Habitues of Napoleon House, one of the French Quarter's most atmospheric old bars, are certainly more dedicated to drinking than eating. You should be too, if you decide to visit this historical watering hole. But some years ago the owners… Read Full Editorial

It needs some help! by nolasaints via Citysearch on 7/1/2011

Maybe it was just the night we went in but we have gone in a lot and it has been good. But this night everything as going wrong. My red beans and rice were only ok and everyone elses food looked like it was from buffet line and not good.…

Atmosphere is High New Orleans by Tastie via Citysearch on 3/19/2010

Go for the atmosphere. The interior is one of the best in the Quarter for historical feel.

Must try! by Susan H via Insider Pages on 3/6/2010

Love to go to Napoleeon's. A must stop every time we visit the city. Stable staff, good food and a relaxed atmosphere. You will enjoy Napoleons. Don't forget to try a Pimm's Cup.

Where else can you get good food at cheap prices with an infitely classy and yet distinctively casual vibe by catotheelder via Citysearch on 11/12/2008

From the gorgeous courtyard to the wait staff of classy gentlemen in bow-ties to the consistent strains of classical music to the 18th century environs... Simply put, Napoleon house is a classic. Great as a bar or an afternoon lunch stop,…

Best Bloody Mary in town! by cagey_a via Citysearch on 5/27/2008

Didn't have a chance to eat there, but did enjoy sitting at the beautiful old bar on two occasions. Mario at the bar makes the best bloody mary EVER! Cheap beer and good Pimm's cups. Great atmosphere!

Best Value in NOLA by mary1raymond via Citysearch on 5/2/2008

We love Napoleon House. You can stop in for a helping of affordable jambalaya/muffaletta, and it's GOOD! Unless you're famished, you could split one muffaletta with someone, along with a cold Abita Springs beer, and feel content. One…

Not the Same by Shoshana B via Insider Pages on 4/14/2008

The Napolean House is filled with history and lore but it never really came back to its full menu after Hurricane Katrina. The bar is still there, featuring the famous Pimm's Cup, specialty beers, and fine wines. The courtyard is as…

Good food and location by Kari(K-2) P via Insider Pages on 10/30/2007

This restaurant, located in the French Quarter, is a great place for locals and tourists alike. It has historical basis for the name which adds some of the character. The front dining area is open on all sides and allows for good views of…

Still they survive! by flapperdiner via Citysearch on 8/4/2006

Even after the hurricane, Napolean House survives! Love the Pimm's cups, and their bread pudding is a;ways a treat!

Relieved it's still there!!! by Carlosbob via Citysearch on 7/5/2006

Napoleon House is one of my favorite haunts in the French Quarter. I was hugely relieved when I found it intact and, mostly, unchanged in my first visit since Katrina. The atmosphere is wonderful, the historical surroundings, dim…

An old favorite by Olivera J. via Judy's Book on 6/12/2006

If you find yourself in the French Quarter and are in a need of a real drink, but do not want to be in the Bourbon Street crowds, come to Napoleon's House. A building with a fascinating history and TWO ties to Napoleon, not just one, it…

Low-key meeting spot rich in character and romance, famous for a near miss with a spot in history. by Contributor via Citysearch on 4/4/2006

In Short
Napoleon House was supposedly built by French loyalists in the hopes that it would be used by Napoleon Bonaparte, who was exiled on Elba at the time. With classical music providing a genteel background, the…

Our Favorite Place in the Big Easy by mwparks via Citysearch on 8/9/2005

My wife and I visit NO as often as possible. And Napoleon House is always a must visit experience. The bar, inside dining, and court yard are all wonderful experiences. One one of our visits it was my wife's birthday, and the dining room…

Great bar and Restaurant by jreeves997 via Citysearch on 7/7/2005

This is by far the best restaurant I have ever been to. The food is excellent and reasonably priced and the service is very professional. The bar makes you feel like you are in a movie, too. However, the ambience takes the cake, ESPECIALLY…

PIMMS cups all around!! by jeverett_81 via Citysearch on 6/15/2005

Picture it! You're in the middle of the french quater, its a toasty 95 degrees, the air's as thick as the mud the Mississippi flows over, and it seems as tho there isn't a breeze in the entire state of luzianna! Suddenly you see the green…

The Muffulata was awesome! by snoopy1977 via Citysearch on 5/26/2005

I really enjoyed my dining experience at The Napolean House. We had lunch there on the last day of our trip and it was a great send off. Although we had to wait 40 minutes for a table, it was well worth it. We were seated in the patio…

not so great by clouie via Citysearch on 7/19/2004

Our waiter was very cute and very good- but I saw other waiters being extremely rude to other customers. I'm guessing they don't get paid very much? The food isn't very good- my food wasn't very tasty or hot nor was my friends' food. I…

just okay by absinthe01 via Citysearch on 6/9/2004

I think I picked this place because it had a courtyard which pumped up its romantic rating. I would say that it could have been a lot nicer, it's not that romantic. The waitstaff didn't look like they wanted to be there. That said it all.…

Service could be better by uvachief via Citysearch on 5/19/2004

I was a little disappointed. This was my third trip to New Orleans. I had never tried Napoleon's for some reason. We decided to stop by for some wine and appetizers. There was not a lot of choose from food wise. Mainly poboys and…

Poor Service by madtex1967 via Citysearch on 2/20/2004

Being a resident of the Quarter, its hard to believe that a restaurant so highly recognized would have such bad service. I went with a friend, and had to seat ourselves because the hostess couldn't be bothered. It took us 15 minutes to…
