A Bar Some individuals at work invited me to the Pastime Restaurant and Lounge one day for lunch. I didn’t really “want” to go there, but I wound up going anyway. My perception of this business from what I had heard of it was correct. This is more of a bar atmosphere than a regular restaurant and that one time that I went there, the building was rather dark and dank. I don’t remember much about the food in the place, because of that. My entire perception what I wanted to get away from there as fast as I possible. Because of ... read more

tbe best place in town I have been going to the pastime for 20 plus years they have by far the best pizza bar none. The manager Jamey, is the best always polite and always spoken to me by name. The owner of the pastime did the right thing in hiring him. Also I had a sample of the boudin pizza its wonderful. Keep up the great work. PROS: The best pizza and seafood in town CONS: Need more locations

I have never been treated so rudely. – I placed an online order at their sister restuarant at 1:20pm. I called nearly two hours later to ask where my food was, and the order had gotten lost. I understand that happens, but the manager tells me that he can't bring me the food until after 5pm, because his driver leaves between lunch and dinner. That's 4 HOURS after I ordered LUNCH. He told me if I couldnt' wait that I could have my money back, and told him that was unacceptable and to do the right thing and bring me my food, be... read more

Love the Po Boy!!! – I went to the new one on Drucilla and had the best Shrimp Po Boy. The bread was the best part. Nice and cripsy on the outside and a little chewy on the inside. Perfection!!!! The female who took my take out order was very pleasant and made sure she got it right; she did!!! Can't wait to take my mom when she comes for a visit.

Something was responsible for the Pastime being the Oldest Restaurant in Baton Rouge and being listed in Pizza Today as one of the Top 100 Independent Restaurants in the United States. – The BEST Pizzas and Poboys we have ever eaten.
