It was my 1st time visiting New Orleans and we walked by the shop and luckily stopped in. The woman working there was so helpful, nice and dedicated to us having a great experience. There were so many cute custom clothes, jewelry and shoes. Everything was reasonably priced. Overall great atmosphere great clothes and amazing service. I would highly recommend.
My friend and I visited New Orleans recently, and I had been telling her about trying to find a goth/alternative boutique in the French Quarter, since I am of the opinion that those are always around (and thanks goodness for that, it makes my goth little heart happy), and shortly after we came upon the beauty that is Road Kill. The store carries a wide variety of alternative, retro and gothic brands and everything is displayed so beautifully.I ended up purchasing a Hell Bunny dress I had been lusting after and I am grateful the staff allowed me to try it on.The people who work there are kind, professional and very helpful.
Road Kill boutique is officially my favorite shop in New Orleans. The company is warm and the people are amazing. Everyone working in the shop is totally down to earth and willing to help out at the drop of a dime. The hip atmosphere and outstanding handmade garments. Well have you jumping with Glee. All in all Road Kill and its sister store Toxic are a must see if youre in the New Orleans area.
The staff at this store are friendly and super helpful. They went above and beyond to help me make sure I got the correct size for an online order!
Wonderful shop in the French Quarter. The staff were amazing both days I went in. Will recommend to all my friends if/when they visit New Orleans!
I absolutely love it here the customer service is excellent and they have so many unique clothing and accessories it’s worthy of a second trip back to New Orleans.
No photos! This place is cool and unique. I bought some amethyst and an arrowhead. People wearing masks. Cool shoes really cool cool shoes. And body jewelry and clothing. There was a plague doctor mask for only 40 dollars not bad I guess.
Friendly, helpful, an amazing selection. I wanted one of everything.
The staff was very nice and patient. My sister and I bought our first pair of Demonias as well as tried on some skirts. They were very helpful and gave advice with clothing and knew what they were talking about :)
Its called Road Kill... Whats not to like. Just cool stuff.
Awesome quaint little shop with plenty to choose from. The proprietor was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Thank you for your assistance.Goth, Rock, Steam Punk... boots, shoes, sandals, band shirts and lots more..Must visit!!
Great staff and great products! Always helpful and always a good time visiting!
Great clothes, great shoes, and great staff!
Punk/Goth/Alt like they dont make anymore.
Road Kill saved my New Years! My jacket I owned didnt work, I rushed over to Road Kill 30 minutes to closing time on New Years Eve expecting them to be closed or not in a great mood with me coming that close to closing and it was further from the truth. The 2 people working, sorry I forgot your names, were the absolute best! Super helpful, went out of their way to make me look good at a great price. They have alot of stuff Ive never seen before, The store is awesome, everything you can imagine, my only regret was I came near close and could look more. I had so many complaints on my outfit, THANK YOU GUYS!!You are my first store I stop at in New Orleans every time I stop from now on.And anyone in the area you have to stop for all your costume needs! You wont be disappointed. This is The Top Stop in NOLA for me!
Very nice people working there. Great selection of quality pieces!
Super glad I went into this store!! Where I’m from I unfortunately don’t see many stores like this, so as a first experience it was great! The employees were really nice and the lady inside helped me get fitted into a corset. Definitely a good place to stop at if you’re into gothic/alternative style apparel.
Just picked up some doc sandals and the employees are all extremely welcoming and efficient! The environment is awesome definitely recommend this shop!
Great store awesome employees very knowledgeable the owner works side by side with them I recommend it to anyone
A truly unique shop in the French Quarter, without question a place you can not miss before leaving the city.
Great people. Found Doc Martin size 13. Very rare find this time of year.Very friendly and knowledgeable
Hot Topic’s less angsty and more attractive older sister. I’m obsessed with everything in this store! A lot of steam punk and unique pieces. LOVE.
Take the time to see everything this place has to offer!!! really great finds if you like their styles, which I do!
This shop is not your run of the mill souvenir shop. They carry unusual and distinctive items. May be a little risque for some people but its New Orleans where the atmosphere is more relaxed and carefree. We enjoyed our visit, talked with the owners who are very hands on and really seem to enjoy meeting new people. We purchased a few things, reasonably priced and all quality items.
Neat goth/alt shop with awesome staff
The wares were unique and the staff was very helpful. We took there card. Highly recommended!
This store is awesome!! They have all kinds of neat treasures and wonderful shoes!! I wish I lived closer so I could go everyday but it definitely a store to try if you are in town! Staff was extremely friendly and helpful!
If you are looking for something that is so not your Mamas style then this is where you look. Beautiful clothes and costumes and unique gifts are found here. Full disclosure... I am a mom and I loved it. Then again, Im a little different...
Would recommend this place to anyone no matter what walk of life these ppl take care of anyone and everyone and have the merch that no one else has,,,must stop in...
This is a really cool little shop. The staff is friendly in a detached, aloof kind of way. The merchandise is pretty neat, lots of unique hand made pieces but a fair amount of more reasonably priced gear. Also they have a bunch of neat socks, which is always a selling point for me.
