Lafitte's Blacksmith Shop Bar

Get the Voodoo Daquari!! It's not as sweet as the other slushes on the strip and gets you to where you want to be faster!

A must go place in NOLA. It’s historic and the atmosphere is amazing here. The bartenders are here are very kind. Was able to sit down here for hours and just enjoy my company.

Said to be the oldest bar in Louisiana (and one the oldest in the good ol’ US of A), it definitely had a rustic charm. The Sazerac I received from the friendly bartender was on point, and my wife loved the giant frozen purple drank thing she ordered. This is a popular spot, for sure. We got there early afternoon on a weekday and it wasn’t too crowded, but we passed by a couple times later over the weekend and it was crazy busy - which is probably alright if you like that kind of vibe. Definitely check it off your list when you’re in NOLA.
