Bourbon Street Drinkery

I really enjoyed this place! They have a good selection of beers. Including ghost in the machine! It’s a really good time. The band they had today was like a live jukebox. And they were a lot of fun! So much talent! The only sad part is they had like 30 minutes between sets and that was enough for us to leave. It really kills your buzz. I think they need to learn how to keep the vibe going more consistently. Apart from that, it was probably my favorite place on Bourbon Street.

9/25 - One of the better places for beer on the street, large selection of Draft & bottles. Let you taste a couple of your not sure. NO flights unfortunately but understandably. Live music but just a touch loud ( I know I'm old) but once I'm a while I like to talk with those I'm with.

Was drawn in hearing a Pink Floyd cover and didn’t look back from there. The venue was jumping with everyone right into the band. If only nightlife in Sydney could be this alive!

Stop being here with some friends great job with Live music pretty cool! They have an excellent assortment of local bruises, great atmosphere and the people are really nice

We came here three times in our trip to NO..best bands, great drinks, clean bathrooms, great vibe! Let’s not forget to mention Jackie….so awesome! She was so helpful in not only serving us drinks, but recommended so many places…and not tourist traps! Jackie….thank you!

Stumbled upon this place; the first time in 20 years I have been to New Orleans. Just great, I founded a great spot Excellent Hurricanes, great live music, drinks to go. Sit inside or out. Highly recommend to get the New Orleans experience

Bourbon Street Drinkery – A Lively Bourbon Street Stop with Great Live Music If you're looking for a vibrant and fun stop on Bourbon Street, The Drinkery is a fantastic choice. I visited during the daytime, and the energy was incredible, thanks to the lively live band that kept the atmosphere upbeat and engaging. The combination of great music and a relaxed vibe makes it an ideal spot to take a break from exploring the Quarter and enjoy some quality entertainment. The drink selection is solid, offering a variety of options to suit different tastes. Whether you're after a classic cocktail or something refreshing to cool down, you'll find something to enjoy. Overall, The Drinkery is a great place to stop by if you're looking for good drinks and a lively atmosphere during the day. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to soak in the true Bourbon Street experience with live music and great vibes.

It was Wednesday night arouns 8pm and live concert was on going. They are so good and i loved the local beer. All guest were happy with yelling and dancing. The bartender was very kind and cool. There are outsided table too and i am not sure about second floor. The mostnkey point of enjoying, you should keep on eyes on the guard. He has that mood.

This place just rocks. Definitely the best music on Bourbon St (sad, can't find jazz or blues really anywhere on this street any more). Friendly, knowledgeable mixologists behind the bar. Agreed, a little off-putting that their drink menu is priceless...no, really, no prices!! Prices are actually reasonable, considering it's in the middle of a tourist trap. That said, the main attraction for me were the 2 bands we saw there over a few nights, Southdown Souls early on and then Steve Mignano until 2am. Incredibly gifted guitarists with a solid backline. There's an outdoor patio and a separate bar/balcony upstairs to toss your beads from...or just watch the throng of humanity stumble past.

Pros: solid local beer selection, upstairs has a patio and can be booked for private rooms, many tvs Cons: no in house food though you can order and bring your own

Damn good selection of beer but I really hate looking at menus with no prices. Does that really make you want to buy something there if there's no price? The bartenders act a little offended when you ask a price which I don't get. The good thing is they accept cash or card here and there's always some pretty good Jazz playing here afternoon evening or night. They have an outdoor patio through the back if you want some peace and quiet and very nice clean bathrooms. So for two beers and one cocktail I think we paid about $40 so that's not bad but I would just like to know the prices ahead of time. Don't you?

This was such a fun venue! I loved the live music and dark bar. It's a dive, but that's my preference when it comes to bars. They had a wide variety of drink choices, bit there were no prices on the menu which made it hard to decide. The service was good overall. It's a bummer they only serve bottled water and don't have tap water as an option.

Love music, live music, live music. The number one, two and three reason to stop off. Staff is solid, and the vibe is we feed you drinks for your to listen to music. Steve Mignano was present and was dope. Easy to find, just listen for rockin music the the doorman danced away.

