This is where it all started for Tropical Isle New Orleans. Tropical Isle® Original was first launched after the 1984 World’s Fair here in New Orleans. After thriving for 20 years on Toulouse Street, Tropical Isle® Original moved across the street to its current location. We have recreated the cozy atmosphere of the old bar while adding several big screen TVs and space for large groups of party goers.

Tropical Isle®Original also has a wide area of Hand Grenade® and Tropical Isle® souvenirs, clothing and novelties as well as mixes of our famous drinks The Hand Grenade®, The Skinny Hand Grenade®, The Horny Gator® and The Tropical Itch® all available for purchase in our logo store located within TIO.Check out our live streaming web camera of our stage at TIO!

The downstairs Tropical Isle® bar presents live entertainment weekly featuring Bryan & The Deacons,  Rhythm & Rain, The First Calls and other great bands specializing in Trop-Rock. The upstairs “Top of the Trop” area has a wrap around balcony with a fabulous view of Bourbon Street, big screen TVs, a pool table and a jukebox filled with lots of Jimmy Buffet music.

The Hand Grenade®, Tropical Itch®, Horny Gator® and Shark Attack are served at both bars. The perfect place for your special event or private party.
