The food was good, but $14 for 2 eggs, 2 bacon a biscuit and small grits is a bit over priced. $21 with coffee. I could have ordered 2 eggs ($4) Bacon ($4) grits ($?) *$4 for a biscuit is pretty high. Don't plan coming back read more

5 stars all around from service to host and food. Surprised it took me so long to visit, but it definitely was everything I could imagine and more. Visited on a Sunday afternoon around 3, perfect time to go and wasn't crowded at all. Party of 6, seated right away. Breakfast/Brunch is served all day. So opted in for the Acadian Benedict. Shrimp and fish were fired to perfection and the egg was runny. read more

Food is and always has been great here. Unfortunately the prices have almost doubled the past year making it more of a special occasion visit. Spending $100 on breakfast for a family of 4 isn't something we can do often. read more

It's hard to go wrong with food in Louisiana, and this place is no exception. Food was very tasty and plentiful! Lot of great eggs Benedict options (which is my favorite breakfast/ brunch item). There are also any omelet choices as well. And all the breakfast options are available all day!!!!! I'll definitely will be back read more

The food was very good and the restaurant is cute. Perfect place for brunch. Service was okay.

The food was great. My daughter had the chocolate waffle and i had the chicken wrap which were tasty. The service was great. Very clean. My only negative is they have an app but I always forget to get them to scan the app before I pay. Once you pay, there is not way to credit your account. Please add a scan receipt feature or something to be able to get credit for your purchase. read more

The Beignets were fabulous, we shared the order. Met with friends for brunch, great choices for breakfast and lunch items! The outside seating was full, so we are inside, it was very nice but busy! Get there early to avoid crowds read more

Great breakfast on Mardi Gras morning. Our server was great; cold & composed despite the chaos. The place is clean and comfortable! read more

Best breakfast in Covington! We got the biscuits and gravy and the blueberry muffin, both to die for! For our meals we each got an omelette and they were a great portion and tasted amazing-- they made mine all egg white which I really appreciated! We always visit this place when in Covington! read more

Great breakfast-brunch restaurant with many options to satisfy even the most particular individuals. There are three locations the ones in Covington and Abita have more menu items and the third in Madisonville (it was actually the second location I believe) that has less menu items but over looks the river. In any event this is definitely a good breakfast place. read more

Abita RCC- just wanted to let you know that Jamie did an awesome job of making sure our catering order was confirmed, prepared correctly, and delivered on time. And as always, the food was delicious. The entire staff did a great job and are all absolutely awesome...!!! Mike (SmallFest-2023) read more

This place blew my mind! I've had a lot of crab and corn soup/bisque but their's knocked it out the park. The southwest Cobb salad was spicy yet well balanced and portioned HUGELY. Hazelnut iced latte was strong and creamy. Honestly everything I ordered was just on point. There was only one server running around the whole floor but he was attentive and very friendly. read more

Visited here after a trip to the northshore! The coffee shop is huge and beautiful! I was able to get two cups of coffee pretty quickly. They have indoor and outdoor dining and their food menu looks pretty delicious. read more

There was a black hair, 2-3 inches long, in my flavorless bacon and cheese omelette, with hash browns. The biscuit was dry as well. They do give you plenty of food. Whoever has black hair and cooks here, they need a hairnet. Great service. I should have gone to Fat Spoon or Cracker Barrel. read more

Excellent food and service!! Highly recommend! First time here but will definitely be back! read more

The food is ok.. I feel like breakfast is a much better choice than trying them for lunch or dinner. The service though is terrible. Each and every time we come in there is hardly anyone dining in and the service is terrible. this has been a consistent problem for years now. we have most certainly made our last trip there. read more

My husband and I have been coming here consistently for 3 years since we moved to the North shore. Love their environment (beautiful outdoor patio with seating) and menu options. They are busy at peak periods just like every other joint in the area, which is understandable. The staff is always hard working and friendly, no matter who we get. Overall an enjoyable experience every time. Only two small things to improve in my opinion: their espresso beverages can be inconsistent depending on who makes it, and I also wish there were an adult chicken tender meal for my childish husband. I believe you can order it off menu but it comes out to $15, which isn't worth it for the portion size you get. read more

The food was okay. COVID precautions were lacking to say the least. The employees wore masks but the clean up after guests left was Very minimal. The dishes were removed and the table wiped off with a DRY cloth. The tables were not even wiped down with any type of sanitizer between guests. I watched this on 3 different tables. Oh, a waitress took a syrup off an unsanitized table and put it down on table of guests next to it. Come on people! read more

The food here is delicious! I've been coming here literally since the day they opened, and even with the hiatus of me moving to Jersey, the food has remained perfection! The menu is large and varied. There is truly something here for everyone! From the breakfast menu thru brunch & dinner, the flavors and excitement will have you wanting it all! I've tried almost everything here, and I have never been disappointed. Not once! Today we had the Cinnamon French Toast Crunch, the breakfast sandwich meal, the fried green tomatoes, Coffee, and the grand marnier mimosa. Yes must tell you all of it was good, but the Cinnamon Toast Crunch, and the fried green tomatoes were AMAZING!! When I tell you amazing, I mean AMAZING!! I could eat this everyday!! You can't go wrong here, trust me!! From the burgers, to the unique offerings here, it would take you months to try it all and figure out your favorites. Our server Austin was GREAT, and everyone here is always helpful and friendly. The only issue I have is that they are seating at full capacity and have no Covid spacing. They do have several outside tables available, and that helps. We sat outside on a beautiful day so it was a Win-Win! read more

