Totally worth the Uber ride into the Bywater. My favorite wine bar/store/eatery/cheese plate/live music/backyard.

Very close to the house, Rock'N'Bowl is unlike any bowling lanes I've been to before. Some of our greatest musicians played there when it was a hole in the wall alley. Since moving to a new location, it's just down the street from the house and a great place to here local Zydeco music on Thursdays as well as get some two stepping lessons. Good food, a full bar, always a good show and well maintained lanes. Go for bowling or just to dance.
