This is hands down my favorite bar in New Orleans ! They make the best bloody mary and have incredible happy hour deals too. The interior is a vibe, great crowds and fun music. Always a go-to when I'm in town. CAN'T RECOMMEND THIS PLACE ENOUGH !! Also Tara is the best !! read more

High Grace used to be Johnny White's, a 24/7 watering hole beloved by many. It's still 24/7 and there are still folks in the bar at 5 am having a good ole time. The early morning crowd are a bit rowdy, but the hip-hop music is always bumping so I just go with the groove as I walk on by towards the Mississippi for a run. I finally decided to drop in on a Friday afternoon for a drink. The bartender was an absolute sweetheart, and he was playing some killer '80s tunes in honor of Southern Decadence. I soaked it all up while admiring the funky décor, which included an homage to Johnny White's, a crow in a top hat, a Voodoo King Doll, and dollar bills on the wall. Happy Hour is daily from 8 am - 3 pm with $5 drink specials. I ordered the Lavender Lemonade - a happy hour special. It was tasty and refreshing. I regret that it took me so long to come here. I'll be adding this place to my regular rotation list. read more

Came here last night with colleagues. As we were in town for a conference. The place was great. Everyone was friendly and the vibes were great. My friends enjoys their drinks and I enjoyed my water. Great spot near Jackson Square read more

I walked into High Grace one afternoon on a whim. I walked by, and it seemed like people were having a good time in there. When I went in, it was very welcoming, and the bartender was very quick to serve me. I tried their specialty, lavender lemonade with some gin. The drink was amazing, both taste and strength. Everyone there was very nice, upbeat, and fun. I ended up going there two more times before I left town! read more

Nice bartender, good prices (especially considering the proximity to Bourbon Street) and delicious steak quesadillas!

Low rating as the owner Rob minimizes issues in his community and his boot licking mentality is an issue. The drinks were good though but will not return again. read more

Sign outside the bar stated 5 dollars beers all day. We were going to order the bar lady said sign was wrong and she thought about it and said 9 dollars. We left for principle. We had no reason to go back, bar next door had 5 dollar beers . read more

Awesome place! Kate was our incredible bartender, serving up awesome beers/drinks. Had such a great experience, we returned 90 minutes later! If Kate is behind the bar, you're in great condition! Cool jukebox as well read more

One of many shotgun style dive bars on St. Philip. Close to Pat O's. This used to be the old Johnny White's (RIP to that great bar). Not much has changed other than some new branding. The inverted Nike logo with the slogan "Over do it" is clever. Really great bar tenders. It' s not as cheap as it used to be. The bathrooms are abysmal. It has a Touchtunes juke box. My main complaint is that the music is always so loud, you can barely hear the person sitting next to you. It's weird to see Malort on a bar menu and their Michelada (which is fantastic) is called the Chi-town Michelada which makes me wonder if there's a Chicago connection (cursory Google didn't reveal anything). read more

Only go for Regan!!! read more

This is a self-described dive bar- but for some reason, even as a local, I wasn't expecting the music to be blaring. Everyone had to yell to be heard- the person sitting directly next to me at the bar, the bartender to me, me to the bartender. Service was friendly but we had to go elsewhere solely because of the volume level. read more

a place to dive right into NOLA and meet some lokes after partying hard at all the clubs recommended to you by the girls who went on a bach trip here! my bartender (stephen?!!) overheard me talking about my music preferences and started playing hits! what an attention to detail (and talk about a hefty pour!). read more

High Grace NOLA is a must stop, right off of Bourbon Street! We initially stopped in for a quick drink and ended up staying for hours and going back 3 more times (different days), because the bartenders and the owner are THE BEST, thank you Rob, Regan and Jason. Your warm welcome, generosity in sharing favorite restaurants, and really great company were a true highlight of our vacation. We will be back (all the way from California!):) read more

Bad drink, terrible service. Bartender was rude with a ton of attitude. She was also incapable of telling me what was in the listed drinks, and even described one as "it's basically all of our shittiest alcohol in one drink." When I giggled at that description, she had even more attitude. read more

Coconut instead of passionfruit in a hurricane. Somehow worse than the gallon mix. Shittiest bartenders in New Orleans.

High Grace is amaze balls, Rob has been amazing and the service has been incredible. We love visiting New Orleans and used to frequent Johnny Whites whenever we were in town. Now we live here High Grace is fast becoming our go to local bar. The prices are cheap and the drinks are first class. Anyone who comes to NOLA really should come check it out. They won't want to leave. Johnny Whites legacy is in good hands. read more

I absolutely love this place. I immediately felt welcomed. Every time I return I feel like part of a family. Everyone is great, but if I singled out any employee it would be Regan. She is absolutely entertaining while giving great service. She's the first one that made me feel like more than a customer. Also, I definitely think they all give great service, but Regan gives off a special energy while she's working. read more

We were sent to this bar by Kyle from the Dungeon and we were told to ask for river and she was amazing. Really friendly and made me a drink that I was craving. She made me a malibu, soda, and lavender syrup cocktail and oh my god it's my new favorite drink. She greeted us when we first came in really friendly even though she didn't know we were there to sit at the bar for her service specifically. Will be back! read more

This is a great spot. My girlfriend and I stopped here as part of a Pride bar crawl.
