IT’S ALL IN THE DETAILS

At first glance, BLDG 5 is exactly what it claims to be. The fifth building on a quiet property, nestled beneath the Perkins Road Overpass.

Pay us a visit, however, and you’ll quickly learn that it is so much more than a building. Inside its walls lie a continuous story, with beginnings that predate our restaurant’s existence.

Our front façade, interior reclaimed walls and protected outdoor greenery have remained untouched to create a space where the past intermingles with nature and welcomes rustic details.

Thoughtfully designed spaces including a bar patio with accordion doors that let the fresh air in, a vibrant market full of treasures, a private dining room, an outdoor deck under beautiful trees and twinkly lights, and the High 5 rooftop bar which offers unique views of the artsy and eclectic Baton Rouge community create a combined sense of openness and intimacy.

• Beyond the environment, each piece housed in every nook and cranny also possesses a story of its own. The worn brown leather chairs;
• long tables that have made the trek from German beer gardens; the cast-iron railing from a Tennessee antique yard; leather samples saved from the furniture store that owners Misti and Brumby once operated;

a metal barn door track from Misti’s father’s barn. Not to mention each and every fork, spoon and knife, which was hand-selected from a variety of estate sales, antique stores and vintage shows over the years.

Marrying old world charm with modern touches, the work of local artists and builders are featured throughout the space, humbly displaying the spirit of Baton Rouge’s creative community.

Like the floor mural, wall textures and signage by TJ Black, the table handcrafted from salvaged wood and art installations over the bar by Benjamin Bullins, and many more.
