New Orleans Dining

There’s something about a drink in your hand and warm air on your skin that makes everything feel a little easier. At The Garden District Hotel, dining flows with the day, light, unfussy, and best enjoyed at your own pace. Sip something botanical beneath the palms, share a bottle as the sun fades, or order a little something extra just because it’s that kind of night. From shaded corners to sunlit scenes, every space invites connection and conversation.

Garden Bar

Tucked just off the lobby, Garden Bar is where design meets downtime. With its botanical cocktails, curated wine list, and breezy happy hour energy, it’s the perfect place to gather, whether you're toasting something big or just easing into the evening. The bar itself is intimate, but it seamlessly transitions into the lounge, featuring soft seating and quiet corners perfect for catching up. Two Samsung Frame TVs make it easy to tune into a big game or a low-stakes moment. Food is available to order, and if you’d rather take things outdoors, the courtyard’s bistro tables offer a sun-dappled spot to sip al fresco.

Pool and Swim-Up Bar

Surrounded by palms and Southern air, our poolside dining experience is equal parts indulgent and laid-back. You can order lunch without ever leaving your lounger, or pull up to the shaded tables if you’re feeling a little more social. And yes, we have New Orleans’ only swim-up bar, which makes every cocktail feel a little cooler. Whether it’s a midday spritz or something heartier after a swim, everything’s designed to keep the day flowing, no shoes required.

Pool Hours: 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Daily
