I had no idea what to expect but it really was a such a pleasant spot (that kind of just comes up out of nowhere!) We found parking easily on the street across from the building itself. It's an open space inside with a small stage (see photos) and for this show they were only asking for a donation. They take credit cards, cash, and checks. The staff was so friendly! There is a bathroom inside as well. I'm sure whatever you end up visiting for with be so relaxing and pleasant that you'll be looking forward to coming again next time you're in town! Such a unique spot in New Orleans.

New Ireland needs to step it up quite a bit to stay in business IMO.

I've seen several shows here, including The Lion King, The Color Purple, and a few comedy performances, and it's always a memorable night.
