Great café! Amazing chicken salad and homemade soups. Dessert servings in some places are often too costly but here they are really good, and shareable. I go every time I get a chance. read more

Super disappointed with their take out service. I called to place an order and when I got there my order was not ready even though they weren't busy. In fact, they didn't start making my drink until I got there, which defeats the point of calling ahead of time, right? I wouldn't bother placing an order to go unless you have ALOT of time to wait for it. read more

ive been coming here for years and ill never stop. the caffe freeze is the best frozen coffee ive ever had. they have the best pastries-- the banana nut bread is my favorite read more

Love love love this caffe! I've only been coming here for about 18 years. Pick up a frozen or iced coffee, stop by for late night giant slice of decadent cake or have it all over a long lunch. My favorite menu item is the avocado salad with grilled chicken. The mango dressing they serve with this is just delicious ! Everything is fresh and wonderful. This weekend I picked up a small catered avocado salad with grilled chicken ($55). I had ordered this to feed 14 women. We had plenty left over ( also served this salad as a side and not the main course- but it really does go a long way). It comes beautifully present and they provide disposable salad serving utensils. read more

Caffe Caffe - Clearview - Cafes Near Me - Metairie, Louisiana

Ate there on 7-22-11. This place was recommended by local residents, while I was working in the city. Now my review. With high expectations and a growling stomach. I walked into a really packed Caffe Caffe. This place is very popular. I order the Smoked Turkey Sandwich with honey mustard on the side. The service was okay. The sandwich was okay. That is until I added the honey mustard. This made the sandwich great. This was some of the best honey mustard I've ever had. Top 3 without a doubt. Rich, smooth, creamy and flavorful. Didn't try the desserts I will next time. I will definitely get something to put the honey mustard on again. read more

Inconsistent and overpriced. Sometimes great, today the salad had wilted lettuce. Some days they give you an extra container of dressing, today it would be $1 extra. The Severn location is usually better. Or, for a better choice overall, try La Madeline. read more

Caffe Caffe - Clearview - Okay, I ask for extra cheese because they skip so often.No one said that's another 50 cents. Way to nickel & dime your customer. - Cafes Near Me - Metairie, Louisiana

Always delicious! I love their drinks and their sandwiches. It's a quick, easy meal. I enjoy coming here for a fast breakfast or brunch.

The best sandos and wraps! My favorite is chipotle chicken wrap and I adde avocado and bacon. My husband says the turkey ham club is in the top 5 best sandwiches he's ever had! Desserts are on point too. read more

Years ago, I used to stop in here with a couple of friends every Wednesday night for coffee and a slice or piece of one of their awesome desserts. Many nights, it was hard to decide which sweet pastry I would settle on. I had to limit myself to just one, or eventually I wouldn't fit through the doors. Habits change and its been a while since I was last here. Recently I was in the neighborhood and thought I would stop in for a cup of coffee for old time sake. Oddly enough, the cafe didn't seem changed from the images of my memories. The coffee was alright. There was a decent selection of desserts, enough to tempt almost anyone off a diet. The dessert display did look picked over, so there must of been a lot of temptation earlier in the morning. Good sized crowd for mid-morning; enough people to generate that buzz around the ears from several different groups talking, possibly a shade on the loud side, but not screaming. Parking wasn't bad, but I was here well before the lunch crowd. The cafe was clean; someone is obviously keeping the place up. Service was acceptable. Quick and efficient. read more

Had lunch hre on 10/23/09. I had the the Avocato & Grilled Chicken Salad. It was Awesome. Husband had the Chipote Chicken Wheat Wrap (Daily special). He said it was Good. Skipped the desserts, but they looked awesome; quite a collection of fresh cakes and pastries. Will return again. read more

Very disappointed in that the Saturday morning breakfast platter was of warmed up eggs and sausage plus biscuits. Only the grits were hot but very creamy with little taste. All utensils were throwaways - plate, coffee cup, bowl, fork and spoon. Eatery was just a fast food place with tables and chairs. Would not recommend to anyone. read more

