Bars near Elmwood

“great neighborhood bar fun place to. hang out owners are cool!“

“I wanna start by saying that I was so excited that the Mediterranean restaurant opened up near us. I live in River Ridge and we love Mediterranean food. I went to Byblos and everything was clean, the staff was amazingly friendly. Their homemade bread was to die for. The only thing I have an issue with, is their menu. They say there’s vegetarian platters however the falafel‘s are cooked in with other meat. Which definitely makes it not vegetarian at all. You cannot cook vegetarian food in with meat. It doesn’t make sense. So unfortunately there’s many things that we think we can eat there that we cat. But I will say the things that I Did eat, were spectacular. Their soups, bean dips, hummus and their pasta dishes with vegetables. They were out of this world delicious. I would give this restaurant 4 1/2 stars only because of the discrepancy with their vegetarian food. I would be willing to even buy them a fire for separate use for falafel’s lol. Anyways definitely check out this amazing restaurant! I am going back today:)“

“Worst service in my life !! I ordered two burgers and waitress brought only one .. she was trying to convince me that I ordered only one and that kitchen was already close and couldn't make another one. Manager came and literally laugh in my face saying that he believes his waitress... awful awful awful experience!!!“

“A warm and friendly place for drinks and food. Great Irish coffee & Cajun eggnog! There’s a cute miniature street trolley that runs around the top of the room, to boot.“

“The hotel is charming, the food is great with generous portions, the carousel bar is fun and the hotel staff are amazing! Special shout out to Nolan, Nicholas, Jorge, and Sanoid ( may have missed spelled. so sorry!).I would definitely stay there again!“

“We were blown away on our first visit this morning!! Ryan is a talented mixologist in the bar creating beautiful, delicious and truly unique drinks. Our server Louis was incredibly charming and attentive, giving us excellent menu choices —as it was a hard decision. Every dish was a work of art—both in presentation and flavor. The whole experience was top-notch, and we can’t wait to come back!“

“I will always be grateful to this place. I used to work in the French Quarter and my shift would end at 3am 4am and 5am this was my safe place to go sit inside and sometimes have an Irish Coffee which is delicious by the way. They made sure I was safely in a cab or an Uber.❤️“

“Extensive Market Knowledge:** Suzan Mchugh extensive market knowledge positions her as a resourceful source for understanding global economic trends. Investors benefit from insights that go beyond the immediate investment landscape, providing a broader perspective.“

“Cozy ambience with a unique, delicious drink menu. They also offer their kitchen to local food businesses, and the Asian fusion one there when I went was phenomenal. Donavin makes a wonderful drink called “Thank You for Being a Friend” with Louisiana run, almond, passionfruit, and smoky amaro – must try! I was in town for the Home + Garden Show, and Barrel Proof was the perfect unwind!“

“Fabulous frozen Irish Coffee and other drinks, great bartenders, chill atmosphere. Great local bar!!!“

“Great unique cocktails, relaxed atmosphere and knowledgeable staff.“

“Amazing bar, amazing roast beef po-boys. Never miss their annual St. Patrick’s block parties. There’s usually two. For 2025, Not positive if it’s on Thursday, March the 13 or Friday the 14th, but for sure on Monday the 17th, 2025. Perhaps Admin can make a list??“

“My favorite bar in New Orleans! Amazing staff with great service, always friendly and ready for conversation. Queer/trans-friendly. Quirky weird shit playing on the TVs. Usually late night food trucks from local vendors, including awesome yakamein, a New Orleans classic.“

“Amazing spot with a stellar remodel. Megan and Nikki are the best bartenders! Came on band night, and Rock N’ Soul was on fire! Daiquiris were awesome, and the new Harry Potter Butterbeer flavor is a game-changer. Highly recommend checking it out!“

“There is no place like the saddle bar in or around Nola. It’s always a blast when I go there.“

“Stopped infor the first time yesterday and couldn't believe what I have been missing! I had the BEST Bloody Mary I've had in years, and the frozen concoction they were serving tasted like heaven. We will definitely be making this a regular stop.“

“Fun place to drink while in NOLA.“

“One of my favorite bars in Nola. The good kind of divey, a list of Boilermakers, and you can order from sidecar next door (some of the best raw oysters in Nola, and also their full menu), they'll deliver it right to your seat at the bar.“

