DBC Bar & Grill

Darn them and their awesome daiquiris! Been back multiple times since my last review. Drinks are always on point. Customer service is not. You never know what you’re going to get depending on the bartender. That’s the only thing that stops me from giving five stars.

Me and my coworkers came over after work. (We work one block away) It was a steady crowd mostly regulars. Only one person working the bar, which she did a great job juggling between the bar customers and drive thru. But she could have had some help. Especially on a FRIDAY EVENING. If you have a problem with smoke you make not like it too much. It was a bit smokey with everyone lighten it up at once. I had a Rum Punch and a small daiquiri. By the time I drove home, took a shower and laid down the room was spinning!!! SO with that being said… Had a great time!

Love the drive thru and the sizes. Mardi Gras Mash is enough to put you on your a$$. But great drinks

Tonight I had a hankering for a daiquiri. I could have gone to New Orleans Original or Daiquiri and Creams but I made the drive from Kenner because I just love their daiquiris here. I get up to the window, order my drink, and hand the young lady my money, to which she comes back and says «it’s $ 7.00» When I asked her why she said «because it’s Mardi Gras time (a parade had ended earlier).» So it’s over a dollar more because it’s Mardi Gras time? I’ve never heard of this. I told the girl that is not very fair to their customers, besides I have driven 25 minutes to get there in traffic and now I’m being overcharged because they had a parade earlier. I’ve never seen this at any other shop outside of the quarter. She said she wasn’t the owner so she couldn’t do anything about it. I’ve been coming here for years and never heard of this. I don’t know if this is just something they incorporated to make sure they get tipped or what, but it rubbed me the wrong way and doesn’t make me want to return.

This place was quite a stumble upon. Friendly service, great food, had the Thursday special and it was the best meal I have had since my move to the Big Easy on Sunday. Crazy clean. Lots of gaming, golden tee, darts, ping pong, jukebox, video poker. Good livin’.

Huge, relatively inexpensive daiquiris with a vast menu of flavors. I had the Chocolate Banana and it was fantastic. I only visited the Drive Thru, but received quick and friendly service. I’ll be back!

I’ve never been inside but I have been through the drive thru a couple of times and am consistently happy. The service is pretty good. I’ve had the Banana Banshee and am not a huge fan. It didn’t seem to have much alcohol in it. My girlfriend, however, thought it was great. As for me, I’ll stick with good ‘ol Strawberry as it’s really tasty and boozy. The gallon is a sweet deal as it’s only $ 17. Extra shot for $ 1 is a must.

Why have I never gone here before? Ping pong and alcohol with chili cheese fries? Merica! Seriously though drive through daiquiri that actually are delicious and not bad priced. The girl at the drive through window wasn’t half bad either. Lol

On my third trip to NOLA, I had to partake in the drive-​through daiquiri experience.
The Large is massive and was pretty damn strong (although we got an extra shot too. for only $ 1!). It cost something like $ 7 bucks for a Large — very affordable.
I had a strawberry banana which was pretty good but not amazing. The alcohol kind of overpowered the flavor. My friend’s Banana Banshee however… was AWESOME. So I definitely recommend that flavor.
Like many people that visit NOLA, we stayed in the French Quarter. Getting a cab here and back seemed very inefficient. So we asked the cab driver to stop here en route to the French Quarter from the airport! It’s actually on the way so it didn’t cost us much extra. Definitely a great way to start a vacation — highly recommended.

This place really surprised me because I’m used to the underwhelming Fat Tuesday daiquiri shops around Nola. I like the taste of DBC daiquiris better (love banana split), there are more selections, and slightly cheaper.
Great place to watch football on Sunday too! I’m a packer fan and the staff was very welcoming every time I went by making sure at least one tv was on the packer game. Additionally, they offer all you can eat pot luck style food on gameday Sunday for only $ 5!

Just left dbc bartenders were more worried about smoking and looking at there phone. Normally when Brandi and west are there it’s nice, but the two working tonight… no good they didn’t check on us once.

I really don’t know how to write a review for this place. All I can say is… Brandy is the coolest bartender there. Tip her well! I’ll write a real review one day when I can actually leave this place sober. Don’t worry, its a good thing.

Had the Tropicalcolada, and it was GREAT!!! They have way more selections than other local Daq shops.

So… I’m a Tavern on Vets steak fan, but hubby and I decided to try the steak here. Wednesday’s the steak is cheaper at $ 15. We were thoroughly surprised. The steak was delicious. They don’t use Genes like Tavern, but they do put real garlic butter on top. Those garlic pieces make this steak. It’s also a bigger steak, but has more fat pieces. So thumbs up for the steak. Don’t like that it’s $ 15 only on Wed. It’s $ 18 or $ 19 the other days. Tavern still wins for best steak at best price.
I also had the chili cheese tots and those had real cheese! I hate the processed cheese some places use. They were great too. The daquiris are strong and it’s only $ 1 to add a shot, which I did. :) only needed 1 drink all night.
They also have a couch to lounge and sit and chat or watch tv or eat like your at home. Thought that was cool. And they have this game where you try to fit the ring around the hook. You’ll have to see it. Kept is pretty entertained. They have ping pong table and gaming systems. Cool place to hang.