Found so many great dresses here. I cant wait to come back when Im in NOLA.
All the workers were so friendly and very helpful. They had the cutest shoes too, it was great!
I LOVE this boutique. I come everytime I can
Road Kill is the BEST! ALWAYS the absolute besty best best!!!!! Very kind staff & employees, filled with some of the prettiest great-quality clothing & accessories ever combined with a homey & welcoming friendly atmosphere. Kudos majorly to John (the owner) & every single one of his employees. Theyre all sharp as tacks and know to a T what theyre doing.
Super cool people.Rocking little shop with lots of clothing, shoes and accessories focusing on the goth lifestyle.
A brilliant amalgam of genres and styles guaranteed to suit anyone from punk rockers to princesses!
The stuff in there is extremely cool and made for a connoisseur of high quality fashionable threads. If you are into steampunk or gothic style wear, then this is your nirvana. But you can also find trendy fashions in there as well. Excellent experience, very highly recommended!
This place always has the coolest finds! I could spend my entire paycheck here. The staff is very sweet.
Great and unique selection of clothing. Staff very helpful and friendly. Highly recommend this store.
I’ve never written a review so please be nice lol! i came to their store today (visiting new orleans on an off day.) and there was a Pink Floyd song playing. so i yell over to my mom, “hey mom! they’re playing pink floyd!” and the guy at the front (i forgot to catch his name SMH) started talking to me about Pink Floyd. we went on and on and finally he came from the back with a pair of Pink Floyd socks! i looked all around the store and they weren’t anywhere in sight. i’m pretty sure he got them just for me. was it love at first sight or good customer service? i have no idea but it will definitely be a wonderful memory. thank you so so much to the man that was a dancer for a few Pink Floyd shows. i’ll remember you :)
Quality clothing, off the charts gorgeous Victorian and rockabilly pieces! Great staff. I always come here whenever in NOLA. Heck, theyre in my current novel, because my main character loves them, too! 😉Go! Shop! Decadent indulgance!
Fun shop! The corset dresses were so beautiful!
LOVE this little boutique! In spite of the name, they sell really beautiful clothes and accessories. Viola was very friendly and helpful, (also from San Diego like me!) and help get me fitted for a corset. I got a black overbust steel boned corset from here. It was pricey but I had saved up for it and its worth every penny. Supportive and sturdy, I wear it as part of my tour guide costume.
Dont let the name scare you. Youll be surprised what you can find inside.
I love this store and adjoining gallery for their fun style. Youll find plenty of dressy pieces in the steampunk style and a great selection of shoes and hats. The mens selection is a little smaller than the womens. The staff is usually friendly but not overbearing. The prices are fairly reasonable, but the discount rack isnt really discounted much.
Excellent selection of unique clothing. Very helpful friendly staff
Amazing customer service and was treated well. They have a range of sizes from small to plus sizes. This made me very happy and I was able to walk out with a beautiful dress that fit great. Thank you, Roadkill for making a girl feel special!
Coolest shop in NOLA. Quality merch. Not cheap tourist junk, but the real deal. If you ride motorcycles, you have to stop by. Goth, burlesque cool stuff. This is a must stop every time were in New Orleans.
I love this store, I want almost everything in there. If youre a rocker, rockabilly, ..... This is a store you want to visit. They have everything from shoes to body jewelry. All Bad@$$
Cool shop lots of unique clothing and shoes. The old dude working the shoes is great.
NICE STORE!!! Wanted to buy this cute purse but didn’t because I was literally being watched like a hawk by one of the workers which is perfectly fine, I understand they do not want people shoplifting! But the woman was watching me SO HARD that she bumped into me MULTIPLE TIMES! NEXTTTTTT! 😡
The staff is very helpful i really enjoyed browsing the products they had on selection they also had a pretty nice knife case in the back of the place.
I love this store!!...selling stuff you wont see anywhere. How great!!
While we were in NOLA, we always stop in to see their unique items. John the owner wasnt in when we were there. They didnt have many choices for leather bags nor silver rings for men. The place is still very cool.
Great place to find some amazing clothes for me and women. The corsets are reasonably prices and are definitely worth looking at. My wife found many items that she loved here.
I went in to buy the wild contacts, so the young employee had said that particular style would be $69, so in said i would come in the next day. So i did asked for the same contacts and the manager says now the price for those same style were now $350. So its confirmed that if they see you as a tourist or as a dummy they will milk for money.
I found 2 fantastic items here. A feather high collar and a great coat. The staff here were incredibly patient with helping me try things on and answering my questions. I highly recommend this place for cool looks, like steampunk, slightly goth and the like. Could probably find great stuff for cosplaying as well.
A great store. Has an interesting array of wares and very friendly staff. Ended up buying a coat and a hat here.
Awesome baphomet backpack. Many unique items
Super fun to browse and employees have a lot of personality!
