Summer Drinks

If there's one thing New Orleans has no shortage of, it's watering holes. The city's bar scene is legendary, but it can be hard to decide where to wet your whistle with so many options to choose from. If you're on the hunt for a refreshing summer cocktail in NOLA, our real estate agents are here to help point you in the right direction. 

  • Jewel of the South - 1026 St Louis St, New Orleans, LA 70112
    With its pub-like tavern room and shady brick courtyard, Jewel of the South is a New Orleans classic. It's located in one of the few remaining free-standing 18th-century brick Creole cottages in the French Quarter, and it's a short drive from countless New Orleans homes for sale. This James Beard-winning spot has been ranked among the best bars in America many times over, and its innovative cocktails are served alongside equally inspired small plates. 

  • Carousel Bar & Lounge - 214 Royal St, New Orleans, LA 70130
    If you start to feel the room spinning, don't panic. It's actually the bar itself that's rotating, because you're at Carousel Bar & Lounge, New Orleans' first and only revolving cocktail bar. This beloved landmark inside the Hotel Monteleone has been serving elevated cocktails since 1949, and the bartenders here still mix up some of the best Pimm's Cups and Polomas in town. The Carousel Old Fashioned is another perennial favorite.

  • Bar Brine - 3200 Burgundy St, New Orleans, LA 70117
    When you get a little thirsty between visiting New Orleans open houses in the Bywater neighborhood, be sure to make a pit stop at Bar Brine. Sharing a space with the Sneaky Pickle, Bar Brine is a fun, funky hangout that serves tasty mixed drinks alongside a menu of locally-sourced farm-to-table fare, including some of the best vegan and vegetarian food in NOLA. The cocktails are fresh, creative, and often made with unusual ingredients.

  • Hot Tin - 2031 St Charles Ave FL 14, New Orleans, LA 70130
    A rooftop bar with indoor and outdoor spaces atop the Pontchartrain Hotel, Hot Tin offers nearly panoramic views of the Downtown New Orleans skyline and the Mississippi River. But the view isn't the only reason to grab a drink at this chic spot. The cocktails are also exceptional. Colorful—and colorfully named—refreshers like the High Violet, the Fontaine Ferry, and the Pirate's Alley make the view even more enjoyable.

  • Bar Tonique - 820 N Rampart St, New Orleans, LA 70116
    Vibey and laid-back, Bar Tonique is a favorite among locals and visitors alike. The skilled mixologists on staff make cocktails that are delicious and deceptively simple. This place has a real neighborhood feel to it, and it's also known for offering some of the best and most reasonably priced drinks in New Orleans, especially if you visit during their weekday happy hour. Classics like the Boulevardier, Old Fashioned, and Vieux Carré are guaranteed to satisfy without draining your wallet.

  • Salon Salon - 544 Carondelet St, New Orleans, LA 70130
    Few cocktail bars in New Orleans offer a more fun and unique ambiance than Salon Salon, a hip cocktail establishment in a former library. You might feel like you're in a Wes Anderson movie as you sip a thoughtfully crafted beverage amid this Salon Salon's rose-colored walls and vintage furnishings. House creations like the El Guapito (agave, peach, chili, and yellow pepper) are superb, and the French-inspired à la carte menu is also exceptional. Reservations are highly recommended.
