There is seating on the first level and second level. The bar is on the second level. We enjoyed haning out here and there is a very good selection of beer. It is also dog friendly as there were several dogs there as well. It is also right across the street from the lake so you can look on the lake while hanging out there.

It wasn't crowded at all, but this *was* the night before Thanksgiving, so that made sense. That said, there was a decent group of regulars that seemed to love the place. And we can see why. As the other reviewer mentioned, this bar caters to an older crowd (baby boomers with a sprinkling of Gen X), which isn't to say that younger people wouldn't be welcomed ... but the shenanigans that sometimes comes with being younger would be out of place here. Don, Jared and the Konspiracy was the band last night, and they did a fine job of playing classic rock standards that kept the dance floor busy. The food at the back (jambalaya) was a really nice touch, and the bartender did a wonderful job of keeping everyone topped up with good cheer. We're glad to have discovered this locals hangout and we'll definitely be back.

My favorite "hole in the wall"…read more I'm someone who loves good music and good people. Both can always be found at backstreet! As a former bartender, I am not a fan of college crowd bars or bars where the owner is wasted and causing drama. Im not a fan of drama, period. I like an older crowd that you can have fun with, drink with, dance with, etc. The owner is awesome, as are the regulars. When the dancing gets going, they salt the floor! Cap'n & Gayle do karaoke on Friday nights and it's the absolute best in town!!! if you're into karaoke you have to check it out! Not to mention, Friday nights, band nights, game nights and special events they have food cooked. I know you're thinking "yea, ok bar food". No. I'm talking home-cooked crock-pot food. I will bet that the chicken & dumplings are the best 99.9% of people that try them have EVER had. For LSU football they've got a projector screen and the game going on loud. Commercial breaks they put on 98.1 or the fight song, etc. Definitely my favorite place to watch the game. Long review but there's so much greatness about this place I know I'm forgetting to mention a million things. Bartenders are wonderful (especially Leslie!) bands are great, karaoke is great, drinks are great! Food is phenomenal as are the people you'll meet!

8 of us had a reservation here with seating on the outdoor deck. THere is a large parking lot and…read morewe were seated on time. The waiter was really nice and took drink orders very timely. We had two small kids with us and they ordered chocalate milk. They came with it in 20 ounce cups or so. A different waiter accidentally spilled the entire cup on a 7 year old. Totally drenched her hair and dress. So bad that they had to take her home to change(fortunately only 5 min away) It was so much liquid it took 3 staff to clean it all up. The service and food was good. Unfortunately, the customer service/recovery was not done here. They did not even comp her milk or meal... Seriously- they had to go home and change it was so bad and you cant comp a kids meal. I think it was unfortunate that they did not even try to make up for it. The manager should have stepped in and tried to fix this. Defintely impacted the feeling toward the restaurant

This is a typical, small, old English/Irish type pub that has been there a very long time (don't remember specific history). The bartender, a native of the area, was pleasant and accommodating. It wasn't hot when we were there, but would be a great place for a break from the heat when visiting. If I recall, the ferry runs every 15-30 minutes, so it is an easy, quick transfer from one place to thenithe

My husband and I had eaten here a few years ago but had been wanting to go back with our brunch…read morecrew. We were heading home from our Avery Island weekend and were able to stop for Sunday Brunch! Although we arrived at about 10:30, they were already full and we were looking at a 30 minute wait so we decided to order drinks and appetizers and sit outside while we waited. We had an Express ya'self Martini, boudin queso, biscuits and this week's special French toast - Butterfinger Fench toast all of which were delicious! We decided not to get any entrees as we were full and often do that at brunch but had to try the mouth watering Turtle Caramel cheesecake which was superb! My one negative is that I found most of the staff not very friendly and welcoming. It was just like "well this is my job". We go to a lot of different restaurants to try their brunches and this was probably the least liked staff so far. Even the bartenders gave me the impression of "come on and stop asking questions". For us, we like to have staff who are excited about sharing their restaurant and happy to see us. Over all though, I would go back and recommend this if you are ever in Houma to try it out!
