Nate the bartender was so nice and helpful. Offered fantastic choices! Wings were fabulous and perfect. Love the music, true jazz music down on bourbon st! I will be back again and hope Nate is here! read more

3.5 stars. The ambience and the music were great and we were tempted to walk in while strolling on the bourbon street. There was a big gap in the sets ( around 45 mins) but the new band that started was awesome. The food however was just passable. My drink of Strawberry basil was too sweet for my taste. Chicken sandwich was good, haphazardly presented albeit and the seafood gumbo was a bit much salty. The drink Pimm's cup was amazing though. Service was polite and prompt. read more

This is a great spot to stop in and listen to some awesome live music! A nice chill place to come in right off Bourbon Street. We listened to a band playing some really good jazz covers; awesome! Service was friendly. The doorman was awesome! He had some crazy stories about the storms in the area and had been through a lot. Definitely take some time to talk with the staff; they have some amazing stories. read more

Tipsy Trumpet - Jazz Band. - Bars Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Great place, great service, delicious food and great live music! We loved the red beans and rice! Of all the NOLA red beans and rice, Tipsy Trumpet had the best flavor - warm, a little spicy and super delicious. It's hard not to sample a little of everything...he jambalaya was yummy, too! The Blackened Shrimp Po Boy was full of flavor and we tried the cajun fries, which the delicious crawfish mushroom cream sauce. We don't love mushrooms, so we ordered it on the side, but we were thrilled that it was just big pieces of mushroom, making our family very happy! It was creamy and delicious! We enjoyed amazing service, with refills flowing freely on Diet Coke and our beer, too! We even saved some room for dessert - the New Orleans Bread Pudding with praline rum sauce was amazing...and don't miss the Kentucky Bourbon Pecan Pie, served warm - the best! read more

Stumbled upon this place walking through Bourbon street. The live music caught our ears so we came in for a drink. The place was nice and wherever you sat you had a good view of the stage. The band played a few popular songs and drinks were reasonably priced with fast service at the bar. read more

After a long day we wanted to get a little tipsy, so we stumbled into the Tipsy Trumpet. I tend to avoid eateries on Bourbon Street, but mom and I saw crab cakes on the menu, so we decided to try them. The bartender was friendly and took our order - Louisiana Crab Cake (appetizer) and a side of fries. Of course, we needed some libations, so we requested a Strawberry Basil and Bourbon St Lemonade. Soon after our arrival, lighting appeared in the sky and the rain came pouring down. Typical of the South. We were glad to already be indoors because we didn't have an umbrella. The food was fresh and came out quickly. The Louisiana Crab Cake was topped with a Crawfish Mushroom Cream Sauce. The crab cake had a nice consistency and the sauce was tasty. The fries were addictive and delicious! There was a live band playing and they were entertaining. We enjoyed the music while waiting out the storm. The drinks were a bit sweet and light on the alcohol, so once the rain stopped we took them home (which was a few blocks away) and added some more vodka. I would come back for the live music, a nibble, and a straight up vodka soda. read more

We were on the hunt for a shrimp Poboy and was recommended by our friends to come here. We sat at a high top table in the front of the restaurants so we're able to people watch but also still hear the amazing live music upfront. I just ordered an iced tea. My husband ordered a cocktail and we ended up just sharing a Poboy with a side of fries. I wasn't very impressed with the sandwich. It was OK, but it was definitely not something I would order again. If you need something to fill you up and soak up the alcohol give it a try you would probably have a different opinion over mine. The atmosphere is just what you would expect in New Orleans, very festive and the service was great. The live music was definitely a plus and would suggest coming here to get the full experience but maybe order something else. read more

We were a large party of 9. The waiter had a fabulous memory. He wrote nothing down and our order was spot on. However, it took a while to get the food and forever after that to get a check. Good thing we asked for a pitcher of water at the start. Our table had a few drinks, but it would have been impossible to get refills. Overall, the food was delicious, the music a bit loud and the service a bit slow. If you're not in a hurry and you don't want to talk, give this pace a try. read more

