        Tip:

              One of my all time favorite places to go in NO. Add the cemetery tour to your list. I never did the tour but I walked forever through that place.

                You can make all the plans you wan't but it will end up like pretty much the 20 bachelor parties i've been to in NOLA. You start off early listening to a band on Bourbon street in a bar talking about what to do, a few hours later the 3 for 1 beer specials start and so do the 2 for 1 shots. 4 hours later you walk to the next bar and if you are lucky you make it the 3rd bar by midnight and get a lucky dog or slice of pizza while dragging yourself back to your room. It's what happens every single time even though we say it wont.

                  Bacon Bloody Mary's and shrimp and grits for breakfast at Jimmy J's!

                  Jimmy J’s Café opened its doors in 2011 and has since become a destination restaurant in New Orleans with customers who are tourists and locals alike. We offer one of a kind breakfasts, signature cocktails for date night and delicious desserts.
