The Lazy River: your choice of scotch on the rocks. Plenty of lounge seating throughout the space, giving it the feel of a comfortable and classy living room. Tuesday-Saturday and 5 p.m.-midnight on Sunday. The River Room is at 222 Laurel St. and is open 4 p.m.-2 a.m. Possible additions to The River Room’s services include a limited food menu and availability for private events. Watts says it will mimic the style indoors, complete with a lot of green space, nice furniture and low lighting. Hughes and Watts are working on an outside patio behind the building. The Cry Me A River cocktail ( we’re sensing a naming trend!) features jalapeño tequila, agave nectar, lime juice and triple sec. “I think we have truly transformed this space.” The Whiskey River cocktail includes Buffalo Trace Bourbon, mint, lemon and simple syrup. “We’ve really exceeded our expectations,” Watts says. Watts says the feedback on everything from the drink selection to the renovations has been incredible. The River Room won’t feature live music or DJs, but it does have something to make any music fan happy-a vintage turntable with 200 vinyl records to choose from. “We wanted to create a place where you can sit down and visit with your friends and not have to raise your voice.” “There’s an array of places with the ‘club’ atmosphere,” he says. Though he doesn’t like the word “upscale,” Watts says that’s the void he and Hughes noticed downtown. Watts says he and Hughes wanted to create a different feel, something he couldn’t find in Baton Rouge. The interior space features comfy lounge seating areas and wood floors.

Devoid of tables and chairs, the bar produces a laid-back, quiet vibe, boasting comfy lounge chairs and loveseats.