The 4-piece band was great. Sax, piano, bass and drums. Had drinks and enjoyed the band. No food, but looked like good options are available. Service was good, other than a period at the end when we were trying to get our bill so we could get to dinner. Took about 15 minutes to locate our server, otherwise it would have been 5/5 rating. read more

Quick and easy spot to grab a few drinks while you may get the chance to hear a band perform. Unlike the pure jazz establishments, it was not as busy and didn't require a cover charge. There's seating around the bar and in the courtyard for dinner. We just stopped by for a quick drink and to hear a band. Feels good sitting around the bar with all the doors and windows opened. Also love the use of the mini trumpets as part of the lighting. read more

We had friends in town so we were doing the tourist troll on Bourbon. The music we heard coming from the Tipsy Trumpet caught our eye and we decided to go inside. We only ordered drinks but the service was fabulous! I loved that they served mocktails for our non drinking friends. The band was tons of fun and we stayed until their set was over. The place was not crowded but definitely a hit with the people that kept coming in. Great seating, lighting, space etc. Oh, and kids are welcome. Lol. I'd come back. read more

I went to Tipsy Trumpet and had a great time! I ordered a sazerac and then a mojito. Jaylin made the drinks super tasty. The staff is very nice and friendly. I enjoyed the jazz band that was playing. The place is clean and had plenty of seating. The art and paintings are amazing and gives a cool and colorful vibe. I didn't order any food but menu had lots of options. read more

This place had a great vibe. Live music and they were jammin. The food came out fast. I had the special which was a redfish that was top with a crawfish étouffée. The flavor!! It was soo good I could have licked the plate. My friend on the other hand ordered the catfish po boi and was not impressed. The fish was lacking flavor and it was only like on little piece. He did talk to the server who did recommend this to him and she took care of it. But still the next piece was just a little bit better. I would still recommend this place but stay away from the po boi. read more

The food was honestly very good, a bit pricey but expected for the area. Isaiah however was determined to make our experience as unenjoyable as possible. one of us ordered the side of etoufee, and he brought us a full portion. Said "we don't do the small ones anymore" despite it being on the menu. the manager fixed this, and we of course paid for the side price listed. Isaiah was rude from the get go, never offered us any drinks, never offered us dessert, and brought our check about 15 seconds after the meals were delivered and said "whenever you're ready" and left, without returning. (it's Father's Day, cmon man) read more

I would've given this place 4 stars because the live music was great and Mariah, our waitress was attentive. Food was not bad. We had ordered 3 Corona, Sunrise mocktail, spinach artichoke, blackened shrimp po boy, and bread pudding. 3 h o u r s later....I had to run to the toilet. It was so bad, I puked through my mouth and nose (which I didn't know that could happen). I took a few Pepto Bismol twice throught the night. I can still taste the after taste of the spinach artichoke and tortilla chips. When I first saw it, I knew it wasnt freshly made but it tasted alright in the beginning. When I reached the bottom, it tasted repulsive so I stopped. My friend had the po boy and he said that he felt uneasy last night too. Could all the food had problems? The only thing we both ate was tortilla chips, bread pudding, and the drinks. After reading some poor reviews from this restaurant, I wonder if we got overcharged too. Everything added up to $88 before tax but our total is over 100. read more

Food was awesome! We had the Taste of New Orleans trio -jambalaya, red beans and rice, shrimp etouffee, a bowl of gumbo and crab cake with crawfish mushroom cream. We were not disappointed. The alcohol drinks were light. Service was good our server was nice. We chose to sit in the patio in the back because the have live music which was great, but we wanted to be able to hear each other talk. We highly recommend Tipsy Trumpet. read more

