About this business

During the day, Lucy's Retired Surfer's Restaurant & Bar serves as the perfect lunch break getaway for the young professional crowd working in the Warehouse District. At night, it is the after-work drinking hole for the same crowd. It is a great change of pace from the bars in the Quarter. The interior of this place resembles an old Tiki bar, and the staff wears Aloha shirts and occasionally straw hats. A California influence is apparent in the grilled shrimp and fish specialties. You will also enjoy a large selection of Sou... read more

Great Place for Newbies!! – It was very crowded the day we went due to the Saints vs. Texans game, but the atmosphere was great! It was my first time going to NOLA and this place was about 2 blocks from my hotel. I definitely recommend it. The spirit of New Orleans is alive in this bar! Not too over-priced and we did not try the food there. We had a great time meeting the locals, they are so friendly!

Great food but buyer beware! – The food was very good but my husband and I got the worst case of food poisoning we have ever had. Spent two days of Jazz Fest in our hotel room bathroom (you don't want to know the details) - which completely ruined our anniversary weekend. The room service server at the hotel where we were staying said that over the past few years, several guests had the same awful experience. Since we had only one item that was uncooked, (salad with ranch dressing) we assumed that was what did us in. We were... read more

Hawaii meets Baja Mexico & California Surf – The menu is interesting, great relaxed atmosphere and the food is pretty good. The surfboards, wall posters, music and lighting are relaxed and laid back style. Waitresses are friendly and pretty quick about service. I ate there for dinner on a Wednesday night, so the place was only half full. I ordered the Juicy Lucy with grilled pineapple and black forest ham added, with blue cheese crumbles. It's a big 1/2 lb hamburger.... and juicy is right. The flavor was good, not the best b... read more

Best bar ambiance for brunch – Great place to go before a Saints game. The staff is great, really friendly and fast. All the food is good and a great valua, and the Sunday brunch has $2 mimosas. Would be hard to eat with a big group, and maybe not the best place for kids, but they have a lot fo seating, big bar, lots of tvs, and the decor is really fun.

white trash servers – If you're not totally repulsed by the white trash waitress's / bar tenders being pawed all over by the black bar backs then you won't mind this place. Cheap drinks, cheap food.

Great place – Lucy's is great for having drinks with friends early in the evening and on Friday nights its a more trendy crowd. Good drinks and the food is pretty good. Only problem is the cleanliness of the restrooms and they are often clogged.

one of my favorites – Lucys is a great bar that you wont find many tourists at. Locals hang out there for the chill atmosphere and fun drinks. Def check it out if you are in town. The one in the warehouse district is the best!

A happening hangout for downtown movers and shakers looking to placate their inner surfers. – In Short When the original Lucy's opened on New York's Upper West Side in the late '80s, it was the place to go. Its California-surfer decor--seemingly incongruous to its big-city surroundings--caught on quick with the upscale crowd, and it instantly became a success. A relatively more sedate version of the New York bar, Lucy's is a down-to-earth hamburger joint and happy hour hangout that caters to the convention center crowd and C... read more
