From Japanese to Southern soul food, there’s a cuisine for almost everyone - and Freret Street is only two blocks from the Alder Hotel.Īnother plus? Freret’s Uptown location means it attracts a smaller, more local crowd, which equals shorter waits at excellent, off-the-beaten-path bars and eateries.

Once a sleepy neighborhood thoroughfare bordering Tulane University, Freret Street has undergone a revival over the past decade, becoming a food and entertainment destination in its own right.
