They drew us in with the three for one (it expired by the time we finished the first three). Dilly, dilly! We stayed for hours. Live music inside, a gorgeously tucked away, New Orleans courtyard and a bull riding opportunity outside. Chellie, at the outside bar, was amazing and looked out for us all night. What more can you ask for? One downside was the woman in the bathroom who sold, among other things, the only soap to be had. They might want to work on that.

We came here on NYE and we had a really good time. We loved how their was different sections to the place. It wasnt overly packed when we came but it wasnt dead to where it was boring either

We visited this place back in August.It was our first time visit in New Orleans. Great please. And great drinks. #AvonNola

Bartenders were super cool! great drink prices

Great place to have fun bartenders was great on all levels and that swamp juice was made to perfection

It is truly a swamp. If you go in you have to force your way out. There was some racial prejudice. the shot waitresses were so aggressive and wouldnt take no for an answer. Will not ever go here again

This was a place having a good time. Everyone was drinking and having fun. The staff was friendly and the drink pricing was not bad.

I have been to this place both times I’ve gone to NOLA. I think it’s a “must” bar and one of my favorites, if not my favorite on Bourbon. They always have a hype MC that’s fun and energetic. They have a lower level and an upper level with 3 for 1 specials. They also have a nice outdoor patio with a mechanical bull that is always fun. The bartenders are nice and give fast service. I recommend this on your list of bars to visit . Cheers!

The swamp was so awesome we literally went there all 4 nights of our stay! It was mostly the staff we loved! Brown Sugar (excuse me for not knowing your actual name) was the best experience we had during our entire stay!! This woman is fun and freaky! She knows exactly how to finesse people lol. We loved her so much! We visited her 3 times during our stay! Sarah was friendly and fun! The manager, Mike was very sweet to us as well. Cant wait to come back!

This is one of the more popular bars on Bourbon street. They have a friendly staff with cheap drink prices. I enjoy watching people on the mechanical bull always makes me laugh

Bartender was great...cute tattooed Tulane chic...great attitude and we enjoyed watching LSU win Natty here. Lots of space and multiple bars. The noisy Clemson fans calmed down towards the end as LSU took the victory which made it better.

Ive only been at night so cannot speak to the day time ambiance but this bar was amazing! I had so much dancing, drinking and meeting folks.

We rode the mechanical bull and enjoyed drinks on the top floor where it looks like a tree has grown on the side of the wall. Also, theres a bathroom up there.

Great staff. Ride the bull!

This place is tons of fun! I love the bull and the atmosphere is pretty awesome. The music is always on point as well!

Riding the bull was fun. 3 for 1 drinks were good.

Drinks are amazing, rideable mechanical bull in the back. Definitely a spot worth stopping for.

Fun place. Great drink specials with a happy hour that lasts until 9pm!

Had a great time for birthday with fam they enjoyed the bull ride I enjoyed the mix drinks

Fun new orleans spot. Usually have a mechanical bull. Was down because if rain. Typical dirty naleans bar

Very cordial staff and great deals on drinks. Highly recommended

Best bucket beer happy specials we came across on Bourbon street! You pick if you want to be part of the party inside or hang out and chill on the patio bar. I appreciated the options because i wasnt trying to go all out at noon. Lol

I love this place. I was in new Orleans with my brotger in law sunday night around 6:47pm... He and i lost each other. Because we were tourists and are from mobile al, i did not know anyone and the fact he had my wallet, phone and id. Two amazing wonderful bartenders, Kirsten and the man who looks like Ross from friends (sorry i dont know your name) helped me out the whole night (after they got off work obviously lol i had met them while wandering about ), they stayed with me until my siblings came and drove three hours to pick me up.Even when they didnt need to look after me, or didnt have to bother with me they still wanted to make sure i was in safe hands. They are hands down very sweet and very down to earth ! Thank you for such wonderful bartenders and humans!

Patrons are awesome! Was down for my friends bachelorette party, everyone made us feel very welcome. Someone bought my friend a ride on the swamp thing. Hilarious fun!

Good music. There are two levels. When I was there the DJ downstairs was more entertaining, however, the dance floor is small and cramp. Upstairs felt a bit bigger and AC flows better also has a balcony area.

It was a great tour, my friends and I enjoyed it. Groupon sent us here.

One of the better bars on bourbon. Great place to watch a game.

Listen to what everyone is saying about the shot girls! There was one girl who would not leave my friends and I alone and kept forcing those syringe shots down our throats. She would literally walk up and refuse to take no for an answer. At first we said, “Yes we’ll take 1.” so she would go away as we were just trying to relax and enjoy our time, and she wouldn’t leave! She was pushy and rude and I will never go back.

Cool place to grab a drink, and ride the mechanical bull as you listen to the sounds.

I love the swamp vool people work here

Pretty good band, drinks were competitive with other bars on the street. Definitely plan to visit again.

I cant wait to go back

Terrible name was a beautiful place to visit I must check if you were in New Orleans small little spot with great service close to hotels and tons of bars on Bourbon. Enjoyed our stay and will be back again in this small little place. Terrible name, great service. A1 top shelf yeet

Love the vibe.And the 3 for 1 drinks are a bonus.

Cheap drinks with good specials!! The place struggled to stay Lit, Poppin with customers. A handful came in at one point and got busy but didnt last long. But the music selection and drinks was on point. I guess people didnt want to stay in one place!

Life music and entertainment with drinks at balcony

This was have been my second time to New Orleans it was amazing never a dull moment at this place loved it completely me and my party enjoyed

Great atmosphere and drink prices! Loved the mechanical bull.

Really good all around people and the service is top notcb!

Mechanical bull in the back. Very entertaining to watch people. 3 for 1 drink specials. Great outside area, the bathrooms are outside bartenders were good, quick service. Space to dance, solid music.

