Cutter's

Cutter's is a sweet quirky neighborhood hole-in-the-wall with a mix of gay, straight, and everyone in between welcoming clientele. Tuesday is usually trivia night, organized by sometime bartender Marc Paradis, better known for his band Johnny Sketch & The Dirty Notes. Bartender "Mama" Craig knows everybody by name and is known for his sass and strong drinks. Start here, or a few doors up at Big Daddy's, to find a cast of oddball regulars. Both bars, on the dividing line between the Marigny and the Bywater, are places friends gay, straight or whatever, meet to relax and get out of the tourist fray.
