The Upper Quarter is a safe place for locals to go in the touristy French Quarter and is cleaner than your typical New Orleans dive. It is small enough where everyone in the whole room just talks to one another, joining in each other’s conversation and friendly banter. They have trivia on Wednesday nights starting at 7 and winners receive free drink tokens. They allow dogs in the bar and there is also a cute little patio in the back. Tons of NOLA art and memorabilia cover the walls. This place just gives me a happy, cozy feeling and the bartenders are incredibly nice.

This is hands down my favorite French quarter bar. A friend introduced me to this place and their owner who is an incredibly nice fun guy to speak with and he proudly runs a great locals bar. The prices are perfect and the bartenders are all laid back. They have a juke box as well and small courtyard

Everything about this place is great. Sometimes I can even reserve a bar stool through a secret network of the bartending Ninja’s that are always happy to enable me into bad decisions after I leave this fine establishment. This place has great drinks(I’ve only had their Makers Mark seductively poured over the finest ice) and the staff is generally friendly unless you want to mud wrestle with ‘little people’ in the middle of the dance floor. Oh, they frown upon ballroom dancing in the middle of a Saints game. I understand they don’t know how to dance and the staff gets jealous.

This place was the highlight of our visit to NOLA, largely because we were the only tourists in the place! The bartender/owner was so personable and makes a mean drink for half the price of some other places nearby. Not to be overlooked are the beer & shot specials… I was a particular fan of High Life + Jameson’s for a whopping $ 6. That’s a good deal no matter where you are and to find it in the French Quarter is astounding. This place is a landing spot for local service industry folks when they get off work and we got hooked up with all the info we could have hoped for about what to see and where to go. Definitely not to be missed. We’ll be sure to hit it again before we leave!

This bar is the epitome of what a NOLA neighborhood bar should be. Grandiose bartenders and fabulous conversation. This is the place to go when you are ready escape from the madness of Bourbon chaos! As a local I give this place 10 stars!!! Ask for Jay or Shawn they are both charming and intelligent gentlemen!

A place for locals — see Jamie on Sunday afternoons — he’s a lovely gent from England who moved to NOLA by way of NYC. Made me a slammin’ basil smash cocktail. It’s a small simple place — not a dive — just a bar without the hoopla of Bourbon Street. I had really good conversations with the folks there.

A great neighborhood bar in a perfect location. Blocks away from the Saenger and Bourbon Street(if that’s your thing), the Upper Quarter is one of a handful of bars in the Quarter frequented by locals. Very friendly bar staff. You can’t beat the Upper Quarter when the Saints are playing.

Great little«clean» neighborhood bar! Friendly atmosphere, great cocktails, and cool staff. Close to the Saenger Theatre and two blocks from Bourbon. Love this place:-) Also, fun to watch Saints games!
