The Bayou is a "Certified Dive Bar" and one of the best gay bars in the city in part because its twice-a-night happy hour is "easy and cheap, like your ex." Specializing in Southern rowdiness, the hole-in-the-wall bar has good-looking shirtless bartenders, Mardi Gras beads and Cajun dishes. The first happy hour goes from 4 pm to 8 pm and the second 10:30 pm to 12:30 am with lots of loud music and craziness in between that will make you think you're partying in New Orleans.