“My mom and I had an incredible stay at the Bourbon Orleans Hotel—a true gem in the heart of the French Quarter. The hotel is stunning in its historic charm, beautifully maintained, and thick in the character you come to New Orleans to experience. Its location could not have been more convenient—everything we wanted to see and do was within easy walking distance. The staff was outstanding from start to finish. Check-in and check-out were seamless, and when we had a small issue with the toilet, it was resolved quickly and kindly. Every detail was taken care of—even some we didn’t know we needed. A special thank you to David out front who went above and beyond to serve us. My mom is handicapped, and he personally managed the delivery and return of her electric wheelchair rental with patience and care. His kindness and attention meant so much to us. This hotel met every need and then some. Five stars—10/10 recommend to anyone visiting New Orleans. We’ll absolutely be back!“

“Have been a Chart Room patron for many years. It's pretty much a plain ol' bar with great juke box and veteran bartenders serving typically strong and inexpensive drinks. About half locals, half out-of-town visitors, most of the out-of-towners being frequent NOLA visitors. At one time I suspected that a few of the regular characters were sent over by Central Casting, but have been going there long enough to now know they're genuine. A recent ownership change, but based on my last visit, no discernible (to me) change.“

“Awesome jazz and funk music, no cover Fridays“

“I went into this bar at about 1:30 a.m. because they had a good sounding band playing covers of classic rock and it looked interesting. I had two double bourbons and a Sazerac and I really don't remember the rest. I may or may not have been roofied, but fair chance I just had too many drinks.“

“we were just passing by and needed a bite... sweet tea, fried pickles, roast beef poor boys, fries... good price, tasty, great environment, staff were good at putting up with us. highly recommend.“

“Parkway will ALWAYS be a favorite for me and my family. We absolutely love their poboy’s. This place is #1 in our opinion ❤️“

“Oysters and pita/crab dip were delicious! Service was a little rough. My husband got his oysters before I got my meal- he had that and his drink finished before I received my food. We tried to be patient because they were somewhat busy, but watched our server take off her apron and leave before ever coming back to our table after drop off. We had 2 other waiters and what looked like management walk by several times, and even though I tried to get their attention, never looked our way or stopped. Finally made eye contact with a gal working closer to the front who came over and was very sweet, apologizing as our waitress had just quit. She brought out my food that'd been sitting there for quite a while, so the muffalettas weren't great, coleslaw warm. She never came back or reassigned someone to us, no one checked on us for drink refills, etc. Had to flag her down to place another food and drink order, again because no one else was helping us. After that, zero service, no one stopped at our table to check on us, and nothing 'taken care of' for the mishap. We came at a time where we were able to see the end of one band and start of a new- both fantastic, so that was good. Would recommend based on food and music, maybe not so much service.“

“Had to check out this spot based on previous reviews...it was crowded when we entered and very lively. Very welcoming and friendly atmosphere. The bartender was prompt and very attentive. She gave excellent suggestions. Very reasonably priced!“

“Pete Scherer was my great uncle. I remember when I was a little girl my great grandma (Pete's sister, Irene) and my nanny (Eileen) used to take me to the bar to see Uncle Pete every Saturday after dancing school. It really is great to see that the place he loved so much is still open. ❤“

“I live close by and have passed this place so many times on the way to work but never had the time to stop in until today cos I wanted a fun place to go to celebrate my birthday and I've never been one for the maddening crowd that goes along with the vibe that Bourbon St. has. This place is absolutely a great little gem for those who just want to relax and have a drink. The bartender is a complete sweetheart and so friendly, the drinks are very affordable AND strong and I very much enjoyed celebrating my birthday there! It's kind of like the New Orleans version of Cheers LOL I just hope at some point they will have karaoke on the weekends but I will definitely be frequenting there more often from now on.“

“DIVINE! I had such a good time! Had a few cocktails and snacks while chilling out and resting tired feet after touring the AMAZING WWII Museum! I came up at 4:30 and stayed past 8:00 to get pictures of the fabulous sunset from the outdoor terrace. The only thing that took away from an otherwise perfect experience was a bunch of noisy unattended little rug rats running around, screeching like Banshees and disrupting adulat at a place kids should not even be allowed in! It's a wine and cocktail bar, not ChuckieCheeses! Ugh! I do not understand parents who so rudely disrupt a place and time for adult who do not want such obnoxious interrupting! It really is thoughtless and rude! I do wish the wait staff had told them no minors!

