The Fry Bar

Got the Rosemary Garlic fries. Really liked everything about the dish… Except the actual fries. They would be much better if they were hand cut, and would probably be cheaper too. Love the whole garlic included and the Rosemary, and the presentation is very neat. Also, the white-​ish sauce is phenomenal (can’t remember what they called it). Will try again soon, and hopefully they start hand cutting the fries!

OMGGGGGG!!! MUST HAVE. I can’t even form sentences just thinking about this… or at least without salivating.
I took my parents who were in town for the week to the arts market and I told them politely that they HAD to try these. Yes, I took them all over town for the best meals and I insisted on a box of fries. My dad got some with cheese and olive salad, I can’t quite remember exactly… anyways, he actually put these fries in his TOP 5 of his favorite meals in New Orleans hahaha! Seriously.
Last weekend I had the Rosemary, Parmesan, & Garlic fries and my roommate had the Pimento cheese, Thyme and Garlic ones. They were both ridiculously good. Like, really really ridiculously good looking/​tasting. I love that they are thick, fresh, and so flavorful. The garlicky aioli is good enough to drink. Ugh, I’m gross.
Is it weird that I go to certain events/​festivals if I know the Fry Bar is going to be there?

Maybe I’m too over excited for this and the five stars are an overstatement. But the fact that something called the fry bar actually exists is a big enough reason for me to happy :) This place might be the only reason I go to Freret Street market (that and Woody’s fish tacos)
Gourmet French fries. Best 3 words

We tried the Garlic, Rosemary, Parmesan fries today at the Arts Market. So good! The rosemary kind of disappeared to the bottom, but I enjoyed the garlic & parm throughout the container of fries.
Not the healthiest snack, but a delicious treat. My daughter requested some «normal ketchup» but she was content eating them plain… I enjoyed the fancy ketchup :)

Some of the best french fries ever. I had the Gordon Biersch garlic fries but these are so much better. I am not a big french fry person but these are exceptional.

Oh look more festival food. The fry bar makes french fries… super yummy french fries (with the skin still on — yum) and they add interesting flavors. Check them out at festivals about town (like the Freret Street fest & the Arts Market where I have sampled their wares).
Now, some of the flavors are not really up my alley… the garlic fries will keep the vampires away for you for days, for instance, but that might really appeal to someone who is a super-​garlic person. They use really good quality ingredients plus who doesn’t like to eat fancy fries.

LOVE LOVE LOVE the Fry Bar. They are another one of the mobile foods stands quickly popping up all over the city. They specialize in Fries, YUMMY Gourmet fries!
Here are some examples of the «flavors» they have put out
Basil, Feta Salad, & Garlic
Oregano, Provolone, Olive Salad, & Garlic
Thyme, Goat Cheese, & Garlic fries with truffle oil
Rosemary, Parm, & Garlic fries w/​brisket
Fried Basil, aged Provolone & garlic
Queso Fresco, Cilantro & chili Powder
Feta Oregano & lemon
Zatarain’s, Garlic & green onion
They also do sauces like Rosemary and red pepper ketchup, chili aioli, mustard mayo and something they call guacamoleo (haven’t tried that one because I am not a fan of guacamole)
Yeah THAT kind of fries, the fries that have you drooling and having sweet sweet dreams at night about them. If you haven’t tried them you need them in your life. They come in clever chinese to go containers and are perfectly awesome!
You can find them, at Palmer Park, Freret Market, New Orleans Film Society’s Friday outdoor screenings, and other venues of the like around town. You can also email them to find out where they will be next at
