Parkway Bakery & Tavern
Parkway Bakery & Tavern Review
Former contractor Jay Nix resurrected more than just a dilapidated building when he reopened Parkway: he also brought back to life a dormant community spirit. You can find neighbors and regulars from other parts of the city sinking into Parkway's roast beef and grilled-ham po'boys; some simply wander in for a hot dog and beer at the bar, and to take in the New Orleans nostalgia decorating the walls. For dessert, choose from a selection of rum cake, bread pudding, and banana pudding—all made fresh daily. As it's near the fairgrounds, Parkway jumps during Jazz Fest.
