Description
High Grace NOLA is an "upscale dive bar" tucked just off bustling Bourbon Street at 733 St. Peter Street in New Orleans’ iconic French Quarter. It operates non-stop—open 24 hours a day, every day of the year—making it one of the few true round-the-clock bar options in the city. This flexible schedule caters to a wide variety of patrons, from late-night revellers to early-morning seekers of a good drink.
The vibe strikes a lively yet casual tone—think neon-lit counters, drink towers, free popcorn, a jukebox, large TVs, and even karaoke on occasion. The bar’s specialty cocktails—especially fan favourites like the “Lavender Lemonade” (available frozen or on the rocks) and the tequila-infused “Trial by Fire”—are particularly Instagram-worthy. Drinkers return for the atmosphere, creative menu, and unpretentious charm. Reviewers frequently rave about the friendly, welcoming service; as one shared: “High Grace makes me feel like part of the family.”
In addition to drinks, High Grace offers tasty bites—like the popular Sergio’s burritos—that pair perfectly with beverages. The bartenders are quick, personable, and often remembered by name. Plus, its proximity to Bourbon Street makes it an easy and welcoming stop during a night out in the Quarter. Though not focused on music, the bar’s lively backdrop—popcorn, neon, jukebox, occasional karaoke—creates a vibrant, informal environment that stays buzzing at all hours. It’s perfect for those looking for an authentically eccentric slice of New Orleans nightlife.
