About this space

Hidden in the basement of a New Orleans-inspired restaurant Storyville, Lulu’s Chambre Privée is a speakeasy that offers a unique twist to traditional French quarter cocktails only found downstairs.

Inspired by one of the most notorious and financially successful madam’s in New Orleans, Storyville, Lulu (1868 – 1931) promoted herself and fellow sex workers, many of whom were also women of color, defying the segregation laws in Louisiana at the time.

An eccentric figure, she was noted for her entrepreneurship, love of jewelry, influence on jazz music, and sex-positive spirit.

Step into lulu’s Chambre Privée and take in the rustic boujee decor, live performances, and exclusive French quarter cocktails from our “Blue Book.” Lulu’s Chambre Privée is open from Thursday through Saturday from 10 pm to 1am.
