Brennan's

Known For
Tableside bananas Foster in a storied courtyard setting
Brennan's is New Orleans brunch royalty, its floral decor and outdoor seating creating an atmosphere that has anchored the city's dining scene for decades. Come for the bananas Foster, linger in the courtyard long after you should.
🕐Best time to visit: Thursday mornings before the weekend crowds claim it
Our Take
Brennan's pink façade and flowering courtyard have made it one of New Orleans' most photographed dining addresses for good reason — this is where Bananas Foster was invented, and the rooms still feel appropriately theatrical. It's a classic for a reason, though its icon status means the experience can lean more occasion than discovery.
