The Country Club New Orleans Gets A Facelift In The Bywater

NEW ORLEANS – To celebrate 40 years of service in New Orleans, The Country Club, a “bohemian retreat” nestled in the historic Bywater neighborhood, unveiled extensive upgrades following a year-long renovation process.

         Among the changes at the popular venue that offers “recreational facilities and grounds that provide a unique environment for relaxation, fun and socialization,” is a complete revamp of the food and wine selections, spearheaded by Executive Chef Chris Barbato, formerly Chef de Cuisine at Commander’s Palace. To complement the refined menu offerings, the interior designers of locally-owned Ferrand Design celebrated The Country Club’s unique and lively culture by creating a sophisticated and colorful environment, club reps said

         “We are excited to reintroduce The Country Club as a premier destination for locals and visitors to come together over good food, drinks and fun,” said Bert McComas, general manager of The Country Club. “We paid special attention during the renovation to ensure we kept everything people know and love about the Club, and complemented that with fresh, new upgrades to ensure we offer our customers a true oasis that they can’t find anywhere else in the city.”

         Chef Barbato and his culinary team expertly curated a locally-inspired menu that speaks to Italian-French and Creole-Southern heritages, including everything from chateaubriand, hand rolled pasta and braised short ribs, to jumbo sea scallops, stone ground grits and Louisiana speckled trout, Club reps said. To enhance the menu, guests can choose from a selection of award-winning wines from the carefully curated new wine cellar and specialty crafted cocktails.

         The club’s Saturday Drag Brunch will still be available.
