Common House - New Orleans

The Common House New Orleans is an absolutely incredible venue. I was genuinely surprised by how much space they have and how versatile the layout is. The main sitting area is beautiful, featuring a gorgeous bar that creates a welcoming and upscale atmosphere. The food was outstanding. Whether it was prepared in-house or catered, every dish was excellent—even the roasted vegetable salad was delicious, which says a lot. The staff did a fantastic job keeping everything running smoothly throughout the event. One detail I really appreciated was the restroom design. Each toilet had its own private room, making it much more comfortable and less cramped than most event venues. They even had hooks to hang suit jackets, which was a thoughtful touch. What impressed me most was how quickly the staff transformed the space after the event. Within minutes, rooms were being cleared and prepared for their next use, showing just how adaptable and professionally managed the venue is. Overall, this was an awesome experience. Whether you’re looking for a unique event space, planning a company function, or considering attending one of their scheduled events, The Common House is definitely worth checking out.

**Honest Review** Common House New Orleans is nice for socializing and networking, but if you’re in school and looking for a productive place to consistently study, this honestly is not it. Yes, some days are quieter than others, but overall it’s more of a social environment than a focused workspace. The cleanliness is also a huge issue. The gym bathrooms are disgusting, and the showers constantly have hair stuck on the walls and look like they haven’t been deep cleaned in a very long time. The sauna is also very dirty and feels like it’s been neglected for awhile. Some of their rules honestly make the experience worse too. You can’t bring in outside food, so you’re basically forced to buy theirs — which wouldn’t be as bad if the food was amazing, but it’s really not. An $18 bowl somehow turns into around $25 after all their service fees, plus the minimum tip. The staff also comes across rude and unwelcoming at times. One morning I arrived early to study before opening. I genuinely didn’t know you weren’t allowed inside until they officially opened. The cleaning lady happened to be holding the door open and let me in. Then one of the workers/managers — thinner girl with black hair and lighter skin — immediately goes, “How did you get in?” After I explained the cleaning lady opened the door, she responded with, “Are you even a member here?” The audacity of that question honestly rubbed me the wrong way. Even when ordering food, the people bringing it out act like they don’t even want to be there. And honestly, if I could cancel my membership today, I would. But they make it almost impossible to cancel because of their contract terms, which just adds even more frustration to the experience. Overall, it’s just not worth it in my opinion. If you’re mainly looking for a good study/work environment with clean amenities and welcoming staff, I’d honestly recommend finding another place if possible. Trust me.

$5,000 gone? Common House Charlottesville took our deposit for a wedding event then shut down and won’t refund clients. ‘Ongoing legal process’ apparently means they can’t talk about money. Brides planning events at Richmond, Chattanooga or NOLA locations—be careful. This brand left multiple couples high and dry

Absolutely loved it! Service was amazing! The food and ambiance were great.

Very nice open house.
