- Nicole CheramieNovember 27, 2018Outdoor courtyard spaces are coveted in NOLA, but often hard to find with public access. Relax in this bar's beautiful outdoor space, perfect for a low-key date, with regular food trucks out front.
Hudson SutlerJuly 20, 2017While the bar is slightly off the beaten path, your efforts are well rewarded with a private outdoor seating area often featuring live music. Do yourself a favor and order a Disco Lemonade... or 10. Read more

James CarrollOctober 22, 2018Pleasantly surprised with this place. Incredible mix drinks and chill bartenders. Loved their old fashion with their own Knob Creek bourbon.
rhea sunshineJune 29, 2012Good beers on tap, Disco Lemonade is refreshing, outside seating is very nice! Watch for popups the Hoof & Cleaver one was delicious!

Best bar in NOLA. Owners, bartenders and patrons all rock. Disco lemonade is a must for first comers!
ChrisFebruary 7, 2015This place is a good late night bar that has live music and outdoor seating. Try the Disco Lemonade or the Frozen Pimm's Cup.

Chris RMay 31, 2019All around great little speakeasy. The Mermaid lounge in the back is a must visit.
The bartenders are sweet, almost TOO sweet, but the frozen Irish coffees are NOT too sweet!
TomJuly 18, 2015Played gold cup soccer with sound. Worth checking out if there is a big soccer game.
Stephen KarnsMay 24, 2017Excellent outdoor seating with televisions. Mule Monday is awesome, $6 mules!
Kyle HebertDecember 16, 2013Try their spicy-bean back with a shot of Jameson. Their take on the more common pickle back is a kick.- Madison LeavelleAugust 27, 2014Disco Lemonade is the perfect hangover cure. Grab some grub from the food trucks outside.
ℋumorousAugust 27, 2012Any bar that has Van Morrison in the window is a must stop when in New Orleans.
Chris McLellanMay 23, 2013For a cool experience, ask for a scotch tasting from the bartender. You'll be amazed!
- Gambit New OrleansMay 22, 2013Stop in for some wine! The Rusty Nail offers half priced bottles of wine, Mon.-Fri. 4-7pm.
Shelley DuBoisMarch 17, 2012Really nice bartenders & awesome manhattans! Go here! Very chill and fun.
Disco lemonade on hot days. Enjoy the Brickyard on cool days. Tip well. Play roll-a-day hard.
Get the Disco Lemonade... Get 2 if you feel like pushing your luck... 3 if you feel like taking your in your own hands
Carla BenavidezMay 8, 2011plenty hot up in hurr so we stopped for a disco lemonade (vodka+sake+ frozen lemonade =yum)
sean rileyFebruary 17, 2012Sit on the patio. It's fantastic. Plus the band isn't that loud. $10 cover was a little much.
Jay DucoteAugust 6, 2010Shuffleboard is even better with cold beer. Drink some Louisiana brews! http://www.biteandbooze.com
This bar is pretty cool for watching college football. Unless Alabama is playing. Then it's overrun by a bunch of gumps wearing crimson.
If you're an Alabama fan, this is THE PLACE for game day! Roll Tide!
