It's BWW but with "Cajun" food. Some of their items are pretty good, beer selection is good.

Our group meets there regularly for our get togethers and I never thought the food was that great, but they let us have the side room to ourselves and that is a redeeming factor.

Menu lacks a bit, i like a lot of their apps and sometimes get as meals. Beer could be cheaper but I’ve never not enjoyed a walkons.

I love when a place has shiner on draft. Not common where I live. But at walk ons it always tastes sour. Besides that I enjoy it

Walk-On’s has taken on the old Ralph & Kacoos and Red Lobster crowds


It’s the battle Frontier is now fighting (no pun intended) since Spirit threw in the towel

I’ve been to a couple on work trips out of convenience. It’s your typical sports bar with bar food. Not bad, not great.

It’s on par with other sports bars as far as pricing but everything these days is expensive esp eating out. I’d never go on my own dime as it’s just not worth it when you can make a much better meal at home.

Ribeye sliders are good. Decent burgers.

Walk On's is a blah experience - decorated with TV's, bad acoustics, sub-par food.

"Some items served at this establishment may contain imported crawfish or shrimp." - really?!?

when it was local it was actually pretty good and prices were reasonable

once it went corporate the menus went down, prices went up, quality was hit or miss depending on locations

sounds like they are not doing well these days and the end is probably near for the franchise

the local ones will probably remain open but it's probably run its course like most chains these days

food prices aren't helping these places either as they try and remain profitable

Used to be decent. Now it is straight garbage. It's closing down locations because the food sucks and if it's anything like the one in Prairieville, the beer sucks. I say that because they don't clean the lines properly and their draft beer tastes like shite, no matter what you order.

It's decent for what it is. However they're likely just one venture capitalist purchase away from being squeezed for profit, and processed into nothingness.

It's like our other Louisiana food magnate, Todd Graves and Raising Canes. Say what you will, they've remained steady and opposed to a ton of outside intervention. All it takes is to let the VC snakes in the door and the next thing you know, it's the next Zaxbys.

How much are you billing Walk On's for research and consulting?

My drinking days are over with but in my hey day nothing was better than an NFL Sunday at the OG Burbank walkons. Post up at the outside bar with all the games on, bullshite with buddies about fantasy, then get in a buzzed game of golden tee. Good times. The original is still the best.

I've never had a bad meal. It's not gourmet but good for what ii is, which is a sports bar.

Won’t go back to the Zachary LA one.

Town Center is down to once a year, hoping for signs of life but there’s nobody home

The OG has been fine.
Though at one time it was excellent.
