Anyone have ideas?

We have one friend landing at 8:15PM tonight and another one landing at 10:30PM. We're coming from/staying in BR tonight.

Looking for a good place to squat for an hour or two between flights within striking distance (~10-15 minutes) of the airport and without dealing with NOLA parking.

EDIT: Thanks FDB! Looks like Lagers is about 15-20 minutes away, I think that will work, $2 off local pitchers tonight.

If you are looking for a nice bar there is not much in the immediate vicinity. I would go to Casa Garcia on Vets.

I wouldn't drink at any bar near the airport. It really isn't in a place where one would find nice bars.

Maybe IN the airport.

This. I don't think Kenner has the type of establishment you're looking for.

Laketown Bar and Grill on Williams and Vintage is pretty close and has decent enough drinks.

ETA: And no smoking in there too, so that's a plus IMO.

I would go to Harbor Seafood and sit at the bar. Pound oysters and abitas.

This.
The only other bar area I can think of close by would be the bar inside Brick Oven restaurant.
I haven't been to the Esplanade mall area in a while. Would one of the restaurants around there be worth it for a bar visit?

Tavern on Vets is right there but it's your standard Jeff Parish bar.

Hold up brah

Tavern is pretty legit. It's a cut above Stepbrothers and such.

There is a Zea's and a Copeland's in the Esplanade Mall parking lot. Both have nice bars.

Voodoo BBQ is two minutes from the airport. They have a decent beer selection, and alright food.

This, but substitute Abitas for something good.

I'm betting Abita is probably the extent of Harbor Seafood's "craft beer" selection.