Just had another burger on the Quest to find the best Burger in the Nola area
So the wait wasn’t bad just longer than expected for a burger & fries when the bar is near empty, I will say it was cooked to perfection! Bun was tostadas just right it looked great coming out and I’m sure that fat patty was hand made. French Fries here are the great steak fries also cooked just right, but on the skimpy side compared to others only skimpier fries were at N.O. Hamburger & PoBoy (I’ll never go back there). I just wish it had more flavor possible better seasoning or quality of meat. But this is now top 3 in walking distance (there’s about 12 places under a mile I can get a burger)
I will 100% return
Staff — fast to order (drinks) friendly
Price — on point (Food) Cheap (Daqs)
Taste — Burger Awesome — Daqs Awesome
Time– Drinks — (Fast) Food — (Med-​Slow)

Personally… Best Drive Thru Daq Bar in Town!
I’ve never stepped foot in DBC Bar and Grill so I’ve never actually patronized the Bar or the Grill so these 5 stars are solely for the drive thru (until otherwise noted).
This will be the review that puts me involuntarily into AA, but I’ve been going to DBC for my drive-​thru daq for at least 3 years now. I wish more places had drive thrus, i.e. convenience stores, sushi restaurants… jump on board people.
Drive-​thrus are the devil’s quickie because, more times than not, what your ordering off the drive-​thru menu isn’t what the doctor ordered. I always get a large White Russian with an extra shot. Calories be damned. The size always makes me go, «wo, I’ll never finish that.» 5 hours later, I’m thinking, «where’d it go?» Out of the daq shops I’ve visited, I’ve liked their White Russian best. I can’t really explain why. Maybe it’s not too sweet or not too boozy, but I like it.
Extra points, once I saw that they had a discount for teachers on daiquiris during the week. 1. Genius marketing 2. Giving back to those who give so much.
Other reasons this drive-​thru daq is spectacular:
1. It’s on the less busy part of Vets
2. A large White Russian is great for pool lounging, boating, tailgating, p’rading, porch chillin’, picnicking, shall I go on?
3. Even if there’s a line, it moves pretty quickly just remember to press the service button when you get to the window if no one is at the window or you’ll feel like a dumb dumb just chillin’ there.
Tips: Now that I’ve told you of the joys of this drive-​thru and I’ll no doubt be the car behind you at some point… Always have your ID and money ready. This is a drive-​thru, not park ‘n chill. Make note of service button above. AND don’t put your straw in your drink at the window… Open containers are illegal, and if you get pulled over right in front of the drive-​thru, and I’m behind you… Well, Hell hath no fury like a thirsty Moe. It’s tempting, just wait till your lounging. All that daq ain’t going anywhere, I promise.
Daq on, my friends.

This is a nice hangout spot. The strong drinks are great, food not so much. Plenty of sitting space, darts, big screen tv, and great music.

Yay!

This was one of the highlights of my visit to NOLA. Drive thru Daiquiri Bar!!! This place is AWESOME!!!
You would NEVER EVER see one of these in Los Angeles!
I tried the Island Citrus Daiquiri and also the Strawberry Banana one! Both were yummy and STRONG!!!
I can’t wait to visit my friends again in NOLA and have many daiquiri’s

Large daiquiri for under $ 6 on Mon or Wed (can’t remember which)! Guess I’ll have to go back for more «research» you know! Not to mention this is a DRIVE-​THRU daiquiri shop, where you can get virtually any daiquiri or mixed drink TO GO! Gotta love New Orleans!!! My banana banchee daiquiri was so banana-​y and strong. Loved it. Going back for more research… are y’all glad I’m willing to take one for the Unilocaling Team??? ;-)

Saw Daiquiri Bay Café on Drinking Made Easy and when I was recently in LA, had to try out the place…
How cool: Drive up to the window, order alcohol, and drive away. What a concept! Would highly recommend anyone coming here just for the experience alone. Fantastic! And the drinks were really, really good too. Great flavors.

Ummm what can you say about a Drive Thru Bar!!!
This is the greatest idea since sliced bread. My friends and I, who all are from states that would never allow this to happen, all came here in the car just to say we tried it.
All the Daiquiris were fantastic. I got the Island Citrus and it was amazing. Drinks were strong and cold (good cause its so humid in NOLA). You can even get a Jack & Coke in a to go cup!
The drinks were strong enough without getting an extra shot. This place puts Fat Tuesdays in Vegas to shame. Better yet they have happy hour and the prices ranged from 5 bucks to 7 bucks at the most!
If you’ve never ordered your booze to go, come here and try it, you wont be disapointed!

Are you kidding me, alcohol daiquiri drive thru? SERIOUS? That would NEVER exist in Cali! They say they leave the top of the straw wrapper on so technically they’re not promoting drinking and driving. A supposed loop hole in the system.
As I sat in this college style bar, I noticed that the drive thru got all the action. Car after car pulled up. Inside the place it was pretty dead. A few people on the video pokers, drunk couples trying to play the music box, empty ping pong and dart boards sit awaiting usage. There are plenty of flat screens all over the interior that you can’t miss your favorite team’s highlight.
Plenty of fruity of daiquiris to try. The banana flavored one was surprisingly the best one for me. Not a fan of the egg nog and the Pina Colada was okay.
I’m still tripping out on the alcohol drive thru service (I think it’s the norm around these parts).
