A bartender saw us languishing in the crowded bar and took us through the dining room into an unmarked cocktail bar called Richelieu. Do that.

Legit cocktail bar . Order a Sazerac or just ask the bartenders as they know what they're doing when it comes to drinks. If Chris Hannah is working be sure to get his bar / food recommendations.

This is the type of bar that you just let the bartender make whatever he feels like for you. There's a small museum upstairs that showcases how rich and elegant the Arnaud's family was.

The bar is connected to Arnaud's Restaurant and is the best place to go to start you visit to the city . Start with some cocktails & souffléd potatoes .

This is a fancy cocktail bar!! Not stuffy tho so rest easy. You must get a Sazerac and a French 75. Grab a cigar and smoke inside.

Great service and delightful cocktails . The cheese stuffed cheese balls (yes that’s a thing) are heavenly cheesy cloud balls in your mouth omg get some.

Inside this 95-year-old space, Chris Hannah mixes a French 75 made with Cognac instead of gin , as well as concoctions like the fiery Caipa De Gallos. Read more

Have Chris make you a drink. Enjoy the atmosphere. Its a cigar bar but even if you hate smoke you have to go in and at least get one drink.

Get one Sazerac w rye (the popular but later version) & one with cognac (this is the original)--compare. Sunday hours are bar menu til 10pm, drinks to 11:30pm-ish.

Such a classic place. Came one day in jeans and another day in full dress with a wedding party including a bride in her dress and a groom in his kilt. Received the great same service both nights.

All the goodness (and none of the pretense) of the cocktail renaissance...but it never died here to begin with, just so ya know....

Go before 6pm and get a seat at the bar while everyone else is being seated in the dining room—and don’t forget the cognac .

The French 75 is pricey , but worth it. Ask if you can see the upstairs rooms with Mardi Gras gowns of years past.

When at the French 75, order the French 75! You won't regret it ????

Get the house drink. You won't be disappointed. Great atmosphere and great drink prices for the quality.

The cocktail program is spot on and the bartenders knowledgable and friendly .

Have the eponymous drink (it's delicious) and then if it's not too busy, have Vince make you something off-menu.

Have a sazerac & some fried oysters . You won't be disappointed.

Most any classic cocktail is good here. Try a Pegu Club.

Awesome classy cocktail bar . Bring your cigar and have Chris Hannah craft you one of his creations, Amertinez.

Get the French 75, they make it the real French way with cognac , not gin . It's delicious.

Creole Old Fashioned - Wild Turkey bourbon , creole syrup & creole bitters

Potato soufflé and a french 75 please! This place is classy so keep it classy people!

After you have a drink, be sure to visit the upstairs room to look at Germaine's mardi gras dresses . (its a museum )

Classic old-school bar with a fancy vibe. Try a Sazerac cocktail .

Ask for dealers choice. Chris is one of the best bartenders in the city .

A Classic Cigar Bar with amazing cocktails .... so a must

Little touristy for what it is, but decent cocktails . Might as well make it a French 75!