I even moved from one end of the terrace to the other to get away from the bratty daycare and they followed me! It was so disrespectful! Next time: these people need to spend a few of the MANY $$$$$ they spent on a babysitter! The certainly splurged on the drinks and food so they could afford it and there were several families and generations. Someone could have babysat or afforded a babysitter! 😡😡😡“

“What a find! Made to feel so welcome the moment we walked in by the brilliant Courtney. It was thanksgiving so we were encouraged to try the Thanksgiving meal laid on, which was lovely and so kind of them to do so. We really enjoyed our time in their. I cant recommend Little bar on Gravier enough.“

“Fantastic bar, great options, good people.“

“A welcoming bar with friendly staff. We felt right at home the minute we walked in.“

“We went here on 6-12-25 and had Quinn as our waiter. GREAT service, great food and he made us feel right at home. We went back on 6-13-25 hoping he’d be working and he was. We had two incredible experiences two days in a row. If you’re in the Quarter, go here and ask for Quinn!!!“

“We had a wonder time at the Chandelier Bar! The setting is beautiful filled with natural light. The DJ was accompanied by a live sax! I made reservations for 8 and we had a seating area reserved for us. The cocktails were fun and creative. It was a wonderful end to a special Christmas week with our children and their spouses. I highly recommend an afternoon at the Chandelier Bar!“

“Most fun bar on Bourbon St!“

“For a quiet afternoon or evening great place to hang out“

“This shit was smacking it was the best burger I’ve ever had im from Dallas“

“Bartenders are awesome!! Especially to out of town customers. They make you feel like one of the regulars, like a resident. Absolutely one of the best customer service I've ever had.“

“Had Rollie’s hot dog, very good“

“A hole in the 7th Ward Wall...not to be missed during parade season or Sunday LIVE music nights. You'll dance and sing til closing time. A local haunt. IYKYK

Parking: Don't park on the neutral ground cause you never know when the city will show up to ticket cars“

“Get yourselves uptown, and visit the Maple Leaf, great ambiance and easy going down to earth people. Great bands, lovely outdoor sitting area! "Come on uptown! " I would give it 5 stars!!!“

“This is a hidden gem in New Orleans. If you like authentic Greek food you MUST come here. It’s fresh, made from scratch daily and the most luxurious. Try the ouzo drinks, flaming cheese, pork belly yeero, and orange cake made with a decadent orange glaze. The service is amazing! Luka was so kind, gracious, informative. Please help support this business. You won’t be disappointed. There’s a million other Cajun restaurants…go Greek! Please!“

“We took the pedestrian ferry from New Orleans to Algiers and walked 10 minutes to the bar. Ferry is modern, $2 fare, well staffed - it runs late as well. Algiers was an old neighborhood, but pretty clean, there’s a great path on top of the levee, we felt safe enough. The bar is “divey” but clean and well managed. We were very comfortable there. There is no food service - so we got pizza delivered. Staff was courteous and attentive. Nice stage, and a really good band called River Rock played ($5 cover – Elvis, Steely Dan, Petty, Springsteen, Eagles, Huey Lewis). It was worth the $5! Overall a great experience.“

“We're there every trip to NOLA. until the next time Marilyn...“

“I came for an author talk, and this was a great venue for that. Comfortable seats, friendly venue.“

“This restaurant has never failed to excite my tastebuds and bring culinary joy to my life. One of our favs!!!“

“Lives up to its name! Bartender Gavin & the regulars made us tourists feel right at home. Thanks for a fun evening!“

“Great atmosphere Friendly environment Awesome music and vibe! ❤️“

“Hand grenades hand grenades hand grenades!!“

“well I stumbled across this bar last week, was so well looked after by KC and the rest of the girls there. They have adopted me staff and guests, feel that I have a local here in New Orleans. Love drinking with local people wherever I am in the world!“