Caffe Caffe! is delicious delicious. I never had a bad meal or coffee/pastry here. My favorite soup is the chicken andouille. Paired with the quiche is a winning duo. The Clearview location just began serving breakfast, which is also great. read more

Today, a family friend treated me to lunch at Cafe Cafe, and it was an excellent experience. I've actually been here a few times before over the past ten years, and I can't say that I've ever had a bad experience. The breakfasts are hot and fresh, and the salads for lunch are pretty and tasty. Today, I had the Roquefort salad with blue cheese, tomatoes, eggs, bacon, and a vinaigrette. Each ingredient was laid out in colorful, contasting rows over a generous portion of romaine lettuce. I LOVE roquefort, and all of the ingredients in the salad complimented the taste of the cheese. I also like that they offer an herbal iced tea since I don't drink caffeinated beverages. The herbal tea for today was berry flavored. It was refreshing, but not overly fruity. I was really happy to see that it came unsweetened. Sandwitches and soups are also offered for lunch, along with a few wraps for those who want a lower carb meal. The service is always really friendly and efficient, and the interior is bright, clean, and welcoming. The creamy yellow walls are nicely illuminated by ample windows on all sides of the cafe. When you walk in, there is a long bar where you can order to go or to dine in. Since servers do not really wait on tables, the staff is really focused and making sure you get your delicious meal as quickly as possible, along with drinks and pastries. Speaking of pastries, the creme brulee here is an absolute must have if you are looking for a little personal indulgence that won't make you feel overly full after your lunch. As for location, it's conveniently located a few blocks from Roberts market, and it isn't far from Veterans and Clearview Mall. If you ever want to catch a matinee, this is a great place for lunch before or afterward. There are also two drug stores and a gardening center within a block. This is why Cafe Cafe is always packed! Great location, food, ambiance, and service. read more

We try to check out a different breakfast spot at least twice a month. This was on my list so off we went. The place is hopping on a Sunday morning it was moving and grooving people coming in all the time. You order at the counter and that is where the menus are so it was a bit tricky to excuse yourself 10 times to reach a menu on the counter. I think next time I will look at menu online first. That said the scrambled eggs were AMAZING !!! Best I have had ! We also bought a piece of German chocolate cake a piece of angel food cake and a apple fritter. The pieces are large. The angel good cake was fabulous! Just the right texture ...if I hadn't finished it I would have brought it home and put berries on it. Be aware that the large coffees are very large a small for me next time. I will be back for those delish scrambled eggs. read more

Let me preface this by saying I absolutely love the salads and desserts from Caffe Caffe! However, today I ordered lunch for me and my husband. And, not being a salad lover, my husband ordered the ham and turkey club sandwich which is $9.45. Well, what he got was not a $9.45 sandwich! It was no more than an inch thick, with only 2 slices of bread instead of the traditional 3 slices. Come on Caffe Caffe! You can do better than that! read more

Caffe Caffe - Clearview - Scrambled eggs & choice of bacon or sausage patty - Cafes Near Me - Metairie, Louisiana

Stopped here because I wanted some healthy options for lunch. I ended up choosing the Caesar salad and chicken salad sandwich. The salad was the best salad I have had eating out in a while. The chicken salad was good too. I was there on a Saturday, late morning so it very busy. You stand in line to order your food then have a seat. I think it took less than 15 min for our food to be prepared once we ordered which is not bad. I noticed they have a lot of baked pastries and such. I made a note to return on my diet cheat day because I def would like to try some. Customer service there is ok. read more

Caffe Caffe - Clearview - Cafes Near Me - Metairie, Louisiana

Have been eating here for 5 years but the rent must have gone up on them because they wanted to charge me extra to put condensed milk in my Vietnamese coffee. Which tasted like plain iced coffee. Their tuna salad isn't as good as it used to be, and it is probably due to cheaper ingredients. Toasted sandwich taste more like stale bread. The prime tome was probably 3 years ago, and it's sad to see it be just another cafe with food and cake. read more

