A word about our shows

We have a cover charge for most of our shows. 100% of this money goes directly to the musicians — we don't keep a dime. If you get tickets on Eventbrite you are guaranteed a seat for that show, as long as you show up within 15-20 minutes from the show's start time.

This system helps us make sure the musicians receive fair pay, and also allow us to pay our employees properly for their time.

On the Border of the Quarter since 1939, Buffa’s Bar & Restaurant is the quintessential New Orleans style neighborhood bar. We're open 11AM to close seven days a week!
