Rock 'N' Bowl, New Orleans

Rock 'N' Bowl isn't just for folks who think bowling is the ultimate sport of kings (and queens); this place is a haven for good times! With not one, but two bars, mouthwatering burgers that'll make your taste buds do the cha-cha, a Ping-Pong table for those intense paddle battles, and a dance floor that's seen more moves than a salsa convention.

Unveiled to the world in 1989, Rock 'N' Bowl's ambiance is like stepping into a time machine set to "down-home dance hall" or "gigantic barn party." The live music shows here feel less like a serious concert and more like a lively hoedown.

Their stage is a hotbed of entertainment, boasting an array of theme nights, and the zydeco nights are the real cat's pajamas! Zydeco, that unique Creole rock straight from the heart of southern Louisiana, is known for its accordion and washboard magic that'll have you tappin' your feet and clappin' your hands in no time.
