The Boot is located at the heart of uptown New Orleans. We are primarily famous for our killer specials and our proximity to Tulane and Loyola Universities. We also love seeing our alumni and local friends as well as hosting special events and private parties.
History
Established in 1966.
The Boot was founded by an Italian New Orleans family in the mid 1960s. Before it became the landmark it is today, it was a grocery store turned bar called Eddie Price’s. The name, «The Boot,» comes from the shape of the owners’ home country as well as the shape of Louisiana. Over the years it has developed into the primary watering hole for students, faculty, staff, and alumni of Tulane and Loyola universities, as well as a popular destination for local New Orleans’ residents.
