Choose between a mint julep or Pimm's Cup on the iconic southern front porch - watch the lightning bugs and streetcars go by - or the velveted Victorian Bar inside for a Cajun bloody mary or old-fashioned. Film site for "Pretty Baby". Nice spot to hop off the streetcar after exploring the Quarter, before a leisurely walk home to Maison Thombeau.
