BAR PACKAGES

As a full-service hotel and restaurant, the ATC requires us to be the sole vendor for alcohol on-site.

Meaning, if you book an event at Margaret Place you must use our bar packages.

However, unlike other venues, the bar is not where we make our money. Rather, as a thoroughly New Orleanian institution, we see the bar as being as important as water or electricity (and something we feel we build our reputation on). Therefore, we only offer a single package of highly curated brands that we know we can reliably use to build exceptional drinks.
