Apple Barrel Bar, New Orleans, Louisiana Restaurant Details

Food:

Tiny club with friendly, efficient staff. Big clubs are good, but this was better music. Standing room only (just 6 seats, but 60 people at a time. Gatekeeper at front is old-style jazz & blues guy. This place just feels right for the blues. Smokey Greenwell Band was a beautiful work of art...everyone one, and all together.

Food:

Cash only. Good bar, good music, good times. Morgan (bartender) is great!

Food:

Great bar, great bartender, great band.

Food:

Small dive bar with excellent people. Under Adolfo's so you often have people waiting to go upstairs lounging at the tables.

cash only. Don't forget to tip the band and the bartender.

Google Maps shows this place on the wrong block. It is across the street from d.b.a instead of the Praline Connection. It is also under Adolfo's, but Adolfo's sign is as hidden as the Barrel's sign.

Edit: reducing my review from 5 stars to 2 stars after the previous proprietors were kicked out. The atmosphere is certainly changed and the drink prices have all gone up. some of the regulars are still there but many have left because the talent on stage is different now.

Food:

This place rocks!!! Super friendly, great bartenders, top-notch drinks (you gotta try the bloody mary!), and fantastic live music. The house band is amazing!
