Spend the night inside a historic musical landmark at the Dew Drop Inn Hotel & Lounge.

Small-scale, neighborhood-centric restaurants on and near Oretha Castle Haley Boulevard add to Central City’s understated charm. Enjoy smoked meat and barbecue at Central City BBQ or Southern comforts and soul food at Café Reconcile.

Beloved local bars can be found throughout Central City, many of them just a short distance from St. Charles Avenue.

Mix it up with a cooking class at Deelightful Roux School of Cooking, explore great tastes at Southern Food & Beverage Museum, and take in the exhibits at the Ashé Cultural Arts Center.
