    Cute little bar off Bourbon Street with an outside patio. There's a lot on the food menu, but a select few items for dairy intolerance & not fried. I ordered the shrimp Etouffee with white rice that has a LOT of heat, but I enjoyed the flavor. The shrimp are small, but not tiny & I would've preferred deveined. Our waitress was nice, helpful & fast to serve us.

    The bar!

    The bartender was super helpful and friendly with our meal order. Has a great vibe. Just arrived in town, was hungry, and this place just said try me! Had the jambalaya and the flavor is great!

    A local bartender recommended this place to us for beignets. We came here for takeout one night after drinking on Bourbon street. My boyfriend got a blackened shrimp poboy and my liquid courage had me ordering something I wouldn't normally order- a peanut butter burger. We also got mozzarella sticks. We failed at getting the beignets. The staff here are so friendly. Especially the doorman. But really they're all great. We appreciated the good customer service and friendly demeanor. Inside is small but typical bar environment. We got our food to go and ate at our hotel. The mozzarella sticks were really good and the marinara was delish!! The peanut butter burger was surprisingly good. My boyfriend liked his shrimp poboy, although it wasn't the best he's had in NOLA. We went back the following day and got more mozzarella sticks and the beignets. The beignets were good. I have nothing to compare them to, but we did enjoy them overall. We will definitely return to the copper monkey!

    We needed food stat from a day of drinking and this did the job!!! Service was good, pretty quick considering. Food wasn't mind blowing, but that's ok.

    Traveling in from Nebraska for the weekend and staying in the french quarter. It's giving hole-in-the-wall and it wasn't that busy (yet)...i'm talking the door guy was reading a book. Which I liked, because once the streets are blocked off there's a line. So if you don't know better, go early. We all had a drink and the bartender was friendly. The food wasn't as good as you would expect for a local spot. Someone walking outside kept saying "get the Whitney special"...which I don't know who whitney is, but I got it. We also had wings, red beans and rice and Étouffée... I'm not sure how I feel about the food. I mean it was okay, but you could taste that it wasn't fresh ingredients. Think soup in a bag...the whitney was just okay. The potato was powdered mash, and the cheese was abundant and if I had know that was the amount, I would have asked them to go easy on the cheese. The chicken was good though...tender and flavorful. This dish has potential...if I was cooking this at home, I would mash fresh potatoes, used freshly shredded cheese. The wings and fries were good and surprisingly everything was priced decent considering we were in a tourist area. Would I go back, yes, but not for the food. It would be the drinks and the friendly service.

    Super good food, reasonable prices, and great service as well. We ordered a quesadilla, Turkey club, crab cakes, and a shrimp po boy. Everyone liked their food. Would definitely go back!

    Piped down a bad bitch in the bathroom after doing a rail off her ass! Got a couple of beers and a burger and went about my business. Bathrooms could be a bit cleaner!

    Stopped in when we got to town for something to eat. I had po-boy and fries it was good. My mom had the blt and pasta salad. The bacon was very crispy and salad had way too much dressing on it to the point it was not edible. Husband had chicken Sammie it was nothing special but okay. The bartender was great very friendly and helpful.

    Monkey Buns!

    Copper Monkey was right next door to our hotel, so we stopped there quite a bit. We had drinks there like once a day. All the bartenders (there's only 4 total) are so friendly. We had dinner there one night with Aaron as the bartender, I got the BLT wrap, and he got the club wrap. I regret not trying the gumbo, but I needed a break from all the Cajun and Creole on that day. Aaron was a cool guy to talk to. He has been to a ton of baseball stadiums, so we got to chat about that for a while, and the playlist was great. The ceiling is painted really cool. It's just pretty there. The next morning, I really wanted to try their monkey buns, which are beignets with bananas, and they are out of this world. I love the banana sauce so much!!! V was working that morning. She is just so sweet! I got the order to go so I could enjoy them on my balcony.

    First of all, I have a biased opinion as I believe that, when in doubt of where to go, go to the adjective-animal bar. Second, this depends on what you are looking for. We were killing time before our night flight, and I wanted a bar with comfy bar seats, sports on the TV, and reasonable prices. This fit the bill. If it is cold that day, sit on the right side of bar (that is where the heater is). V (with complicated full name) was AWESOME as the bartender. Not only did we feel the great service, but everyone who came in also got the same service. She was on her game. We didn't eat the food, but everyone who did looked happy. Definitely worth a stop when in New Orleans. Definitely recommend and see you there (the next time I am in New Orleans).

    Naked wings and tots, sauce on the side.

    See all

    If you don't want spicy, try the gumbo with rice. It's delicious! Service was excellent!
