This is the quintessential beer bar in New Orleans. The Avenue is an institution - open 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. The bar staff is knowledgeable about their vast selection of foreign and local beers. Great place to have a few on the upstairs balcony, or grab one to go for walking around the Garden District.

Amazing patio space that is great both rain or shine - it's also dog-friendly, so your furry friends can come along. If beer isn't your style, check out Bayou Wine Garden - they share the same address. They also have great bar food at the Beer Garden and fancier small plates at the Wine Garden.

Food Scene

Great breakfast and brunch spot, within walking distance. It can get a bit crowded on the weekends, but just pop into the Jockey next door to get a mimosa while you wait!

Arts & Culture

If you have access to a car and can only see one plantation home during your stay here, Oak Alley is the one. The view of the alley of centuries-old live oaks is iconic and has been featured in multiple movies. The interior of the house has been stunningly restored after years of neglect. There's also a restaurant on site after you finish your tour.
