Cooter Brown's has been running in the Black Pearl since 1977, built on beer, raw oysters, and whatever's on the TVs. The kitchen serves po-boys, burgers, and seafood, and the raw bar shucks Louisiana oysters to order on the half shell.
Beer is a core part of the identity here. The Front Bar pours 38 taps weighted toward the brands that built the bar's reputation, while the Back Bar rotates through 46 craft lines covering lagers, IPAs, and stouts. The walls are lined with photos of deceased celebrities, a running bit regulars call the Beersoleum.
It's a 21-and-over room, unpretentious and neighborhood-facing, the kind of place locals treat as a fixture of Uptown New Orleans.
