Great little neighborhood bar, indicative of New Orleans. Reasonable drink prices, friendly staff and patrons.

No internal food, but regular pop ups daily! And late night yakamein, most nights!

We didn’t get anything because the bar tender was rude to our friend. She opened the door to look for another person in our and he replied “Thanks for buying a drink” in a very disrespectful manner. We tried to let it go but after asking for him to cash out our voucher he specifically said “I’m getting to you last” with an attitude and proceeded to make us wait while he service patrons that walked in well after us. Birthday trip to NOLA tainted by a misunderstanding and an unnecessary attitude. Never coming back.

Cool crowd. Bartenders are efficient and work hard. Great spot to land after a Jazz Fest day.
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.

Pal’s Lounge is a true neighborhood gem in New Orleans. It has that perfect balance of a laid-back, welcoming atmosphere with just the right amount of character. The bartenders are fantastic—friendly, attentive, and always ready with a great drink recommendation.
The cocktails are well-crafted, and the beer selection is solid, making it a great spot whether you’re in the mood for a classic drink or something new. The vibe is casual and unpretentious, with a mix of locals and visitors, which adds to its charm. It’s the kind of place where you can easily strike up a conversation or just unwind and enjoy the ambiance.
Whether you’re stopping by for a quick drink or settling in for the evening, Pal’s delivers every time. Highly recommend for anyone looking to experience an authentic New Orleans bar with great drinks and even better company!

Okay, buckle up, because I'm about to tell you about the absolute gem of New Orleans, the place that sets the bar (pun intended!) so high, every other watering hole just fades into the background. I'm talking about Pals Lounge, the undisputed king of the New Orleans bar scene. If you haven't been, stop what you're doing and get there immediately. This isn't just a 10/10 review; it's a love letter.
From the moment you step inside, Pals envelops you in its unique magic. The atmosphere is electric, a perfect blend of sophisticated charm, and unpretentious warmth. It's the kind of place where you feel equally comfortable dressed to the nines or rocking your favorite jeans. The lighting is just right – creating a cozy, intimate vibe that encourages conversation and connection. Forget those loud, overcrowded tourist traps; Pals is where you go to actually enjoy your drink and the company you're with.
And speaking of drinks...oh my goodness, the cocktails. These aren't your run-of-the-mill, sugary concoctions. The bartenders at Pals are true artists, crafting innovative and classic cocktails with an unparalleled level of skill and passion. They use only the freshest ingredients, and their attention to detail is simply astounding. Whether you're a seasoned cocktail aficionado or someone who just appreciates a well-made drink, Pals will blow you away.
But Pals is more than just amazing drinks and a killer atmosphere. It's the people who truly make it special. The bartenders are incredible – friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about providing an exceptional experience. They remember your name, your drink, and always have a smile ready. It's clear they love what they do, and that energy is contagious. And it's not just their team; the patrons at Pals are a diverse and interesting mix of locals and visitors, all coming together to enjoy the unique vibe. You're bound to strike up a conversation with someone fascinating and leave with a few new friends.
Honestly, I could go on and on about Pals Lounge. The music is always on point, the prices are reasonable for the quality you're getting, and the location is perfect. But the real magic of Pals is something you have to experience for yourself. It's the feeling you get when you walk in, the feeling you have when you leave – completely satisfied and already planning your next visit. Pals Lounge isn't just a bar; it's an experience. It's the heart and soul of the New Orleans bar scene, and it’s, without a doubt, a 10/10 in every single way. Go. Now. You won't regret it.
