Once you’ve soaked up the scenery of the historic French Quarter, tour the elegant Garden District and meet the colorful characters of Frenchmen Street. Experience the city's supernatural vibe at the Voodoo Museum or by taking a guided ghost or vampire tour through taverns, alleyways, and cemeteries.

Excellent bar just off the lobby of the Hotel Monteleone. The circular bar is decorated as a carousel and rotates as you enjoy a cool beverage. Plenty of non-rotating seating as well. Live entertainment in the evenings.

We were lucky enough to be there the last night the Iguanas were playing before leaving for their summer tours up north. Great place to hear the band and enjoy the local folks.
4. The Polo Club Lounge
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 42 reviews
Enjoy classic cocktails, live jazz and a new menu in the recently expanded and refurbished Polo Club Lounge. With the addition of approximately 930 square feet of seating and performance space, Polo Club Lounge is reminiscent of the private clubs of England with its rich, soft furnishings and dark woods that welcome the most discerning guest.

We were back in New Orleans for a medical symposium, and stayed over the Holidays, for a bit of a vacation. We spent some of our time at the Polo Club Lounge, in the Windsor Court Hotel, on the second floor. The theme is that of an English country club’s bar, but with many New Orleans touches - though one might need to look for them. The Polo Club Lounge was still decorated for the Holidays, and it was joyous, especially as the weather had turned rather gloomy. This is a very comfortable, and welcoming space, and I like their wine list too. Even with the gloomy skies outside, we enjoyed the view from the bar, through a wall of glass, looking down upon Tchoupitoulas St. Besides the semi-divided seating, within the club, and the bar, there is also seating in a little ante-room, on the mezzanine, but we did not sit there, on either of these visits. The space opens from both the second-floor mezzanine and from the fine-dining restaurant, the Grill Room. Besides the stairs to the mezzanine, there is a dedicated elevator from the lobby of the hotel, plus access via the main bank of elevators, to the side of the lobby - great, and easy access. Before a previous visit, the space had been enlarged, and a “band stand” had been added to the Polo Club Lounge. We were there in the early afternoon, so did not really get to enjoy the nightly music, but did hear some good, soft jazz, when we dined next door one evening. We enjoy the comfortable sofa seating a lot, but also sat at the bar one afternoon. Regardless of whether we had table service, or dealt with the bartenders, we had great experiences. Everyone is warm, friendly and very helpful. During one of our visits, the restaurant’s Sommelier stopped by to say hello, and managed to get a couple of glasses of wine (opened the evening before), that were not on the wine list. That was a very nice touch. Since our previous visit, the wine list had changed a bit, with more focus on some lesser-seen varietals. Still, plenty to enjoy! We started with two glasses of Schramsberg Napa Blanc-de-Blanc ‘14 sparkling wine (a holdover from the previous list), then moved to the Château d'Épiré Savennières (Chenin Blanc), which was a returning wine, plus the Domaine Laroche Saint Martin Chablis and then the Ramey Russian River Valley Chardonnay - both new to the list. When we sat at the bar, we had the Cembra Pinot Grigio Trentino-Alto Adige, the Willamette Valley Vineyards Willamette Valley Riesling and the Trimbach Alsatian Riesling for whites, and the Laroche La Chevalier Pays D’Oc Pinot Noir, and the Les Cadrans de Lassegne Saint Emilion Grand Cru Bordeaux - so, not your “everyday wine list,” and hardly any of “the usual suspects.” On our next stay, we have pledged that we will take in the music one night.

Currently the Sazerac is Serving food so families and children are allowed. Named after what many consider to be the world’s first mixed drink, The Sazerac carries as much history as its potable namesake. Just gazing at the famous Paul Ninas murals flanking the African walnut bar takes you back to the grandeur of old New Orleans – a time when Huey P. Long would stroll in, order a Ramos Gin Fizz, and spend the next couple of hours talking to his constituents. Restored to reflect the spirit of the original establishment, elegant bar stools and plush banquettes invite locals and visitors alike to enjoy hand-crafted cocktails and free-flowing conversations. Make your night one to remember by starting it off in style at a New Orleans institution recently named the #1 Hotel Bar in the U.S. by thousands of voters in the 2018 USAToday 10Best poll.

Sazerac Bar, home of the Ramos Gin Fizz. Had to pop in and check this spot out. Went there after eating at the famed but average Commanders Palace. Beautiful bar , knowledgeable bartender, Carlos, I believe, we were drunk, who explained the history of the bar, made us a round of Ramos Gin Fizzes and kept us entertained for a bit, until it was on to the next stop that night!! Check out this beautiful hotel and hotel bar!

Trip with husband and mom. She likes this style music, and she loved that they were sharp dressers. We had a comfortable sofa straight back from the stage, plus a large table for food. Had cheese plate ($18), andouille sausage plate ($13), and grilled cheese w/tomato soup ($15), plus drinks. Other reviewers raved about the grilled cheese, and they are right. Mom had the tomato soup and loved it. My favorite was the cheese plate... beautiful and plentiful. My husband's was the andouille. Music was just perfect! Mr. Davenport signed my mom's autograph book, gave her a CD and played Happy Birthday (although her birthday was early April, but this trip was part of her birthday present.) Our server, Brad, was outstanding! Just a perfect, luxurious evening. I would recommend it for anyone, even if you just get one appetizer or drink.
