Rating des Ortes: 3 Garden District, New Orleans, LA
I drove past this neighborhood dive joint for years but as it has no visible sign on the outside, other than some neon beer signs in the curtained windows, I had just assumed it was somebody’s house. Well what do you know this is actually a deep cover bar that has a focus on firefighter regalia as the current owner was a fireman. They have a jukebox and card tables along with some televisions that are usually playing sports channels. You have to get buzzed in to enter and this is a place that tourists rarely will venture and I’ve never seen more than a handful of people in here. The drink prices are a great value and the only downsides are it can be smokey and they often close early by NOLA standards.
