Named after its stunning views of Lake Pontchartrain, Lakeview is a destination for seafood lovers and those seeking phenomenal sunsets.
With its proximity to Lake Pontchartrain, you won’t want to miss this neighborhood’s seafood options, like Station 6 Seafood & Oyster Bar. Or dig in at Filmore in the Oaks, Sala, Safta’s Table, or The Velvet Cactus.
Lakefront bars and casual pubs showcase the relaxed nature of this part of town.
Explore the same friendly neighborhood shops that locals frequent in Lakeview, particularly those along Harrison Avenue.
Catch a stunning sunset on the lakefront, visit the New Canal Lighthouse Museum, or picnic on the levee facing the lake. For a bird’s-eye view of the city, book a tour with New Orleans Aerial Tours.
