Fangria in a blood bag was actually very tasty and the Brie appetizer & shrimp & grits were yummy - However the rest of the menu and decor was a little disappointing. The only other vampire themed items I saw were a few cheap Halloween things placed around the hostess table & bar. I thought there would be more effort put into making the place more sinister or fun. Food and drinks were good but I wouldn't go out of my way if going for the thrill of it. read more

Vampire Cafe - Cafes Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Came to the Vampire Cafe on a Wednesday afternoon around 2pm. == FOOD == Ill be honest, my brother and I went for the blood bags since we saw so many videos of it on Tiktok. My brother got the Fangria Blood Bag, while I got the Pomegranate Lemonade Blood Bag. Super gimmicky, but worth the pictures. For food, my brother got the filet (medium rare) and I got the Vampire Burger (medium rare). There wasn't anything special with the food, seemed like anything I could get at a fancy dinner place. == SERVICE == It's a pretty small cafe, with only about 10-12 tables inside. There were tables outside too, but it was raining and we didn't want to sit outside. Service was pretty fast for us, but there was a lone traveler who waited to order for 15 minutes. == AMBIANCE == I kinda wish I visited the cafe at night, because the ambiance during the morning was pretty mid. While the inside decoration was nice, I feel like going at night would've enhanced it. The tables and chairs were very pretty. read more

The food and service were okay. You gotta check out the IV blood bags if you're visiting. read more

We wanted to grab some food before our scheduled tour. We found this spot, loved the vibe & decor. We were seated right away but the wait for food was going to be over our time limit per the server so he said we can have the waters he brought to our table. We ordered some drinks to go which was delicious & fun. Hope you check them out next time because the menu looked amazing, but they get all the stars for being so great! read more

If you are not eating, you cannot sit at a table. Barnis for drinks only. There were no seats open at the bar. No problem. Grabbed a drink to walk around. While the blood drinks were a touristy thing .. they were actually good. The mojito was pretty lame ... not a good rum!!! read more

A must-visit experience for anyone into the dark side when visiting New Orleans, this was my second stop in, and it was another success. From the awesome decor to the on-point music, it has a vibe that I am there for. The drinks are excellent, featuring a variety of vampire-themed wines and other cocktails. I did a wine tasting flight the first time around, and on my second stop, I was feeling a Bloody Mary, so I did their Bloodiest Mary, which was a spicy one that was truly excellent. It came with a lot of pickled veggies on top, which is always a win for me. For food, both times I have tried the roasted elephant garlic and must recommend it. For my second visit, I had the Caesar, which is unique because instead of being on lettuce, the greenery is entirely shredded Brussels sprouts. I loved that, but I guess some people are put off, as the server specifically had to warn me. It is just a fun place with a definite vibe, and I feel like I will always make a stop when in town. read more

One of my top 3 reasonably priced date night/girls night out spots that's atypical of the white table cloth ones in the quarter. From the decor to the cocktails and food, if you're wanting a unique New Orleans experience, you won't be disappointed. The service is exceptional and the drinks are strong and tasty. There's something on the menu for everyone. The haunted history of the building definitely adds to the ambiance--make sure to take a trip up to the attic for some surprises, especially during Halloween! read more

We had a wonderful time at the vampire cafe! Luka (or luca) was the best vampire ever and gave fantastic recommendations!! We drank B-, O-, and two chocolate martinis recommended by our fantastic vampire server. The food was great as well, between the smoked gator appetizer and the Dracula burger was cooked to perfection!! We are locals and will definitely be returning, they even gave us vampire bite temporary tats and a card for a speakeasy on bourbon! read more

We only had a drink and desert so I cannot speak to the food, but what a fun ambiance and concept. Located in the French Quarter, if you are a fan of the dark and mysterious this place will please you. The theme is spot on and the prices are reasonable (especially for their location) The desert was very good too. Also if you are a fan of hidden speakeasy's be sure to ask them about finding one at the conclusion of your meal read more

