If you're like most Mardi Gras revelers, you're going to see more than your fair share of bars while you're in town. If you're looking for a great hotel or restaurant that also has a nice bar where you can meet up with friends before or after parades (or in the morning when you need a little "hair of the dog that bit you"), here are a few of our favorites.

Ice House Bar at Hotel Provincial

This bar, adjacent to the lobby of the Hotel Provincial, has an impressive selection of liquor, beer and wine, and can make any New Orleans cocktail you can think of. (We hear they make one of the best Bloody Marys anywhere.)

Iberville Cuisine in the French Quarter

The Carnival King Martini at Iberville Cuisine captures the spirit and indulgence of Mardi Gras. It features King Cake Vodka, smooth rum and Bailey's. Each glass is garnished with a slice of King Cake.

Court of Two Sisters

The Court of Two Sisters is offering a Moon Pie Cocktail in honor of everybody’s favorite throw on the parade route.

Grand Isle Restaurant

The Mardi Gras Mambo is back for another Carnival Season. It’s the perfect celebration for Muses’ Hersday or any day.

Hard Rock Cafe

Enjoy food and drink fit for a Carnival King or Queen at Hard Rock Cafe. You keep the guitar glass.
