We adore the loft! Ron and Angie are the sweetest people! Our favorite bartender is miss “RED”! The place is always clean and inviting. The balcony overlooking the river and front street are a vibe! The bathroom is always clean (can only speak for the ladies lol. Sorry men…my husband hasn’t had any issues though!) I haven’t tasted everything on their menu but I can vouch for their dirty fries!!!! Them things are soooo good! They’re welcoming and very attentive to their customers. I recommend the loft to everyone we know .

Really enjoyed The Loft. Got there too late for food, but they did have pizza! Quite the vibe, very comfortable and chill atmosphere with a wide drink selection. They had good live music, not just “live music”. Next time you’re in Natchitoches, check this place out.

Our ladies group ate here after a Christmas tour. We didn’t really know what to expect but enjoyed our time there. The food was typical bar type food. It was good. The highlight was listening to Patrick sing. He was great! We really stayed longer than we intended to and are talking about going back to listen to him again. Benton Louisiana

Traveling on I49, we wanted to stop to eat but wanted something by the river. We found this great place with a bar, lounge with large scream TV for the football game, super friendly staff and some really awesome food. I highly recommend giving this place a try.

Down town historic Natchitoches. Very nice decor. Wait staff was friendly but very slow and they were not busy at the time. Shrimp and cheese grits were good. My favorite was the appetizer sampler. Good crab cake, fried oysters with spicy sauce, shrimp rumalade and traditional fried green tomatoes. ( I don’t care for tomatoes and they won’t let you substitute.) Menu needs major upgrade as it was just paper and downgrades the vibe.
With a few tweaks, would be awesome.

We were both pleasantly surprised as the word on the street was “bar food”. Well let me tell you. This was the BEST potato salad I’ve ever had. EVER. Plus the rib sliders were melt in your mouth and perfect smoke! When every where else was closed or had a 2 hour wait…We were very happy & lucky to find ourselves at The Landing.

First time being here and we had a blast. Comfy seating, plenty of TVs to watch games on, even one on the balcony. Standard bar and a wine bar, pool table, dance floor, darts, lots of lights. Only food we had was blackened alligator; it was good but a smaller portion than you’d get in New Orleans and I’m not sure what the sauce was with it, normally would be some kind of remoulade. All the same, definitely be back here!

Went back there this past weekend during the car show. Environment alone would keep us going back but the bartender Ashley is probably one of the friendliest bartenders we’ve encountered. We had a great time chatting, having our beverages and eventually ordered a combo pizza and double spicy wings. Both were great! Took a panorama pic while I was there to try and capture the whole place. Was pleasantly surprised they had non alcoholic options, Budweiser zero for example.

The service and the atmosphere was phenomenal however the food was a -0. The DJ & the soloist was the bomb but the food was awful and we had a party of 20. Great Vibe

Only giving 2 stars because our waitress was absolutely wonderful. Food is definitely not worth the price. Almost $14 for frozen mozzarella sticks. Blackened gator was good, but also not fitting for size portion with price. They use imitation crab for the crab cakes. Almost $150 bill for sub par food. Save your money and skip this place.

Great place out of the way. We had the gumbo and mini meat patties and they were excellent.
