Good atmosphere. Food wasn't great. I'd stay away from the crawfish poppers. Very grainy tasting and had a bad texture. Cold beer and stiff drinks. read more

We had a large group of 21ppl celebrating our friends 40th bday staying right next door at Hotel Le Marais and originally discovered this place when looking for somewhere to watch a basketball game (with sound) on our last day. However, this gem became our home base for our entire trip. We're a rowdy group and when we were all in there, we pretty much consumed the whole place. Staff was ALWAYS kind and patient lol. Food was really good (while not our first place for meals, we discovered with all our drinking we ate more than one lunch/dinner lol) Lorna is a great drink maker and is super funny. Thanks for putting up with us! read more

The food was really good. Bartender was busy but attentive. She handled the group of people around the bar with ease letting people know in what order she would get to you. The food came quickly despite the reviews as our group had catfish poboys and jambalaya. I would definitely return. read more

Literally, the BEST shrimp creole I've ever had! My husband and I have toured all around New Orleans and have eaten pretty much everywhere. From 'high end' to not so 'high end' and this place has THE BEST shrimp creole!! We've been there 3 times....in our 4 day vacation stay in New Orleans. We love it! Highly recommend it! read more

Good spot for a drink. Pass on the food.....at least the po boy and gumbo.

I visit this place every tome I go to New Orleans. You order at the bar but service is quick. I have had all the classics here....po' boys, crawfish, etouffee, jambalaya and have never been disappointed. The bartenders are friendly, food is fast, drinks are cold, and the atmosphere is casual. The perfect place to pop in off of Bourbon Street. read more

This is a nice place just off Bourbon street. It is low key, which is sometimes just what you need when you're in this area. Reasonable prices, clean place, with friendly service and freedom from the usual assholery that permeates this general neighborhood. read more

We had the crab cake bites and crawfish poppers they both were amazing! Had the crawfish etouffe so good. My husband had shrimp po boy and it was amazing as well. Will be a spot we go back to when we visit!! read more

Copper Monkey Grill - Dive Bars Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Guess I came on a bad night. I am so upset that my blackened poboy came out so bland and dry. I want to cry because the other reviews are awesome and my meal wasn't. Also my drink was so terrible. Maybe I ordered the wrong thing. Who knows... inserts *kanye shrugs* read more

Copper Monkey Grill - Taste as dry as it looks. I am not happy - Dive Bars Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

This is a nice local bar with a simple but good menu for casual dining. We had the crab cake appetizer which was tasty. The garden salad was ok. My wife and I had Po Boy sandwiches. She had the fried catfish and I had the grilled shrimp. We both thought the food was great and service efficient and friendly. We would return! Was this review helpful? read more

First time at this bar and it was great. The food really is amazing for a hole in the wall and the bartender was a lot of fun - didn't get his name tho. The group of Peruvians(?) in town for the Saints game added a lot to the atmosphere. Would definitely recommend for a great meal and friendly-most-of-out-of-town patrons. read more

Happy to have this place open both due to COVID and when we got into New Orleans. We had great service and great food. We're thankful our hotel recommended this establishment read more

I just tried to call to get an order delivered they answered said to "probably call back in an hour" and then he hung up on me. I can not believe how terribly I was treated. Terrible place DONT EVER GO TO THIS PLACE! read more

Absolutely the best hamburger in town. Had the Bleu cheese burger and couldn't finish my plate. Fries were excellent also

Great please to grab drinks and or grab a bite to snack on. The bartenders are great and drinks are the best! I have been going to this place for over 8-10 years. Love it! read more

Everybody I know loves the Caesar wrap. The regular wings are decent with the Thai sauce. The beignets are filled and pretty good. They are super sweet, so have sweet tooth prepared. read more

We went here to grab a quick bite before a tour we scheduled. Probably the best hot wings I've ever had! Crab cake bites were amazing too but a little pricy at over $1 each. It's like bar food but actually really good! read more

The service and hospitality is phenomenal! The bar tender is from France. The best drinks and food in the quarter! Plrase visit this venue! read more

Great dive bar with banana beignets.

