On the Border of the Quarter since 1939, Buffa's Bar & Restaurant is a true New Orleans style neighborhood bar. Food and libations.
You probably know about Buffa's because they have great musicians performing there. If not, please go sometime. They never have a cover charge which makes it easy to invite friends to come with. Buffa's is a relatively small and comfy longtime neighborhood bar with a back room that serves as an eating area/music room/film and entertainment area separate from the bar. I want to showcase the films in a less formal and more comfortable environment that is small and intimate and therefore offering more personal gatherings for locals. The family owning Buffa's is great and they have a brand new projector plus a huge screen in a non smoking environment serving food. Great combo!
NOLAsynchroniCITY is made possible with support from Buffa's Bar & Restaurant, The Charitable Film Network and Press Street
