Just a leisurely streetcar ride away from the French Quarter, Uptown is populated by 19thcentury homes, an impressive zoo, award-winning restaurants, and a prominent university scene.
Everywhere from historic B&Bs to big-name hotels are great places to experience this lovely residential area.
Enjoy breakfast at Café Malou, evolving Indian at Saffron NOLA or Nirvana, “polite provisions” at Pigeon & Whale, elevated comfort food at Mother of Pearl, or a slice at NOLA Brewing & Pizza. Pair fine food and cocktails at Audubon Clubhouse, plus stock up at St. James Cheese Shop.
From college and local dive bars to craft cocktail lounges, there’s no shortage of lively spots. Pop into Cure and Port Orleans Brewing Co.
Magazine Street and beyond offer local boutiques and shops specializing in everything from clothing and jewelry to antiques, art, and home decor. Favorites include Perlis, Mignon Faget, and NOLA Couture.
Take a blacksmithing class at Church Mouse Forge, catch a show at Tipitina’s, or hit up Audubon Zoo and the Newcomb Art Museum.
