5 best gumbo stops in the French Quarter

Doing a gumbo crawl with some friends in the quarter. Current suggestions are Petite Amelie, Revolution, Gumbo Pot, Palace Cafe.
Just looking at places to have a cup of gumbo and a drink. Any other suggestions?

Get out of the Q and go to Herbsaint. Best bowl I’ve had in the city.

I would put NOLA on the schedule.

The only bowl of gumbo I have ever had in a restaurant in my entire life that stood out was the death by gumbo at Revolution

I like Mr. B’s Gumbo ya ya for a restaurant in the quarter.

I actually have never been to Mr B’s. Can we walk in without a reservation and just order gumbo?

Sure you can, either early lunch or before dinner service. Heck, I would just head to the bar and make it happen.

You just need to try it outside of the NOLA area

You just need to try it outside of the NOLA area Lots of great gumbo in restaurants in the Laffy area.
While good, they never stood out because gumbo at home and other peoples house are just as good. It just isnt a difficult dish. I rarely order it in restaurants unless its part of a course or half and half lunch special because of this.
However, Revolutions gumbo stood out to me. It was thick and smokey unlike any gumbo I have had before

Is a coffee shop. Cafe Amelie is great though, both the bar and courtyard are perfect.

Stanley Restaurant on the corner of Jackson Square. Easily my favorite gumbo in the city.

Are you familiar with south la my north la baw? We used to have a place down in pierre part my baw and we would go the back way from there through jeanerette and franklin

Napolean house is decent & is FQ to the bone
Galatoires has good gumbo, I’m pretty sure if you wanted you could go into Galatoires 33 next door & order some if it isn’t on their menu as I believe they share kitchens
Arnauds has a standout too

No baw. We didn't have these fancy driving machines to be able to take us 3 hours away.