The restaurant was about a third full inside and outside. Hostesses seemed confused about available seating space and were bringing folks to dirty tables. Awkward. We were seated with menus we wiped our wet table with napkins and a waiter approached for our drink order. Drinks came out we ordered lunch. Oh, the drinks were definitely once and done, we never saw him again. Food was good, the kitchen made up for the front staff. That is why I gave three stars. Runners from the kitchen had no idea who ordered what. But the food was hot and prepared correctly. We had to ask someone cleaning for our bill. read more

Favorite brunch on the Northshore! Today's Labor Day after hurricane Ida and we needed good meal that wasn't to go. We thoroughly enjoyed our meals and we want to come back tomorrow for coffee and pastries. Our waitress was amazing and kind and brought us fresh smoothies. Everything is fresh and delicious! read more

They mess up our order EVERY TIME we're in town so we decided to eat in this time we visited. The food is good but the service is TRASH. 30 minutes in, its not busy and we're STILL WAITING for a server. Couples coming in after us have been serviced but our group of 4 Black patrons are STILL WAITING!?!? UNACCEPTABLE. read more

This location of ARC is a great addition to the chain. It may not have the view that the Madisonville location has, but the food here is downright awesome. I stumbled upon this location one eafternoon when the restaurant I intended to try was unexpectedly closed. Knowing how much I love the other two locations, my oldest and I parked and went in. The restaurant is located in the older section of Covington, but the building appeared brand new. There was ample parking, outdoor seating and lots of space. The building is divided into two different sections. The first is a typical coffee shop, but the second is a full service restaurant. I've been three times and the food has always been excellent. Often a restaurant that serves both breakfast and lunch succeeds at one type of food and fails at the other. ARC does a great job with both. The burgers that I have tried had hand formed patties, were cooked perfectly and could be ranked among the best in St. Tammany. The breakfast omelettes are large, but have a great filling to egg ratio that is very important when making a great omelet. My one gripe is that the service is not consistent. On my first visit my server was phenomenal, the second visit was downright bad and the third was friendly, but left us somewhat abandoned. Considering that I had the same server on the first and third visit, I guess she was just having a bad day, but these inconsistencies are what prevents me from giving the full five stars. If you are looking for a great breakfast or lunch spot, look no further than this location of the Abita Roasting Company. read more

This place was packed on a Sunday morning, which I expected. However, there were still lots of open tables, so I think the staff just can't keep up with the restaurant at full capacity. We didn't mind waiting, although the hostess was really unfriendly, not welcoming, and did not seem to know what she was doing. When we were finally seated, the hostess took drink orders. Some of the drinks eventually showed up. A waitress came around eventually and fixed the drink orders that never showed up. The coffee was good, which I expected it to be from a place that roasts their own! Nothing amazing though. As for the food, I did enjoy my crepes and side "breakfast salad" which I think is a cool brunch idea. The service was really lacking. Nothing friendly, super long waits, and seemingly no reason for it as the crowd began to thin. They could definitely do better. They could also start by making the menu smaller. There are just so many options - and it's not necessary. Streamline that menu and I think service would improve. The atmosphere is also not great. Plasticy-material chairs that are industrial looking wasn't what I was expecting. The old cottage atmosphere of the Madisonville location is much more welcoming. Overall, the food was good enough but it's nothing to rave about. I look forward to trying the Madisonville location again when it becomes a full restaurant. read more

Stopped for a coffee and let me tell you it was so good I had to buy some food, and that was great too. Service was excellent in these trying times and I'll definitely be back again. read more

Whenever we cruise through we always make a point to stop here. Wish they would franchise; it's THAT good.

Poorly operated, mass confusion. Not enough staff, the staff complains about not having enough help. There doesn't seem to be anyone in charge that is making sure the restaurant is running properly. I have been to this place several times but things have started to go down hill. It's a shame too because the food is good but if you're a restaurant and can't turn table you aren't going to be successful. read more

We went for the first time today. The waiter greeted us immediately and let us choose our seat outside. I had a mushroom burger. I've had a lot of burgers but this was by FAR the best I've ever tasted! My daughter got the Cali panini and absolutely loved it! Hubby got the club sandwich and said it was good. We will absolutely be back anytime we want an amazing burger or panini. We can't wait to try other menu items as well. read more

I'd recommend trying this restaurant out. It's not simply a coffee shop! We were crazy to try this place at 11:15 on a Sunday, but we will definitely be back. There was a half hour wait for a table and it was packed. The coolest part about this place is there is a coffee bar right when you walk in. They have baked goodies and hot or iced coffee, as well as smoothies and tea drinks, so I was able to get a cafe au lait to warm up from the rain as we waited for a table. Be forewarned that there is no place to sit inside as you wait, but you're given a buzzer so on a nice day you could probably snag one of the tables or chairs outside. Our server was super sweet and efficient. My husband got the chicken caesar wrap and I got the blueberry thrill crepe with carrot soufflé as my side (which was worth the trip alone). Initially my crepe didn't come with the basil chiffonade but when our server came back to check on us after the runner brought the food, she quickly rectified this by bringing me a cup of basil not a minute later. It was good that they hadn't simply run out because the basil made this dish! The herbal flavor really helped cut the otherwise overwhelming sweetness. Next time I'll try the Capricorn savory crepe. read more

I highly recommend this place. In my opinion, it is the best local sit-down breakfast place in Covington. Waiter-I'm not sure what his name was, but he was very cheerful the whole time with my party of 18 hungry people. Food- everything was priced well and scrumptious. I highly recommend their chicken and waffles or their New Orleans style French toast. Both were amazing. Not a crumb was left of either. Service and cleanliness- the service was quick and the bathrooms, dishes, and tables were super clean. Although there were many people, I felt like there were very few with the layout of the restaurant. Pictured below is their New Orleans style French Toast (photo credit Garrett Cooper) read more
