Dovetail Bar is a craft cocktail and coffee venue located in the lobby of the Schaeffer Hotel; a boutique property on the periphery of the French Quarter. Set within a historic 1923 building originally constructed as a showroom and workshop for Alsatian furniture maker J.P. Schaeffer, the bar blends heritage with modern hospitality. Designed with reverence for the past, Dovetail Bar highlights original cypress beams, heart pine floors, and reclaimed wood from the structure itself. Subtle joinery details and warm timber finishes create a space that tells the story of craftsmanship, connection, and care. True to its name, Dovetail Bar unites two traditions: expertly crafted cocktails and specialty coffee. Our bartenders and baristas bring precision and creativity to every drink, offering guests an experience where history, design, and hospitality meet seamlessly.
