Beverage Program Score
The editorial take
Bill's Bar & Burger runs a drinks program that leans into crowd-pleasing classics and frozen drinks. The Calcasieu Cocktails section lists named options like the Havana Rum Punch, Pink Cadillac Margarita, and Strawberry Daiquiri, alongside lemonades and a Bloody Mary. Beer comes in 16oz Big Boy pours and 12oz cans, with mix-and-match buckets of six. Shakes—classic and specialty—round out the nonalcoholic side.
- What should I order?
- Start with the Havana Rum Punch, built on Bacardí Havana Club Añejo Classico and Bacardí Spiced with pineapple, orange, lime, and grenadine. For a tequila option, the Pink Cadillac Margarita uses Patrón Silver, Cointreau, and Chambord. Beer drinkers can mix a bucket of six from the 16oz Big Boy and 12oz can list.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Groups ordering buckets of beer, guests who want a frozen Daiquiri or margarita, and anyone looking for a nonalcoholic shake rather than a soda. The cocktail list is built for people who prefer recognizable classics over obscure builds.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- The combination of a branded-spirit cocktail list, 16oz Big Boy beers with mix-and-match bucket service, and a shake menu that includes both classic flavors and specialty builds like Cookies & Dream and Not So Thin Mint.
