Black Penny
Black Penny at 700 N Rampart St across from historic Louis Armstrong Park is a quintessential dive bar that celebrates craft beer culture and artistic expression in an authentic early 19th-century building. The exposed wooden beams and stripped brick walls reveal the bones of this historic structure, creating a cozy, old-fashioned atmosphere that feels lived-in and welcoming. Known as a local watering hole for service industry professionals, Black Penny showcases around 100 local and imported craft beer options alongside an innovative cocktail menu featuring NA beers and CBD seltzers for non-drinkers. The bar features dog-friendly seating, ample room to settle in, and engaging entertainment like bingo nights that build community. This is where New Orleans' authentic neighborhood spirit lives, far from tourist trappings.
