EVERY DAY: 10 A.M. - ‘TIL

A neighborhood joint tucked deep in the Bywater near Poland Avenue, BJ’s offers the makings for a real-deal New Orleans night out. From Monday night red beans blues acts to the dapper, venerable elder statesman of the joint, Little Freddie King, the lineup is always sure to please. On nights when live music isn’t around, BJ’s is also home to one of the city’s funkiest jukeboxes.
