| Barcadia - New Orleans (Posted on 2/5/13 at 2:45 pm)
decided to walk down to Barcadia today for a Curbside burger. This is a really cool little place. If I lived nearby, I could see myself spending some time here. For those that do not know, its on T-Chop just south of Poydras (a block down T-Chop from Mothers). Very cool little building with a dozen or so arcade games in the main dining room, 2-3 large "garage doors" that open and close to move air, many local beers on tap, and curbside burgers. I did not go upstairs, but it appears to have an upstairs....I would assume more arcade games. I should have looked around to give a better review - but I didnt. Had a KGB Burger. Still one of my favorites. Salty bacon and a fried egg on a burger is money. Website is not updated, still says coming soon - but the kitchen is open! Barcadia New Orleans

No upstairs but there is a room behind the main room with video games... It has another bar and a few more games like air hockey and skee ball... They were closed because of plumbing problems... Guess they fixed them....

In general, what constitutes a chain? At what point does it change from a place with multiple locations to a chain? Is anything with more than one location a chain? I'm not trying to debate, just curious what the distinction is.

Chain stores are retail outlets that share a brand and central management, and usually have standardized business methods and practices. Before considered a chain, stores must meet a litmus test, it must have more than 10 units under the same brand and have a central headquarters, otherwise it offers franchise contracts or is publicly traded.

I didn't know there was an actual definition At any rate, it isn't really a NOLA original I do like the concept though Hopefully when they roll out the food it will be New Orleans inspired to give it more of a NOLA flare to it

I didn't know that either. And TBH it's from WikiPedia so take it with a Taceaux Loceaux sized grain of salt.

Are they going to have food other than the Curbside burgers? Oh and btw for anyone who hasn't been they have some good looking broads slinging drinks behind the bar.
