Cooter Brown’s Tavern & Oyster Bar
509 S. Carrollton Ave., New Orleans, LA 70118
504.866.9104 | www.cooterbrowns.com
Located in the Riverbend neighborhood of uptown New Orleans is this Western-style tavern-meets-sports bar. With 400 brands of domestic and imported bottled beers, 45 different beers on tap, and a menu chockfull of po-boys, burgers, dogs, and amazing raw oysters, Cooter Brown’s can cook up just about any flavor combination you can think of. The comfortable, local joint rounds out its repertoire of offerings with 15 TVs (each one’s almost always tuned in to a different game) and clever caricatures of celebrities with beers that complement their personalities.
