Brennan's, Restaurant building in French Quarter, New Orleans, US.

Brennan's occupies a three-story pink building at 417 Royal Street, constructed in 1795 for Don José Faurie. Its flat roofline sits above three round windows set in square recesses, flanked by shuttered windows; a black metal balcony with a railing runs across the middle level, where three tall shuttered windows open behind it. The lower level holds a dark doorway, framed windows and a central panelled double door, with signs reading "Brennan's" and "PARKING".

The mansion at 417 Royal Street was built in 1795 for Don José Faurie and later housed the Banque de la Louisiane, Louisiana's first bank. From 1841 to 1891 it belonged to the Morphy family; chess champion Paul Morphy lived there until his death in 1884. Owen Brennan leased the building in 1954, moved his restaurant here in 1956, and the business bought it in 1984.

Bananas Foster was created at Owen Brennan's earlier Bourbon Street restaurant and remains the dish most associated with the house. Owen Brennan also founded the Krewe of Bacchus in 1949, holding its first balls in 1949 and 1950, because Carnival balls were then closed to tourists; the Krewe's first Mardi Gras parade rolled on February 16, 1969.

Brennan's occupies the 1795 mansion at 417 Royal Street, in the block of the French Quarter spared by the 2005 levee flooding. The pink facade with its iron balcony faces Royal Street, and a sign near the street marks parking. Visitors reach the door on foot from Jackson Square and the surrounding Quarter streets.
