Garden District Pub

Stopped in on a Saturday afternoon with some friends. Cool, chill little pub. Staff was very friendly and the drinks were good. That's pretty much all it takes to make me happy.

Are you trying to go to a bar to get laid? Go to the Saint.Are you trying to go to a bar to get drunk? Come here.Yes, this is a locals bar but luckily the locals are some of the friendliest people around, unless your taste in music sucks and you monopolize the jukebox. In that case they will turn on you like mayo in the sun.The prices are average and the bartenders are cheeky. They are mostly young attractive girls, so If you are one of those guys that likes to get drunk and harass the bartender you will most likely have 5 to 10 locals ready to cave your skull in. Oh, and the corner seat near the cigarette machine belongs to Dr. Porter. When he shows up, sit somewhere else.

I have driven by this bar an untold number of times during the day, and always wanted to check it out. It is located on the one-way section of Magazine, which gets less foot traffic than the more busy two way traffic section. Because of this it had a distinct neighborhood bar feel. Even though I was treated well, I got a weird vibe like I was an outsider (which I was).One feature that I really liked was the couch area. It was located towards the back, which made it a more quiet conversation space. There was a decent beer selection, and service was friendly and prompt. The bartender was even nice when I drank only water.In summary, the couch area is great, I liked it, but felt like I was imposing on the neighborhood crowd. I would probably come back, but next time I will head straight for the couch.

Solid neighborhood watering hole. The bartender was fine and the crowd was lively but I felt like I was crashing the party...not really sure why.Drinks were affordable; there was a decent selection; it wasn't too smokey when I was here but then again it was more like 9ish than the wee super drunken smokerific hours.Maybe if this was all my friends hung out...

Go on Thursday for the crawfish boil. You go in and seat yourself. The crawfish man is just outside the patio area making up fresh crawfish! You order at the bar if you want because there is no table service. Then when the crawfish is done, you walk up to him and pay and take your to-go container full of crawfish back to your table. (One order is perfect for 2 people.) We also ordered fries that were covered in cheese. They were amazing!! I loved my experience here because the food is great, everyone is so nice, and the atmosphere is relaxed and fun.

This is a really cozy quiet bar located near the beginning of Magazine in sort of a neutral zone of quietness. I find this an excellent talking bar. If you have some issues to hammer out or wanna spill your guts out for past sins, you can do it hear without shouting.I came here initially because I had to pee really bad and we stayed and ordered a few beers and started the vent session. This isn't a place I seeked out, but for what its worth, I am glad that I got to try it.If your going to eat at Juans or something close by, walk out your food and dip your big water head in here for a few drafts and talk.

Affordable drinks and the music is awesome. Classic rock and roll goes fantastic with a nice strong drink

This is one of my favorite bars. Leticia, Sami, and Sarah rock! Y'all get your butts on down here and have a great time! Awesome regulars and always fun.

This place is classic, it's at simple as that. Great people, lots of regulars and good music. GDP I'll be back!

Sami!!! You are the bomb!! I love how sweet your were to me and my girlfriends when we came in this weekend
