Bourbon Blue

With its high ceilings, pretty terra-cotta walls and cool setting — a vintage stone canal house by the river — Bourbon Blue is sophisticated enough, but at the same time, with its live bands and drink specials, it's your basic party bar with kickass margaritas. That's why at 11:30 on weekends, you'll find a good-looking crowd that's graduated from sticky-floored beer joints but still wants to rock-'n'-roll. And Bourbon Blue's central location widens the pool of eligible talent.
