The Old Point Bar

The Old Point Bar is a beloved neighborhood music venue on historic Algiers Point, just a short ferry ride across the Mississippi from the French Quarter. Serving cold beer and hot music since the 1990s, this laid-back corner bar hosts live blues, jazz, and R&B three to four nights a week. The intimate, no-frills setting draws a loyal local crowd and adventurous visitors who make the trip across the river for an authentic New Orleans music experience far from the tourist strip. With its weathered charm and welcoming vibe, the Old Point is a cornerstone of the Algiers Point music community.