I can with certainty say that I am addicted to this place! I get the same thing every time and love it even more each visit. You cannot miss with their soups! Every day they have 2 soup selections and one is better than the next! A few favorites are theBrazilian Shrimp, spinach and Artichoke, Split Pea, shrimp and corn, and chili! Then I get a 1/2 sandwich! My pick is the caffe club with ham! Then......close your eyes and grab anything off of the pasty counter or the case! You will not be disappointed! I love the Choc-o-lot cake slice! You can call to hear the soup selections and sandwich specials, and to hear hours as dinner is only available till 8pm! If you really like your bread toasted, just ask them to toast it dark! Average is about $15/person for lunch or dinner. read more

I have been a loyal customer as I live in the neighborhood but today the food and service was really poor. The sandwich had almost no turkey on it and the soup was just heavy cream, no shrimp or coconut flavor as it says it is. I went to the cashier and told her about this and her response was "sorry I can't take it back once you tried it". Unbelievable for a place where customer service and food has been great before. I will certainly hesitate to return here and will prefer to try other lunch places. read more

Today, I stopped to get my cappuccino and almond croissant before my doctor's appointment. The cappuccino and croissant makes the doctor's appointment better. Unfortunately, the croissant was not there so I had to get something else. They will have croissants after the 12th. So I decided to get a blueberry muffin. The muffin was fabulous. It was the best muffin I had from a cafe. It was not dry. It was perfect. My cappuccino was good as usual. The coffee tasted very good. The staff was friendly and nice. read more

I tried the avocado salad with added chicken. Very good! It could have used a bit more chicken, but it was absolutely delicious! Ordering was quick and service was prompt. Recommended and I will be back. read more

Please help yourself to the Avocado Salad! It is Amazing and I add Tuna Salad to it to make it even better. The mango dressing is the best!!

I used to live just down the street, but now I moved to Westbank. Whenever I am in Metairie, I try to stop by this place for their delicious cakes. The Almond wedding cake is my favorite. I love that they sell fresh orange juice and that they offer a large selection of assorted food, desserts, coffees and tea. Their staff always makes you feel welcomed and happily answers all your questions in a nice way. read more

This is one of my favorite places to get a slice of cake in the city. On my most recent trip I bought a rum cake ($25) for a coworker and it was delicious. Everyone was actually ranting and raving how great the flavor was. The lady on the phone said it would only serve 8 of us, but it easily fed all 11 of us. The only thing that would have made the rum cake better is if I picked up a gallon of Ice cream. My other favorite things to get here is the caffe freeze and the mile high cake. I've been coming here ever since elementary school so this is a great staple in Metairie. read more

More like a 3.5. Driving around Metairie and I stumble across Caffe Caffe. I wanted a nice coffee and a tasty brunch after a stressful day. So I ordered the Avocado & Grilled Chicken Salad with a slice of the Billionaire's Cake. For the good, I will definitely say the meals. Their salads seem to be the best thing in everyone's opinion and I agree. The fresh avocado, with nice greens, and slices of chicken were yummy. The mango dressing was also very delicious. It was like a mini fruit puree that I could sip all by itself. For the cake, I did not really know what to expect before buying it. Basically a chocolaty mix that was alright. The only thing that really annoyed me when coming here was the service. It seems to be run by a bunch of highschoolers taking orders and twirling their hair with their fingers. They probably have no culinary sense and no credible opinions on the menu. After I ordered I waited for about 5 minutes for my food. I see somebody place two to-go boxes at the pickup line. I stare at it waiting for my name or number to be called. Nothing...5 minutes later my patience has gone and I walk up to the counter. The girl behind it stares at me and says nothing. I give her some time to think, but nope she still ignores me. So i say "Is this my food" and she says yes. Well thanks for letting me know 15 minutes later that my food was ready instead of making me wait like an idiot. This really frustrated me as you can see by my rant. At least the taste satisfied me enough. read more

