After a day of drinking this was the perfect place to have some delicious food. Chef's kiss to the jambalaya and monkey buns. Will definitely be back! read more

Food is fantastic and prices are fair. We got a shrimp po boy, the copper wrap and the mash potatoe bowl app and they were all delicious and came out fast and hot. The only detractor to this place is the bartender, who you have to order threw and couldn't be bothered to deal with me for about 10-15 mins because she was talking to friends. I get it if it's busy, but she literally kept looking at me and I then back to her friends despite me obviously seeking her attention. Then when she did start my order she walked away twice, seemed to struggle with the computer and then eventually just pseudo passed me off to the doorman to give my order. All in all, good food, not dirty, and can serve as a quiet reprieve from the craziness of Bourbon but that bartender... read more

Copper Monkey Grill - The Copper wrap and mashed potato bowl app were amazing! So much cheeseeee - Dive Bars Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Their wings are pretty spectacular; so much so that I went back the next day!

Good customer service. But the food was very underwhelming. Open late night for a good cocktail which is a plus but if your not starving save your money to eat elsewhere. We had the crab cake bites that were flavorful but not fresh. The crawfish etoufee was completely blend and needed to be warmer. It wasn't a horrible experience, the bartender was nice, I just would stick to drinks only here. read more

Nice local place. Great burgers, crab stuffed mushrooms, sweet potato fries. Friendly staff. Classic rock music, not too loud to talk.

Great bar. Great service. Great food. Great local spot and not a lot of tourists. Get the jamby or gumbo.

Wow. Just don't come here. Bartender grabbed menus from us and announced kitchen closed after standing in line for 30 minutes. Ridiculous!!!! read more

This place was great! Shrimp PoBoy and fries were amazing! And they had customer service!!! The food was out quick too!

Long haired dude was hilarious, food was great. Definitely a spot with big dick energy

My fav place to eat in the quarter. The bartenders are personable. I went back twice so I could try more menu items. Local beer on tap plus many more local bottles too. This is one block off bourbon, open late, and offers wonderful late night snacks. Go where the locals go! read more

New favorite bar in NoLa! Right off of Bourbon Street. Good, cheap drinks. Zoe the bartender couldn't be nicer. The food was great too! Perfect for late night. Loved it! read more

Don't let appearances fool you. This is a decent bar with good food although, like others have said, don't order if you're in a rush. This place is usually less hectic than Bourbon street (even though its only a half a block off of it) but it can still get crowded and then it's a tight fit. If you get a spot at the bar, hold on to it. read more

Delicious food with great customer service. It's a bar that serves restaurant quality food and amazing taste. Oyster Po'boy, shimp Creole, Crawfish Etouffee and Gumbo are a must try! read more

We got pointed to this place by a local and were really glad we did. The service was great (the first time). The food was amazing every time! The drinks were great too! We came here two times and had vastly different service experiences. Once it was kinda slow and we got amazing personable service. Second time is was a little busy and had to almost throw stuff at the kid bartending because he couldnt stop talking to the ladies at the end of the bar. We had their Cat 5 Hurricanes and they were delicious and packed a punch! We also had crab stuffed mushrooms, shrimp creole (twice) and crawfish etoufette (twice) and WOW was it amazing. This is certainly a place ill come back to when Im back in NOLA. read more

This review is for the takeout only as we didn't stay at the bar. A bunch of drunk tourists looking for late night eats, our hotel attendant pointed us in the direction of the Copper Monkey. You can't go wrong with fried chicken wings and they were solid. Fried hard and seasoned very well. The service was polite and quick. They did the job! read more

Sometimes while in NOLA you just want a cold azz Miller High Life and damn hot fries. The grilled shrimp poboy was excellent, not too saucy, but great flavor. Fried catfish poboy was fried to perfection and flavorful. The bartenders were attentive and polite. Didn't have the kids this trip, but next time know where I can get a to-go order for grilled cheese and cheeseburger for them. read more

This place was recommended by our Uber driver on the way in from the airport. Just off Bourbon on Conti street, this place has a locals feel to it. They just reopened after a fire and the crawfish etoufee was delicious! read more

Amazing food and service. Staff was great food was served hot and freshly cooked. Will deffinatly be back again

Maybe I was really hungover or maybe the burger was really the best thing I've ever eaten. Burger and fries were made hot to order and came out relatively quickly. Even if it had taken longer it's not a place I'd mind hanging out for a bit. I'm pretty sure the combination of grease and love out of the kitchen here brought me back to life. read more

Looking for cold, cold beet and great food? You'll find it here. Was looking for good food without all the sauces and the hype. This was great food cooked and seasoned perfectly. The chef did a fantastic job! When we walked in everyone at the bar said hello. Love this place. read more

Delicious shrimp po boy, jambalaya and whitney special. Great service and good music.

