If you're like us and are inclined to have more than just one or two mimosas with your brunch, you probably know it's a safe bet to go with bottomless brunches. This, of course, means you pay one pre-determined price for the privilege of having as many mimosas or Bloody Marys with your meal as you'd like. Whether you drink one, two or 10, the drink price stays the same and your wallet won't make you feel bad about yourself. Here are just a few locales that feature this modern-day wonder known as bottomless brunch.

Katie's Restaurant

This family-owned Mid-City spot has been a local favorite ever since it first opened as a small lunch restaurant in 1984. Katie's has been under management from two different families. The Leininger family sold their restaurant to the Craig family, whom they rightfully trusted to uphold their legacy, and they did … even reopening in the wake of Katrina, better than ever. Katie's food menu is vast, with a rich New Orleans theme apparent in their dishes like crawfish beignets, chargrilled oysters and po-boys, but the real gem is their bottomless brunch. For $15, you can order as many mimosas, Bloody Marys and sangrias as you could possibly want. Drink up! 3701 Iberville St., (504) 488-6582

The Country Club

Located in the Bywater, this restaurant really is a true country club. Even if you've never set foot in a country club before now, based on knowledge from movies and TV, you'll agree this is definitely a country club-style restaurant. With the pool and hot tub in the back, separated from the calmer atmosphere of the restaurant, you could spend your entire day at this place—swimming, drinking and eating. And drinking. They have a great menu with a large selection of dishes, but more importantly, bottomless mimosas for brunch on Saturdays and Sundays! Don't forget, you must be 21 and up with a valid ID to enter. 634 Louisa St., (504) 945-0742

Apolline Restaurant

Before we describe the following work of art to you, please don't get it twisted. This is not, we repeat NOT included in their bottomless mimosa and Bloody Mary brunch special. However, we couldn't live with ourselves if we didn't tell you about Apolline's Deluxe Bloody Mary. Along with the vodka and house-made Bloody Mary mix, the drink (or small meal) contains bacon, a biscuit, shrimp, beans, okra, olives, celery, lemon and lime. It really is essentially a meal with vodka in it. If you aren't feeling quite that adventurous, they do have the unlimited (normal) Bloody Mary and mimosa brunch special from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m., and we wish you well on your search for the bottom of the glass! 4729 Magazine St., (504) 894-8881

Broussard's

Located in the French Quarter, Broussard's has been an iconic New Orleans restaurant ever since it opened in 1920. It's located in a mansion that was built in 1834 and is more on the fancy side of things. The atmosphere is elegant yet friendly; that is to say, the fanciness is not intimidating and the staff are all very helpful, nice, and very good at serving up completely delectable classic New Orleans dishes as well as—you guessed it—unlimited, bottomless mimosas! 819 Conti St., (504) 581-3866

Cane and Table

The food at Cane and Table is self-proclaimed as "rustic" and "colonial". But were bottomless brunch cocktails a thing during colonial times? Maybe, maybe not. This locale, located on Decatur Street in the French Quarter, has both great food and great drinks, but their bottomless brunch might just take the (pan)cake. A lot of places that have a bottomless brunch only serve mimosas and/or Bloody Marys. But Cane and Table offers a wider variety of bottomless drinks to choose from, including "La Paloma"—which is a mix of tequila, lime, grapefruit soda and salt, along with a couple other concoctions as well as the classic mimosa and Bloody Mary. 1113 Decatur St., (504) 581-1112

Basin Seafood & Spirits

This Magazine Street venue sprouted up after a fisherman accidentally made the best ceviche he or his friends had ever tasted. He caught a snapper in the Mississippi and made it into this delicious dish, and from that ceviche was born Basin Seafood & Spirits—a local spot to get brunch, lunch, dinner, and not to mention great drinks (hence the latter part of their name). On Saturdays and Sundays, they offer bottomless mimosas during brunch. So make your way over to the Basin to try out their delicious food—which ranges beyond just seafood—and more importantly, to enjoy their endless mimosa brunch! 3222 Magazine St., (504) 302-7391

Trenasse

This storefront restaurant in the Central Business District's InterContinental Hotel uses regionally farmed ingredients to complement their creative dishes. Trenasse serves oysters all day in addition to soups, salads, po-boys, desserts and wine.
