Great Drinks-only spots (because I can only put 12 spots on the food page!)

The general neighborhood is listed with each place name, and we've tried to order them French Quarter --> Marigny and Bywater --> Warehouse District/Uptown and beyond. 

You can also try checking out Paris' New Orleans Google Map!

Best. Bloody Mary. Just ask Sarah. At the corner of Royal and Barracks at the edge of the French Quarter (1239 Royal). Oh, did we mention they have drag shows too?

Fabulous happy hour. Food is good too, but that page is full.... 2-5 daily for great food and drink deals. 

And again ... photo credit to Sarah H!

Grab a bike or an Uber and head to the far edge of the Bywater neighborhood for a chill afternoon in a gorgeous courtyard. Make-your-own charcuterie, wine by the bottle, cocktails, and live music .... need we say more?

Located inside the Roosevelt Hotel, this one's classic. Get a Sazerac or a Ramos Gin Fizz for the most classic experience. Buyer beware - it's not cheap.

You may recognize the glassware ...

So much more than a bar ... in fact, it's one of the most venerable music spots in NOLA. 

Yes, that picture is from Red Rocks.

Another New Orleans music institution. Grab a drink and soak in the history, or catch a show. Either way, hit up the back patio to see Paris' bricks!
