The iconic cafe known for chicory coffee and beignets has been open since 1862 and is open 24 hours a day. There's a line for takeout and oftentimes a line for a table, but here's a local tip - if you see an empty table, grab it! There's no official line so get in where you can.

One of the best bars in the city - pick out your bottle of wine and your cheeses from the market, then venture out to find a table on their large patio. Enjoy live music under the oaks, your fabulous cheese plate, and grab bites and cocktails from the bar upstairs if you need a little extra!

Live Music

If you're looking for Jazz, look no further. You can catch any of the multiple nightly shows (lines begin a little early) and here's a tip - the pillows at the front of the venue are seats and frequently not taken, so sneak right up front!

If you're here during Mardi Gras, prepare to walk!

We are centrally located Uptown and the majority of parades pass close by, either on Napoleon or St. Charles - but this also means road closures. We are "in the box" so be prepared to stay close, walk a long way, or be stuck in traffic while you figure out which roadways are still open!

Our summer lasts 8 months...

Don't forget some breathable clothes and your water bottle. And don't worry, we're all sweating too