Hands down, best music on Bourbon St. I walked up and down the French Quarter and Drinkery has the best live music in the area. They're always packed, have great performers, and amazing servers. If you're looking for good music, come here! You won't be disappointed!

Live music is good, drinks are okay not much flavor and costs about $20 bucks. Would come back for the live music but not the drinks. I had the saint on the rocks, not much of a pineapple punch I was looking for but does have plenty of liquor in it. My boyfriend had the strawberry lemonade and it likes actual lemonade flavor with artificial strawberry taste. Mind you these are our first drinks of the night.

It was getting late and we (Big Bro, Hubbers and me) decided to stop at one more place for a nightcap. We got pulled here because of the live band playing a song we were all familiar with. This place is deceivingly big! One would expect its space ending at the bar, but nope... there's a whole foyer in the back if your ears need a bit of rest. Bathrooms are located back there, too (and it's one of the cleaner bar bathrooms I've been to compared to the many bars I hit while in NOLA.) Drinks are fairly priced and they are generous with the amount of alcohol in my cocktails! Bartender was nice, so with the bouncer. We liked it here so much we came back once more a couple of days later. Good times! Will be back!

This was the perfect spot for live music. The band was amazing. The main singer had an incredible voice for a bar band. The drinks were quick & tasty ( a little pricey) and the bouncer at the door was friendly & knowledgeable about everything. Even hooked us up with free tix to another place in the area for afterwards. The vibe here was super fun. Best chill spot we found on our 3 day visit -- please check it out !

This was an amazing establishment. They had a live girl band who were super interactive with the clients. Restroom was clean! Establishment was clean! If you love strawberries, you need to try their strawberry and vodka drink amazing!! It is a little pricey, but definitely worth the experience. They also had an upstairs area we did not go. We stayed downstairs due to the live band. there was a waitress that would wait on your table if you sat down. Service was good.

Good music, the drinks are a little watered down (popular place on Bourbon street), the great service and a fun place to be with lots of people.

Typical Bourbon Street spot but better than most. This spot beckons both locals and tourists alike with good times and a great atmosphere. The band (forgot their name) was the highlight for sure they played all the hits and provided a great time of entertainment. Whether you're perched at the bar or lounging on the spacious outdoor patio, you'll find yourself swept up in the energy of the crowd. The décor exudes a rustic charm, with exposed brick walls adorned with vintage memorabilia, creating a cozy yet eclectic ambiance. They have a great tap beer selection with choices for all pallets. The mixed drinks were not so good to the point that me and my party decided to stick to beer. The staff was attentive and did keep the beers flowing. Overall if you are hanging out, Bourbon Street Drinkery is a great stop and will give you a good time while you are there. With its lively atmosphere, great beer selection, and warm hospitality, it's a nice place to hang out with friends.

Vibes are amazing! This bar is very cool and the food looks great. We stopped by for a drink before dinner. My husband got a whiskey diet and liked it a lot. I got the espresso martini and it was ok. Would definitely add cream and not the coffee crumb topper as pictured. Looking forward to coming back!

Great place to drink local crafts when on Bourbon Street. Good beer, good drinks and good music. You are definitely going to pay Bourbon St prices but worth the price.

This is a great place on Bourbon St. to stop for a drink. Now that my favorite New Orleans performer, Justin Donovan, has a daily set, its even better. Everytime I'm here, I let the waitress choose my cocktail(s) and I'm always happy. This time it was The Saint. The bar is dark and casual and the live music make it the perfect New Orleans moment!

I liked the space, it's convenient on Bourbon St. too. The draft list was okay. I came for a particular beer and was surprised by the draft process when I cashed out. I had the same beer an hour earlier in the French Quarter and paid $4 less than here. They adhere to a big pet peeve of mine, no pricing on their drink menus. They had a nice performer that sang as I finished my drink. The venue had three people when I entered and I was the only one when I left.

