About Rock 'N' Bowl

New Orleans’ flair for quirkiness is on full display at this combination music venue and bowling alley. While New Orleans is predominantly known for its jazz, this venue is known for highlighting the lively sounds of Zydeco – complete with accordions and washboards. Early zydeco was a blend of Louisiana French accordion music and Afro-Caribbean beats and sat at the crossroads of Creole, Cajun, gospel and the blues, yet has since evolved to include influences from several other genres. At Rock’n’Bowl, you can dance to the beats, knock over some pins and refuel with a bite to eat.
