Where to Watch the Big Game
New Orleans is a football town and we can’t wait to host the big game this year. Along with the big party in the Superdome, fans will gather in local bars and restaurants all over town. Here are a few suggestions of where to be at kick-off time. Come early to get the best seats.
It’s always “half time” at Acme Oyster House. Grab half a shrimp, oyster or “10-Napkin Roast Beef Po-boy” and pull up a seat close to one of the TVs. No matter who’s leading, you’ll have a great time.
Former Saints’ quarterback Bobby Hebert is a legend in this town and his Metairie restaurant, filled with fascinating memorabilia, is the perfect place to watch the game. You’ll love the food, too. We can vouch for the Cam Cam Bam Bam Buffalo Wings, the Who Dat! Crab Cakes, and Buddy D’s Red Beans and Rice.
Come watch the game and maybe toss around the ball at Loft18 on Metairie Road. They have screens galore and great football watching food (we love their Korean wings!)
Whether you're in the Quarter or at the Lakefront, it's game on at Felix's! Down a freshly shucked oyster every time your team scores.
Tupelo Chicken Tenders. Hard Rock Nachos. Joe Perry’s “Rock Your World” Quesadilla. If you were thinking about just picking up a bag of chips and dip at the convenience store, we hope this changes your mind. Come on down to the Quarter and join the party at Hard Rock Café.
When it's football season, bands aren't the only things playing at Maison Bourbon. Come pull up a seat, order our signature VOODOO Purple Daiquiri, and watch football New Orleans style!
With a balcony overlooking Bourbon Street, this beautifully restored bar between Toulouse and Decatur streets is a perfect place for a private gameday party upstairs. Or, if it's just you and a few friends, enjoy the game on their big screen TV while sipping drink specials. (You can get the VOODOO Purple Daiquiri here, too.)
Original French Market Restaurant & Bar
These guys know how to throw a party! The balcony is awesome and the seafood TDF. Come join the fun!
Although not a place to necessarily watch the game, Commander's Palace should be on your t0-do list if you're in town. They'll be offering a White Tablecloth Tailgate Tasting Menu and they'll also be hosting a "Super Brunch" during the weekend.
