Gold Mine Saloon

Description

Gold Mine Saloon: It's dark, sweaty and usually jam-packed inside this brick-and-wood building which was once a horse stable and, in the '60s, a biker bar. Jack Daniels whiskey barrels serve as tables, while two pool tables and foosball provide entertainment. One of the few clearly heterosexual dance spots in the French Quarter, the Gold Mine draws slightly left-of-center college types and 30-somethings alike, looking to drink, dance and mingle.
