Simple but quality bar food. We had oysters perfectly fried, crisp outside and not greasy while soft and creamy inside. Proper drinks and beers to suit all tastes. An outside garden in back is lovely but smoking is allowed. Our well behaved dog was welcome in the bar which is snug and cozy and staffed by cheerful people who appear to enjoy their jobs. Television is present but not obtrusive. A delightful alternative to the drinks of Bourbon Street

Mmmm everything is awesome! Try the crawfish boil too!

My favorite local bar in the French Quarter! Dog friendly, incredible food and staff! Best place to watch sports, with over 16+ TV’s and a lush courtyard. The food is local favorites and especially the oysters are delicious whether you like them chargrilled or raw. Prices are great too! Can’t wait to come back!

Great dive bar good cocktails beer and bar foodie menu, watched Super Bowl 3 years in a row always stop as we cruise the Quarter

So we went 3 days in a row this past weekend. True story. We stopped in Saturday afternoon on the way back from a socially distanced walk in the QTR, and noticed they had crawfish mac, which is one of my favorites. We decided to grab lunch, I got the crawfish mac & it DID NOT disappoint - in fact, it was great! Also had the stuffed jalapenos and they were amazing as well. Service was also excellent!Went back Sunday night to grab dinner and watch the Saints game...food & service was great again.Monday night we knew we wanted something good, we had two great dinners at MRB and we knew they had oysters....so we went back again. Actually had the same server from Saturday, very friendly, and had some amazing chargrilled oysters.We were very happy with the experience and cant wait to get back!

Loved it! We got crab cakes and the shrimp ceviche. Best in Nola, seriously! Please support this great bar

We loved this place!! Ate at Woodys last night before our ghost tour best decision of the trip. The girl who took our order was SO sweet I wish I could remember her name but she had Darkish hair and mid 20s took great care of us this will definitely be a MUST stop every time we come!!Price and section of seafood is Great

The most overrated place in the city. The food is crazy expensive. They give you 6 shrimps with barbecue sauce for 15 dollars. The shrimps are not good even. The food is bad.Edit: Thanks for letting us know. I will definitely try again.

The beer was cold on a hot New Orleans night. The selection of beer was pretty sweet, too. The bar staff was friendly and knowledgeable. I cant remember the young ladys name, but she got me to try something a little different from my normal go-to. The atmosphere and music were on point. the courtyard was sweet!

AMAZING!!! amazing food, service, drink offers...so happy we stumbled across this place. The outdoor seating, oysters and crawfish mac and cheese are absolute musts! So sad we are only visiting otherwise this would be a great spot for weekends!

The owner was fantastic and absolutely love her doggy

Had such a fun time here! The bartenders are all great! Very friendly place!

Best place for oysters. Very dog friendly. Love the vibe and reasonable prices. Also, I found a pearl in my oyster here!

Bartenders were very nice and helpful. Went out back to order food. You place an order and they send a text to your phone then its ready and you come back to the window and pick it up. The women taking the order was extremely rude to the person in front of me. I went up to order and she basically said Im not going to call you when your food is ready if you dont tip me. Got a full refund and walked out! Where Im from you tip for GOOD service....not just for doing your job.

I LOVED this place and already miss it. The oysters and gator ball things are amazing!! Never thought Id ever say that about gator lol let alone ever try it. Friendly and attentive staff! Definitely will be going back while in town for Jazz Fest.

This is where cool tourists go. ~overheard in the secret patio from a regular. It is true - there may not be crazy tourists, live music, or beads, but this place is where you enjoy the culture with the locals. Comfortable lounge, great owners, and a secret lounge in the back (way back) with basketball connect four and a projector screening movies and sometimes nintendo 64! I have been to NOLA many times with various budgets, and this is for everyone.

First time visiting this place because they had what has to be the first crawfish of the season. I’m very impressed! The crawfish was good, the drinks were strong, and they had some yummy seasonal specials. My friend has the grill cheese with tomato sauce and said it was good. We’ll be back!

Burger was a little spicy but still a super fun place, excellent prices, super friendly staff and a fun, welcoming atmosphere.

