Things to Do

Our Favorite Breakfast Spot

Our absolute favorite is Café du Monde. It’s a must-visit for their famous beignets and café au lait — a true New Orleans experience. Just a heads-up, it’s cash only, so be sure to bring some with you. Trust us, it’s totally worth it!

Our Favorite Bars

We loved Pat O’Brien’s for its lively courtyard and famous Hurricanes, The Vampire Café for its moody vibe and great drinks, and Good Friends Bar for its fun, welcoming atmosphere and strong pours. All in the French Quarter — all worth the stop!

Our Favorite Restaurant's

Some of our favorite spots include The Blue Bayou Restaurant & Oyster Bar — their charred oysters are absolutely to die for. Another gem we love is Rex House Kitchen & Courtyard. The duck gumbo? Mouthwatering. Both spots serve serious flavor and are perfect for a delicious night out in the city.
