Nestled at 941 Bourbon Street in the heart of the French Quarter, this dimly lit, historic tavern claims a place among the oldest buildings in New Orleans. Inside, you’ll find a rustic atmosphere of exposed brick, candlelight, and a longtime piano set‑up where patrons chat, sing and linger. Live music often fills the back room as guests sip strong, colorful cocktails like the “Voodoo Daiquiri” or the classic Hurricane.
The bar is steeped in legend: the property is traditionally linked with the pirate brothers Jean Lafitte and Pierre Lafitte, reputed to have used the site as the base for their smuggling operation in the late 18th century.
When you visit, expect a lively social vibe, the possibility of ghost‑stories whispered by locals, and plenty of great photo‑moments — if you can snag a seat amidst the crowd.
