Welcome to Handsome Willy’s Patio Bar, voted New Orleans’ “Best Happy Hour that’s Actually Happy” by Where Y’at and one of the “101 Best Things to Do” in the nation by Spin magazine. Handsome Willy’s proudly continues New Orleans’ 3rd Ward’s long tradition of getting down.
Located at 218 South Robertson Street, the former site of the historic Jackson’s Inn, a notorious neighborhood nightclub and brothel first opened in 1939, Handsome Willy’s brings the funk to the people. A favorite for those in the medical district, Handsome Willy’s close proximity to the Superdome and New Orleans Arena also makes it a hot spot for Saints and Hornets fans.
Featuring the freshest courtyard in the CBD, Handsome Willy’s is the place to unwind, in paradise, from another workday. Lean back and enjoy the vibe at the outdoor patio bar while sipping our famed Handsome Juice or a delicious margarita.
Handsome Willy’s happy hours are an all-day affair. From 2-6 p.m. every weekday, we offer discounted domestic and import beers, $2.50 well drinks, and $1.00 off all of our specialty menu drinks. Start the weekend off on your goodfoot with Funk & Crunk Fridays, the funkiest, grooviest, most singular soul party in the Crescent City.
If you’re looking for something happening a little later, Handsome Willy’s goes off after the sun goes down. With DJs spinning everything from hip-hop to house, soul to rocksteady, you’ll find something here to help you get your shine on.
When you get hungry, Willy is always cooking something. And as always, Friday’s FUNK N’CRUNK happy hour features FREE food from 5-9 p.m. Check our facebook page for each week’s featured treats, whipped up by Chef Pat.
