World Of Beer

I’ve been at this world of beer during slow days, and during the busiest times for them (mardi gras, new years); this team is fantastic, friendly and knowledgeable. well done. i hope corporate acknowledges how good of a place this is from Anna the manager, to the front and back of the house to the bar tenders that put up with my drunk ass.

I hate to add my voice to the negative chorus of one star ratings but…
I have been driving for Über on the side and I was doing so last night. I picked up a guy named Taylor from an Israeli Restaurant, (Shaya on Magazine) and dropped him off at World of Beer just after midnight. He was a bar tender and we had a great talk. He stated that he had a buddy who was also a bar tender, at World of Beer and he was going to check out the beer, etc. He said they were open until 2 a.m. and he invited me to join him/​them for a beer. Being a beer lover, I decided I would definitely try to join him if the opportunity arose.
Long story short, I finally was able to get back to World of Beer at about 1:55 a.m. Several staff members were still there. They were cleaning up the place and putting chairs back on tables. I went to the door and looked at the hours. I THINK they were supposed to be open till 2 a.m. but I couldn’t swear to it. I was disappointed. It appeared that I missed my buddy. I stood at the door — the doors were locked but made of glass so you can see everything. This Mr. T looking white guy (best I can describe him) approaches me and says through the crack in the doors, «Can I help you.» I politely asked if I could use the restroom. Once inside, I was going to ask him about World of Beer, hours, my friend from Shaya, etc.
He looks back at me and says, «No sir, we are closed.» He then immediately turned his back to me, and walked away. Shocked at his gesture and needing to take care of mother nature, I stood at the door for a minute. Then I noticed an Embassy Suites directly across the street. I went inside and found the restroom. When I returned, I stopped by the windows and saw the Mr. T looking fellow, I called to him (with sarcasm), «Thank YOU! and Have a good night.» He looked at me with a blank stare as though I was a small annoying dog barking through a fence. I walked to my car and drove off.
The moral of the story:
THIS WAS NOT ABOUT BEER OR WORLD OF BEER. THIS WAS ABOUT COMMON DECENCY AND BASIC HUMAN KINDNESS. WHATEVER HAPPENED TO JUST BEING NICE TO PEOPLE??? Seriously. What kind of a person callously denies his fellow man an opportunity to GO TO THE BATHROOM at 2 o’clock in the morning??? World of Beer is in the HOSPITALITY INDUSTRY IN NEW ORLEANS and they better wake up and realize it or they will go the way of many chains who have gone before them. THIS WAS ABOUT ATTITUDE and that character’s body language screamed «F%$K YOU pal. It sucks to be you.» When a man turns his BACK ON YOU in that direct manner, I believe the interpretation is clear. He made a decision. I hope World of Beer makes a decision as well.
P. S. I have NO IDEA what their beer is like and I don’t think I will venture to find out. I called them just a few minutes ago in hopes of discussing this with a manager. The phone went to voice mail.

Terrible. Just terrible. You are in New Orleans. Go somewhere else.
Came in and was immediately sat down. Ordered some waters while we tried to sort through the tablet which contained the 500 something beers. We got 3 of our 6 waters and was told they were waiting on clean glasses to come out. We never got the other waters.
Our server had no idea what beer was. I mean that literally; he was making it all up on the fly. We tried to ask for a recommendation for an IPA. He suggested a beer, which when delivered was definitely a stout. One of us ordered a flight, which had the names totally unreadable, so we tried to ask him what was it. He told us the lightest beer was a beer we all knew to be a stout, so at that point we gave up hope of discovering what we were drinking.
I had a Caesar salad with chicken. The chicken was tiny crumbs of dried, overcooked meat over a very lightly dressed salad. It needed salt and pepper, but none could be found. One of the people at our table ordered some tacos they enjoyed, so there is that. The kitchen ran out of fries, so some people had to wait an extra 10 minutes for those.
To the server’s credit, he was attentive and polite. I just wish he would have admitted he had no idea what he was talking about.
Once again, go somewhere else. You get get better food almost in any direction you could walk from this place.

Cool spot in the Warehouse District of New Orleans. Large dining room and plenty of televisions for sports watching. The happy hour menu cannot be beat. $ 5 full size appetizers and $ 6 drinks (3 to 7pm). The beer selection is very good and they do serve other types of alcohol as well.

Had a great time here for Happy Hour with co-​workers. The food, drinks, staff and atmosphere was great. My card did accidentally get charged twice, but the manager, David, was super helpful and easy to get in touch with. He credited me back for the over charge and the actual charge and gave me a gift card for my next visit. Now that’s what I call superior customer service. It will also make me a lifelong customer!

Food is good but service is awful. Food is over priced too and cocktails not as good as you hope.
Fried pickles were good. Steak sandwich was decent. French onion soup was dreadful.
Seems more like a place that caterers to a group of buddies of the manager. Service was so bad I had to leave my table and track down my server and ask for a spoon for my soup.

This is a cool place for what it is — a trendy sports bar. There are hundreds of beers to choose from and the servers were very friendly. I also tried the shrimp tacos which were dynamite. The atmosphere was lively.

I really love this bar and have never had a bad experience like some of the reviews I have seen. Me and my friends were there for the LSU bs Alabama game and they also enjoyed themselves. A good friend of mine was in from Germany and he was even impressed with the German beer selection. The food is good and I will say did take some time but they were slammed that night, every other time we have been it been fairly quick. Overall I would highly recommend this place especially for watching some sports and the quality of beer selection!

