FAQ
Questions, answered
What's the vibe? Do I need to dress up?
Extremely casual — come as you are, straight off the lake. We're a casual place with upscale service: quality food without lakefront pricing.
Is it quiet?
Honestly, no — we're a little loud. That's the tradeoff for original 1880s wood. For a quiet, intimate dinner or white-tablecloth night, our sister restaurantsPat Gallagher's 527,Gallagher's Grill andGallagher's on Front Streetare the perfect place.
Can I bring my kids?
Please do — we're family friendly, with a kid's menu (tenders, shrimp, catfish strips, grilled cheese, burgers, pasta alfredo) and a room where a little noise fits right in.
Can I bring my dog?
Yes — on the downstairs courtyard patio only. There's a pet watering station, and full food and drink service outside.
Do you take reservations?
Yes — reserve through OpenTable any time, or call(985) 951-2173. For larger parties or the Hadden Cottage, calling is best.
Where do I park?
On-site parking at 2129 Lakeshore Drive, right by the front gate. If the lot's full on a busy night, there's street parking along Lakeshore.
