Bordering the Mississippi and the French Quarter, Bywater is also called Bywater-Burg because of its similarity to Brooklyn's Williamsburg. The neighborhood's hipster culture dates back to the 40s when Jack Kerouac jumped from the cross-country train and it is still the place where young people in particular can be found. Like at Bacchanal where you can enjoy a fantastic evening on plastic garden chairs in the messy backyard among the hipster locals, after first choosing your bottle of wine and paying for it in the wine shop. You can get cocktails upstairs and there is a live band playing almost every evening. Probably the nicest place in NOLA (New Orleans Louisiana)! Bacchanal Wine
