Go to the Rusty Nail for exceptional bourbons, knowledgeable, friendly staff, great prices & excellent service... it's well worth would it takes to find it. Also they have a 25% off whiskey Wednesdays!!! Wife and I happened to get there b4 opening on Wednesday. One of the staff ladies took us around inside to show us what Bourbons they had available. Treated us very very kindly...!!! Went back later after a terrible experience at Barrel proof and we just sat there for about 2 hours and enjoyed ourselves. When we get back to New Orleans we'll be back!!

Jason was our bartender tonight and we had an amazing experience. Great drinks, great service. It was our first time here as we are from out of town and Jason was incredibly welcoming. On top of the friendliness he had an excellent knowledge of bourbon and we were able to get a drink that we hadn't had before, which turned out to be one of the greatest tasting bourbons we've ever tasted. The patio has a great atmosphere as well, 10/10 recommend going here. Thank you for the wonderful conversation and thank you Rusty Nail for the wonderful ambiance.

I want to thank the staff at The Rusty Nail. The staff was amazing, the food excellent and the service was above and beyond. I really enjoyed the celebration on January 20, 2024. I will come back when I am in town. Tracy
We hosted a networking event here one night and everyone had a blast! The staff were so friendly and helpful and communicative in the planning days before our event and during it! Great cocktail menu and solid beer selection. And the food was excellent pub food (shrimp cocktail, fish dip, fries, wings, oysters).

Great neighborhood bar in the warehouse district with an incredible whiskey selection. The staff are inviting, down to earth, and genuine. Love swinging in and they make you feel like you’re stopping by at a friend’s. Bar is warm, cozy, and charming. They have a great set up to watch LSU and Saints games! Food orders can be placed using the QR Codes for Side Car and they’ll run them over to your spot.love their wide cocktail and drink selections!Parking: Parking is free around the neighborhood but you’re competing for spots with local residents.

Nice neighborhood bar. The special that night was a "Haircut and shot" for $12. A lot of fun.