Service was terrible. Probably the worst service we have ever received anywhere. The interior is beautiful, and very accommodating to watch sporting events. We came in toward the tail end of the Saints game to watch the Seahawks play after them. I can go on and on about the terrible service so I will spare you. We had raw meatballs come out and that was the only time we saw what I think was the manager. She took care of the meatballs. If there was a manager on duty, they should have recognized people near us sitting down for several minutes without being noticed. We saw mutiple people leave after sitting down. If this was my restaurant, I would want to be aware of money walking out the door. My girlfriend and I just moved to the area and will be hesitant to give this another try. A place that is know for beer and not offer pitchers was surprising. Very disappointed with our visit.

The space, the location, the beer and the food are all very good, but the service left a bad taste in my mouth. Met some friends for a ball game Sunday afternoon. The service was the worst I’ve ever experienced in NOLA, and it wasn’t just out table. The table next to us said they wanted 30 minutes for their check. At least two other parties got up and left because they were never served.
Sorry WOB, beer alone won’t cut in this city!

On Halloween night I brought 5 people to this bar who came in to New Orleans all the way from Buffalo, NY. We take our seats and wait literally ½ hour for service. And no the bar was not so busy that we could not be tended to. In fact we actually had to go to the bar to place our beer order where we were told they were out of 2 out of the 3 beers we requested. When I finally got our server’s attention to ask for water, she immediately turns around and begins to clean the table behind us before getting the water.
I live in this area, and I recommended this place b/​c I am supposed to know what I am talking about. I will NEVER recommended this place to a tourist again. I was embarrassed and humiliated. It will not happen again.

The beer selection is insane! Beer is cold. :) Wings were not very tasty. Fries were pretty greasy. BUT! The chipotle chicken sandwich was very good, as was the black bean burger. Tvs on every wall. Friendly staff. Overall good experience. I recommend going if you enjoy beer and sports!

Nearly empty when some colleagues and I came in at 11pm on Thursday night, after wandering back from an excursion to Bourbon Street. Bar is really clean, has plenty of high top seating, and overall laid back, modern ambience. Decent selection of beer, and yay for closing happy hour specials.
Food takes quite a long time to come out from the kitchen, even though we were one of only 3 parties there, and we only ordered one food item. Also to note, there was a long hair in the flatbread pizza we ordered (all females at the table wore short hair), and I had to pull the hair out of my mouth. Normally I and don’t make much a fuss and just toss out or eat around it, but it was pretty long and gross, so the waitress brought us out a new pizza. Took another 20+ minutes, didn’t get comped on our bill for it. Good thing it was our last night in town and everyone was baby-​ing their beers, otherwise we would have been out of there by the time the pizza came out.

For the price it just really doesn’t work for me. You can get better quality food that tastes much better at local places in the area. You can get better prices on the same beers at other local places in the area. It is a nice space and has a great set up for watching sports. The service is really friendly and attentive. They do have some beers other joints in the area don’t have so that would be about the only reason I could think of having a desire for coming here.
Ultimately the sad reality facing this place is that mediocre food just doesn’t cut it in NOLA so if you can’t bring an «A» game of deliciousness you will fail at scoring high marks. Seriously just don’t even bother with their burger as there are fast food chains that make better versions than this bar chain. Leave this place to the tourists if you’re a local and used to our great NOLA food and our superior burgers.

I happened upon this on a Thursday afternoon while my wife was at a convention. Its within walking distance of the convention center. It reminded me of a Starbucks the serves beer. Free wifi, lofty/​industrial design, with a few areas with couches and comfy club chairs… The hot honey wings on the happy hour menu were on point. Friendly and attentive waitresses. Would be a good place to watch games too.

Great spot for good beer, food and live music. The beer selection was a bit overwhelming but they have iPads that make selecting a beer easier. My server Anna was very knowledgable and patient while helping figure out which beer I wanted.
I tried the Day of the Dead chocolate stout and the Lazy Magnolia southern pecan ale, both were exactly what I was looking for.
As for the food I had the pesto grilled chicken sandwich with a side of their coleslaw and for dessert the waffle s’more bites (amazing!!). For bar food it definitely impressed me.

Game changer in the warehouse district. Honestly, I wasn’t too excited about a beer focused CHAIN moving into my neighborhood, but boy was I wrong and so glad I was!
The food is delicious! Yes, it is officially bar food, but it is amazing bar food that is reasonable priced. I have tried a ton of items on the menu, and each is better than the one before. Bonus– they have this amazing brunch deal where it is $ 22 for an entrée and bottomless mimosas, bloodies and beermosas.
Not to mention the great TVs, incredible staff, great atmosphere, occasional band, gigantic beer selection (but also a full bar)… Hurry up and get to WOB, it will not dissapoint!

Best beer game in the city now, super tasty bar food, top-​notch service, loaded with TVs for football season, accessible with easy parking for downtown = awesome addition to the CBD

Love World of Beer! Great location with lots of TVs and space. This will be «the» place to watch sports. I gave a 4 stars because of the loyalty program not counting some of the beers on draught and the food was so-​so. Great service, knew his beers. The place wasn’t busy but I liked the service with a team approach. Live music and lounge chairs is a plus. When entering there is no hostess/​host check in so keep walking in till someone approaches you to be seated. The acoustics is not conducive to romantic conversations. The place was loud even when it wasn’t busy. Overall a great place for beers and bar food. I’ll be back!

Went here the day after it opened as we were eager to check it out since they finally opened one up downtown. The atmosphere is very chill, I really like what they did with the old warehouse. They implemented an iPad system to help you choose any beer you could possibly want that is pretty neat. Good happy hour and good food. Check it out I don’t think you would be disappointed, a good spot for that area, it needed it!
