Insider guide

Shopping Uptown Mag.

The story

Uptown Magazine is Magazine Street from Louisiana Avenue up toward Audubon Park, the 3600 to 6100 blocks. Galleries, menswear, jewelers, antiques and long-running family stores line a residential stretch.

It suits shoppers after local designers, gifts and art more than chains. The 3800 and 3900 blocks are the core, with a gallery cluster and a run of menswear and home shops.

What to Expect

Just above Louisiana Ave, Empire Antiques (3617) specializes in 17th- to 19th-century European furniture, with HGM Fine Jewelry at the same address, and Art & Eyes (3708) sells frames from smaller independent brands. In the 3800 block, Cole Pratt Gallery (3800) shows Southern painters and sculptors, Leontine Linens (3806) does monogrammed bed, bath and table linens, Potsalot Pottery (3818) sells handmade stoneware, Sotre (3820) sells home goods and Swap Boutique (3822) is designer consignment. Mignon Faget, the New Orleans jewelry designer, is moving its shop to a pop-up at 3806. The 3900 block has Greyson Clothiers (3900), Kevin Gillentine Gallery (3917), Billy Reid (3927), Current Crop Roasting Shop (3931), which sells green coffee beans and roasting equipment, and West London Btq. (3952).

Further up, Weinstein's (4011) carries designer women's and men's clothing, Neal Auction Company (4038) holds previews before its sales, Buffalo Exchange (4119) buys, sells and trades clothing, and Pollack Glass Studio & Gallery (4132) sells handmade art glass. Miss Claudia's (4204) has vintage and costumes, Peaches Records (4318) sells vinyl in a former Woolworth's with a 1940s lunch counter, and Magpie (4529) deals in vintage and estate jewelry. Alice and Amelia (4432) and Home Malone (4610) sell local art and gifts, Dirty Coast Uptown (5415) and Scriptura (5423) sit near Jefferson Ave, and Perlis Clothing (6070), family-run since 1939, is known for seersucker, linen and its crawfish logo.

Best Time to Visit

Shops generally open 10–11am and close around 6pm, with Sunday openings around noon. Mignon Faget is open Mon–Sat 10am–6pm and Sun 12–6pm, Dirty Coast Uptown Mon–Thu 11am–6pm and Fri–Sun 10am–6pm, and Buffalo Exchange stays latest, Mon–Sat 11am–8pm and Sun 11am–7pm. Leontine Linens is open Mon–Fri 10am–5pm and Saturday by appointment only.

The first Saturday evening of the month is the Art Walk, 5–8pm (next one Nov 7, 2026), when about 15 galleries, mostly in the 3800 and 3900 blocks, stay open late. Potsalot Pottery, Kevin Gillentine and Pollack Glass take part.

If You Only Have an Hour

Walk the 3800 and 3900 blocks: Cole Pratt Gallery, Leontine Linens, Potsalot Pottery, Sotre and Swap Boutique, then Kevin Gillentine, Billy Reid and Current Crop. Have lunch at La Petite Grocery (Tue–Sat 11:30am–2:30pm), or come back for dinner at Hungry Eyes.

Where to Eat

Four of the restaurants sit in the 4100 and 4200 blocks. Hungry Eyes is a MICHELIN Bib Gourmand, and La Petite Grocery (4238), known for blue crab beignets, Saffron NOLA (4128), which cooks Indian food with Louisiana seafood, and The Kingsway (4201), an Asian-inspired tasting menu, are MICHELIN Recommended. Osteria Lupo (4609) is MICHELIN Recommended for wood-fired pasta and pizza.