Great, fun vibe where all kinds of people can enjoy. Felt safe and free to relax! Only complaint is the tour groups that kept coming through, but other than the yelling for the groups to continue, I loved to see the tourists! Food was surprisingly good too!

Awesome people here. Food was really good. Had the Mr Burger and it was awesome. Good place to come at lunch have a few beers and grab some grub before going back out in the French quarter.

Absolutely love this place. Ive visited New Orleans twice in the last 3 years from Chicago and this is the spot where my wife and I spent the most of our drinking and hanging out time. The staff is welcoming and my wife and her family loved the fresh oysters provided by Woodies in the back. We treat this place like its our own private spot. Great times! Cant wait to get back.

They hosted the pre-wedding celebration. Very friendly atmosphere!

The new owners of MRB are really cool people. The courtyard is great and has a misting fan which is awesome for the Heat and sometimes they show movies or cartoons in their secondary back Courtyard. dont expect the fastest service youve ever had but the trade-off is a really relaxed and friendly atmosphere so its totally worth it. Also, they have a ton of board games including a superhero Rockem sockem and a pool table as well as a ping pong table. Oh, and did I mention they are dog friendly?

During our 5 day stay in NOLA we came here twice it was a super chill area and the food was pretty good as well. We really liked how there was three different sections as well.

The gator balls and boudin balls were great. Awesome patio in the back!

I came here because it was a cool looking place with lots of TVs that would be chill enough to watch my Purdue Boilermakers play an NCAA tournament game in the late afternoon in peace. The venue did not disappoint; the game most definitely did. Thankfully, Abita strawberry lager and various liquors took the sting out of probably the most soul-crushing tournament loss I can remember. Some random hippie on Frenchman Street later typed me a special poem to sum up the evening: f@#% virginia!

One of the most unique places to drink in the French quarter. Delicious and affordable food. Staff was incredibly friendly

My favorite place in The Quarter!!!!The food! The drinks!! Omg! It’s amazing. Try a dark and stormy, the peanut butter whiskey, raw oysters, gater balls and giant uno!

Everything about this place is spectacular. The bar has a great beer selection. The seating is nice. Bar is clean. Outside courtyard is beautiful. The kitchen in the courtyard has food that is absolutely amazing. We had crawfish mac and cheese, lemon pepper wings and char grilled oysters. The mac and cheese was epic. The wings were perfect. Crispy on the outside, juicy meaty wings. If you want the best char grilled oysters ever, look no further. My only regret is I ordered half a dozen instead of 2 dozen. They were PERFECT.

Cold drinks. Hot fire pit in the back. Great bartenders! The food is excellent as well. The new owners have really made this a great social gathering place. A must visit

Exactly like the TV bar ‘CHEERS’ -but New Orleans style ️!

My husband and I vacationed with our toddler. Many places do not allow anyone under 18 years of age. Because of this we would call ahead to make sure our kid would be allowed to come before making the journey over. The employee asked how old he was and we told him 19 months. He said that would be fine. When we go there one of the employees said we could not have a kid there as they previously got in trouble with the state troopers. When we told her we called (showing her) she replied that someone from the kitchen must of said that finishing with a sorry, cant allow it. It is beyond frustrating when you have your business together and the one who should doesnt. We ended up going to the French Market Restaurant a few businesses down. They were SO nice and accommodating and consistent with their answers.

Sat for an hour and a half waiting for 1/2 dozen oysters and finally told them just send us some chips and queso instead. There were only half a dozen people in the restaurant and when one of the other customers was complaining about not getting chargrilled oysters, the owner walked over and told the cook to reheat two dozen chargrilled that had been sitting on the bar for over an hour. The customer called them out and canceled their order. The manager and owner were clearly annoyed with the chargrilled cook but never jumped in to help.

Dog friendly, Chicago sports bar with an awesome staff and local beer.

This place other than any other bar in nola wasnt filthy or a dive...staff was great and drinks were awesome.. bathrooms were clean..

Had a great time here! Even watched Game of Thrones Outside on the patio. Great selection of beers as well. Great spot.

Very disappointing! We came to this place looking for a good place to eat at and ended up super disappointed at everything. The food and the service were bad, and the food was way overpriced for what it really is. Oysters were good but you can’t mess that up.

