A MUST SEE SPOT IN NEW ORLEANS!! Quite literally my favorite place in the area of Bourbon Street and the French quarter.? I'll tell you the ambience is elevated above the surrounding area when you walk into the establishment there is a courtyard prior to entering the serving/bar area that creates a separation between the grime for lack of a better word of Bourbon Street and the downtown New Orleans area. There's also a beautiful Irish museum it's just one room but well maintained with wonderful pictures and history of the Irish in New Orleans which just sets it apart from any other establishment that I went to. And then you have the bar area the Irish coffee there without a doubt is the best that I've ever had.
Should definitely treat yourself if nothing else to the Irish coffee it's amazing for lack of a better word he goes down very smooth it has a nice bitterness paired with sweetness and the whiskey gives it just the right kick it's a great pre dinner drink to get to the right spirit!
There's wonderful group of whiskey selection if you are not experienced in whiskey the owner was more than happy to spend time with us telling us about whiskey and aging processes and distilling very informative just an overall pleasant gentleman. I believe his name was Michael he's the owner who runs it with his children just a great place I mean if you're down and New Orleans you have to check...

Lines are always short, coffee is well priced and delicious, staff is always kind.
Do you miss a medium latte being $5?
Do you miss real conversation with staff at coffee shops? Where you actually engage and get to know one another? This is your place then!
The coffee also tastes DIVINE. Most places these days make sugar bombs they call coffee that I canโt have with my fitness goals, or espresso shots that taste burnt. St. Pats offers amazing very lightly sweet lattes and their other espresso dominant options are so smooth.
AND WE HAVENT EVEN GOTTEN TO THE VIBES. The courtyard seating is an oasis you usually only find at swanky overpriced restaurants in the quarter!!! Iโve seen people sit outside to chat, scroll socials or spend hours working on their computers. It really fits all your needs
PARKING HACK: park on N rampart ($2 an hour or so street parking) and walk down conti. Great walk with cute buildings.
This place truly has it all....
ย ย ย Read moreWhat an amazing find as I was taking a stroll through the streets with no particular destination in mind on my first day of vacation. It was early in the day and I was looking for somewhere to sit and plan out where to go until my friends arrived. Mike made these gorgeous and delicious drinks for me while I sat to make my plans. He offered the wifi password and brief but charming conversation. The Irish music playing in the background was upbeat and infectious. I was tapping my foot to the rhythm and Mike suggested if I liked it to stop by Sunday evenings for live Irish music! Unfortunately, my friends had already made reservations elsewhere for dinner but on my next trip, I'll definitely be...
