Exploring Topgolf Baton Rouge
Topgolf Baton Rouge has quickly become one of the most popular entertainment destinations in Louisiana's capital city. Located just off Interstate 10, this three-level golf driving range, restaurant, and event venue brings a unique twist to the traditional game of golf.
The Topgolf Experience
Unlike a regular driving range, Topgolf uses microchipped golf balls that track each shot's distance and accuracy. Players hit from one of 102 climate-controlled hitting bays outfitted with games that score points for hitting targets on a 215-yard outfield.
With many different games to choose from, Topgolf appeals to golfers of all skill levels. Players can compete in their own hitting bay, with other groups on the same level, or against the entire facility using Topgolf's interactive technology.
Food and Drinks
While Topgolf serves up fun on the tee lines, its chef-driven menu does the same in the restaurant area. Guests can enjoy everything from shareable appetizers and sandwiches to entrees and specialty cocktails.
Some patron favorites include the Topgolf burger, Nashville hot chicken sandwich, chips and guacamole, and the Louisiana Love cocktail with Deep Eddy vodka, blue curacao, sweet and sour mix, with a Tabasco spray around the rim.
Events and Entertainment
In addition to walk-ins, Topgolf hosts events like corporate outings, bachelor/bachelorette parties, birthday celebrations and more in party rooms seating up to 150 people. Each party room provides direct access to a hitting bay.
For larger events, groups can rent out parts of Topgolf or the entire venue, which can accommodate around 1,500 guests. With event planning specialists, customizable packages, catering menus and audiovisual equipment available, Topgolf does all the heavy lifting to organize one-of-a-kind events.
