Walk On's moving into old Mugshots space in Towne Center

Walk-On's Bistreaux & Bar has announced plans to open a new location at Towne Center in the space previously occupied by Mugshots Grill & Bar, which closed in early November. The latest Walk-On's—which will be the fifth location for the sports bar and restaurant chain overall and its third in Baton Rouge—will feature a slightly new design concept, with an outdoor beer garden, more than 80 TVs, and custom table beer taps that allow guests to serve themselves. Walk-On's co-founder Brandon Landry says the 8,500-square-foot space in Towne Center is a desirable location for several reasons: It fits with the restaurant's target demographic, it is easily accessible from all over the city and also there are no other sports bar/restaurants in the area. "We are thrilled about the opportunity to expand our brand and open a new location that truly fits our concept and our vision for Walk-On's," says Landry. "We believe the Towne Center location will help continue the growth of our brand in Baton Rouge." Walk-On's has contracted with Arkel Constructors and Holden Architects to renovate the space and is planning to open in the spring. Walk-On's—which operates under the Last In Concepts brand along with Happy's Irish Pub, Schlittz & Giggles and The Roux House—currently has restaurants on Burbank Drive and Coursey Boulevard in Baton Rouge, as well as one each in Lafayette and New Orleans.

Amazing that BR can support 3 Walk On's

I think this is the fourth sports bar to occupy that location in the ten years or so that Towne Center has been open. Could it be that the demographics are just not there to support a sports bar?

Great another place I will never go to. Shitty overpriced food is correct

Everything that has ever opened up in that spot has failed. Champp's and Mugshots both.

Shame. Ah well, I only went to Mugshots once, so it's not like I'm missing out on anything by not going to Walkons now.

I like the Walk On's in New Orleans.. It's a decent place to have a beer and watch the game. Champs' food was awful and I never tried Mugshots. These two it seems, got blown away by the plethora of hamburger joints that are currently taking over BR. Hopefully they'll break the jinx of the location and offer a location similar to New Orleans.

Cool, 80 TV's and a beer garden isn't going to make up for the fact that it's still a fricking Walk-ons.

I'll never understand this attraction to mediocrity, the food is horrible.