Service was not great. Our waitress was very rushed and did not want to answer questions. They were out of blood bags which is why we went and out of the dinner one of us was going to order and we were seated at 6:30pm. What we did eat was very good though. read more

We walked over after a day in the WWII museum. This place is fun! I love the theme and decoration. The food was delicious! We got the signature blood bag sangria. I had the bbq crab claws and the sauce was out of this world so delicious! My friend got the vegetable curry and she loved it as well. My husband got the deviled eggs and the gumbo he devoured both! We shared the baked Brie at the table, it was also wonderful. Overall we had a fun lunch here! The service was speedy and attentive. It is worth a visit if you're into the theme! read more

A hidden speakeasy well worth the search! You will need to get a code during the day to make it in at night. The decor, drinks, and attention to detail is outstanding. I've been to many places touring as a "speakeasy" but this truly gave the experience. Well worth a visit, and remember to look at the walls for monsters! read more

Okay, so to be honest. It was raining and we were cold so we stopped in. We didn't expect much and we don't even like grits... but the heavenly concoction of sauces in the shrimp and grits is to die for. I would order this again and again. Try it for yourself! read more

Ambiance: Historic & moody/dark/spooky themed bar in the French Quarter with a Vampire theme that serves amazing food & drinks! We had the best time sitting at the bar! Our bartender was super friendly & a conversationist with great drink recommendations. This is the perfect spot for a pre-ghost tour cocktail, date night, themed outing, or just grabbing a cocktail. The shrimp & grits were delicious - the sauce was almost like a braised beef or teriyaki style & super unique! You have to get the blood bags for the fun & photos! Lots of fun themed cocktails, wine, beers, & N.A. options. Highly recommend for a fun experience for anyone who likes spooky things! read more

Located in The French Quarters, this small cafe is vampire themed and has a unique ambiance. I wanted to try alligator for the first time but they were out so I ordered a vampire burger which was good. Their chocolate cake is super good and rich in flavor. The highlight was obviously the blood bags and we got the virgin versions which was pomegranate & lemonade. Definitely a little touristy and it was a fun experience. Our server was super friendly and helpful. We went in on a Friday afternoon and it wasn't that busy. They automatically apply a 20% gratuity fee since it's summer so just a heads up. The restaurant is pretty small and our stroller barely fit. They do not offer high chairs for small kids, by the way. There is some outdoor seating but it gets really hot and humid during this time. If you're into touristy things, this is a must to visit in NOLA. read more

Busy place. We were at the bar but it still took the two bar attendants time to get our order. Since we were only there for the vampire speakeasy ticket and password we just ordered the blood bag. It came in two flavors. One sangria and the other vodka with cranberry juice. Both were more warm than they should be. Disappointing. You have to ask for the ticket and password to the speakeasy. It's located in the back of Fritzels European Jazz club. But by the time we got there, the speakeasy was at capacity that they could let in and we discovered they had a $20 cover. We decided to spend our money elsewhere. The Vampire Cafe has some charm for a goth setting. The Vampire speakeasy was a disappointment. We were not told about the mandatory 20% gratuity. That was shocking given the speed of the wait staff. read more

Great staff and a beautiful interior! We stopped in just for a drink to say we had one at the Vampire Cafe. Both of our drinks were excellent. I got the blood bag, Vampire Vodka Pomegranate Lemonade. It was great, I probably drank the whole thing in 5 minutes. My boyfriend got the B+ and loved it as well. The bartenders were great. We really weren't hungry to get food but enjoyed just popping in for a quick drink. All the food around us looked great though. The interior is what's fabulous here. The decor even at the bar is beautiful. The ceilings are gorgeous. Make sure to take a minute and look around while you're here! read more

The atmosphere was super nice, very much so giving interview with a vampire. The waiter was quick and helpful. The food was seasoned and cooked well for the most part, it was a bit pricey for what you receive, I had the salmon over potatoes, which were great, but the green beans on the side came to us hard, cold and bland. The star of the show for us was the blood bags! They tasted great and were really fun to experience read more

