About

About Walk-On's Sports Bistreaux

Walk-On's Sports Bistreaux was founded in 2003 by Brandon Landry and Jack Warner, two former LSU walk-on basketball players, in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The name is a nod to their college athletic experience — earning a spot on a team without a scholarship. From day one, the concept married Louisiana's rich culinary tradition with the communal energy of a sports bar, resulting in a menu that features hand-battered fried alligator, crawfish étouffée, and boudin alongside flat screens, cold beer, and wall-to-wall game coverage.

The brand gained national attention when NFL quarterback Drew Brees became a co-owner, helping fuel rapid expansion across the South and into new markets. Today Walk-On's operates roughly 70 locations across more than a dozen states, with a franchise model that has attracted investors drawn to the unique Cajun-sports-bar niche. The chain's signature dishes — including its Bayou Pasta, Voodoo Shrimp & Grits, and the towering Louisiana Platter — consistently distinguish it from cookie-cutter bar menus.

Walk-On's has earned accolades including recognition on Entrepreneur magazine's Franchise 500 list. The brand leans into Louisiana culture at every turn, from its Mardi Gras Salmon to its Zydeco Salad, creating an atmosphere that feels authentically Southern even when the nearest bayou is a thousand miles away.
