Madisonville has a special place in my heart. I grew up in Covington and was in the era when driving through Madisonville was considered the scenic route (especially if you caught the bridge). I still find myself driving around Madisonville from time to time, especially Water Street and Main Street. I can’t pass up an opportunity to enjoy the Tchefuncte River! Speaking of the river, The Anchor has a stunning view of it and it might be one of the most family-friendly restaurants in Louisiana. Let’s check it out:

The Anchor is a casual, family-friendly restaurant in Madisonville with beautiful views of the Tchefuncte River.

You can arrive by car or dock your boat in one of the slips.
The open-air deck is the perfect spot to grab some drinks with friends and watch the boats pass by.
