The 10 Best Bars In The French Quarter 2024 - New Orleans - The Infatuation

"It’s impossible to have a bad time at Chandelier Bar. Maybe it’s all the marble, crystal, and gold hardware that makes us feel fancy, or the fact that the bartenders and servers are just extraordinarily nice. It’s really the cognac drinks that keep us coming back, though, like the refreshing and raspberry-loaded Roffignac. It’s also worth trying their martini, which is served in a glass created with the same crystal used for the enormous chandelier that the bar’s named for. You could make a full meal out of the complimentary housemade potato chips (they’re that good), but all of the food is excellent—try the beignets, spicy cracklins, and warm, salted chocolate and caramel chip cookies." - carlo mantuano, megan braden perry, garrett snyder, zella palmer