This is a really cute cafe that serves baked goods, coffee and lunch. I have driven by Caffe Caffe several times and never would have imagined such a cute place inside. They had a lot of baked goods to chose from, coffee drinks (to drink there or to go) and they played great music in the back ground. I got the iced lemon pound cake (HUGE SLICE!!) and my husband for the blueberry muffin- he says it resides in the top 3 of the city so far but I have been more impressed with others around the city. Also a PLUS: they have almond milk! Just a note: This is NOT a place for those studying or taking up table space for hours. This is frowned upon and stated on the door. read more

This is your basic coffee cafe with desserts, salads and sandwiches that could be in Anytown, U.S.A. They have some pretty good cheese cake and the iced tea and coffee are decent. This just wasn't a place that appealed to me very much, it just wasn't my type of place, as I don't really like coffee shops to begin with but they can serve as good work spots but I can't see getting much work done here. This place would probably be at least three stars to most other people but it just isn't my cup of tea and expensive for what you get. read more

We have driven by often, and I have always been curious about this place. Our friends suggested it, so we took them up on it. We stopped in for dessert. They have a very large display case full of many cakes and pies to choose from. The cakes are huge! We split a piece of the Pumpkin Cheesecake and the Apple Praline Pie. Both were excellent. We noticed a lot of people coming in for holiday desserts that they had ordered for Christmas. Bustling place! They offer lunch items like salads and wraps too. It all looked yummy. Nice place! We will definitely be back. read more

Pretty solid club sandwich. Not terribly long wait during lunch rush. Should offer a side to go with sandwiches. Seems a little less than what the prices are but solid flavor. read more

One of the female cashiers here is a true hustler, and should move on up to Larry Flynt's Hustler Club, where I am sure she would do very well. I ordered grits topped with eggs, bacon and cheese, and an orange juice. Total was $8.30. I gave her a $10 bill and she cheerfully dismissed me with, "Ten dollars. No change. Thank you!" She did not even ask me if I wanted my change back, she TOLD me "no change" as if she was entitled to it. She took my order at the counter, did not take it table-side nor did she deliver food. She even failed to give me a receipt, so I had no idea what my number was when it was time to pick up my food. The food was average. It was hot but was pretty bland. The place was crowded, seats too close together. My companions on either side of me kept knocking into me, and the man directly behind me had his chair pushed up against the back of mine. I felt very claustrophobic. Not a fan. read more

This place has been here for ages. I've passed by many times. Why not try out. Let me start off by saying that what this place has going is its location and relatively large space for a coffee shop. Even though its big it doesn't feel like a cafeteria. I'm not going to say it's dirty, but when I came in there were tables that needed some cleaning. It was Saturday morning rush and there were clean tables available. I ordered the egg white spinach wrap, a bagel and a side of sausage patties. My conclusion regarding the food is that they don't emphasize on quality or culinary expertise. The sausage patties weren't the best and definitely frozen. The spinach tortilla wasn't heated, just pulled out the bag onto the dish. The bagel was fine except that the cream cheese for which I was charged was one of those little to-go packets.(very "fast-foody") Not to mention that I had to pickup my breakfast at the counter rather than it being brought to my table like they do at Chateaux Cafe. I feel like this establishment can use a revitalization. In Orleans parish, it couldn't survive on its borderline mediocrity. I'm saying its bad, just not good. But you couldn't ask for a better location with ample parking. Would I comeback? On purpose, probably not. By chance, maybe. I gave it 3 stars, but deserved 2.5. read more

Caffe Caffe - Clearview - Cafes Near Me - Metairie, Louisiana

This is a place that I come back to again and again. I actually drive OUT of New Orleans to come here :) Great coffee that they roast themselves and every dessert I've ever had here rocked my world. It's a great place to meet a friend for coffee. I hear their lunches are really good too... I've just never gotten past the desserts. I'd eat two just to make it enough for lunch. The grooms cake is a milk chocolate cake that my five year old devoured. She loves chocolate but this was extraordinary. She said so herself. She preferred it over my darker chocolate cake. The cheesecake is really good too. Aw heck. It's all freakin' good. Just come here. I can see this place being a great place to meet someone for a blind date aka internet date! It's in the public eye, you won't be disappointed by the food, and there's enough light and background noise to not feel dumb if conversation dwindles. read more

