Our Take: While somewhat out of the way (think far west Metairie) some locals think Bear’s has the best roast beef poboy in metro New Orleans. Bear’s doesn’t skimp on variety either – shrimp & pork sausage, alligator & pork sausage, and the Ferdie (roast beef, ham, and cheese) round out the usual offerings. Burgers and even salads round out a wide menu. Note: Bear’s is located next to Gennaro’s – a full service bar that offers Bear’s sandwiches. Bear’s does not offer alcoholic beverages.
