Some of the best times I've had in Nola began at the Boondock Saint and finished at the Erin Rose.

have to disagree with you there. BR is a much better space plus they have a better selection of beers and a better group of bartenders.

Why would you go to Parlays? Your friends from Lakeview?

Everything else is fine IMO. I've never been to Cafe Negril before.

I just think the one is nola has better patrons. The one in br appears to be full of hey-brahs from Livingston parish

And it takes 20 minutes to get a beer at a beer garden? No thanks



Tell me of this Erin Rose that everyone is talking about?

Yes I have a few friends that live in Lakeview and it's really fun to watch Saints games there. And they let us throw parties there.

Cafe Negril, dba, and that Japanese bar are three must stops for me on Frenchman.... The Sake bombs get you right.

And yea I hear you on Parlays, it was just a random one on a list like that.

Negril is awesome if you like Reggae.... And one of my top albums of all time is Bob Marley Legend.

Needless to say they cover that album quite a bit.

About to start a thread ranking top drinks in nola

Nice, Im close to that around Tulane. Freret has stepped up their game and there are some nice spots to grab some food and booze if you are on that side.

This. NO Bulldogs have crappy beer selections comparatively.

Just signed a lease like three days ago. Is my list legit? Or too tourist?


No it's just all over the place. A few good choices but a bunch of crap. Can tell you don't live here from your list. I'm sure now that you will be living here your list will drastically change.

Balcony Bar


Place is horrible would make the worst bar in NOLA list. It's also become popular with the natives.

Is Parlays a gay bar? I always get that feeling there.

I'll have a drink on the balcony at balcony bar every once in a while, don't really care who's there if I got with a few buddies.

The bouncer also used to sell drugs which was nice.
