Vaughan's Lounge, New Orleans, Louisiana Restaurant Details

Food:

"There's just something about" this "laid-back" Bywater bastion that makes "dodging potholes and poor parking worthwhile" and many maintain it's "seeing Kermit Ruffins" on Thursdays – though insiders advise you "call ahead" since the Treme trumpeter doesn't "perform as often as in the past"; the "excellent service", "enthusiastic" crowd and "homey", neighborhood feel make some smitten surveyors say if they didn't have to, they'd "never leave."

Food:

Classic bar with unbeatable character.

Food:

Great brass band drinks strong, music fantastic, found family here.

Food:

One of the best neighborhood bars!!! What's not to like? Hang with friends, have a few drinks even a little food and just RELAX, CHILL, CHILAX or whatever you want to call it. It's difficult to believe that anyone would be able to complain. You should know when you see Vaughan's if you want to go in; it's a tourist bar and nobody wants it to be.

So for the Negative Nelly's out there...if you don't like laid back, neighborhood bars don't go.

Food:

Loved this place! Perfect little spot off the beaten path for us to stumble upon after dinner -- jukebox, great vibe, and fantastic bartender!

Food:

A Bywater dive. We stayed in the Bywater four days by they never had live music. Went once inside for drinks. An alright dive, that's all I got to say