Zach is the best bartender ever. He has the best beard and he deals with you regardless of your state. Also your food can be given to you at 2am. The bar is not ADA accessible and the food is basic greasy drunk food which will get you to where you want to be. Water is free and Zach will talk to you the entire time. The ambiance is nice with Christmas lights and good service. Good place to rest your head on the wall while you've drunken too much. You have locals who give you background noise with super hipster vibes. Food is good. read more

Dive bar, good service, good food, good jukebox, reasonable prices-what more can you ask for? The Copper Club Wrap with fries was more than enough to fill me up (I didn't finish either). My husband had the small Whitney Special-basically all your favorite drunken food cravings in a bowl. read more

It's good, however, they take forever and a day! I honestly felt like i could've gone back to the kitchen and peeled and fried my own patatoes! And probably killed my own chicken and taken off the feathers.... that's how long! read more

If you're on Bourbon Street (which is your first mistake) and want a drink and bite that won't cost you an arm and a leg, then the Copper Monkey is the place for you. I come here when I'm forced out to Bourbon Street by visiting friends. They don't charge $15 for a drink and another $15 for two pieces of crap chicken. You can get out of here spending $15 for both. There food is quite good and the bartenders are very friendly. I'd suggest the tater tots if you need some food to sober up your drunk friends. Works like a charm. read more

The Oyster Po Boy was delicious! It may not look like much, but it was surprising great!

This is by far the best Shrimp PoBoy I've had in NOLA. The bartender was very friendly and knowledgeable. The service was fast.

Had dinner here because it got great Yelp reviews. We are not seafood lovers and this place had enough alternatives for us. Another couple was just getting up to leave and gave us their seats at the bar. They recommended and RAVED about the amazing spaghetti and meatball dinner special. After I heard that I REALLY wanted spaghetti but hubby had his heart set on nachos. They were so good! Cheesy and loaded with toppings with large chips for scooping. Definitely enough for two. The bartender was very friendly with a big, pretty smile and she took great care of us. We also got the banana beignets (Monkey Buns) and they were AH-MAZING. Only drawback for us was the very loud hard rock music, but hey we are old and it IS a dive-y bar in the French Quarter so I get it. Beer on tap selection small but good variety. read more

Food was delicious but it took 45 minutes to get our order (chicken wings and po-boys). Locals came in 30 minutes after us and we're served right away with the same food order. Not a good place to go for food at 2am if you're not a local. read more

It's a great place. There's an eccentric old man who shows up and acts like he knows the owner.

Yeah, so you visit New Orleans to stuff your face with booze and amazing Cajun/Creole food. But the peanut butter burger here is awesome. When I saw it on the menu, I was apprehensive to even try it. But I went against my initial feelings and ordered it and... dang was it delicious! read more

Great little treasure in New Orleans. Try the Shrimp Creole cup - you won't regret it! Service, food, and drinks are great - make sure to stop here when you're in town. read more

Went here with my boyfriend to grab a bite to eat. Loved the enviroment. Food was great. Average bar prices from what I have noticed. The burgers are excellent! read more

The bartender s were friendly and the food is good if you go get the monkey buns they are awesome read more

Copper Monkey Grill - Dive Bars Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Great dive bar! Have been 2 days in a row and Vee was bartending; she not only makes great drinks and is totally personable, she gave us the low-down on where to go... and where to avoid. Great little place to chill and the food is good too! read more

This is my go to when in the quarter and I'm hungry. The staff is great and it's one of the best small joints off bourbon.

Easy, quick and tasty. I was walking by in my lunch break from a seminar. Place looked chill. The bartender was nice and very attentive. I ordered the Copper Wrap and a Shiner. The wrap was quite tasty. The avocado went very well with the bacon and turkey. Everything came out hot. Just the way I like it. If your looking for a spot to grab a quick bite, you can go wrong at Copper Monkey Grill. read more

Line for other restaurants in area was ridiculous. Stopped here for a drink. Great vibe, great drinks! We ended up eating dinner....had burgers and sandwiches and they were DELICIOUS!!! read more

Irish bar tender is Awesome!!!! The peanut butter burger MUST have!!! And the money bun are to die for!! Definitely a MUST go when visiting NOLA!!! read more

Yeah it's a dive bar that's open til the sun comes up, but my wife and I had a great chilled-out lunch here with delicious food and perfect service. Zoë was wonderful and the food came out hot and fast. read more

We went to this place on recommendation from some of the local staff working on Bourbon St. It's just off Bourbon St, so you can step away from the madness and get right back when you are done snacking. It's open pretty late too, when a lot of other nearby kitchens are closed. The food was okay, nothing great. My wife tried the Shrimp Etouffee and she was kind of disappointed. It may have been just the one time, but she and a couple of other fellow guests found it too salty. My burger was decent, not too bad or too great. Just your average bar burger. The real kicker was when we tried the monkey buns, it was SO UNBELIEVABLY GOOD. It totally made up for our average food experience up until that point. read more

Nice little spot right off the main drag. I had shrimp Creole, and shrimp po boy with fries. I also had a local draft, wheat beer, and The Big Easy IPA in a bottle. Everything was great, prices weren't too high, as expected for the area, but still reasonable. Very friendly, attentive bar tender as well. read more
