I love living just down the street from this cute little bar, the people are always so nice and the drinks are a great price! Not to mention the most stellar days ever when you see someone cooking outside and get to stop in for a bite!

Fun dive bar, serves great drinks and the best crawfish boil in New Orleans! Fast, great service and a laid back atmophere. Loved it, will be a regular spot.

Bustling neighborhood bar on NFL Sundays.
Otherwise, good neighborhood watering hole. A mix of regulars and visitors.

Came into visit the Bywater area. Went to Markey’s as it was close to the house we rented.
Jordan, what a perfect bartender and great person to convers with. We ended up drinking them outta Jack Daniels that Wednesday night. Came back Thursday, no Jack due to supply line issue. I gave Roy, the owner, a little grief about not having Jack. Little while later, as we sat outside, the bartender on duty walked out with a Jack for me. Told me Roy was able to talk his distributor into a bottle. THAT is customer service.
GREAT local bar, wish my local bar was this good.

We got in on a late flight to New Orleans, and this place was our introduction to the city. It was perfect. Stiff drinks, fresh po boys, and friendly staff. We’ll come back when we come back someday!

Great local sports/dive-ish bar/ New Orleans institution. Tons of TVs for games. Crawfish boils on Fri and Sun (seasonal), darts, shuffleboard, outdoor seating. Bartenders are great!! Friendly local crowd with some out-of-towners mixed in. Poker machines, so no kiddos allowed inside. Regular kitchen will be opening up again soon.

Great neighborhood bar--the nachos rocked.my.world and are now on my Top 5 list of Nest Nachos of My Lifetime 👏🙌
Attentive and accommodating bar staff--really welcoming to our large group of post-wedding out-of-towners ❤

One of our favorite local watering holes. Good food and great drinks. Plenty of tvs for watching the big game and they even have a few bar games for customer use.

I visit this place every time I’m in New Orleans. This is, to me, the epitome of a dive bar. I enjoy the beer selection and the food as well (reading the other reviews it seems they don’t serve food anymore though). I’m headed to NoLa next week and I can’t wait to go to Markeys and have a Pimms cup.

Loved this neighborhood bar when we lived in Bywater. I am only docking 1 star because of all the fair weather Eagles fans.

Our go to place for sports watching as they play the games with the volume on. No food so you get to bring in whatever you want to eat which is fine by me. People are friendly, lots of TVs darts, etc. Perfect.

Markey’s Bar is the second oldest family run bar in New Orleans! A landmark in the Bywater Roy Markey has continued the tradition of three generations making this a must do in New Orleans! Raise a pint of Guinness and enjoy the local crowds

Great old neighborhood bar that's been in the area for over 70 years. Friendly, attentive bartenders who'll remember you, and great music on the sound system. I couldn't put together a better Pandora mix. Food, shuffleboard, any game you want to watch...this place caters to a surprisingly wide variety of patrons. Highly recommended.

Great neighborhood bar! Watch sports on the many TV sets, eat good pizza and have a drink in a relaxed atmosphere. Numerous beers on tap and more in a bottle. All at a fair price.
Tee Dubbs
Best neighborhood bar I have ever stepped foot in. I make it a point to rent a house near this great establishment everytime I visit NOLA. The service is always great, even on busy nights. The food is some of the best bar food I've ever had. The bacon wrapped hot dogs; fried shrimp; and queso dip are my favorites! Every night I go out on the town, I finish up here.
Collin Husbands
This is, bar none, the best bar in the city of New Orleans. Food - off the charts good. Drinks - put any beer garden to shame and the Dark & Stormy is the best around (they have ginger beer on tap). The people watching is unbelievable (I spent time with a woman who is in deep, committed love with her bearded dragon and a Rosie the Riviter look-a-like that makes chocolate (but doesn't sell it?!?). BUT...the best part is Mr. Roy Markie. A great man and fixture in the neighborhood. The service is unmatched. Do not miss this bar!

My mates and I never really venture too far outside our immediate neighbourhood in the lower French Quarter … that said, the three of us decided to explore the Bywater and stop by one of our ol’ faves — Markey’s Bar — and it DID NOT disappoint. Chapeau to bartenders Jordan and Kat for great service and even better smiles …
Heather Safronova

IT"S ON !!!!. It seems that fans of Markeys' are in luck. This longtime landmark in the by water is gearing up for an exciting football season. As of September 8 the bar and kitchen will be open at 11:00am daily, offering the usual menu items with a some new twists. They will also be offering happy hour prices daily from 11am till 6pm including, $5 Jameson shots with a pint of your choice, High Life or PBR. They will also be offering $3 Absolut or Sailor Jerry cocktails and, $1 off craft beers on tap. They've also done some painting and remodeling over the summer in addition to adding outdoor seating and, more screens so that no one will miss the action!!!!
Laurie Casebonne
Kitchen back. Food is back at Markey's just in time for football. Really good bar food like little burgers and chicken wings. Good prices, too.
Stan Big Daddy Strembicki
No more food at Markey's. This is a great neighborhood bar, lots of HD TV's and the beer nice and cold. Used to have a great little kitchen that made really good po-boys, but they have closed it now.
