Part of the Gay New Orleans Guide — bars, events & things to do.
New Orleans, Louisiana
Cozy multi-level French Quarter bar known for the frozen Separator.
Good Friends sits a block off Bourbon at 740 Dauphine, the quieter side of the Quarter's gay strip and a deliberate counterpoint to the dance clubs around the corner. The downstairs room is built around a carved mahogany bar and a pool table, and it's where regulars order the Separator—the bar's frozen, creamy house specialty that people cross town for. Upstairs, the Queens Head Pub opens on weekend evenings with a wraparound balcony over Dauphine and Sunday piano show-tune singalongs that pull a loyal, clubby crowd. The whole place trades on being a neighborhood bar rather than a spectacle: strong pours, a friendly room, and the feel of a local's living room more than a tourist stop. It's the spot to start or end a night when you want conversation over a dance floor.
