Best & Cool Bars in Hahnville

"If you’re off to a slower start or you’re in New Orleans for the weekend, Brunch at Commander’s Palace is unmissable. Located in the Garden District among the houses and mansions of the first Americans who settled the city in the early 19th century, the upper floors of the restaurant offers some clues to its life before it was a world-famous, James Beard award-winning eatery. (Reservations highly recommended!)"

You walk in through a kind of narrow walkway, where you can't tell if you are still outside or inside (it's actually an air-conditioned courtyard). When you finally make your way to the back, you are immersed in a beach aura with tons of people dancing on what they claim is the largest dance floor on Bourbon."
