Celebrate Pride at New Orleans Gay Bars, LGBTQ-Owned Restaurants, and Queer-Friendly Spaces | Eater New Orleans
"Located on the more residential end of the French Quarter, the Golden Lantern might seem like an easy-going, neighborhood dive bar at first — it is. However, come Mardi Gras Day and Southern Decadence, the spot becomes ground zero for all the action. The intimate cash-only bar is best known for its happy hour(s) from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., with its trademark veggie-packed bloody mary served in a “Lantern Trash” go-cup, and weekend drag shows. There’s a must-have Lantern Trash shirt, too." - Beth D’Addono
