bars

Well, Lafayette has great sports bars and we asked you via Facebook what are the best sports bars in Lafayette. Here are the top 5 sports bars in Lafayette, Louisiana!

For many years now, it has been legal for 18 to 20-year-olds to enter a bar. If one Louisiana state senator gets her wish, this will change soon.

When you go out for a few cold ones, are you a decent tipper? By the looks of this new survey, you probably aren't because apparently, Louisiana is one of the worst tipping states.

In prior years, establishments that served alcohol within the LCG-controlled jurisdiction were able to carry on with business as usual - a 2 AM closing time.

If you attended the LSU and Southern University football game last week, you already know of the nightmare it was to leave campus and even the city after the game.

The bar is re-opening their doors this weekend on June 10th and 11th.

We took to social media to ask Acadiana, "What is YOUR Favorite Cocktail?"

The locals will be the first to tell you, some of the best places to hang out for a drink and great conversation with friends is at Acadiana's most popular dive bars.

You're at a party or gathering and you've had enough talking, smiling, drinking, you're tired and just want to go home.

Starting this weekend, Tipitina's, Maple Leaf Bar and d.b.a. will not let you in just because you say you were vaccinated or tested negative for COVID-19, you'll need to prove it.

Louisiana continues to make progress as Governor John Bel Edwards announced he would be loosening the state's coronavirus restrictions.

COVID-19 safety guidelines remain firmly in place, and local ATC officials say they will be keeping a close eye on bars and restaurants to make certain it stays that way

The Louisiana Office of Alcohol and Tobacco Control sent out a press release today detailing an update as it pertains to the modified Phase 2 plan that Governor Edwards has put in place with COVID-19 cases rise across the state.

The state is now under a modified Phase 2 that went into effect today. These restrictions call for bars in parishes that exceed 5% positivity for two consecutive weeks to cease serving customers indoors.

Mayor LaToya Cantrell announced yesterday that other changes will include an increase in the number of people allowed at indoor gatherings from 50 to 100.

As more Parishes throughout Acadiana meet the state requirements for bars to reopen in Phase 3, Louisiana has updated and released guidelines to safely reopen.

Lafayette Mayor-President Josh Guillory has opted-in to reopen bars in Lafayette Parish.

These two parishes now join Jeff Davis as the only parishes in our region that are eligible to reopen bars under Phase Three guidelines.

Applications for those bar owners wanting to transition their establishments into restaurants are available online.

We're not really that surprised that violations are already happening.