I used to work for Caffe! Caffe! over 10 years ago on the northshore and I STILL salivate when I think of their Freeze Floats, Chicken Salad Sandwich and fresh desserts (Strawberry Shortcake omg omg omg). The food is fresh, incredible and DELICIOUS. Highly recommended! read more

It's a Sunday, it's a cafe and they are open -- yum breakfast! Not. Not only do they not do breakfast at all, the kitchen is not open on Sundays. Just pastries, muffins and drinks. All was not a fail however; based on a recommendation from a co-worker, I ordered a slice of coconut cream pie to go. Ate it later that night and I kid you not -- it was the BEST coconut cream pie I've ever had. It had true coconut flavor as opposed to artificial coconut flavoring and the pie crust..........I've never noticed a pie crust before, but this pie crust not only served a purpose, it tasted great! read more

Love the salads. Coffee ok. Typical cafe atmosphere. But it does seem to be a little on the loud side, maybe all the Metairie Yats in there! LOL Parking is ALWAYS a problem if you go for standard lunchtime hours. Usually very busy so can be a wait time and have been late getting back to the office for lunch in years past. So make sure you have the time to spare, or are self employed! But staff usually nice, and have never had a problem with an order. read more

This place is always busy, so I try to stay away during lunch time. The food is great, yet a little over priced, and the service is quick. I tend to get the same thing when I come here. The chicken croissant add avocado. Its a thick grilled chicken breast on top of a croissant with sweet peas, avocado, and a honey mustard dressing served with chips. They tend to go heavy on the sauce, so if you don't want it dripping down your arm make sure to ask for light sauce. read more

God how much I love this place! I spend way too much money at both locations but I honestly prefer this one over the North Hullen one. I think they put more love in their stuff and they usually have a better dessert variety. I always get a salad here. I've had other things (their soups, sandwiches and quiches.) All are good but I prefer their BIG salads with those fresh ingredients and addictive dressing. I always get the avocado salad with grilled chicken. They never have any problems with substitutions (I can't stand gorgonzola cheese and always replace it with feta.) Their mango vinaigrette is one of my favorite dressings in the world. It is so good on anything it touches. Sometimes, I'll go crazy and get their chicken salad salad. I love their chicken salad, and when I was going through a chicken salad phase, this place sustained me for a few weeks. I like it with their homemade honey balsamic. You honestly can't go wrong here. Their desserts are amazing too. I love all their cakes, pies and cookies. I've seriously never had a bad experience here. The only drawbacks are how cheap the owners are. They have never donated anything to any organization I know of. As a small business with three locations in Jefferson Parish, I wish they were more willing to give back to the community. Conversely, I'm amazed sometimes by how expensive everything is. I've easily spent $20 for lunch (drink, salad and dessert.) Lunch shouldn't cost me $20 for me to enjoy good quality food. But I guess that's the price we all have to pay now. *sigh* read more

Local favorite! I normally order the Classic Chicken Sandwich with aioli topped with crunchy shredded cabbage & bread n' butter pickles; and the avocado salad with mango vinaigrette and add carved chicken. I love how the chicken isn't just shredded or cubed, it's craved! They also make the best desserts. The cookies are as big as my hand. The salad was about $15 with the chicken added, a bit pricey. You can sit outside like we did if the weather is nice. Overall, I would come back.. the sandwich was pretty bomb. read more

My SO and I went here tonight for dessert: wedding cake and lemon ice box pie. Mouth-watering sugary sweetness. Both desserts were perfection! I think we ate them way to quickly. Sugar rush. I had the pleasure of seeing a few of their regular employees - Tristan is always very cordial. They are known for their salads, and their Caesar is my favorite. It's a good size and they have an amazing dressing. My favorite soup is the tomato; their soup breads are the best I've ever had! My only complaint is that I can't go here as often as I previously could. Unfortunately, I go to work before they open, and I don't usually get back to Metairie until after they are closed. So very sad. :( Thank you for always having consistently great drinks, food, dessert and employees!! read more
