Keife & Co.

Very friendly and helpful folks with a wonderful selection of wine and liquor.

I’ve never been to New Orleans but my sister and her husband were celebrating an anniversary at Marriott courtyard near by
The owner of this place was so wonderful and helpful to send over a great bag of goodies free delivery to their hotel .
It was a thoughtful selection of wine,
charcuterie and cheeses.
Amazing!

Full Disclosure: This place has stolen my heart.
(And my wallet)
Having recently decided to amass a strong collection of spirits and other assorted drink elixirs.
Keife & Co has become my new best friend.
The good.
The bad.
The ugly.
Even the hard-​to-​finds are all stocked here just waiting to be adopted.
Taken home.
Loved.
Respected.
Obsessed over.
And shared (assuming you like your house guests).
They also participate in the NOLA Spirit Exchange which means that they are one of 3 other spots in NOLA (Yes, Barrel Proof is another) that will purchase a barrel from the distillery and serve/​sell specialty blended and bottled Bourbons for the most special of sipping and mixing occasions.
I love comradery when it comes to booze.

Doubt there’s a more knowledgeable staff anywhere else in the city and they are super helpful w/​o being condescending. I’m of the «don’t know much about wine but I know what I like» ilk and they always help steer me to drinkable reasonably priced bottles. Their spirits section is well stocked too. Parking’s fairly accessible as well for the CBD. All in all no better place to serve your entertaining needs.

Unbelievably rude! There are so many places to buy wine, why be treated badly? Avoid!!!

They obviously have a great selection of wines, but also new gin brands and things that you won’t find anywhere else. I’ve only been in once, but I highly recommend it and plan to return regularly. The meters and free off-​street parking in the back makes it super convenient.

I flew to NOLA from Boston and visited French Bar 75 and talked to mixologist Chris Hannah. I asked him if there was a merchant in NOLA where I could buy local spirits, bitters, and gifts to bring home. He turned me on to John at Keife and company. This merchant has hard to find spirits, bitters, honey, wine, cheese, and other gifts that you won’t find anywhere else. I made my selections and I didn’t want to pack them in my suitcase so I had the items shipped home. John exceeded my expectations as a merchant for his outstanding customer service. I would not hesitate to call from home again to order and have them ship to me or stop by when I’m in the area.

Great service! We flew in from NY and needed wine and cheese catering for a customer event. John went out of his way to accommodate our needs, supply nice looking baskets and platters and make this as easy for us as possible.
Both the wines and the cheeses he selected were excellent! Delicious and also very good value for money. All our customers loved it and we’ll definitely order here again when we come back to NOLA!

Your «Party-​in-​Your-​Hotel-​Room» HQ while in New Orleans!!! This shop is a true gem for provisioning a party for even your snootiest gourmand friends! GREAT wine & booze selection @ very competitive prices; OUTSTANDING charcuterie, bread & cheese, complemented with a nice selection of accessories, gifts and stocking-​stuffers. Came out with a sackful of bourbon, wine, prosciutto, cheese and crackers… Knowledgeable and friendly staff & management… CLASS ACT!!!

After two years of being a regular customer it is time to update my review. This place like the wine that is offered just gets better with age. The owners continue to not only supply a wide and reasonably priced selection of wine but also assist in finding out of the way wines you may want to try.
The meat, bread, and other tasty treats are also great for a private get together with the love of your life or for a larger gathering.
Reminder they are on vacation until August 25 when it is time to stock up for the cooler weather that will be approaching.
And the Thursday wine tastings are the best bargain in town.

Was in a rush and these guys helped me find a great bottle of wine and bourbon in a pinch. Will definitely be back to spend some more time and money

Amazing guys who run/​own Keife & Co. I tend to get headaches when drinking — especially with red wine — and they’ve always recommended wines that keep the headaches down. It’s wonderful! Their selection is top notch and amazing, too.

Keife & Co is the place to go for specialty spirits, bitters, wine, barware, gifts, meats, cheese and fancy imported things of great quality. Why would a visitor stop here? Maybe just to find some local bitters and check and see if there are any interesting bourbons that don’t make it to the Northwest, that’s why.
Pecan-​Chicory bitters — you’re all mine now.

John and Jim know their wines.
You will not be dissapointed, great attention to their customers.
Fantastic selection on all world wines.
A must try in the warehouse district.
there is always a vibrant energy in the shop.

Called them from Cali to send a gift to my boss’ friend staying at a local hotel. The owner was super helpful and put together a classy bottle of champagne and some artisan chocolates.
Champagne+Chocolate+Bag+Delivery = $ 58
Making Me Look Good to My Boss = Priceless

I was there a couple of days ago, on Monday. I was preparing a very special dinner for someone I really wanted to impress, and my heart sunk as I drove up and realized they were closed on Mondays. I saw movement inside so I took a chance and called. The response couldn’t have been more gracious! They were closed but, when I explained my situation, I was not only invited in but also assisted with two very fine selections. The wine was as delicious as it was talked up to be and we enjoyed it so much, that we didn’t even open the second varietal. I’ll save that for next time.
Bottom line, this experience was the epitome of hospitality and I will be forever grateful! Now I’m looking forward to returning when they are open, so that I can spend a day in there just looking around and learning about more wines!

After visiting a number of other liquor stores around the city, I called Cure to find out where the place to visit is. They said hands down that it was Keife & Co. They were so right.
The store is small in square footage but packed with choices. The floor to ceiling selection not only includes spirits but wine, beer & tasty European treats (cured meats, cheese, etc).
I wanted to buy about 16 different bottles but was nervous to check them on my bag. Guess what, they ship. You need to call them but it’s worth it.
In the end, I bought 6 bottles including some bitters and have been enjoying the spoils ever since. Well worth the trip to make your own home craft cocktails.

The guys here are fantastic! Knowledgeable to say the least. Friendly. Obviously they love what they do. The pack a lot of wonderful itmes into a small space. Finally attended one of their weekly tastings. Had a great time. Sipped some wine. Made a new friend or 5. Sadly, I was rushed out by my companion due to a dinner date and didn’t get to purchase the wine I wanted.
I’ve been hunting for Chinese Rose Wine for two and a half years. Recently I’ve recruited John in helping me. He’s been wonderful but sadly the stuff keeps alluding us.
Can’t decide if it’s a good thing they are within walking distance or a bad thing. Hummm…

If you’re looking for whipped cream vodka or a case of Bud Light, this is not the place.
For a cocktail and whiskey fanatic in New Orleans, Keife & Co is a dream come true.
For years, I have relied on internet orders to get the stuff that just doesn’t make it to NOLA area stores. This store has greatly assuaged that reliance. Not just that, but the owners are so awesome and invested in their products that they have introduced me to a dozen new products by recommendation or an outright taste test. It’s not that their selection is exhaustive; the store is small (but not cramped) and space is limited. However, the soaring ceilings and library shelves make for a high-​end presentation that’s easy to browse. If I was more of a wine drinker, I might move next door, as their weekly tastings are very pleasant affairs.
Overall, prices are fair to high, but I forgive this because of the outstanding service and selection. This store has my highest recommendation.

The owners pain stakingly taste –tested everything in their store which is nice if you want to try something new –they have first hand experience! I was impressed with the prices and selection. They have something for every budget. At first I thought they may be high end only because of the location but it wasn’t the case. Very friendly customer service. They also have cool accompaniments that you may not find elsewhere.