Really good food in a relaxed bar atmosphere. Best etouffee that we had on our entire trip!! We also really loved their shrimp Po boy. And their monkey buns are a MUST! We went to the Copper Monkey Grill 3 times on our trip. It was just that good!! read more

This is a great restaurant. The prices are very reasonable and the food is delicious! The staff is welcoming, nice, and engaging. Great customer service. Highly recommend! read more

Just arrived in town and walked next door (staying at Hotel Le Marais). Crazy busy bar! Ordered jambalaya and gumbo...did not disappoint. Both were awesome. Ordered the house special cocktail...spank the Monkey. It was like nothing I've tasted before and so good! read more

Tiny place but decent food. Hubby had crawfish poppers and said the were pretty good. I had a really good ribeye quesadilla. Only bad part is their patio is almost fully enclosed, so no breeze at all, but it was almost fully shaded. Only one waitress/bartender for the joint read more

Must try the monkey buns!! Beignets filled with banana and chocolate powered with sugar. read more

Nice quiet duck off place right next to Bourbon. No loud nosy people can sit drink and eat fast service. You would differently enjoy especially if you want to sit and have a drink before navigating the crazy city. Small but cozy and clean. read more

I'll admit, I hit this place on the first night of a recent New Orleans trip, and I don't have a clear recollection of everything. Bourbon Street has that effect. I remember the bartender was friendly and gave us good recommendations about food and drink. The place was a little dead while we were there, but the patrons that were present seemed friendly as well. What I do remember were the crab stuffed mushrooms on the appetizer menu. I make something similar - a rather basic mushroom/spinach hors d'oeuvres which are always great.. but the Copper Monkey deep fries the 'shroom right next to some blue crab. Heaven! The other reviews are correct that this place offers better/cheaper food and a calmer ambiance when looking for a break from Bourbon. I really appreciate this... though I'm not sick of the most popular street in the Crescent City just yet! read more

Our first night in New Orleans and we wanted to grab a quick bite. This spot is not too far off of Bourbon Street the area is dark not too many street lights kind of a warehouse district feel but hey we still had a good meal. The bouncer checks your ID and you order at the bar. We ordered crab balls catfish po boy and beignets. All of the food was good and seasoned well. I don't drink sodas often but this root beer was pretty good. read more

They do make some pretty amazing bar food and it would the best bar food in town if they actually came out before an hour. We flew into New Orleans so late that by the time we checked it to our hotel, it was already 10 pm. So we decided to find some food and this place had pretty good review and they were one of the fews that still had food. We sat in the bar and order drinks and food. The drinks came out quickly but the food (3 items) took more than an hour and half to come out. After a long day of traveling and being hungry, it wasn't a pleasant experience waiting for such a long time for food. The bartender apologized and gave the excuse that they were doing shift change. However, we only got that news after 30 minutes in of waiting. Also when we first sat down, another table actually asked about their food as well. Maybe it is the shift change or it could be that I keep seeing the cook walking outside to talk on the phone several time. read more

The service was really great and personal. The bartender was very friendly and attentive despite the bar being crowded, both my wife and I had food/dinner and drinks. read more

Good food, great service. Good place to kick back and relax. Stopped in for a quick beverage stop and stayed for dinner.

Recommended to us by some locals and did not disappoint! We went back 2 times after for late night snacks and drinks they have awesome food!!!! read more

Update your hours on Yelp. If you're going to close, don't advertise being 24/7! Very frustrating to pay for a Lyft, arrive at your doorstep and find you are CLOSED!!! read more

Blue cheese burger was so damn good, and the fried catfish po'boy was perfection. Good music, and good vibes.

Food is great but the woman bartender with dark hair, looks emo-ish, is always rude. Never picks up the phone to do orders. Makes an excuse every time I see her as to why she can't take an order. Or on the very rare occasion she does pick up the phone, she still can't take an order. Food is amazing which is why I'm disappointed that the stuff never has it together. The kitchen does, though. read more

Great bartender, good service and no complaints on the food either. Salad was fresh with lots of fixings and appetizers

Nice little dive bar. Food was a total surprise. I got the bleu cheese burger with bacon. Was good. Friend got a salad that looked really good and fresh. What stole the show was the monkey buns, which were beignets with banana foster filing. They were awesome!! read more
