Cooter Brown's Tavern & Oyster Bar — New Orleans

Cooter Brown’s is in Black Pearl on South Carrollton Avenue, and the venue dates its story to 1977. It has the feel of a sizeable neighbourhood tavern: televisions for sports, an oyster-bar area, a memorabilia wall called the Beersoleum and several kinds of seating around the beer list. Drinks are a defining feature: the official site advertises 84 draft beers and a rotating selection of bottles and cans. Posted hours start at 11 a.m. daily, and the venue admits guests aged 21 and older only.

The kitchen moves between seafood and pub fare. The main page mentions raw oysters, po’boys, burgers and other dishes; the menu can change with availability, so check before visiting with a specific request. Google comments surfaced by review directories often mention the beer range, oysters and informal atmosphere; some also note that the room can become loud and crowded when major games overlap. This is not an immersive viewing room like Manning’s: its appeal is the combination of the scoreboard with beer, seafood and a local atmosphere that extends beyond the screen.

The address is on the Carrollton corridor, not in the French Quarter, and the St. Charles streetcar runs along that avenue; use the RTA planner to check stops, service changes and the last trip. The official website links Facebook and Instagram and posts location, hours and event information. The kitchen is listed until 1 a.m., but check holidays and seasonal changes. For NFL or college football, arriving early can make it easier to find a seat; on a non-game night, the beer and oyster menus are easier to enjoy without stadium-level noise.