The live music here is amazing, and it is a casual spot that you can go to hang out with friends and have a bite to eat. Our server seemed a bit overwhelmed and unhappy but she didn't take whatever was on her mind out on us, it was more of a passing observation. We didn't order a meal here but had a couple of drinks and beignet fries with strawberry sauce, which was pretty good. Would be back for the music and to try actual food. read more

What a great spot. Came in here for the live band and a few drinks. NATE was amazing. So personable, made us one of his signature Moscow Mules. The orange vodka substitute Moscow Mule was so perfect. He concocted exactly what we desired and got! We will definitely come back to see NATE!!! read more

We chose this spot because it was walking distance from the Bourbon Hotel where we stayed. The LIVE music is what brought us in and decide to grab something to eat. Instead of sitting in the front we opted for the patio, nice and chill but can still hear the music. For the food, we ordered the wings and fries, jambalaya, fish and shrimp, side of mashed potatoes. Top favorite was the lemon pepper wings! They were fried so good but still juicy on the inside. We even ordered some to go! Jambalaya was my second favorite...good seasoning, nice and flavorful. Mashed potatoes were my third favorite....whipped up nice, good taste, nice garnish. Calvin was the cook that night...and he did his thing! We also had a nice waitress, Erica. The live band was so good! They did a mix of rock/pop to start but then transitioned to some smooth R&B....and topped it off with Tennessee Whiskey! There was a guy on drums, guy on the guitar, girl on the piano and I think a 4th guy. Everybody could sing and play an instrument. They were so good! There was also another band with 3 guys that came up afterwards. We didn't catch their set but heard them when we walked past later and they were just as good. Overall, Tipsy Trumpet is a great place for good food and live music. So much so that we came back the next day! lol! Food was just as good...no live music but the music they played from the speakers was good too! Y'all go check out the Tipsy Trumpet! You won't regret it. One last note...we didn't get a drink last night but today Kelsey fixed us a Green Tea shot and it was goooddd! One more last note...Sam just got on the piano...and I'm loving it already! read more

An oasis in the crazy party of Bourbon Street! Stopped in here on a recent trip to New Orleans and was delighted to find a hidden gem. The music from the house band, Pebbletree, is fantastic and the staff is friendly and fast. We grabbed some cocktails and some snacks while we were here and enjoyed everything. In particular, I got the Gator Kickers and they were pretty good and the remoulade sauce was great. Definitely a great place to stop on your journey down Bourbon Street, grab a few drinks and listen to some spectacular music! read more

Great jazz, but the drink I got-bourbon and sprite was almost clear. Did the put they actually put alcohol in my drink??

Good food, great service, and expectedly enjoyable New Orleans ambiance! The crab cakes were so tasty but the highlight was the mustard greens read more

Krystal and Zach were absolutely amazing! Will definitely be back! Thank you for taking care of us during Mardi Gras.

The most awful waitress/bartender--zero stars for her rudeness and obnoxiousness. She shamed us for not buying more alcohol, after we already bought two rounds. With snooty attitude, she informed us that we are taking up valuable bar space and unless we keep purchasing more drinks, we should vacate the space. There's plenty of BETTER bars all around the area--take your business where it's appreciated. Do not waste your time and money here. read more

This was my first stop once arriving in new Orleans. Nice outdoor patio with plants and lighting. I was seated very quick. The service was a little slow (due to being short staffed on Mother's Day). But Baby this catfish was nothing but the truth, well seasoned, coating was nice and crispy. It didn't fall off once bitten into. Just pure greatness. Gumbo was okay. read more

My experience was great. While visiting New Orleans with my husband in November '24 we were there 3 times. Our bartender Dareyon surprised and shocked me in a good way when she wrote words of congratulations on the receipt in our mother language. And they were words of love. And... it happened on our 18th anniversary. I couldn't believe it! The food was good, drinks were fine as well. Overall, highly recommend. But I would love to hear more jazz/instrumental covers of popular songs like we did on the first night - Nov 12th. On other two nights the band was just having a jam session. Which I didn't like that much. read more
