompt. The bartenders and waitress were easy to get along with and attended to my needs. I have going to the Bayou Bar & Grill for two years and my expereince is excellent. The drink specials and and food specials are the best in the city. Sunday are the best with the NFL ticket and great bartenders. There is an excellent bartender they call Pit who knows everything about sports. He is a joy to listen to during the Eagles games with is knowledge. Thank you, Bayou

  • Pros: bartenders, cheap drinks & food, service

Mardi Gras on Main Street

by utah

the Bayou is a good drinking bar on Main Street. it has a Mardi Gras type of theme with dollar bills all over the walls and posters from past Mardi Gras. Just a good place to drink with friends
