What an experience at Brieux Carré! We used this as an afternoon stop on a day of walking. So, the…read morecold beer was a nice thirst quenching treat. But then...the power went out. What a change in atmosphere; groovy music & mumbly conversations to pure quietness and hearing everybody's voices. It was still a great experience. After about 15 minutes indoors with no a/c (IYKYK), the New Orleans heat caused us to head to the outdoor beer garden. It had rained a little bit, so it was a little cooler. FORTUNATELY, beer was still able to be poured, and the power was back on by the time the second beer was half gone. Aside from all that excitement, the focus is on the tasty beer created here. The two beers I had were great: Malcolm in the Mittlefruh and Helles Knows I'm Miserable Now (which I'm positive Morrissey would love - or would he just cry in it?). Kudos to the clever people that come up with the names! There is also a kitchen, but a belly still full from lunch, and no power meant no orders from us. Next time!

A cute brewery in the heart of the Marigny and walking distance to the French Quarter. I was in the…read morearea for an event at the Jazz Museum so decided to swing by this brewery beforehand. This brewery is right on Decatur with a couple of tables in front good for watching the traffic coming through. There's also a patio in the back with plenty more seating options. I sat inside where there was plenty of space. There were a good selection of beers on the menu. And the options differed from other breweries with units of Liters. I, of course, had to have an IPA and I got in as a 0.5L (closest to a pint). The flavor was good with a good hoppy taste to it. This is a great place to chill with friends and enjoy some nice beers. There's also a menu but it's only available on certain days of the week. Service: Order at the counter Wifi: Yes Parking: Street Parking (both metered and non metered available) Seating: Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating

Yet, it seems quite popular with locals and was fairly full for a Tuesday Trivia Night. I ordered a Pimm's cup since Pimm's was on the shelf - the bartender looked confused and told me they don't have any of the ingredients to make one. I changed my order to a flavored vodka - they don't stock any. I ended up ordering a Vodka & 7, but received a Vodka Soda. Were the drinks cheap? Not so much. Was the service friendly? Not so much. I ordered food hoping this was the redeeming feature of the bar. I ordered a steak sandwich at $18 - the service time was quick but the sandwich didn't have much flavor - it was a dry, difficult to bite through thin steak with not much flavor to speak of. The tater tots were crispy and hot and I loved the Brussel Sprouts; they were doused excessively in the dressing but I liked it. There is a nice patio out back - they had fans in this area which is always appreciated. This bar just didn't have the stock and amenities that many other bars in the area do have . Walk to magazine street for better options.

It was cash only forever, but last year, they started taking credit cards. There are 2 ATMs inside, if you want to pay cash but don't have it on you. Great music playing, plus a jukebox. Martini was great and iced cold - even gave me 3 olives! My husband got a hand crafted Hurricane which was one of the best we've had in New Orleans! You can also get a quick (or longer) massage next door at a good Hands!

I stop here every trip to New Orleans and before I know it my whole afternoon is gone. Very basic alcohol selection with a few craft beers. They prefer cash but they do take card now. I pay cash because we are having one more and moving on. Never happens. I think we were here 3 hours last trip. Such friendly staff and patrons. Watching football n chopping it up. We probably spent maybe $30 drinking the Saturday afternoon away, made new friends. No food here so we end up leaving when we start starving and then end up coming back for a nightcap. Don't let the hole in wall appearance fool you. Worth the stop on your next trip.

While the service wasn't very attentive, our food did come out pretty quickly. We had to keep asking for what we needed, as there weren't any check-ins throughout our visit. Overall, the service felt more like it got the job done rather than being welcoming or engaging. We ordered a few items to try, including the Who Dat Shrimp, wings, and a cheeseburger with fries. The Who Dat Shrimp were my favorite. They had a perfect crisp, and the sauce on top was really good. The wings also had a nice flavor, but they weren't tossed in the sauce as stated on the menu. Instead, the sauce was just poured in the middle of the plate. The burger and fries were good.

The walk there was pretty easy...I was concerned it might get a little dicey by the interstate underpass but it really didn't. My bar is usually pretty low for breweries because they are usually run on a shoestring by a group of guys that really love beer but don't always know how to run a business. This place is a weird, eclectic vibe. The furniture and overall vibe is pretty dumpy. The bar is even super wobbly. The beer list they have online indicating it is their current list was in no way related to the beer selection they actually had available. It was super limited with a lot of IPAs and sours. Not my jam. The is a food vendor on site as well; they have burritos, quesadillas, etc. it looked okay, but i wasn't in the mood for Mexican style food. Overall, it's fine. I like to try new places. I'm glad I stopped in but i wouldn't go back.

They are really good but I think they could be better. The crust wasn't as doughy and perfect as other pizzas I have had in the past and the thin part sometimes just fell apart. But flavors were on point and good for a classic pizza. Make sure you tip well and make sure you tip Michael making the pizzas in the back cause when he is there I felt like the pizzas were 10x. The ambience is like a tourist spot with high in and outs, but also with a cool treehouse looking bar. Music is a vibe so it keeps people in and out. And service is always quick and on point. I would recommend this pizza if you are around here.

This place is fantastic whether you're popping in for after-work drinks, or even a platter of their seasonal crawfish (often cash only from the vendor, around $19 per box with fixings--check their Instagram for updates). a solid menu of bites like poppers, crab cakes, fries, and burgers, plus that expansive outdoor seating connected to Bayou Wine Garden, it's an ideal hangout to soak in the evening bliss of NOLA. The staff is typically kind and efficient, handling the packed crowds with ease despite all the requests. Give it a try--whether you're a local or a tourist, you'll feel right at home by the bayou.
