Bar Tonique

Bar Tonique on the edge of the French Quarter bar isn't the typical PBR slinging dive - not that there's anything wrong with that flavor of bar. But this is the place for a frothy Ramos gin fizz – a favorite libation of notorious past governor Huey P. Long – made with TLC by a friendly enough bartender. All drinks are hand crafted cocktails using fresh ingredients and choice rare liquors. There's a rotating daily special, offering drinks like a Pimm's Cup, Mai Tai or Bloody Mary for just $5. The bar is directly across from Armstrong Park, a lovely wander before or after you imbibe.
