Homecooked meals are the best, but you don’t always have time to go to the store and come home and make a big dinner. For those times when you’re craving a home-cooked meal but lack the time to make it yourself, there’s one little spot over in Harahan that’s worth seeking out. The Red Wagon Grocery has some of the best plate lunches near New Orleans, and after one bite you might just stop cooking altogether and just eat here every day.
Tucked away in an unassuming little building over in Harahan, Red Wagon Grocery is one of those places only locals know about… until now.

No-frills, all flavor is the name of the game at this casual little joint.

For old-school plate lunches, Red Wagon is king. Traditional home-cooked plate lunches are offered daily, and each day is something different.

From hearty pot roast with mashed potatoes to BBQ chicken, you’ll find yourself wanting to lick the plate, these dishes are that good.

If you’d rather go with a po’boy, you better come hungry. They offer more than 20 different po’boys, and each one is over-stuffed and piled sky-high with your favorite toppings.

Their large po’boy could feed a small army. So if you and about 8-10 of your closest friends want to feast on one of their famous po’boys, be sure to grab a stack of napkins!
