Me and a few of my family members came to New Orleans for the weekend and the Exchange only had 1 open play during the time we were available and it was for Advanced Beginners. Most of us are actually intermediate and when we got there, so were several other players, however, none of us seemed to mind playing with people that were either higher or lower level than us. I think there was only 1 person there that wasn't too friendly. They have a paddle stacking system and open play was on two courts. The staff was super friendly and very accommodating to us. The interior is gorgeous - 6 indoor and 1 outdoor courts, a bar, kitchen, ping pong table and plenty of seating. The inside looks a little small for large parties - outside might be more accommodating. I'm from Texas, so we're used to big spaces!For sure we will be back next time we come to NOLA!

One of the finest pickleball establishments around! There are 6 indoor courts and an outdoor court that you can rent. The indoor courts are clean, nicely paved and the balls have a nice bounce to them. The nets are permanent and sturdy so they do not use rollaway nets here. There are a few bars and tv's that make this place nice for parties and just hanging out in general. Would definitely recommend if you're in the area!

Pickleball and a bar all under one A/C'd roof? I'm down! My husband and I witnessed firsthand a Pickleball session on a cruise 2 years ago when we saw a couple playing on a reserved court. Time on the court had to be scheduled and unfortunately we snoozed on planning it out. As we watched this couple enjoy play, we vowed to seize the next opportunity. While vacationing in NOLA I typed in "Pickleball courts" on Yelp. Lo and behold, The Exchange popped up and it was less than a half hour from our hotel in the Warehouse District.We scheduled a Learn to Play session with an instructor. Unfortunately, the instructor assigned to our small group class of 6 bailed out on us. We had an evening class that was supposed to start at 5:30pm. It was already half past so their GM (Ray) stepped in and taught us the basics. Ray overall was an awesome trainer. He drilled us on the basic skills, was very patient with us and provided pointers on how to perfect stance and technique. We had a great time and went away with a bit of knowledge and appreciation for the game.I would love to see something like this in the Midwest. If you're a Pickleball fan or are curious about the sport, check The Exchange out.

PICKLEBALL!!!!! There are six indoor AIRCONDITIONED pickleball courts that you can rent for a set amount of time. You can also rent paddles or bring your own. It's a very chill but fun environment. Pickleball rental is kind of expensive though compared to other spots in the area but honestly might be worth it for the AC.They also have a food menu and a full bar! The menu is like elevated bar food with some interesting twists. Booze menu prices are pretty reasonable! I tried the strawberry citrus sangria and it was pretty good. I'd like to try their other cocktails.

I can't say enough about the facility and the staff at The Exchange. I traveled from CA for a fun weekend in NOLA and wanted to play while I was visiting. My Dad and I showed up last minute with no court booking or plan (which I don't recommend, for what it's worth) , but despite the place being very busy the staff could NOT have been more accommodating and friendly. They went above and beyond to get us on the courts and squeeze us in between lessons/private bookings happening. Additionally, the space is amazing and well-designed. The bar/lounge area is laid out perfectly between all the courts, a great place to relax and have a beer after (or during!) play. It was raining so we could not utilize the outdoor area but it looks like a great vibe out there as well. As someone who has been to various "Pickleball Bars" including Chicken N Pickle, The Exchange is a top tier space and great edition for the pickleball scene in New Orleans.

Great P'ball facility. They limit the # of players so you're pretty much playing constantly while you're there. Good level of play and great court conditions. Nice running it too.

I love coming to The Exchange for the open play pickleball! It is $16 for I think 2.5 hours and separated by skill level. They also do court rental. They have 6 indoor courts and 1 outdoor court. The ambiance here is great! It is super clean and has nice courts and a bar/seating area and the staff is very friendly and welcoming to new people. I haven't tried the food but I would definitely recommend coming for an open play our get some friends for a court rental.
