There are plenty of seating options for couples or larger groups, and the sofas were sturdy, comfortable, and clean.

I believe they offer happy hour all day on Sundays, and the happy hour menu includes several great drink options. I would definitely come back and grab a seat at the bar.

From the planning to execution, I highly recommend this venue for a small/medium size gathering. The space is unique and beautiful. I hired a decorator who provided a back drop and small decor throughout the venue but it really doesn't require much. Prior to the event I communicated with Ms. Julie who was always helpful and prompt. The only available catering was Cecilia and they did NOT disappoint. Guests absolutely loved the food. Our bartender was also great for the event. He worked solo but he did a good job with keeping up with request. I would definitely book another event with The River Room if needed.

For Baton Rouge standards, The River Room is one of the more unique downtown venues to grab a…read moredrink. It's been around for close to a dozen years, specializing in a number of different whiskey cocktails. The vibe screams date night, but it serves as a great place to lounge and people watch. There are sofas, loveseats, and a lot of casual lounging seating options that makes it feel more like someone's home than a nightlife establishment. The staff seems extremely down to earth, and the bar has chatty bartenders that are quick to recommend all sorts of drinks. Scotch and whiskey cocktails are their specialty, but they will make anything as long as they carry it. The place also seems like an interesting venue for group activities and buyouts. It feels like an ideal private space, having two floors means there are some custom options worth exploring. There's also an outdoor patio and the crowds are never too overwhelming.

There are several large flat-screen TV's usually tuned to football or baseball, so it's a great place to catch the game. Thursday and Saturday nights also have karaoke, which is my favorite. Adam is the regular karaoke dj - he's great! The bartenders and management are all friendly and know what they're doing. It's a bar filled with regulars and they know almost everyone by name. Being a bar I guess I should cover the drinks - they have all the standard domestics, several on draft, a few Louisiana beers and a few imports. Decent selection of liquors for mixed drinks, very small wine selection. I think most folk could get the drink they're looking for as long as you're not expecting a craft taproom or fancy whiskey bar. It's a straight bar - so no food. But if you're hungry there's a Pizza Hut and Greek and Chinese restaurants all within 100 yards. You can call in your order, have it delivered to the Tiger or just walk over and pick it up to bring back. Just ask your bartender - they have the menus and phone numbers! There's not much to complain about, but to justify not giving that last star, I'd say it's sometimes too crowded, especially Saturdays. Ideally they'd have about twice the square footage and another 15' or more of bar. Things are a little awkward now since EBR banned smoking in bars too - there's not a well-planned option for smokers like a deck with a bar so there's a lot of in and out the front door for smokers. The smoke free barroom is a nice development but also an inconvenience to the many smoking customers. I notice the Yelp profile for here is quite old. Ownership changed after the Great Flood of 2016 and I think the bar was pretty much gutted and rebuilt, so the profile really needs to be updated.

Not the absolute best BBQ ever, but certainly worth trying and it will satisfy a craving. Brisket and ribs are a bit dry but have a good flavor. Both are very tender (ribs fall off the bone). Chicken is very good and moist and the leg quarter is a decent size. Overall, generous portions of everything. "Fried potatoes" on the menu means shoestring french fries. Pretty good, but those words made me think skillet fries. No big deal. Potato salad and coleslaw are both good, but the coleslaw is dry. It has a bit of vinegar dressing that is good, but not quite enough. Three stars - I'll be back, but it's not my favorite BBQ place in town (even among the few choices available).
