Bruno's
7601 Maple St. , New Orleans, LA
(504) 861-7615
Bruno's is a classic college bar located
right next to Tulane Campus. It's a pretty young crowd, but not
the meat head fest that is the Boot. All things considered it's
OK. Just don't try to wear a ball cap backwards or they will kick
you ass out.
Butler's Black Pearl Lounge
140 Millaudon St , New Orleans, LA
(504) 861-3444
For the freaks of the world this is your
place; along with their other bar Snake and Jakes. They even have an
In-television you can play while you're in there. I wouldn't take
a yuppie here, but its a cool alternative to the usual.
Columns Hotel Bar
3811 St. Charles Ave. , New Orleans, LA
(504) 899-9308
The Columns Bar is located on the first
floor of the still in operation Columns Hotel. It's charming
decor is the same as decades ago and the bartenders where tuxedos.
The crowd ranges from preppy to young college to wedding reception
guests. Interesting fact: this is where "Pretty Baby" starring a
very young Brooke Shields was filmed.
Cooter Brown's
509 S. Carrollton Avenue , New Orleans, LA
(504) 866-9104
The only bar that can pass for a sports bar
in uptown, they will shuck you some oysters while you watch the
game. Good TV setup, but they don't usually have the sound on unless
isn't a local game. Large beer selection. A little pricey and
their golden T machines sucks. 2 pool tables.
F & M Patio Bar
4841 Tchoupitoulas Street , New Orleans, LA
(504) 895-6784
Famous for their dancing on the pool tables,
F&M is a poping place after about Midnight. If you looking for a
pick-up joint with a little spice this is your place.
Fat Harry's
4330 St. Charles Avenue , New Orleans, LA
A sea of white baseball cap headed college
guys and mini skirt wearing college girls, Fats caters mainly to the
young college crowd. They do have cheap drinks and a reliable juke
box, though, and pretty good burgers.
Igor's Buddha Belly Burger Bar
4437 Magazine Street , New Orleans, LA
Pretty good food, karaoke nights, pool
tables, and a library. Something for everyone.
Igor's Lounge
2133 St. Charles Avenue , New Orleans, LA
(504) 522-2145
Open all night, you can always find a party
here whatever the hour. Igor's also conveniently contains a
laundry mat, so you can wash your clothes drunk at four in the
morning if the mood takes you.
Madigan's
800 S Carrollton , New Orleans, LA
(504) 866-9455
Early twenties, older college crown, good
drinks, friendly staff, clean and respectable looking its one of the
better bars in uptown. It can get a little crowed sometimes and its
not that big of a place.
Phillip's Restaurant & Bar
733 Cherokee St. , New Orleans, LA
(504) 865-1155
Phillip's is always dark. The door is
manned by a big burley bouncer and drinks are served exclusively by
chicks. Get there early and you can play the better-than-average
jukebox and shoot a few games of pool. Later in the night it turns
into a dance music frenzy. Pretty cool in the summer when they
occasionally open the patio.
St. Joe's
5535 Magazine St. , New Orleans, LA
The inner bar is decorated with crosses, but
not in an icky goth way. There's a pool table surrounded by
benches and ample place to chill. Out back there's a big, climate
controlled courtyard and a back bar. The bartenders and crowd are
easygoing and friendly making this a favorite spot for neighborhood
folk and the older college crowd.
Snake & Jake's Christmas Club Lounge
7612 Oak St. , New Orleans, LA
(504) 861-2802
Owned and operated by the same people that
run snake and jakes. There are some shady characters in this joint.
They server good drinks, and I have stumbled out of there after the
sun has rising more than once with the place still kicking. Enter at
your own risk
The Boot
1039 Broadway St , New Orleans, LA
(504) 861-2200
Meaty frat boy central, the boot is on
Tulane campus right across the street from the Pike House. I have
not stepped foot in this place for a few years, but I am sure it is
the exact same. They used to have one of the best pizza stands in
town, but it is no longer.
The Club/ Ms Mae's
4336 Magazine St. , New Orleans, LA
(504) 895-9401
2 dollar bourbon and cokes all the time and their
stiffies too! Its a local favorite. Usually packed to the late hours
and right across the street from the police station. Twenty
something crowd. Not very fancy.
Tipitina's
501 Napoleon Ave. , New Orleans, LA
(504) 895-8477
One of the best bars to see live music at in
New Orleans. They Frequently have well known artists
Waldo's Restaurant & Bar
7130 Feret St., New Orleans, LA
(504) 861-0236
Waldo's is almost exclusively visited by
Loyola kids who inhabit it like a frat house. However, it may be
worth the trip since they virtually give away liquor.