“Owner” with a beard who hides in the back is a bigot. Kicks you out for no reason other than because he doesn’t “want you in there anymore,” when asked why. You can buy all of the stuff they have in store directly from the seller online instead. Other reviews on Yelp and other places have stated mistreatment for not being white and straight. Save yourself the trouble and find a better experience on a trip to NOLA.
A little pricey but they have the coolest clothes and shoes. I guess the salespeople are on commission because they follow you around the store pushing every item you look at. Thats a big turnoff to me because I like to browse in peace. I am more likely to walk out of the store than buy something when I get this treatment. In fact, I usually get so unnerved by their constant hounding that I turn around and leave. Can someone please tell them its downright creepy to keep making the same selling point over and over.
The girl helping me find the right size corset and other clothing was extremely rude and unhelpful sighing and giving me dirty looks when I asked for another size. I purchased over 3000 worth of clothing from here in the past 6 months and had one problem with a pair if shoes being defective. The manager was extremely rude and dismissive as if I was stupid for thinking they would help me figure out how to fix the problem.If the clothing wasnt so one of a kind Id never have come back the second time. Wont be returing again.
Love this store! Extremely helpful staff. Huge variety of products. Highly recommended checking it out.
We found a few great dresses and shoes for my gal. They have a good selection of Doc Marten also....I owned everyone of them already. I really wanted to spend more money there than I did.
The finest selection of goth clothing in all of the French Quarter. You must see this place.....
Beware... cool store with a lousy policy for defective items. My wife bought some shoes, put them on before leaving the store to walk around and the sole fell apart from the shoe in about 4 hours of walking around in them. When we went back, they didnt have her size to exchange them, and refused to issue us a refund, saying they would only give store credit for another item, which we didnt want. They sold us a defective product and didnt make it right.
My favorite shop in the quarter! 🖤🖤🖤 Lots of spooky stuffs and funky finds. Definitely a must shop.
This place was the best, found great unique stuff in there and the staff was super friendly!
They have up to size 4x insome things, and their womens shoes go up to 11 in some pairs. Theyre fantastic, and everything is so cute!,
After stepping into this charming shop and looking around for a couple minutes, I made the HUGE mistake f taking out my phone to take a pic of some super cute shoes to show my daughter. Unfortunately, I was not a responsible customer to scan the store before hand, and didnt notice the NO PICTURES ALLOWED signs he has posted somewhere in his shop. My bad I guess...the owner yelled at my friend and me to GET THE F*%K out of his shop, NOW! I apologized and said I didnt see his notice, was looking at merchandise - and didnt want to ruin his day, he was visibly upset. He quipped that it wouldnt ruin his day at all and went on to rant about technology, photos, and lower prices elsewhere. It was a 1st for me, never been thrown out of anywhere in all of my 46 years. I just wanted to share his bizarre, rude and confrontational behavior with anyone who might accidentally pull a phone out in his shop. SMFH....
Fun rock-a-billy and steam punk attire. The owner Jon is amazing
Awesome stuff. A wide selection.
The number one best clothing store Ive ever been to, unique items that are worth every dollar
A nice little store with a good selection of clothes and shoes. A few jackets and lots of alternative odds and ends. Helpful people, and friendly as well.
Nice place to find unusual apparel and the shopkeeper was super friendly and a kind hearted lady.
Get ideas from here not products, I bought a cigarette case from here I left and noticed sides were peeling with dirt under the art work in front, went back owner was like no refunds man wouldnt even let me exchange it was it was fine yesterday thoroughly inspect everything before you buy it
Good place for clothes you wont see in a mainstream retail store.
Just a wonderful shop a great staff and I just enjoyed myself Im going back and Im going to keep telling people about the place its phenomenal
If you like to dress different, then this is the place for you.
Staff was very helpful and the selection is great!
Great, unique merchandise.The wall of corsets, shoe closet and steampunk accessories is great.The owners are so friendly.
Would never buy anything here. The owner is extremely rude and the products arent that special. Might be good for finding an idea but definitely buy elsewhere.
My new favorite costume shop. I could spend a fortune here!
Killer knife selection, great hipster stuff.
Only problem, I want everything in this store! Great place for Goth, Rockabilly, Steampunk, and rockin clothes, shoes, and accessories. Pricey but the items are excellent quality.
This place is awesome. The selection is great and the staff was very helpful.
15 yrs,and u still go once a month,Johns the owner, cool guy.great ppl.
Love the fashion and employees. I m from Louisiana but moved away 30yrs ago so this is one of my favorite spots.
VERY interesting place to put it mildly lol
Cool ass people, got to love Viola and Sara genuine gals ever!
Great place to find goth/steampunk/alternative clothing, jewellery, and much, much, more.
Rude!!! I got up early and rode my bike to the store when they were supposed to be open. I called about ten minutes after opening time to ask if they were opening soon and the owner was extremely nasty (using a sarcastic indignant tone of voice). She said she would be coming in an hour after opening time if even then. Looks like they just lost one of their local customers.... also their stuff is cheap, overpriced and falls apart. :P
Love this sweet spot. Hot dresses galore!
