Friend

There are no friends at this store. I’m extremely disappointed with my experience at this store. I purchased an expensive pair of pants while visiting New Orleans for Labor Day weekend. The pants were perfect for an upcoming trip. Somehow, the salesperson put the wrong size pants in the bag during checkout. When I realized the mistake back home in Los Angeles, I tried repeatedly to contact the store for an exchange. After several unanswered phone calls, numerous voicemails, an email, and even a direct message on Instagram; I never received so much as a response. I’ve had better customer service experiences at Walmart. The complete lack of communication and service is unacceptable, especially for the average price of the clothing in the store. It’s frustrating to feel completely ignored after spending money with this business. I would strongly caution anyone considering shopping here—they clearly don’t value their past customers or care about meeting new ones. Getting someone to pick up the phone at the store requires an executive order. Very disappointing overall. Edited with an update: I received a refund for the wrong sized pants I was given. Thank you to Parker, the owner. I’m sad I wasn’t able to wear the pants but at least it didn’t cost me money after all.

Stumbled upon Friends while exploring near our hotel, and I’m so glad we did! The store has such a curated selection of men’s clothing – you can tell the owner has an eye for quality and style. My husband found some pieces he absolutely loves, and I couldn’t resist getting a beautiful embroidered bucket hat for myself. Highly recommend checking this place out if you’re visiting NOLA!

It is becoming a tradition to visit Friend when I’m visiting NOLA. Always walk out with some amazing new threads that are completely unique and fun. They keep the looks fresh and rotate regularly. Looking forward to my next visit!

Impressive selection of thoughtfully curated clothes. I found several shirts and shorts that I live in. There’s something for everyone. And, impeccable service to the cool, funky vibe.

Fantastic store with stylish finds from local vendors and New York. Most stylish spot for men’s clothes in NOLA! Highly recommend

I love the inventory in the store and have been a return customer several times on my New Orleans visits

Really nice selection of stuff. Noah was super helpful picking stuff out and giving advice to someone who is clueless about how to dress.

I had a great time to say it was my first time at rooftop pool party private

The clothes are awesome but the sales guy was awful. Horrible attitude, didn't want to help us at all; not sure why, he was nice to others....

A cool, upscale and chic men's clothing store...everything here is unique from up and coming designers and not the typical stuff you'd find at Gap or Macy's. I'd suggest this for guys who really want to stand out from the crowd and appreciate unique, quality items...the price point is a bit high, but you have to pay a bit more if you're looking for something different.

Like the easy feel of shopping here. Picked up a beach towel for the fast approaching hot days in LA. Thinking about going back for a duffle bag for weekend trips.

Was visiting from NY and stumbled upon this place walking in the awesome Garden district. Great selection of menswear (Vnishing Elephant, Saturdays Surf, Burkman Bros, etc) just like NY, without the trendy scene. This is the future of NO shopping ;)

Yikes. Nonexistent reception when I walked in the door because whoever was working was too busy talking to his friend to acknowledge a potential customer. Had to interrupt their conversation to ask if they had something. They had one style of the item I was looking for. It's a small boutique with stylish menswear, but I left quickly after taking a minute to look at everything else. I'm sure if I were a dude I would be into what they sell here, I just wish they would drop the Williamsburg-esque pretension. Gave them an extra star for what appeared to be a well curated collection of clothes and accessories. Ah, maybe better luck next time.

A super stylish mens store with an awesome owner. The last time I was in I wanted to try everything on! The owner, Parker, was really nice and knew a lot about the clothes. I like that everything was really cool without trying too hard- just the kind of stuff I like: casual, interesting, but still fun. This one is going on my 'definite' list, the next time I'm searching for new stuff.

I love this store, they offer more unique brands than their counterparts and each outfit appears to be specially chosen. The customer service is also great; I was able to strike up a nice conversation with the clerk while making my selections. Although the price is higher than other stores, you will definitely have a superior style than the average person. I've been going to this store for almost a year now and will continue to be a dedicated customer.

Fairly interesting menswear shop carrying smaller brands. Reminds me of a number of stores in Toronto.

Nice modern men's store on lower Magazine st.
