Poor House Bistro

“Indoor seating inside of a historic house and lots of outdoor seating too.”

Excellent food and great live Blues band. We ordered the Shrimp Po Boy and the jambalaya special. Both were delicious. We were only in town for the day so we can’t go back to eat but would highly recommend this Bistro.

Poor House was an interesting little spot to grab a bite. Had a dive bar kind of feel. The staff were pretty friendly, even if the whole operation was a little rough around the edges. The food was alright. I wasn’t blown away, but it wasn’t bad either. I could see it being an ideal spot if you are out late, and want something to wash down with a beer or something. They also have the occasional live music outside which I could picture myself enjoying if it was the type of music I am into.

Great food. The fish was so flavorful and crispy. Really good clam chowder in large bowl. Coleslaw delightful. Wonderful creole music. Outdoor seating. Good shade.

I’m no expert on New Orleans and Cajun food but I like the food here! I personally had The Poor House which comes with ham and roast beef. Great of you like a ’meaty’ sandwich. Be prepared this thing will fall apart all over you. But messy be good too! I shared some of the crawfish pasta with someone. Creamy and yummy. AMA this is the best way to eat crawfish cuz otherwise they’re too hard to peel! Shrimp po boy was good but I prefer grilled instead of this mattered and deep fried way. And the fries were hella top salty. They actually got my order wings which I didn’t realize till the food
