Frenchmen Street Bar is a no-frills, cash-only dive that anchors the live music strip in the Marigny with cheap drinks and an open-air feel that spills onto the street. It's the perfect spot to grab a cold beer or a simple cocktail between sets at the nearby music clubs. Don't come expecting craft cocktails — this is about cold drinks, good people-watching, and the electric energy of Frenchmen Street. Gets extremely packed on weekends and during festival season.
