New Orleans staple! Great prices for obscene amounts of quality and options(usually about 8 – 10 different types). Not the same as the sugary stuff on Bourbon, this is higher quality and better priced. You can also take yours to the fly afterwards, or walk around the adorable part of the city that it is in. Note – not a drive thru as sometimes mentioned as being.

As a chain in New Orleans, this definitely meets the standards I hold for a chain. This location is very neat, clean and well lit. As with most locations of this chain, you might want to fork out money for an extra shot as the drinks are kind of weak out of the machines. They always have plenty of flavors to choose from, the servers are nice, and sometimes there can be a line inside. They do not have a drive thru at this location. Parking can get packed. This is a great location to people watch, as there is always an interesting character or two and the bartenders have a great sense of humor. The seasonal Egg Nog is always a great choice when offered, otherwise it is half piña colada/half strawberry for me! I always look forward to coming back.

The best part about this place? Super, super, super cheap Daiquiris of all kinds of flavors. They even have an Everclear daiquiri(which is probably not so great an idea). The drinks are a bit sweet, but you can ask for samples to find the flavor that really suits you. This is a pretty great place to just relax with friends, especially because its not in the busy area of the French Quarter. This means that its also decently clean compared to the ones on Bourbon Street.

Always a pleasure swinging by here when in NOLA! It is not far and the drinks are pretty good. The ladies there are always helpful And towards the end of day locals stop by to play pool and listen to music.

Went in last night with family from Texas. The employees refused to serve my cousin when she presented a Texas ID card(she doesn’t drive). We were told«we can’t accept out of state ID cards as proof of age»…now understand, my cousin is 40 years old and although she doesn’t look 40 she doesn’t look 21 either! This is New Orleans… a tourist town! You expect me to believe that NO out of state ID cards are accepted as proof of age for alcohol purhases? You guys just lost a valued customer and I will make a post comparable to this on every NOLA website I can find.

Being from Boston, we aren’t allowed to purchase alcohol and walk around the city! We were visiting friends and family for the weekend because I was running a half marathon! So after the race we went to our friends house and she took us on a downtown New Orleans adventure! More like a celebration for finishing my 18th half marathon! I was still amazed about how we were able to drink but when we got inside, there were many choices. At least 18 to choose from and of course we sampled about half a dozen flavors. I ended up getting the Kahlua Mudslide. It was delicious and it literally tasted like a mudslide but frozen! Next time I want to try a more fruity flavor like Peach Bellini.

Great daquiris and the service is usually pretty quick, but their employees or their signs need to be updated on acceptable identification. I presented my 100% legal temporary paper ID issued by Alabama until my hard plastic one arrives. Louisiana businesses have been unfamiliar with the paper temp so I carry my expired plastic ID as well and have had no problem until tonight. The server sneered that I could have just printed it off of my computer and the expired one wasn’t valid so she wouldn’t accept either. It was embarrassing to have my state issued ID turned away(though their sign says nothing about not accepting temporary IDs) and leaving empty handed. I asked to speak to a manager but she said she was the manager at the moment. No other business has had a problem with my ID and any police officer could have confirmed its validity. I’m very disappointed and am hesitant to give my business here in the future.

Located in the«Black Pearl» ‘hood, or what I prefer to call the«L» corner of S. Carrollton and St. Charles. As I drive through this area frequently, this daiq shack is always calling my name. There are numerous, rotating flavors that line the wall behind the bar. Whatever tickles your fancy can be found here in frozen form. I have a preference for the Jungle Juice and Bellini flavors — ALWAYS with an extra shot. It’s worth the extra $ 1-$ 3 upcharge(depending whether you get rail, mid or top shelf liquors). Surprisingly, this place also serves up some reasonably priced, tasty sammiches. Nothing beats retreating here on a super hot day — taking a seat in the AC, imbibing on a 20 oz or two(ok, maybe a gallon…) of high octane deliciousness and then«sobering up» with a filling poboy.