Fun bar, the bull is hilarious, only $5 to ride twice. Fun to watch drunk people fight gravity.

Fun place great bloody Marys

I was totally satisfied with this place until we checked out after only having one drink and the total with the tip was 20 dollars but we got a mobile notification that 50 dollars was charged to the card. Not cool

Good music, great balcony to enjoy the festivities from.

Had a blast here. People were friendly all around

Talk about a good time! Great music, friendly atmosphere and watching ppl attempt to stay on that mechanical bull is pure entertainment at its BEST.

Fun place. Great drink specials. Fun vibe.

If you like the bucking bronco and good drink offers try this place

I love love love this place. Had a blast the Mc and Dj are amazing. I visit here everytime I go to Nola! Best long islands.

Great staff on a Monday. Good drinks

We were enjoying a cigarette outside when a girl who was selling shots came over to us. I told her I didnt want a shot because I was going to puke. She insisted and forced shots on us. She then said We owed her 20 plus tip. Warning. They will take advantage of you. Becareful in there

Its awesome on burben st and anybody can go upstairs have a drink on the balcony Im going next time

Super cheap drinks and friendly staff.Mostly disappointed because nothing was Shrek themed.

Nice bull ride. Decent atmosphere. Inside and outside venue. Just a really really bad MC

Hole in the wall... But if you want to get a good buzz on, its ok I guess!

Good pop music to dance to. Upstairs has a balcony

Very good deals on drinks. They have a balcony, so remember to bring your beads!!! One of the outside bartenders was extremely disrespectful however. Manager was extremely helpful when told about the problem. Overall a pleasant time.

Gotta go straight upstairs for buy 1 beer get 2 free. Otherwise be paying 10 dollars for one beer downstairs. Also this is an appropriate place to get thrown off a bull!

I loved this place we had a great time and its only $5 to ride the bull!!!

Im almost 40 but OMG what a great time!

I Love coming here to watch the Saints play!! I just wish there were more stools.

The stairs had bottles and cans on them causing my friend to fall. I told the bouncer, and he just shrugged his shoulders. He then proceeded to check IDs. I think safety should be first when you have people that become extremely intoxicated traveling up and down a steep flight of stairs. Be careful in heels, ladies. I wont be back!

I love it here. Always have great music.

Great happy hour deals, and the drinks are tasty and refreshing. The bartender made up drinks for us, and they were delicious and went down dangerously easily. We went in the mid afternoon, but with the mechanical bull (aka swamp thing) and the girl tooter shots (replace t with h and you get the idea) I could see the place being a drunken mess late at night. If thats what youre looking for (and who isnt on Bourbon Street) then by all means make sure you stop by!

Very fun...drinks with an attitude

Such a fun experience here! Me and my friends had a blast on the swamp thing even if I do have a little limp now 10/10 will be back and do it again lol

Excellent.... Great service and great people!

Bartender was a douche tonight. Usually have a great time there. Lots of Music u can dance and enjoy.

Awesome place! Music to get you moving, good selection of drinks, and a mechanical bull (The Thang!) nestled at the back of the courtyard bar (with a cool, friendly bartender). Have some drinks, shake your rump, and RIDE THE BULL!!

This place was better than expected.

Hypean kept the crowd it was nice

One of best places Ive been to on bourbon street

Nice out side bar. Fun time with friends.

Nice staff, outside bar to drink and smoke

The staff has a blatant lack of respect for everything pertaining to the word professionalism

Can’t really remember much but pretty sure I had a great time! Didn’t lose my wallet or keys and the drinks were strong so overall I would go back if I could find this place!

Great Foot and Service!

This place was Aweosme! I just went here to dance since I dont drink but the dancing was so fun. They have live person singing along and a bull to ride.

Great live music. Good place to have fun with friends.

Ride the Bull! Venue has a Bathroom Attendant for us men. Bathroom attendant has mouthwash, Cologne selection, gum, deodorant, candy, and more. Jenna the shot girl was pleasant and respresented The Swamp through her excellent customer service.

Never a disappointment. Always a good stop while in the quarter.

The music selection was spot on for a Friday night, a good mix of old and new. Warning, the shot girls are really aggressive and the shots are disgusting. Bar pours friendly and prices are in line with the rest of the area. Still, the best bar on Bourbon Street.

The Remedy Band, featuring Tracey Anne-Jolie is the best band by far on Bourbon!!!

The upstairs can be rented for a private event. The balcony is right on Bourbon Street, great location. The staff is laid back and nice. Theres a mechanical bull on the first floor. Its not an upscale place, but it is fun!

Lovely staff, great bar. Happy to go again

Great open busy balcony view Awesome shots

I got some chicks here so I guess it was good.

Live local, ride my bicycle down here to hang with friends who work on Bourbon. Love to sit on the balcony and chill. Watch those shot girls, though, lol. Hey, theyre there for fun, but you gotta watch them. Its a bit of showmanship, but it can get expensive fast. There are a number of bars inside The Swamp, so if its too busy at the inside bars, go outside!

A lot of fun! Bartender had pretty eyes

This bar is always popping with the best music

Great time! Great atmosphere!!!

Fun place with strong drinks, great music, and VJs that keep the place hype!

For tourists it is great. For me as a local it is okay.

Strong drinks made of cheap alcohol, of course this is one of your many stops on your drunken night on Bourbon street.

Great fun bar...live music and mechanical bull....

I love the indoor/outdoor/ upstairs club setting

This was a great dance club! Was there on NYE and the music was phenomenal. They could use more ventilation

The bull is so much fun but bring some sanitizing wipes to wipe it down before u get on

Not happening again the staff just wanted your money and way to much of it. Homeless are begging every where

Good drinks great staff
