Ugh, more friend-visiting-questions.

I got some friends? More like acquaintances, who want to party like ballers. I have no fricken’ clue where one might want to go for such things. What are some higher end club/whatever things? They want to order bottle service and crap. I’m totally lost. Plz help.

Tell them go to Vegas.

I was legit thinking "tell them to go to Vegas" as I clicked on the thread. Good on you for beating me to it.

If they want high-end stuff, y'all can come sit in my backyard and I'll charge you $2,000?

I’m sure as hell not coming, but I’ll pass it on. What do you call this mysterious, exclusive speakeasy?

"Some guy's backyard"

Sounds “authentic.” I hear that’s what people want now.

Even though I know you are joking, my wife visited probably 20 years ago to open a Sketcher's shoe store. and she ended up being invited to some guy's backyard. I think it was their cab driver. Her and her boss went. Had some good food apparently.

The offer still stands at $2k for 1 hours worth of sitting in my backyard. Drinks are not included. BYOfood. Bring enough food to share with me.

Maybe explain to them that "bottle service and crap" is not part of New Orleans' culture. Send them to the Blacksmith Shop, Ms. Mae's, Snake and Jake's, Maple Leaf, etc.

Yeah, this. I’m about to tell them to get bent, tbh.

Right? That's like saying "I'm looking for a laid back return to nature. How much are plane tickets to New York?"

Planning on a trip this summer sometime and was wondering, is Snake and Jake’s worth it via cab/Uber from the FQ? Won’t have a car and pretty much everything we plan on doing is Quarter centric. Looking forward to just walking everywhere and not worrying about bus schedules and apps and flagging down cabs. Also, is NOLA Brewery worth the extra effort?

I always Uber/cab everywhere. Snake and Jake's depends...do you like real dive bars? Do you like canned domestic beers? It's a unique place.

Sorry, I don't know anything about NOLA Brewery.

Coattail-Rider•

I like them all. I think I might Uber on over because I keep hearing about J&Ss. Divey and shit beers are my thing.

The republic does that. Probably the metropolitan if it’s still open.

Probably one of the strip clubs on Bourbon?

I love how everyone here is like "pay me and I'll make it happen". I love all y'all.

Maybe The casino? There was a club before the rona, not sure if it went by the wayside along with the buffet.

Me and my partner (we live locally) won a two night stay at the casino that we used the first weekend of March 2020. ! There was a dance floor thing in the middle of the casino... It was a weekend and we were the only people there. I don't think the pandemic likely helped that.

Give me enough money and I can make anything happen
