As I walked in the bartender yells at me, "What part of banned for life don't you understand....?" Fortunately, the PTSD keeping me on perpetual edge kicked in immediately and I responded, "Hey you're wearing my t-shirt you... give it back. And, how can I be banned from a place I've never been before?" The bartender and I then got down to the long history of Marty's PM (formally in Five Points), the legal and jurisdictional control of lifetime bans, and general 'long time no see, how you been?' chit chat. The place is situated in a nearly empty strip mall, which gives it a slightly post-apocalyptic vibe. It was nevertheless pretty crowded. They seem to be serving the same healthcare professionals/biker crowd that used to populate the 5-points version back in the day. I didn't try the food, but it looked pretty good. The prior version had one of the best grilled cheese sandwiches to be found. My only knock on the place would be the lack of draft beers. I toughed it out drinking Jack and Cokes. It's a little out of the way for me, but I suspect I'll be back sooner rather than later.

The first time we had the pizza it was really good. The second time it wasn't good at all. It completely lacked flavor.

We ended up doing both and taking most of our pizza home for later. Our bartender was sweet and came up with a cocktail for me since I was so undecided as to what I wanted. She basically made me a boozy cherry limeade! Even though it seemed to be pretty busy, it wasn't too loud despite the arcade area and full dining room. This was a super convenient stop while we were out and about, but I wouldn't be going back for the sole purpose of having a meal.

The patio out back has some nice tables as well as a stage for occasional events. I caught a 3 piece jazz band here and they were killing it! It's also got great coffee, (beans from June), and great pastries, (from Last Call), so you can be sure that if you stop in for your morning caffeine fix that you'll get top of the line goods across the board. I've tried a few things on the menu and so far it's been all hits and no misses. Aside from that, at night the bar opens up and they've got a well curated list of interesting cocktails that should satisfy anyone looking to get a few drinks and enjoy the evening. So this place kind of has it all. Coffee and cocktails, cozy vibes inside, a good backyard patio surrounded by trees, and a genuinely friendly and welcoming staff that seems to be doing a great job. Easiest 5 star in a while. Get down there.

I saw a tweet recently that said "if your beer costs more than $4, you are at a 'dive-themed' bar."…read moreBourbon Street Bar and Lounge is NOT 'dive-themed,' it is a dive. It's an interesting mix of people. Retired frat guys playing pool, usually an odd wedding party, a couple of resident characters in leotards. It's like a watering hole in the Safari, lots of different cats intermingling. It's fantastic. True to its name, it does remind me of New Orleans. The ominous folding table and chairs in the parking lot with ashtrays is hilarious. Truly a liminal space if you open your mind to that. Inside is warm and decorated with memorabilia/paraphernalia of bar nights past. We did karaoke with Connie. We had the premie baby (vodka or gin, on ice, in a giant pickle jar). You're not bar-hopping if you're coming here. This is your final destination of the night. Prepare for that. It was somehow near 3am when we left, and the room had not cleared out a bit.

But within an hour it got slammed with college age people. I signed up for karaoke right behind my friend and sat down to wait. I really liked that they had a little ticker on the screens that showed who was coming up next... Except it wasnt accurate at all. I watched as person after person got called up, out of order, and they sang 2 or even 3 times. The guy running the thing decided even though there were 20+ people in line to sing that he was gonna insert himself to sing multiple times, which is my BIGGEST pet peeve with karaoke. You are being paid to let people sing and you insert yourself? Anyways, one of my friends finally gets called up to sing. And halfway through her song, some drunk nepo baby decides its his song now. Walked up and physically pulled the mic out of her hands and took over singing the song. Security watched it happened. The guy running karaoke watched it happen. They did nothing. Her boyfriend and I had to threaten to remove him from the building to get him to give her the mic back. and then he did it again at the end of the song. I was there for 3 hours and never got called to sing. Every one of my friends were called up. and my name was forever at the "#2 in line to sing" for most of the night. To top it off, as I closed out, another drunk guy tried to snatch my credit card away from the bartender as she handed it to me. I had to reach out and grab it before he could. In my 36 years alive, Ive never been in a bar fight but it was close to happening TWICE at this place. I wont be back.

Sat at the bar and for the majority of the time i was the only person there. If this is a "brewery" why did they only have two of their own beers on tap? very strange. I noticed what looked like a board that used to list all their own beers on tap that was abandoned and now just a sad white board lists their two beers and a bunch of other standard beers you can get on tap anywhere. Supposedly they have a kitchen? i saw no menu, or kitchen hours, or anything about any food. Bartender only appeared to refill my glass then quickly disappeared into the back room. If you dont want beer they have a very sad hard liquor selection that looks on par with a college kids apartment. The kicker was when closing out on the ipad the tip amounts were defaulted to 25%, 35% or 45%! Very generous amounts for pouring a beer, i decided to leave my own amount for a tip.

I remember going to Marty's PM all the time when I was in my 20's after a shift. So I was shocked to see the banner one day when I was picking up some Chinese take-away for lunch. First of all let me tell you this is a Safe Space for LGBTQ people. Sarah, Leslie, and Austin are legends. The whole staff is so sweet and the people are really friendly. There's another really cute guy who tends bar and I am so bad with names it kills me. I popped in a few weeks after they opened and I'm now a weekly regular. Best of all, NO ONE UNDER 18 Allowed! So no kids running around. It's a dream come true. The bar has a great selection of canned and bottled beers with a Happy Hour that helps your wallet. A good selection of wine and liquor to. No draft as of yet, but ya don't need it. My Usual order is a IPA and a Shot of Fernet. But I can never leave without a Resting Peach Face Frozen Cocktail or a Bushwhacker. Ask for a Fernet Topper on you're Bushwhacker. I call it the Emmy Jane Special, no one else does XD. Trust me it works. I love the Egg Rolls and The Burgers. The Dutch boy is a fave, but the Big Mick is also delish. They have a lot of weekly events, Karaoke, Trivia, Live Music. Follow their Facebook for their yummy weekly specials.
