Just got back from New Orleans and tried out all the bars but the Famous Door was by far the best for entertainment! The band is great, we went and saw them everynight we were there! The only thing I can say negative about the bar is that the drinks were a little pricey incomparison to the others but like every other bar, you can bring your own in so it wasn't that big of a deal.

There was an 80's cover band playing when we were there and it was a great time! The staff is friendly and the atmosphere is rowdy. A great place to begin or end your evening!!
This was by far THE BEST bar we went to in the Quarters! Rockbox was absolutely amazing!! The girls looked good and were great about bringing drinks! We were only in town for a long weekend and were at the Famous Door every night. We are looking forward to going back so we can see Rockbox again!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS BAR AND BAND!!!!!

Love hearing Rock Box!!!

Love the music and atmosphere at The Famous Door! The music and crowd are greatly varied. I'm from Baton Rouge, LA and go to New Orleans as often as I can for the music!
The Famous Door is the best bar on Bourbon Street! Their house band, Rockbox is the best! We go to the French Quarter every few weeks and we spend the majority of the night here!
The band Rockbox is awesome. They play all things rock from 8 to 4am nonstop. They even take requests. The lead singer and lead guitar(Brian) are pure energy.

My husband and I went to NOLA for a second honeymoon. After walking along Bourbon Street for an hour or so we came upon the FAMOUS DOOR. We went in and basically never left. We went home late at night and came back early the next day. The band was great. The guitar player (Brian) was awesome. We are already planning out next trip back just to see them and drink 2 for 1's of course. Thanks for a terrific time Famous Door.
