The 8 Best Bars In The French Quarter 2024

"Yes, this bar is built into an actual moving carousel inside the Hotel Monteleone (and yes, it’s a little gimmicky). That said, it’s still a fun place to grab a drink. At all hours of the day, you’ll find a mix of tourists draped in beads and hotel guests pre- and post-gaming weddings. You might not notice the bar spinning at first, but once you get seated at one of the stools, you'll definitely feel the slow, constant movement." - carlo mantuano, garrett snyder, zella palmer
