Okay Listen, Molly is incredible. Not only is she the BEST bartender but she’s the BEST DJ via tablet- and she’s got moves to go with it. We enjoyed her smile, her service and her hospitality. Honestly, just give her a raise. We will be back, but back for Molly.

This is, without a doubt, my favorite bar in New Orleans. They can get pretty slammed on weekends, of course, but the weekdays are where they really shine in my opinion. The bar becomes much more personal. I’ve met so many interesting people. The bartenders are top notch. The happy hour is great. The single barrel sazerac is my favorite, the whiskey and a shot for $10 is a great deal, but the happy hour old fashioned is definitely my go-to because of price and quality. You will not find a better $6 old fashioned. You will not find a better bar in the city.

I was so excited by a bar that supposedly has a legit whisky menu. They do not, it is completely show. I ordered 4 single malts they were out of each. The bartenders can pour a beer, but have no knowledge of whiskey. If you want a general beer bar, pull up and order a pbr, if you are a. Discerning whiskey drinker look elsewhere.

Everything people are saying is true, this is a great bar with a good selection of most types of drink. Beautiful decor and counter area, great service (all at the bar). Can get very loud and crowded. Food is hit or miss depending on the vendor and the day of the week, but the setup is charming (small kitchen in the back for pop ups).

One of the best collections of whiskey in New orleans. Unfortunately, their prices are considerably more than a rusty nail and other places that may have a slightly smaller selection but much better pricing.
Have been there many times and without exception they needed several more bartenders to meet the needs of all the people trying to get a drink

Barrel Proof is a great place to get cocktails ! The lighting is very dim, but it can have a good vibe. They have various food options available depending on the week. The bartenders are very friendly and can pretty much make any drink you would like to try!
