Khyber Pass Pub

Gastropub$

Old City's classic rock-and-roll beer bar is Craig Laban’s go-to spot for New Orleans cooking thanks to its “spot-on roast beef po'boys, soulful gumbo, boudin balls, and Benton's bacon grease popcorn that's irresistible with a craft brew in hand.” Once the city’s most beloved indie rock club, the Khyber is mostly a restaurant now, but you can still catch a show upstairs once in a while.