Vampire Cafe - Blood bag - Cafes Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Was really disappointed in this place. We knew it was more of a tourist trap but didn't expect it to be as terrible as it was. Ordered off the blood bag drink menu, were told they would take a moment as they had to refill the blood bags, drinks took a while and still didn't come in the bags. Also ordered coffee and that came out cold like it had been sitting for hours, the server asked how the coffee was and then proceeded to tell us that the place across the street had better coffee. We all ordered burgers, one girl in our group got the Dracula while the rest of us got the vampire burger. I added the bacon jam to mine. Burgers come out, I get the right one, a vampire with jam added, while the other girl who order the Dracula gets a vampire. We let the server know she got the wrong burger and I was told I took her burger but that it was also the kitchens fault, even though I got what I ordered. Server goes back to get to right food out in and when it finally came out it was cold, not lukewarm COLD. After the meal decided to go to the bathroom before walking more around the quarter and there's no water pressure at all, like the sink is just dripping. $49 for a drink and a mediocre burger at best, literally had a better burger at McDonalds on the way home. Maybe it was the day and time we went but I wouldn't recommend this place or bother giving it a second chance. read more

The Vampire Cafe is a cute little spot with inside and outside sidewalk seating. It has a chic style, revolving around vampires, but tastefully done. The service was great. The staff get you everything that you need and check in frequently. The food was good. There is a small array of food. We both got the Vampire burger. Slightly tangy, and served with a side of home made chips. We ordered the B- and A+ drinks which were good. You can also order cocktails in blood bags as well for the full experience. read more

It was packed mostly with people just wanting to get the "famous" blood bags. They told us that it would be a 30-45 minute wait just to take one to go. They suggested going to their sister location Vampire Apothecary, so that's where we ended up going. Also, their door entrance is very small AND the door kept getting locked making a few people, including myself, have to fidget with the door to bring the lock out from the ground. read more

Visiting the French Quarter with two coworkers in tow, neither of whom had been to NO before. We were welcomed and sat at the bar and had Zach as our bartender. He was so knowledgeable as well as hilarious that he really made our whole night. The burgers were also some of the best I've ever eaten. The restaurant itself is cozy but fun. You definitely know you're not in a typical restaurant. While the place was full, we found the bar to be most accommodating. Would definitely recommend. Ask for Zach! read more

Omg I l went three times to this place during my vacation. The BEST Spicy Margaritas that I have ever had in my life. Breakfast was amazing the avocado toast and my husband got the bacon eggs and muffin. We came back for late lunch mussels were incredible and this appetizer trio of alligator ,shrimp and something else were so much flavor . It was a great experience also the drinks on the blood bags but now my kind of drinks . Staff was amazing we felt very comfortable and server was friendly and recommended different things and places to go in the city. read more

Because I love all things Vampire I was really looking forward to trying this place but was very disappointed. It really lacks the vampire theme, the staff is not friendly or attentive and they are disorganized. I told the waitress the drink I wanted and said in the blood bag, one of the other servers brings me the drink in a cup. I say I am sorry I thought this came in a blood bag, he says very dry no only xyz comes in the blood bag and walks away. Then we had to ask 3 times about our appetizer as it seems they forgot about us. About 40 Mins later they finally bring it out and no apology for the wait Save your time and money, with all the cool things in orleans and see this place is def skip able. read more

We stopped by the Vampire Café in New Orleans for brunch, fulfilling my wife's wish after my morning adventure standing in line for merch. On the way, I had a great chat with an Uber driver from upstate New York who works for an educational foundation and drives Uber to make ends meet--a nice unexpected connection. When I arrived, I was lucky to get a seat quickly since the place is small and often has a bit of a wait. I wasted no time and ordered a Cabernet Sauvignon and chicken and waffles. The dish was so fresh it felt like they sourced the chicken from the alley out back--funny, but true! It was absolutely delicious and hit the spot. Great vibes, great food, and a memorable brunch experience. If you're in New Orleans, it's worth a visit! read more
