Classic, old school neighborhood bar in a little pocket neighborhood. In fact, the location is probably what keeps it what it is. I almost always have to explain its location when I mention Homedale to anyone. This is a dart bar, so Tuesday nights get packed. The bartenders are very friendly, and it's a great, full bar with great beer selection. The sign says "since 1937", and it's a quiet little area, and when you step in, you will immediately think: "classic, old school neighborhood bar", and you'll enjoy hanging out. read more

Very friendly neighborhood bar. We went on a Wednesday night and joined in on the trivia contest; lots of fun. Reasonable drink prices with good selection of beers. Monday is steak night; Thursday is smash burgers. read more

A true hidden gem. I never think to go here on my own, but when a friend suggests it, I jump at the chance. Chill vibe, clientele and staff. A great place to watch a game or just hang out and chat. Just a really unassuming place that I plan to frequent more often. read more

Homedale Inn is an old school dive bar. After reading Shannon and Harry's reviews I bookmarked this bar. While it took me almost a year to finally visit, I am glad I did. This doesn't seem like the kind of place one would normally find in this area. The Bulldog and Parlay's are close by, but I never could get into the atmosphere of those places. Homedale Inn is much more relaxed and less pretentious. In fact, it is all around better than the other bars nearby. My crew and I came by one night and despite the fact that none of us had ever been there, we were all greeted as regulars. The real regulars were surprisingly accepting of our somewhat rowdy group. The beer selection was decent, and prices were in line with most other dive bars. If I find myself in Lakeview, this is the bar I will most likely end up visiting. read more

Awesome local bar with good peeps. We were there for a Krewe party at Christmas. Owners and bartenders kind and helpful, and the regular crowd was hospitable. If in the area and in need of a neighborhood bar with cold beer, I'd hit up the Homedale Inn again for sure. No question. read more

WOW I can't believe no one has ever reviewed the Homedale Inn! Well I used to live right down the street and this was one of our favorite neighborhood spots when we didn't feel like venturing out much. This place has been around forever! (since 1937 to be exact). I am not a beer person but they carry lots of beers. Each night of the week they host different events (darts, open mic, comedy, trivia and the famous New Orleans classic "steak night"). It's a perfectly respectable neighborhood joint bar for you to hang out at. read more

Homedale Inn - Bars Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Perfect. That's the way to describe this bar. The last night I walked in Bob Seger's "Night Move" was playing and I knew I was where I needed to be. You come in here, have a drink, and talk to folks. Be a person. No networking LinkedIn bullshit. It's just comfortable with a great tap. They always have Highife or craft beers life Wiseacre on draft. read more

Fun dive bar in the Navarre/Lakeview neighborhood! Homedale Inn was established in 1937, making it the oldest bar in all of Lakeview. Frequented by locals from the surrounding neighborhood, you will pass your time here taking advantage of the great drink prices and free food during all Saints and LSU games. The bartenders here are very nice and are quick to make suggestions if you're not sure what you want. Check the chalk board inside to see the changing events calendar, as they constantly have themed parties and hold weekly trivia too. They also have video poker and darts as well as an outdoor deck for smokers. read more

Homedale Inn - a brown and white dog on a leash - Bars Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

What an interesting bar. Total locals dive, tucked into the Navarre neighborhood (often confused for Lakeview). It's the kind of place that everyone knows everyone's name, but none of them recognize faces because it's so dark and likely everyone's so drunk! They have some high tables and the bar, dart board and some tiny TV's. They give away free crockpot food occasionally and they do a mean trivia night. There's an awesome juke box inside too. The beers are cheap and mostly everyone sits outside and smokes and uses the inside to grab their drinks. Plenty of street parking! read more

The oldest bar in Lakeview/Navarre, this place embodies New Orleans. Everyone here is welcoming and friendly. A true local dive, many of the people here are regulars, including myself. Great place to watch the Saints games as they have multiple TVs and speakers. There is an outside seating area with TVs as well. They also do karaoke once a month, and trivia night is every Wednesday (many people agree it's one of the best in town). Keep up with their Facebook, they post regularly about what's going on that week. If you come often, the bartenders are great about remembering your order, but are happy to oblige if you're feeling something different. The only day they are closed is Mardi Gras Day. Don't forget to say hi to the bar cat, Siren, and give her some love. If you really want to feel like a Nola native, this is the bar to go to! read more

Homedale Inn - a bar with a lot of decorations - Bars Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

This is a really cool, old school, dive bar that has a fantastic atmosphere with wonderful service. They have a loyal following and it is a great place to hang out and enjoy yourself. They have a great steak night every Thursday (just $10) and the prices on the drinks are always reasonable. It is in a bit of a hidden location so you need to know it is there or you will probably just drive right by it. This is definitely a great place to grab a drink and soak in some local ambiance. read more

Homedale is my second home. Plenty of the regulars are within walking distance, but a few of them drive across the city to frequent this place, and for good reason. It's a pretty typical neighboorhood bar, with 3 TVs that almost always have games on--basketball, football, soccer, you name it. What makes Homedale exceptional are the people--ALL of the bartenders are super-friendly, the owners are awesome, and all of the regulars are great, too. Thursday night is STEAK NIGHT, $10 for a steak and fixins, which you can't beat with a stick. Besides being cheap, they're delicious, too (thanks Aaron!!!). Tuesday night is Trivia night, compete to win a bar tab. The best times, in my opinion, are weekdays (late afternoon-early evening), and Sundays super-late. Sometimes the bar gets jam-packed, which is awesome if that's what you're into, but not so cool when I just want to go in there and talk with my pals. Homedale just celebrated its 74th birthday, and it's clear why it's been open this long--it's friggin awesome. The Homedaliens are my awesome, amazing, super-cool family. read more

I have been here a handful of times and really enjoy the environment. The girls behind the bar are welcoming and friendly. There is a mixed bag of laid back people and not overrun with hipsters. The smoke is heavy but I really don't mind because there are so many reasons to like this place. read more

Good staff, patrons and prices. I moved to this neighborhood looking to mingle with the locals and I felt very welcomed by this bar. Jenn, Chris, Lisa and Lynn Anne are awesome. Visit twice and everyone knows you by name. Wednesday nights is trivia night. read more

Old school typical New Orleans neighborhood bar. Get atmosphere, large back patio for the smokers and good conversations. Always been a favorite for after work drinks. Trivia is challenging but does not start until 9 and lasts til about 10:30-11ish. There is dart night and it gets crowded so would suggest calling before if you are going out for casual drinks. read more