My friends and I stopped in here for a couple drinks a couple months ago while we were in NO and it was a pretty cool bar. When we walked in, there was a guy playing piano and singing. I'm not a fan of live music at a bar but he was really good and he tickled them ivory's really nice. They have a great selection of local brews. I tried a couple and they were really good. The service both upstairs and downstairs were fast. The upstairs has a balcony over Bourbon Street so it was fun to be up there for an hour or so and people watch. All in all, this was one of our favorite Bourbon Street bars and we went there a couple times. If I'm on Bourbon Street again, I'd happily go back.

My favorite spot on the Bourbon strip--hands down! Bourbon Street Drinkery has everything you want in a French Quarter bar: strong drinks, great music, and the perfect people-watching balcony. The bartenders are super friendly and quick (which is rare on Bourbon), and the vibe is just right--not too wild, not too chill. It's the perfect place to post up with a drink and take in the energy of the street below. Whether you're bar-hopping or looking for a go-to hangout, this place never disappoints. Definitely a must-stop whenever I'm in NOLA!

Open until 2am great drinks had the Bloody Mary it was delicious. NOLA knows how to make a great Bloody Mary.

Last night in NOLA, and I walked by this place twice; first time the music smacked me on the street in front. Live Rock and Blues band (3 piece fronted by Steve Mignano) and I stood there for 5 full minutes grooving on the side walk. Second time, I had to stop in cuz I got a quarter of a way down the road and literally got lassoed by the power of their pocket. Can't tell you anything else about this place, other than they have possibly the best live music on Bourbon!

No food just drinks. Live band was hella loud but great musicians nonetheless. The AC was amazing on a humid day. I asked the bar keep did they have a certain beer, she says no then I looked up at the digital screen and saw they had it, I was almost about to cry because I walked 35 minutes to try this beer . Great vibes great beers, cheers

Bourbon Street Drinkery is everything that's wrong with the tourist-trap bar scene in New Orleans. I walked in looking to enjoy the music and grab a drink, but apparently expecting basic human decency was asking too much. After ordering, I asked for a simple glass of tap water--you know, the free, legally required kind most bars don't blink at. Instead, the staff insisted I buy a bottle of water. When I politely declined and asked again for regular tap water, I was met with condescension and an ultimatum: pay for the bottled water or leave. When I held my ground--because I wasn't about to be gouged for basic hydration--I was kicked out. Literally shown the door for refusing to pay for something that should be offered as a courtesy. I wasn't drunk, belligerent, or causing a scene--I just didn't want to be extorted for a bottle of water. The staff acted like customer service was beneath them, and management clearly supports price-gouging over hospitality. In a city known for generosity and warmth, Bourbon Street Drinkery is a cold, overpriced disappointment. Do yourself a favor--there are countless better bars on Bourbon Street. This one isn't worth your time, money, or thirst.

Came here for live music and drinks. This place did not disappoint. Took to a while to get a waiter. Great indoor outdoor setup and the staff was great once we got their attention. Live band was a great way to kickoff the birthday shenanigans

TERRIBLE!! Go some where else. Staff Elena was so rude and is a complete liar. We just purchased a new drink, went for a dance. When we came back, Elena had thrown it away. She was clearly the only waitress in our area and the bar was not crowded. Elena had a bad attitude from the time we walked in. Who needs service like that when there are hundreds of bars in the area that would be happy to have your service. I'm giving this post a 1 star because the music was good.

Ambiance, service, and drinks were excellent! And always a plus the restrooms were nice and clean.

I would NOT reccomend this bar at all. Music was good, however the staff ( Elena ) was extremely RUDE. Went for a dance, when I came back Elena had thrown away my brand new drink. Then lied and said she didn't when clearly she was the only waitress in our area. I'm giving it a 1 star because the music was pretty good. Also like the gentleman at the the front door. Very professional and friendly. Wish I had gotten his name

They don't provide food. The service was good even though they were very busy. The ambiance was cool. It's a modern style pub. They had indoor and outdoor seating and they had live music while I was there.

