The curated selection of classic cocktails are a great value at $6 and include New Orleans favorites like the Sazerac and the Pimm’s Cup, as well as bar snacks like steak tartare and duck liver pate. Read more

“It’s modern but it also honors the city’s amazing cocktail culture,” says writer Jessica Voelker of this off-the-beaten-path craft cocktail bar from Neal Bodenheimer, Kirk Estopinal & Matthew Kohnke. Read more

It's a pain to get out here without a car, but trust me: it's worth the cabfare there and back. Best cocktail bar in town: inventive recipes, new flavors, all perfectly crafted.

A frequent gathering spot for both students and professors at Tulane School of Architecture on Friday afternoons. Their cocktails are both inventive and delicious.
Emilio CMarch 14, 2016
Some of the best cocktails I've ever had. I usually just order whisky on the rocks or an Old Fashioned, but here I wanted to venture out on the menu.

Want a well-crafted cocktail that won't break the budget? Happy hour specials on classic cocktails run until 7 pm.

Try the "Chink in the Armour" -- a gin based cocktail with Lillet and bitters. Delicious. You can find the recipe in the book "Speakeasy Cocktails" created for iPads. http://bit.ly/foursq_cocktails
Men's Health MagSeptember 16, 2014
It's a civilized uptown bar serving knockout cocktails like The Mexican Bus Ride, made with tequila, mezcal, aromatized wine, and tinctures.
Greg SchulerFebruary 3, 2017
A little out of the way, but my favorite cocktail bar in NOLA. If Ryan is working tell him I say hi!
Tammy GordonSeptember 22, 2012
Bartender Ryan served up a perfect Manhattan, encouraged me to try Cynar and gave great restaurant recs (even for an NYC transplant!) Stop by and say hi!

This is where mixologist Jim Meehan (PDT) and the makers of Bittermens Bitters go for cocktails when they're in New Orleans. Go off menu and let them craft you something special.

One of the best cocktail bars in New Orleans, and definitely the best one in the Uptown area.
ChrisDecember 5, 2015
Excellent, upscale cocktail bar. Try their original concoctions or a classic cocktail.
Thinka New OrleansOctober 27, 2010
Make your drink a challenge. Thinka ordered a drink made with tequila and based on your (the bartender's) favorite Bowie song. Kirk mixed us up a "Ziggy Stardust." So pretty and tasty. So Bowie. Read more

Fantastic happy hour. Get top drawer cocktails at half price? Sure!
USA TODAYDecember 6, 2010
In a city famous for celebrating, Cure is constantly dreaming up rogue cocktails. Try the Gunshop Fizz, which uses 2 ounces of bitters, where many drinks might call for two dashes. Read more
