In the dry south (no booze), they're like the bars of the South. People drive from counties around to hit the catfish house on a Friday or Saturday night. Everyone congregates there and sees their friends. When I visited my relatives in S. Arkansas growing up, we'd drive over an hour (2 counties away) on Friday night to hit the catfish house.

I'd love to find one of those.
