Dive bar with live music, cheap drinks, and free red beans and rice
"Vaughan’s is a joy, guaranteed to deliver cheap drinks, good music, and the kind of conviviality that you hope for when stumbling into a dive bar. If you’re lucky there will be a pot of delicious red beans and rice in the back, which customers are welcome to scoop for free. Don’t miss brass-shaking music from Cory Henry and the Treme Funktet every Thursday at 11." - Eater Staff
"It’s cash only at Vaughan’s, where drinks are potent and cheap (not fancy) and start flowing at noon daily. The owners often feed the crowd with red beans and rice on Mondays. The jukebox is legendary, same for Saints games, cheered on by a slice of Who Dat Nation dressed to the nines in black and gold. Say hello to the resident chihuahua El Chapo." - Beth D’Addono

"Elvis Costello makes a cameo in an episode at the Bywater dive and music venue to check out Kermit Ruffins (who plays himself on various episodes of the show)." - Missy Frederick