All I wanted on this trip to New Orleans was a glass of bourbon neat on Bourbon Street, and I finally made it happen. The first time I visited back in 2016, I was all about wine and beer--not whiskey. Fast forward eight years, and my appreciation for the bourbon craft has grown immensely. Sitting there with something special in hand, on such an iconic street, felt like the perfect full-circle moment. Cheers to that!

Only place I went to all three days I was here because they had the best music every day. Good acoustics too. Nice staff.

Awesome live music and good bar service! Drink prices are fair. Good beer selection. Bathrooms are clean.

After being walked past several times, I asked if I could place an order. I was treated like an inconvenience, and never revisited. The live music was good, that's the only reason I'm giving more than 1 star.

Drinks are always amazing, specially when you get a good server ! live music starts at noon every day !

Once a beautiful three-story home is now an\ successful event venue that serves an excellent old fashioned! If booze isn't your preference, they have well over 20 craft beers to choose from. If sitting outside is your preference, they have plenty of comfortable seating in the private courtyard out back. From what I can tell, they take pride in what they do and on a street that serves plenty of mediocre drinks, you won't find anything mediocre here. Cheers!

I love the drinks here. The bartender made them just right they weren't sweet alcohol wasn't too much. It was amazing to just sit there and listen to live music.

Drinks are over priced for the pour. Good atmosphere but way too expensive . My Sazerac looks like a shot of rye. $70 For 4 drinks. Nope. Not for this place.

Only place that seemed interesting to stop in for music that didn't have drunk or high people loitering around it. Great music! They could add some non alcoholic options besides O'Doul's. Heineken's 0 option is good. Or, add some Abita root beer or other Abita colas.

Drinks way over priced for pre-made drinks that did not even taste like they had alcohol. Watch our for the word infused as it means the fruit was soaked in alcohol but nothing more added. Band was lame as well and then came around with a bucket expecting people to tip them by putting them on the spot. Walked out after my first drink.

One of the nicer nightclubs on Bourbon St. They waive the cover if you buy drinks. That keeps the club less crowded than others. Second floor has lots of nice furniture, and of course a big balcony, perfect to enjoy the passing by crowd on Bourbon st, and participate in the tradition of throwing beads. Music is load, drinks are decently priced and not watered down like other nearby places.

Bourbon street drinkery I had beer I had a Peanut butter Milk Porter and I had Holy Roller Ipa New Orleans La. It was live music the musician name is Sawana Rice I tipped she was good.The bartender name is Jeff he is Filipino like apparently there is not much Filipino people in New Orleans. It's going to be Thanksgiving so there might not be much open.Security was cool.

Great local music 2pm to 2 am and friendly bar staff. Large on tap menu of beers, ales, and cocktails. I enjoyed the blood orange margaritas on tap and a local sour ale. Upscale for bourbon street!

I only had their beer so cannot comment on the food. Loved the vibe, atmosphere, service and the variety!

Bar is nice. Live music is a plus. $15-20 drinks (straight pours) on bourbon on a Sunday night is a little crazy.

I was there 11/23/24 and the band was great! They seemed to be a cover band taking requests and killing it! All four members were great musicians and we really enjoyed the atmosphere. Great beer selection, too.

Love the vibe of this place.... red brick interior walls and dark wood bar tables.. group seating and live music... wait staff is very friendly and the drinks are potent...

Popped in to one of our favorites when in New Orleans. You can always expect great music , tasty drinks and phenomenal staff . This is a must stop in New Orleans for us . Seating is available at the front bar where there's a live band , upstairs where you can find another bar and seating with couches and recliners as well as balcony seating where you can throw beads , or just people watch . Check em for sure on your next visit!

$17 a drink?! Are you out of your mind?! Our fault for not asking. Drinks aren't great, several are served from the gun, like a college bar. One and done. Will never go back.

Cold beer, free music every day including afternoons. Comfortable setting with great staff.

Great service. Bloody Mary and old fashioned were on point. Live music sets a great mood. Fun joint.

Ambiance was nice with old school classic rock to new age indie rock. The drinks are wildly priced. $17 for a hurricane?! Service was quick and bar tenders were alert to new people coming to the bar.
