Nope. You can only get wine and spirits at restaurants.Originally Posted by marketdawg
Just sounds ridiculous when you put it that way.

As best I remember, you can't buy wine or whiskey in Baton Rouge on Sundays either.
I haven't seen this place mentioned in this thread, but over in Simsboro Jr's has some pretty good steaks. I try to get over there ever now and then and get one.
Back in 1970 as a 16 year old, I could buy "wine (boones farm) or whiskey" in the afternoons on Sunday. Of cousrse, I was a very mature 16 year old.
Why don't people get beer Saturday, put it in the fridge, and drink it Sunday?
You could make that argument for any day of the week. This is a mostly Catholic state and more importantly, America. I should be able to buy beer whenever I want.
What if you work all day Saturday?

Also the fact that you have to leave Ruston to purchase a bottle of wine or liquor to take home (on any other day of the week) is just assinine.
As far as Sunday sales go, sometimes you just forget to plan ahead or sometimes you don't know that you are going to want wine/beer until Sunday. It is irritating when you realize there is no good reason that you are forbidden from getting what you want and someone would be willing to provide if it were not against city ordinances.

What is the purpose of prohibiting alcohol sales on Sunday vs other days?
Love me some Jr's. We eat there every Wednesday night after church. I never had anything I did not like there. Their grilled foods are very consistent because there are only 2 cooks that work the grill, Jr's sons.
I'll play along.:icon_wink: Google "Blue Laws". There was a time when the sabbath was observed more strictly.
I was in town this past weekend and the in-laws wanted to go to Route 33 for dinner on Saturday evening, does anyone have any idea why they are not open on Saturdays?
It must be something recent or temporary. We've eaten there on Sat. evenings before. I do know that they close fairly early but don't shut down when they say they close as long as customers are still coming in. It must have been dead for awhile, so they decided to shut down to save money. You might want to check to see if it's a temporary thing. Heck, I might want to because I like that place.
