We had some time to kill before boarding our cruise and the $5 Irish Car Bombs caught my eye. I guess we're going to Ryan's. This Irish pub is located a few blocks from Bourbon Street. You can sit at the bar, a booth or table towards the back. Nice and warm.....New Orleans was in the 20s that weekend. Positives: + 2 Irish car bombs & a pint of Guinness under $20. + Great bartender/Service. + nice to watch Tottenham Hotspur playing and winning. + good music playing in the background + not too loud like other bars. Easy 5 stars for me. read more

Ryan's Irish Pub - Pint of Guinness - Irish Pub Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Cute little french Quarter dive bar. Nice booths, lighting. We stopped in for a little Irish Coffee roadie, which was advertised on an A-frame outside. Upon ordering, it took them 20 minutes to brew a pot of coffee. While I do believe and respect that bartending in New Orleans requires grit and a bit of sass, I thought the service here was a bit misanthropic. Either way, it was a good drink and a clean bar, I'd certainly stop in again. read more

Ryan's Irish Pub - Irish Pub Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

If you're in the French Quarter and craving a proper Guinness without getting gouged, Ryan's Irish Pub delivers. Finding a $6 Guinness in this area feels like a small win. The pub has that classic Irish bar vibe, dim lighting, friendly energy, and a laid-back crowd. It's a solid place to duck into for a break from the chaos outside, whether you're starting the night or winding it down. Bartenders are efficient and friendly, the pour is solid, and the atmosphere feels unpretentious. No frills, no gimmicks, just a straightforward pub doing what it's supposed to do. Not a destination spot, but absolutely a reliable one. If you're nearby and want a reasonably priced beer in the Quarter, this is an easy yes. read more

Great time. The atmosphere was amazing. Great place to go grab a few drinks, watch a sports game or just catch up with some friends.

A great "Irish" bar that nobody really knows about that happens to have a great beer selection at a great price. They have a great draft beer lineup that includes alot of local beers. This place is often a stop on our bike rides because its one of the few bars we like in the quarter thats not trying to rip you off. read more

Great pub to have a pint while visiting the French Quarter. Good service. Friendly locals and out of towners. And to top it off a great conversation with Stanley and Pork Chop at the end of the bar. read more

Great sports bar, great for watching NFL games. Staff was great as well! Great atmosphere, especially if you're a Saints fan.

I was thrilled when I found this spot because it was my best friend's bachelor weekend and the perfect way to get the Friday started. It's quite an old spot with an Irish pub feel. They had a few gambling machines that some of my friends partook. We had seltzers and beer to get things started and took some photos because it's "the best fucking Irish bar in the world". I can only imagine this place next weekend. I will be coming back here one day and getting toasty. The help was great and there's plenty of seating. read more

Carly was very rude checking our IDs and when asking about their bathroom location. Seemed she likes the money and business of St. Patrick's day, but didn't care that the people giving her the money are the customers. read more

Irish pubs are known for drinking, conversation, and being great places to gather and get to know others over a few drinks. Friendly staff, informal atmosphere, and a sense of community are hallmarks of an Irish Pub and Ryan's checks all the boxes. A cozy place ideal for connection, conversation, and to gather information from locals and bar staff. Our bartender was very helpful in choosing places to eat, visit, and browse in and around the French Quarter. If you know your Irish Pubs then you'll understand to belly up to the bar and enjoy the casual, friendly atmosphere. read more

Ryan's Irish Pub - ...we don't need any characters around to give the joint "atmosphere". - Irish Pub Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Ryan's is a CLEAN IRISH pub. There is quite a bit of space. The drinks are affordable with a hefty Irish pour. The bartender, I didn't catch her name. She was great, though. Easy to talk to, friendly and open-minded :) read more

It's a bar, it's in the quarter - of course it's dark and loud but. It's owned by a real Irish man, they have Smithwiicks "Smitticks" and Guinness. I prefer the red ale.

Fantastic selection of beer and spirits, fantastic service, fantastic prices, and a fantastic ambiance. Come to Ryan's when you're tired of paying too much for mediocre drinks and the alcohol-fueled stupidity of the bars on Bourbon Street. This is my go-to place in Nola. read more

Ryan's is my go to for a properly poured Guinness and so my dude can watch whatever game is on. Irish car bombs are $5. Full bar and service is straightforward. It's on the main drag so the place definitely gets rowdy but I love day drinking for a game here. One of the few places you can almost always pop into a booth with a group also which I like. read more

A fun, loud, chaotic Irish pub close to Bourbon Street. Get an Irish car bomb, its a great way to kick off the evening!

