    Quarter Rat Magazine is the uncensored voice of the service industry in the French Quarter of New Orleans. From its humble beginnings as a 1-page newsletter in March of ’09, Quarter Rat has grown to a 40+ page digest size magazine. Filled with hilarious local content and outrageous stories, Quarter Rat has become the most talked about publication in the French Quarter.

    Locally owned and operated, Quarter Rat Magazine & Website focus on the people and places that make New Orleans a sought after party destination for over 10,000,000 tourists a year. Most of these tourists reach a level of drunkenness never before witnessed. We write about it. Get the picture?

    Any bartender will tell you, the number one question asked by tourists is, “Where do the locals go?” By giving the folks on the frontlines a common source for entertainment, we’ve made sure that the number one answer is "PICK UP A QUARTER RAT!”
