We booked drag brunch at The Country Club in advance because we’d heard it was one of the best in New Orleans. The venue is beautiful. What was once a historic home has been transformed into a series of dining rooms connected by a central bar, and the staff runs everything with impressive efficiency. From check-in to drink orders to the arrival of our food, everything moved smoothly. The drag show itself starts about 30 minutes after you’re seated, which is just enough time to settle in, get your food and drink, and take in the space. We were seated in a side dining room, and it’s helpful to know that the queens rotate from room to room, one at a time, throughout each set. That means there are moments when the energy of the show fills your room—and moments when you’re simply enjoying a meal with friends to the soundtrack of high-energy music. (And yes, the music is loud, but that’s part of the fun.) The performers were upbeat, engaging, and fun, with the kind of variety you expect in any good drag show—some queens were more polished than others, but everyone brought spirit and sparkle. This isn’t a comedy-heavy or narrative performance like you might find at a late-night bar show; it’s a joyful, lip-sync-forward experience that fits perfectly with the brunch setting. All in all: good food, fun atmosphere, strong drinks, and a celebratory vibe. I’d recommend it to friends visiting New Orleans—especially if they want to do something festive and fabulous on a Sunday morning.

Food was amazing. Music was energetic. The performers could have been more entertaining. Seems they walked into the room collected money then left. Not too entertaining with singing and dancing.
