and patio that just shouts classic New Orleans architecture. The similarities don’t stop with the exterior design, but the open beam ceiling, retro lighting fixtures, and walls covered with old photographs of Bay St. Louis and the Gulf Coast, all join hands to create a relaxed, but still classy atmosphere.
In fact, you won’t find a hurricane bar anywhere in NOLA that rivals what North Beach has, and that includes the famous drink, the Hurricane. Here it’s offered in magnitudes from Category
1 to Category 5. Go there at your own peril! The Sazerac cocktail, first made in France in 1850, is one of the most popular drinks at North Beach. Give one a try!
There are four options for seating, each with its own unique atmosphere. The main dining area, an upstairs dining room that might be a bit more sedate,
a balcony with a beautiful view of Old Town and the Bay, and the patio that’s just perfect for the fall weather that’s upon us.
