Interference is a Mandeville dive bar…read more I am on a quest to go to new bars. Normally this quest takes place in New Orleans, but last night it brought me to Interference. I pass this bar nearly every day and have always wondered how it was, but never stopped in. I was a tad overdressed since I was coming from La Provence, but I didn't care. The bar is pretty well lit for a dive. They could probably have turned out 3/4 of the lights to make it more divey. There was a pool table and a very long shuffleboard table. Shuffleboard in bars is an excellent concept. I never had been to a bar in Nola with shuffleboard, but this is the second Northshore bar with a table that I know of. The bar is very long and lined with bar stools. Above the bar there were four TVs all tuned to sports. The area next to the shuffleboard table has around 10 or so tables and chairs which was a nice place to sit and drink. There is also an area for a band, but there wasn't a show last night. The crowd was mixed. I was the best dressed, but it ran the gamut from young tattooed service industry folks to old dudes wearing LSU gear. The bartender was young, attractive and friendly. I ordered poorly (Fancy Lawnmower-nasty), but they did have a decent selection of other drafts (maybe 4-5). There was a Guinness draft sign, but I did not confirm that they had an actual draft. In summary, interference is a sports themed dive. It was too bright, but I'll be back.

I saw the rowdy "kid" play area (and could hear them) I get the reviews complaining, however it really is a lack of parenting issue, not the restaurant. The signature drinks, once being a "western sunset" , menu says 10$ in a maybe 6 ounce plastic cup (smallest cocktail I've seen at a restaurant) ended up being 12$ each on the bill. That is why I'm deducting a star, it was 20% higher for each tiny drink than expected. Bartender was very nice woman. I would return here for the wonderful view and tasty burger. I wouldn't order a dinky drink again.

You also get to choose from a variety of sides. They give you a generous portion of the sides as well. The views of the water are pretty, and if you have young kids, there is a big playground right next to the dining area! This is a well thought out restaurant with fun amenities for the whole family. I highly recommend.

We ordered another bottle of wine, the most expensive, along with 3 more appetizers. The appetizers came out a little quicker. It took us 30 minutes for the check and to get the card back. It's a Friday, there is a cover band and it got pretty crowded. My problem is, there were 2 people serving and one of the servers, our server, is now bartending! There were 2 other people when we got there, who I assumed were the owners. 2 people can not handle a Friday night crowd on their own. Service was sloooooow. Atmosphere and food were very good. I actually felt bad for the servers. Shame on the management!

The Castine Center is a unique place. Located inside Pelican Park, it serves as the administrative…read moreoffices for the park as well as a multi purpose facility available for rent. I've been there for gun shows, fundraisers, school functions, and most importantly, the recreational league team draft. Northshore residents who live in Recreation District 1 pay property taxes to fund the park, the center and the improvements to the area. Being able to see where those dollars go actually makes me happy to pay those taxes every year. The Castine Center can be rented in sections or as a whole. Depending on the type of event it can be super fancy or super casual. There is a large parking area out front that can accommodate pretty large crowds. During the team drafts for recreational sports we have the place all to ourselves. Even though I've been there for many different events, I really enjoy the team drafts. We have the place all to ourselves as we sit around picking teams and laughing at the super competitive coaches trying to relive their youth. Most of us are there to help teach the kids and have a good time, but some of those people are serious as if it's the NFL draft. If you're looking to book an event, or have any business with the park, check out The Castine Center.

The building is actually located in the back of a really big park. There's a sign that you follow and you drive down a winding road and there you are. The venue itself is nice- there is plenty of parking and the room is really big with a stage and enough space so that you don't feel cramped. The staff that was working was good at picking things up when needed and keeping things organized. I had a good time at the event that I attended here and I would recommend this spot if you are looking to host a party.