Nice bar and patio with good food and Great service.

Love this place food is great. Best place for chargrilled oysters. Courtyard is cool as hell. Friendly staff. Now one of my hangouts I will always visit. Thanks guys

Drinks were great, food was great, kitchen just needs more organization. For the size, I feel it should be simple and develop a quick process. Other than the over 30min wait for some of our parties food at times.

Wonderful food and oysters. Awesome people.

My favorite bar in New Orleans by far! A bit off the beaten path from the French quarter but definitely worth the walk. Not only did this bar have some of the best seafood we had our whole time but it was also the most fairly priced. There beer list was just as impressive as there food, one of the largest stocks of craft beer of any of the bars.

Great food. Good service. The pool table is nice too.

Great local bar with live music off Bourbon Street.

Best local joint in NOLAs French quarter. Reasonable drinks too. Plenty of indoor big screens and its never over crowded (unless its a saints game). Plus, it boasts TWO courtyards, one with a GIANT movie screen the size of a house. The weekly variety show we host there is easily the best in NOLA.

What can I say about my favorite bar in the French Quarter? Its got the atmosphere, the bartenders are some of the best in the quarter, and--can you believe it--its clean!!! The prices are exceptionally reasonable, the beer list is extensive, and it has--count em--TWO Courtyards!!! A real old fashioned quarter bar of the first water.

Solid place outside of the main madness of the Quarter. Plenty of TVs to watch sports, a nice selection of board games, friendly service and a decent selection of beers (although most are in cans). The food looked pretty good so well have to give it a try next time. Im definitely keeping this place in my pocket for the next time Im in the area.

Love this place and they have Justin Wilson seasonings. Game changer!

Great Bar, Great Food. Try the seafood hamburger, Ive never tasted one like it. Deep fried bread. All the food was delicious.

We loved the restaurant. The management was wonderful and not hard on the eyes but way to young for this customer. Had a great time and the bloody Marys great.

Terrible customer service got completely ignored the two times we tried going. Would not recommend!

You should really get the Crawfish Mac n cheese. Soooo very good

The drinks are good. Services is wonderful they have a comedy club which is pretty funny

Great local dive with plenty of sports and good bar food.

Great drinks and fun atmosphere! Watched college football there for a while and it was a great place for that. Everyone was friendly and smiling. Got a chicken quesadilla and was unimpressed with it. Served ranch instead of sour cream with it and the chicken was eh. Only reason for not giving 5 stars.

Great bar! Staff is excellent.

Terrible service and smelly bar. I never got served at the bar and finally just left. Its probably for the best since it wasnt clean. I only went there because it was part of a walking tour.

This was a rest stop as part of a walking tour. The restrooms were pretty clean. Our tour guide mentioned they had fast to-go foods just for the tour groups, so I opted to try the jambalaya. It was bland, had almost zero meat, what little meat was there was unrecognizable, and there was a funky aftertaste. Immediately tossed into the trash bin outside.

Woody is the best! Great spot for indoor/outdoor fun. Music hospitality and ofc great food. Oysters were da bomb

Essential deep Quarter watering hole. Great bartenders, good food.

Have to have the Category 6 Hurricane! Better than OBriens hurricane!!! Great hang out bar and a must to enjoy the food and comfortable atmosphere.

Get the crawfish Mac and cheese. One of the best meals I’ve ever had

Great patio space very good brews!

Amazing friendly service. Everyone here was super nice and helpful . Great drinks and atmosphere. A must stop in.

With a party of 6 had to walk to the back to order food the lady was beyond rude and maybe had a bad day but told us if we didnt tip her that maybe we will get our food or maybe we wont at that point i as for our money back and she told us to get away from the window and i told her not until she refunded my money, the bar part of the place had outstanding service but that lady in the back was out of control swearing , its bad when a customer was walking pass us and said good good luck with that lady

Loved all the updates and renovations made.

Shouldnt sell food since its pretty bad

Great dive bar... didnt try the food... will do next time though..

Lots of beers on tap! It get crowded and loud fast!

Definitely seemed like a bar for the locals but those are some of my favorites. Service was a tad slow but bartenders were super friendly and it was shift change so I had no complaints. Great spot for some drinks, playing pool and grabbing some grub from the kitchen in the courtyard in the back.

