Well worth the hype, with a beautiful courtyard and amazing cocktails (you can even keep the glass!) that come with bags of tasty popcorn. Try the hurricane and the rainstorm!
Have tried Hurricanes all over the city & this one is still our favorite. The fountain & industrial fans are a great setting to enjoy a sultry evening. To-go cups always available.
Obviously, you're here so get a Hurricane. But branch out and try the other specialty drinks, all while enjoying some tunes at the piano bar or the outdoor patio.
I been here when I was in New Orleans, I already miss it, the drink i had was so good, my drink I had there it was called a rain bowl, I really like this place so much also I miss New Orleans so much
Huge space with classic bar, dueling piano stage (wonderful musicians), and an expansive outdoor patio/bar in the back... its known for the world-famous Hurricane drink (but it's not that good TBH)
Famous for its hurricanes and the piano bar, Pat O'Brien's is a NOLA staple. The courtyard is great on sunny days and the crowd is full of people of all kinds. Tip: Return your souvenir glass for $4.
Lord have mercy on me with this place! Not only is the Hurricanes grrrrreat, but the food is grrrreat too. The service was grrrreat as well! Another spot I have to visit whenever I'm in town! Loved it
hurricanes have gone downhill over the years - all sugar. stop in just to say u did but honestly any rumbar in town can make u a better one. courtyard is gorgeous & the rest of their drink menu great
Classic New Orleans bar. Hurricanes are great to try if you’re down with the worst hangover of all time the next day. The piano bar is where it’s at though.
Can't leave NOLA w/out hitting this famous dueling pianos bar. Impossible to get a seat late night, so go around 6pm. Killer requests: Sweet Child of Mine, Wonderwall, Smells like Teen Spirit.
Known for its hurricanes. Other cocktails aren't the best but great atmosphere and people watching. Drinks are cheaper if you order at the bar and take to your table.
MEN'S BATHROOM: Keep walking through the bar, through the court yard, past fire pit, and keeps along til the dueling piano room. It's the best kept secret and empty. Don't stand in line for 30min
What isn't there to like about Pat O'Brien's? Came here for a hurricane and some piano bar action and we were seated fairly quick maybe only a 15-20 minute wait total. Definitely worth coming to!
Sit outside in the courtyard if you can. The Hurricanes are huge and will definitely knock you down. Return your glass for $3 back at the bar, you're charged upfront for them.
Coming from a NY Irishman. One of the BEST Shepard's pies I have ever tasted. Hurricane, pecanduck strips, and muffalatta sandwich were amazing as well.
Sit on the patio and drink a hurricane. And for those who don't drink, sit on the patio and drink an Eye of the Hurricane. They're a delicious non-alcoholic alternative!
The hurricanes were fantastic! (And strong.) And the ladies on the piano and Alvin, the tray percussionist, were just delightful! I'll definitely be back to this bar during my next visit to the city!
It's essential that you stop here and get a Hurricane once as this is where it originated. Order it, taste it, and then throw the rest away because it is a sticky, sweet, nasty mess. Move on with life
Going to Pat O's Piano Bar was literally the most fun my group had while we were in New Orleans! The music was great and the atmosphere was so lively! A MUST DO ON ANY TRIP TO NOLA!
Great drinks, get the hurricane like everybody else. Love the outdoor area! Cozy in the evening when they light the fire in the fountain. Good for dates
Best way to start a trip to NOLA, have a hurricane! And if you order more than one and want to keep the glasses, you can trade some in to get a variety of glasses. I have about 7 different ones
Do what every does and grab a Hurricane from the originators ...but keep in mind there are plenty of fresher more original recipe versions available throughout the Quarter.
The Hurricane is overrated and they'll charge you for the glass if you don't mention that you don't want it... It's too touristy! On the +side, bars create a very good ambiance and the patio is top!
June 2005, we went out with friends walking on Bourbon street. We got the Hurricane Drinks from Pat O’Briens, I still have our glasses we got our drinks in.
Unfortunately, the red beans and rice tastes no better than unseasoned refried beans. The hurricanes are of course strong?Ÿ˜?, and the catfish and wings are flavorful.
If you like sweet drinks and you're looking to get drunk, the Hurricane is probably for you. I opted for a real cocktail, which wasn't bad. And the person who served us was attentive and nice.
Upon entering, the line to your right is for the piano bar. Feel free to step left for a regular bar or go past straight for open-air seating and food.
