“ This is a small bar on General Meyer in Algiers. I walked in on a Friday night October 28 to enter a Halloween contest because a friend was hanging out there and suggested we come. The atmosphere in this place was amazing and everyone in the place was very friendly. It kind of reminded me of walking into one of the better clubs on the Westbank back in the mid to late 80s. I would highly recommend stopping by here whenever you get the chance ”
“ Nice neighborhood bar. There is covered outdoor patio seating, bar seating, and some tables. There’s a good selection of liquors and the bartender pours appropriately. Also, they have Guiness on tap and pour it right. ”
“ Looks fantastic after the renovation. Had a private party in the back for a friend turning 40. Outside area for smokers. Pool tables and darts . . . Don't forget the drinks the bartenders are pouring. Good evening at J&K ”
“ If you are ever on the West Bank in NOLA.....you have to try this place. It has been there forever and my dad used to go there when he was stationed in NOLA while serving in the Marine Corp. and that was back in the 70's. Try their bloody marys. They are my fav! ”
“ Friendly, good service, fun crowd of locals and good sports coverage always going on, but the best is the variety of Draft .. always ice cold. Oops, let's not forget the patio,,and supporting our local Firemen. Yep I come here, it's like home here, no place like home.check it out. ”
“ Very nice neighborhood bar. Clean, good pool tables and sticks, darts, jukebox, many draft beers to choose from, reasonable prices, friendly bartenders. ”
“ Neighborhood bar and long time Algiers fixture. Lots of different beers on tap, a well stocked bar (just missing something bubbly - I'd love to see them add some prosecco or champagne to the menu), and a great little patio with TVs, fans, and misters for the hot weather. Touch Tunes jukebox is fun as well. ”
“ I finally made it over to J&K! I had heard so many good things about this bar. Katie is a wonderful bartender and sweetheart! It's a good neighborhood bar. ”