If you are in the French Quarter please bypass the tourist trap and head to MRB!! Everything you think you need is here. My first time going was for a crawfish boil and Woodie throws down. I decided from there I would stalk their Instagram only to see they have an amazing selection of food dishes. So last night I went back and the food exceeded my expectations. I had the crab and shrimp egg rolls, butterflied shrimp, and crawfish mac and cheese. Everything was so delicious and the service was phenomenal! Brad is the sweetest and made sure we had a great experience. When I find Ms. Patty, Im going to give her huge hug because I know she had me in mind when she made that Mac and Cheese. To top it off, we were able to see a free Burlesque and Comedy Show in the courtyard. Now folks, this is all at a dive bar so of course there are beverages to complete this entire experience. Aside from a beer, I also tried their Watermelon and Cucumber Cocktail which is necessary in this NOLA heat. I wrote all of this to say.. go to Woodies MRB, you wont be disappointed.IG: @woodies_at_mrb@barcrawlnola

Just ate here and had the wings and nachos. They were great, and they have the best oyster prices! Definitely recommend to anyone

The owners are really awesome and friendly. We really enjoyed our time here and felt important. ️ Maybe next time we will try the food. Looks bomb!

Great experience!! Great drinks!!! They have an awesome courtyard that has N64 night with goldeneye and Mario kart!!!

Food was much better than I expected. Decor could use some work

Good food, great atmosphere, excellent servers. Nice little hole in the wall everyone needs to try.

Cool set up and awsome owners

Oh the food was so yummy, glad we stopped in while walking by, a must.

Love this bar, food is good as well.

Very well-managed with nice and efficient employees

Mmmmm@ least twice a week I eat & drink here.1 of my fav local places.

The chicken strips are among the best in the city

This is simply the best bar in the French Quarter. Local fare, generous staff, GREAT prices and plenty of entertainment. Giant Movie screen at night, ping pong, pool tables, darts, cornhole boards, multiple giant Jenga sets, and a host of classic board games on the shelves. I relive the best parts of childhood every time I come here which is as often as possible. Ample TVs provide sports and popular shows for fans of all varieties. Come early to watch the live seafood come in every morning then watch them cook it in one of their two laid back patios, one of which is HAUNTED! A must visit!

Staff and owner are all amazing and welcoming. The food was delicious. Really cool little spot with two back patio sections.

One of my favorite bar keeps Alley KaT

Friendly people, accomadated us by getting the Bengals and Patriots games on for us...food was very good as well.

Our favorite go to bar to meet great people enjoy a good cocktail great crawfish mac & cheese and friendly bartenders

Neat atmosphere. Weird bathrooms.

First time visiting back in February (2018). Great shrimp and grits! Byron is a cool cat, too. All around easygoing atmosphere during the early afternoon hours.

Small bar with tables but no wait service. you gotta go to bar and order every time you want another drink. It took a few minutes to figure it out, or we might still be waiting.

The most delicious

This place is amazing!! First time I ever ate oysters...the food was GREAT and the service was top notch. Best weve had in Town

This place made our night last night! Staff was beyond awesome and friendly, food was better, and we left stuffed, happy, and drunk without breaking our bank account. Definitely putting it on the list again when we come back to New Orleans!

Good place, good beer nice indoor patio.

Woodys is a great place to meet up with friends!

Great specials, nice people.

The raw oysters were large, fresh, and fantastic. But we were amazed by the char-grilled oysters. Seasoned to perfection. The place is a dive but the oysters were far better than Acme. The prices were inexpensive too. Great bang for the buck.

Great little five bar with a restaurant tucked into the back courtyard. Great service and atmosphere.

Great, reasonably-priced food. Cash-only bar with a huge selection of liquors and beer. We loved how laid back and quiet it was for a weekend lunch! Tables and chairs, pool table, secluded patio, and 10 TVs!

We came to New Orleans with our dog for the Christmas holiday and found this gem because it was dog-friendly and open on Christmas Eve. We loved it! The owner and his bar dog were super welcoming to our furry companion, the food was great, and the people were genuine. We highly recommend this bar!