Friendly staff but only one non alcohol beer and not even one made by Guinness so that is disappointing. It is time bars start to think of the people who for a variety of reasons do not drink alcohol. I would have given one star except for the staff who was nice about it and apologized. read more

Great dive bar with attentive bartenders and friendly clientele. When you want another drink the bartenders pay attention and don't take their time chatting with regulars as you wait. read more

Always great friendly service no matter how crowded it is. Great location in the quarter, lots of TVs. It's always our go to for sports bars

Decent atmosphere. Friendly staff and good drink selection. Several TVs for multiple sports options.

5 dollar Irish car bombs? Ummmmmm say less. By the time I was leaving, I was properly intoxicated. I wanted to stay longer but we were tired from coming from a show at House of Blues. Drinks were greatly priced and the bartender was friendly. read more

Had a great time. Came here to watch the football game. Good beer list and awesome bartender! Thank you Cherise!

I like how every city has a Ryan's. It may not always bear the same name, but there is an Irish pub that has the same characteristics. New Orleans' version of that did not disappoint. My first night here was all about discovery. I had no particular destination in mind when I left my hotel and no plan on what to do for my evening. I knew Bourbon Street was nearby but I didn't want my New Orleans experience to be nothing but Bourbon Street. While out with friends we decided to venture down Decatur Street, and we were not disappointed. After a few stops here and there we happened upon Ryan's. I'm always up for a good pub experience no matter where I go. Whether it be in the UK or a small town in Pennsylvania. Walking in it was what I expected. Nothing flashy but there was warmth coming from this place, and it wasn't just the humidity from outside. We went right up to the bar and asked what was good and on tap. With a smile the bartender ran through the list without even giving it a second thought. My friend got a half and half, which the bartender did a perfect pour on. I decided to try the Summer Shandy they had on tap. Great choices, at least we thought. We then headed over to a high top table and drank those down. I took in my surroundings and had a pleasant time. The decor is Irish, or course, maps, crests, etc. Seems to be a great place to catch a ballgame as well. They have signs that says they will have all ballgames playing, if I remember correctly. read more

Ryan's Irish Pub - Great beer selection! - Irish Pub Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

The rudest bartender I have ever met. She has insulted half the customers I the bar and I literally think she thinks it's cool to treat people like s....! I just wanted a drink and she has ignored us for 20 minutes while literally telling people to fuk off because they had to wait! It's embarrassing! I will never set foot in here again. I'm a local I'm not a tourist! Just a joke for a bartender who thinks she is special because she is working! She has possessed off about half of the people here with the attitude! read more

Irish car bombs were good. Blue moon was perfect temperature. Very clean and welcoming bar staff. Highly recommend read more

Cheap beer good vibe definitely will be going back. And dog friendly brought the pup and they gave him a treat right off the bat.

Some of the worst service I have had in so long ...Two girls bartending (one was lovely and polite other rude and short) could not even pour a pint of Guinness correctly! Gave me a pint of Smithwicks that was end of barrel and when I pointed it out she was upset she had to change it and then when came up she took half of old beer and ran the new keg into the glass which if you can bartend you know is all head until it ran up the top of glass ..worst pint ...luckily other bartender was nice and replaced it after I pointed out the issue ...Grumpy bartender then goes over to her boy within earshot of myself and my wife and proceeds to bash us that we know nothing about beer ect ect ..not many quality bar staff left ...Shame I would have stayed here longer if it was not for this as it is a nice spot ! read more

St Patrick's Day all day, this pub was a magnet for happy, pleasant people, enjoying the outdoor environment. I didnt go inside, but several said it was very nice and friendly environment. I suspect those wearing-o-the-green were even more cheerful as they imbibed. read more

Fun accommodating, dive bar. Bar tender was super nice. We went on a Sunday so it was pretty slow. We had are bags which wasn't a problem.

We watched Vegas Golden Knights/Avalanche Game 4 here while on vacation! Jessica is amazing and so attentive!! Loved this place and recommend for everyone to stop by and say hi! Ok read more

Ryan's Irish Pub - Irish Pub Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

I meannnnnn a great alcohol and beer selection, awesome bartender (hey CAROLYN!), regulars, nice tourists and multiple tv's. Ryan's Pub is just a great bar all around. It's a plus it's in walking distance to many food places and attractions. You can bring in outside food and there's actually an agreement with the seafood restaurant neighbors where they'll deliver your order to the bar! (They have great oysters, fyi) Can you say "winning!"??!!! Also, when i used to work at the Westin Hotel, I'd recommend Ryan's for a venue to watch the NHL games; being that New Orleans isn't a hockey city but Ryan's comes through in the clutch and air "all hockey games", as advertised at the entrance. read more
