Library Riot - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Wow. Just wow. This bar has the best cocktails and service for the price and it’s just an incredible vibe with the best bartenders I’ve ever encountered in my life. Thank you for existing, Library Riot. I truly appreciate everything that you are. Nothing but love.

Always the best service, atmosphere is a one for sure especially if you like chill bars. There recent new food they have came out with is freaking good always recommend this bar.

I had the Anna Karinina drink and had great chat with strangers and it's always open day or night

great chill hangout! bartenders and drinks are awesome! 10/10

A very nice calm bar to sit and enjoy some conversation on a weekday

Like the atmosphere, enjoyed the service extremely

So sad what happened. Looking forward to the reopening

It's a simple small-ish absolutely charming bar. Occupancy was around 10-20 people at its most active. Bartender and DJ work very hard to provide quick and responsive service with no issues or gripes with service. There is 2 pool tables and some nice lights with a well lit stage for karaoke on Tuesdays. I highly recommend the place for people looking to hang out with friends without the hassle of very large bars and over crowding. Easily one of my favorite bars.

Clean, easy parking, great staff, great service, really good drinks

Very well-lit. Used to bars being kinda dim. Music wasnt my type. Patrons weren't very friendly. Felt very uncomfortable, like I didn't belong. But besides that, it was very clean with video poker machines and pool tables. Even had a nice outdoor smoking area.

I love my people that work at this establishment. Sooo we have friends that partake and those that don’t. Everyone is welcome. A good place to unwind after a stressful night or day at work.

Great atmosphere, very clean, and great bartenders that are very knowledgeable and can make everything from fancy cocktails to basic ones and they also have a great selection of draft beer!

Great cocktails, great atmosphere, great bartenders, and it’s cleannn

Went here with my wife after date night dinner. We knew nothing about it. Bartender was very friendly and it was super clean. There wast much of a crowd when we were there but it was starting to get busier. Nice smokers patio out back. Would go again.

The service there was AMAZING! The bartenders there were super nice and very tentative to the customers. The drink Daisy Mae was delicious. By far my favorite drink there! And surprisingly the bathrooms were SUPER clean. Most places, the bathrooms are not even remotely clean and smell, but theirs was clean and smelled nice!

Reason for a least 2 stars is that the drinks are good when they are actually served to you. But my reason for it being so low is the bartender I had a problem with. They bartender asked to kiss my wife with me standing next to her. My wife informed the bartender that it was a no go and I was standing next to her. I as well was not okay with it. Bartender said she wouldn't tell her wife. Sure it might have been in all fun and games until she blatantly ignored us when we went back to get drinks. She asked us twice what we would like to order and then took someone else's order as well. Each time our drinks were never made. Tried to get her attention in between and was looked over and took other people's order. I finally told her to just forget about it and to close us out. We won't be back.

Love this bar to come and have a drink or two after work. Used to work third shift and it was perfect for coming and relaxing with fellow shift workers. Always have live music and comedy! Definitely a must visit for a good time in LC

Visited early Friday, not very busy, pretty cool scenery and a good selection of drinks with some pretty cool names.

This place is great, they have something going on everyday except Sunday, and have happy hour from 10 am to 6pm. Best service and best Old Fashioned in the Lake Charles Area.

Omg! This place is incredible, theyre open everyday besides Sunday, but happy hour is 10am to 6pm everyday. The inside is so nice and all drinks are served in glasses! Try their Irish Coffee!

Nice bar great bartender and love the setting and the mood. Great drinks. Even though I have same one everywhere I go. Lololol

This place is awesome Love the chill environment. The bartenders are really great and friendly. Good drink options. Love the pool tables and the live music. Definitely recommend. We will definitely be coming back even from Dallas where we are from Weill come back just for this place.

This is the best bar! Jamie the bartender took such good care of us, very accommodating. Thank you so much for the hospitality.

First time going but it was a great place with good drinks and a fun atmosphere.

10/10 best bartenders and drinks in Lake Charles!👌🏻 Their menu is fantastic from classic traditional coctails to new age creativity. If you're looking for a good drink and a good time definitely stop in.

One of the best old fashioned drinks in town.

The place to go in Lake Charles. They really take care of you. They even have a vending machine for snacks. 💯 recommend

Best bar in lake Charles. The bartenders are so amazing and nice. The drinks are the best. And it’s nonsmoking which makes it even better

My favorite place to go after a hard day! I absolutely love being able to walk into FRESH air and clean environment. The bartenders are extremely knowledgeable, always have great recommendations, and the variety of liquors, beers, and mixers is unbeatable. Highly recommend!!

Great environment and fun atmosphere, helpful bartenders and great customers!

Library has a wonderful environment, a fun crowd, and an exciting variety of events. Games, drink, and fun for everyone of age of course. Shoutout to Jamie for creating a great atmosphere and safe place.

Library Riot is the place to go. All the bartenders are super friendly and always offer to help when I can’t decide what I want. Their specialty cocktails are the best! The Persephone and Chocolate Dahl-ia are my favorite! Not to mention they have a points system for their regulars. Win you a hoodie definitely the most comfortable hoodie ever. Between the pool tables and darts Library also hosts several events through the year. Check it out

Had a great time at library riot, great environment and variety of events going on. People are super friendly with super helpful bartenders! Thanks Jamie for a great time!!!

Like the ppl and the atmosphere, but the concept throws me off. They should have a drunk library where you get drunk and check out a book that would be pretty cool, but there is not a single book in the place so it's quite confusing.

The bartender was super busy, but very personable and still made you feel like you were the only customer

Nice clean place to chill and have a drink… great staff.. friendly and personable

Great atmosphere! Highly recommended for day drinking.

Great atmosphere and drinks! Very chill bar. Highly recommend the blueberry Moscow Mule.