Amaretto & Pineapple. ‘Nuff said! Daiquiris are good, prices aren’t bad at all. The place is a bit divey and parking can be a pain. We were able to park our SUV right next to the train tracks, run in and grab some yumminess.

This place has awesome $ 5 poboys. If you’re broke and hungry. this is the place to go. The roast beef is the only poboy they offer but its a classic and you can’t beat the $ 5 price tag. I have had my fair share of poboys around this city and don’t let this cheap price fool you for flavor. it’s hands down a top contender in my book. I come here quite often. Speedy service is also a plus, they have it under control.

Yum, yum, yum! My husband and I ride our bikes here and get a refreshing cocktail and then leisurely pedal back home. It’s not too far, so quite easy to pedal and slurp a delicious frozen daiquiri. I am not sure of the«official» name of the flavor, but my favorite is the one with pineapple and amaretto. OMG! Best price for a drink that I have seen!

Wouldn’t even know what the daiquiris taste like since the cashier/server was baffled by the fact that state ID’s change over time. Basically I came in with 4 friends, all of us from Mississippi. Two of us had ID’s issued around the same time, and the other two had ones different ones from ours but similar to each other. Apparently this was enough to bar us from service, despite the fact that we were all of age, one of us wasn’t even drinking, and the ID’s were all obviously real. She also even used a black light en on all of them which obviously was just for show since we still got no daiquiris. Whatever. This woman was annoying and put a real damper on the night. You’d think someone who served liquor in LA would recognize an MSID better but guess not. Would not go back or recommend.

Daiquiris are delicious, though not as strong as I would like. I have no qualms about the price though – since they are so delicious. Peach bellini, get in my belly! What I really have a hard time with at this location is parking. This whole corner is just a nightmare to navigate, mostly because it’s such a highly-packed tourist area and they don’t understand who has the right-of-way. But even if you do manage to get to the correct corner of the intersection, parking is almost never available. If you have a bigger car, you can drive up onto the strip of land between the levee and the train tracks, but my little baby can’t quite make it up there. Luckily for me, this place is within walking distance of my house. – and then I get to walk home with a delicious daiquiri in my hand!

Prices could be better, especially considering that the daiquiris are not that strong. I’ve been here several times and ordered from several different servers. Despite being of age, I get interrogated every time I go.(Note: If you’re young and wear prescription sunglasses, they will do a hand motion after you order, which means they want you to show them your eyes.) Each time I tipped, the server didn’t express any appreciation, so don’t feel any pressure to tip these stuck up servers, as they apparently couldn’t care less.

This Daiquiris spot is the best in NOLA. The daiquiris are never melted, there is more than one server and they are friendly. They have a great location in a nice building. The area is clean and not super creepy like some random daiquiris places. They are always playing great music. They even have tables to sit and enjoy your daiquiris. They should make it a restaurant/bar so I could come hang out and drink daiquiris all night! My go to is the Jungle Juice.

THESPOT for daq’s in NOLA. Get the 190 Octane, you won’t regret it. oh, and it comes in gallons, so… maybe you will regret it… but not because it isn’t delicious. We grabbed two gallons, headed to crabby jacks and then the Fly. That’s an afternoon that’s tough to beat. A great way to spend my 20 minute trip to the airport, as well. …and no, I wasn’t driving.

Yes it is a little bit cheesy but it is also a New Orleans tradition to get your daquiri on. This is the best location to grab an iconic, icy, tasty beverage before heading off to the Fly for a fun filled afternoon or a Carnival parade. They have some fantastic flavors and you can always add extra shots and get sizes all the way up to a gallon. I personally like to stick with the strawberry so I can delude myself that it is mostly healthy and it isn’t packed with a weeks worth of sugar. The biggest negative for this location is there isn’t a legendary drive through so you have to walk inside and parking can get pretty crowded around this oddly located building(that can be a bit clumsy to navigate around). Some people actually even hang out here but I’ve always just grabbed mine to go.

I always wondered why the line was bananas at this spot. The Victoria’s Secret Daiquiris has everything a girl needs to get the weekend started promptly! Try not to visit too late, bc they are running a muck after dark!
