Bogie’s Bar

Absolutely love this place! I love how the inside is a fun live crowd where I always have fun while the outside patio area is much more laid back with the seating! I’ve been after every football game and whenever I go out any other day. The frozen screwdrivers at the best too!

Was extremely disappointed in one of the bouncers named Sully. He witnessed a guy purposefully spill a beer on two girls and dragged me out of the bar by my collar for calling him a coward for not doing anything about it. Really hope going forward they train their bouncers to not use physical force unless necessary. He could have easily asked me to leave instead of resorting to violence first.

Fucking terrible place to go. The bouncers, who are 18… If that didn’t let me in because their drunk coworker who after inappropriately touched my brother kicked him out and would not consider letting us in on my sister graduation night. Absolutely ridiculous when we paid the cover and did nothing wrong but stick up for my brothers safety. Fuck this bar and fuck the underage chauvinistic incompetent door men

Unassuming from the outside, but one would be wise to not assume.
Bogies is a college sanctuary. As a former regular of the establishment, I can tell you that Bogies does not only embody the lifestyle of a LSU Tiger, it embodies the lifestyle of a young Louisianian.
The Bogies experience begins with the entrance line. At this moment in time, you find yourself surrounded by a slew of inebriated college co-​eds just itching to get inside.
Once you are inside, you see it… You instantly understand why people come here.
You see the C-​shaped bar that serves stout and premium beverages at college town prices. If this could bring a smile to your face, then what you see next should bring a joker’s grin. What you see next is the dance floor which is always packed, forming a hierarchy of drunk girls with the most intoxicated being featured on top of the stage.
In this area you will see anything and everything, and yet you will be apart of anything and everything!
Lastly, if the night calls for a smoke or a break from the university wasteland, you can lounge about the spacious patio. Once you’re out here, do yourself a favor and take a moment to look up at the starry galaxy and appreciate the very pavement your foot has rested upon. For if you are in the prime of your life, you, my friend, are in the right place.

Avoided during college and thought it was a frat bar, however it’s bearable and perfect walking distance if you are staying near by.
After football games, you’ll find cheerleaders (my brother) and football players. Had an excellent time after Olé Miss win!

Went here last night for the first time (Friday night). I was lucky enough to squeeze my Mini Cooper into the last remaining parking spot. I got there around 11pm and the place was full. $ 10 cover (annoying, but I had to pay up since I was meeting friends there). Typically I avoid covers at all costs unless there’s a band there or something justifying it. $ 10 was totally too much to pay to get in this kind of a bar. As I walked in the front doors, I passed the Rules board, and noticed one said «No visible tattoos». WHAT?! Are you kidding me? I don’t have any tattoos, but this is freaking 2010 here! Not the 1950’s! As soon as I saw that sign, I knew what I was getting myself into. Also would like to mention that the bouncer studied my ID for about 2 mins before letting me in. Dude, I’m almost 25. Give me a break, I know I have an out of state ID, but this is a college town and my ID has 3 freaking holograms on it. If it was a fake, it’d be the best fake ever.
Inside, the crowd was mostly girls dressed to the 9’s with high heels, short skirts, tons of make-​up on, and they were all hanging on guys in collared shirts (many of them popped collars I must add). Seriously, I don’t think I saw one guy in there who wasn’t wearing a collared shirt. A bartender even had a Titleist hat on. Where am I?!? A country club on Martha’s Vineyard?
But only the clientele was New England Country Club, because the bar was completely dirty dive. Black walls, dirty concrete floor, neon beer signs, dirty old flags hanging on the wall. It actually looked quite cool. There’s a big outdoor section in the back which I can see myself hanging out at in the autumn months when it cools down a little. The beer is cheap and they have a decent selection of bottles to chose from. The DJ was alright, but he really should mix in some more obscure stuff. I felt like I was listening to top 40 radio. If it weren’t for the obnoxious crowd, I might actually like this place though. I’ll give it another shot. Maybe I need to be wasted to truly appreciate (and tolerate) this place.

Grill?
I spent the first few college years boycotting this place as I’m not the sorority girl type. Then I made some friends who raved about it and decided to put my judgmental ways aside… really good decision!
Yes, it is a frat-​tastic bar but it’s a d@mn good time! You will likely have a hard time parking, wait in line to get in, have a drink spilled on you, and leave a sweaty mess … but you won’t be disappointed.
Go, order a ‘lunchbox’, and thank me later.

I have spent many-​a-​night at Bogie’s Bar & (where is the) Grill. In fact most of my money in college was invested in Bogie’s…
Bogie’s is your typical college bar — cheap drinks and loud music. It’s usually loaded with the Greek crowd, but some nights there is a good mix. Ladies crowd the bar on Thursday and Saturday nights in order to get in without having to pay the pesky cover charge. Old School night (Fridays during football season) is great for those who want to relive their LSU glory days, but it gets extremely packed extremely fast.
If you are looking to jump right in the LSU scene, Bogie’s is the place to be!
