A & O
Things To Do
Parkway Bakery & Tavern
Listen - not all po'boys are treated equally. If you want the REAL DEAL, you come to Parkway!
Neyow's Creole Café
Listen, the service is not what you come here for - don't expect the warm and fuzzies. But if you want a fun, casual ambiance and some good food, this spot doesn't disappoint! They also have happy hour during the 3-8 PM - so take advantage of that! We like the smoked sausage, the red beans and rice, fried catfish, the stuffed crab po'boy and we LOVE the chargrilled oysters and the praline pound cake. YUM YUM YUM!!!
Cajun Seafood
If you want a taste of Nawlins seafood boil, look no further! Get ready to get your hands dirty, no need to dress up and don't expect anything fancy about this place. But prepared to stuff your face with seafood by the pound!
Olde Nola Cookery
Listen - the bread pudding is top tier! But that's the only thing you order here. Get the sauce on the side (Omar's a fan, Ashley is not) and go enjoy with a cup of coffee.
Famous Door
Depending on which band is playing that night, you can catch some good live music in the French Quarter. It's very LOUD but the drinks are cheap and the atmosphere is always fun and lively.
21st Amendment Bar at La Louisiane
This is one of our favorite spots in the French Quarter. Stop here for amazing cocktails and even better live jazz music!
City Park
So much here...Morning Call, Botanical Gardens, NOMA, Sculptures, old trees, birds, water, bridges, fountains, so peaceful, relaxing, well laid out. Free parking. Everything here is free or almost free. Get one of the rental bikes and have a relaxing moment with nature.
Garden District
For a day of taking in the New Orleans architecture through the historic mansions, put on some comfy walking shoes and head to the nearest street car stop. Riding through the Garden District on the St. Charles Avenue Streetcar is simply a must (part of the oldest continuously operating street railway system in the world, dating back to 1832). Download the Le Pass app to book your ticket.
