Light, FRESH, tasty and CLEAN. Our Family will DEFINITELY be back here when we're back in Town. The salads look AMAZING by the way..... read more

So yummy!! This charming little cafe is in downtown Covington but they have a Mandeville location as well. I love this location because of the outdoor seating in lovely downtown Covington. They serve a variety of sandwiches, burgers, quesadillas and pasta bowls but I always get one of the salads. The salads are colossal and so delicious. I like the Magazine Salad which has egg, bacon, cheese and chicken salad. They serve it with bleu cheese dressing and it's really great. My favorite, though is the Curried Chicken Salad. Oh my GAWD, y'all. It is so so so good. Chicken, apples, grapes, raisins, walnuts, toasted coconut and curry dressing. It's positivly addictive. In fact, I think they put crack in it. They should change the name of it to Curried Chicken Crack Salad. Yummmm! read more

Coffee Rani is my family's go-to breakfast restaurant on Saturday mornings. Love the staff, love the food, and the coffee is great! My picks are always the BreakFresh Wrap and the Wedding Cake latte with oatmilk. read more

The chicken pesto panini is amazing. They also have a banana Nutella sandwich that my children love.

Oh so good salads! I love going back and trying our different salads. Never disappointed.

Was told this was the spot for healthy. Staff was happy and attentive. Got the mushroom burger. Was happy there was vegan gluten free bread but no vegan Mayo or vegan cheese so that was disappointing so took away from flavor. Not enough vegan gluten free options so they could use more help with this and hope to come back again to see what more is hopefully added. Honestly I also left hungry. More choices puhlleeez! read more

Always a great go to! My favorite dishes are the chicken pesto ceasar salad, southwest salad(specifically for the honey lemon vinaigrette), crawfish monica, crossiant club, or salmon quinoa bowl!! Have been coming here for years and plan to continue to come back to this amazing cafe with their wonderful workers! read more

The best go-to place for fresh salads and sandwiches. The food is fresh and simple, and a wide expanse of options.

Stopped here on a business trip based on a recommendation from my client. The meal was delicious!! Then place is perfect if you're looking for a light meal and nothing deep fried. Great selection of salads too and quick service. Would definitely come back here..... Especially for that potato salad. A sinful indulgence is how I would describe it!!! PS - got a tuxedo brownie to go. :) read more

As a coffee lover, I'm particular about my coffee. The cappuccino with just cinnamon or cocoa powder is perfect here. I'm also very fond of the Pesto Crusted Chicken anything and the Albuquerque Turkey. And the Key West Cooler has been a favorite for years. read more

They have a solid menu that will always please the costumer and entice them to come back for more. It's a chic place to be.

Just spent 15 minutes standing in line to order behind 2 other groups who the order taker and another girl behind the counter had to share videos of a cat shitting in the toilet! read more

A local coffee shop with a great food menu- excellent, relaxing location and really great service! I am so excited to write this review- this place hits a lot of high notes for me. At the end of a frustrating day- I met a friend here... I ordered the salad first- because I'd not eaten since an early breakfast and this was the adult thing to get- the person at the counter- so sweet and so excited about the menu. She came out to the patio to tell me all about her favourites and their specials for next time. And then I saw wedding cake. and wine. and my friend says- today would be the day. Wedding cake is my favourite- I hate a dry cake with overdone frosting- this was not that. perfectly moist and while I can't eat all of that icing- the little I had was great. Salad was the Carribean Jerk Chicken on spinach- w/grapes, blue cheese and almonds (or pecans?) I ex-d the apples and raisins- but those are options. Took the salad to go (and had it for a great late supper)- enjoyed watching the evening traffic on the patio- beautiful space, cozy wicker furniture- to sum it up- all love. read more

We heard great things about this place so wanted to try it. We walked in and stood there for several minutes with no one ever saying hi or asking how they can help. One employee walked by us 3 times & never said a word. I even held the door for her as she was carrying an umbrella outside to set up on one of her trips. Two of the employees were outside setting up umbrellas even though they had been open for an hour already despite the fact that there was a line inside waiting to order. I finally stopped one of the girls to ask how we order. We ended up just leaving. read more

Love the salads! Best Caesar salad around! The other food is great too. I just prefer the salad.

I love this place so much! The Covington/mandeville location are both fantastic! I have tried almost the entire menu and it's so good! The prices are great too for how much food you receive I can always make multiple meals out of them or share! The atmosphere and patios are always clean and so cozy! One of my most favorite spots! read more

We were passing through, and needed a place to stretch our legs/eat lunch. Clearly a favorite of locals, this little spot did not disappoint. Our salads were fresh and filling..... blueberry lemon cheesecake cake was amazing. Would definitely be a regular if we lived here! read more

Absolutely delicious. The hummus was great, the fresh lemonade was great, the soup special was tomato basil which was the best tomato soup I've ever had and the chicken sandwich was fabulous. read more

I've never had a bad meal from here. Their sandwiches are creative and all very tasty! The salads are huge and also chock full of goodies. Sometimes it can be a little slow, but worth the wait read more

If you're in the mood for a huge delicious salad, you have found the right place! Located in a charming old house with a nice patio, this place is a winner! They were extremely busy, but still friendly & fast! The salads are delish & there are 19 to choose from! Lots of flavored ice tea & different coffee drinks, and a huge selection of sandwiches & desserts! Can't wait to go back! read more

Amazing. The food is always fantastic here. They do a "poppy chicken" which was removed from the menu but I asked about it and they were happy to make it again for me. It's THE best thing!! They have all kinds of salads and sandwiches for all types of tastes. Their desert case is mouthwatering. Highly recommend. Oh and with the fall weather here - dine outside - it's magical! read more

Arrived with a party of 6 and we were not greeted upon entry. In fact we were totally ignored until we weren't standing in the correct place and were told to line up along the counter and that was it, no further instruction. We found menu's and decided at that point that we would not be dining there because of the terrible customer service. There were at least 6 people standing behind the counter gossiping. Only 3 people were dining. The place was empty. And the prices were super high. Our party would have spent a couple of hundred dollars in the place which is fine had we been greeted or felt welcome. read more

Love this place went there with my family to celebrate my birthday and the staff were amazing including the owner.food was amazing n we were treated like family,I recommend this place to anyone in Louisiana. read more

Found this cafe on Yelp, as I was staying at a hotel nearby and needed breakfast. They have some nice healthy options. I got the garden veggie omelette with bacon. It was good, but a little on the greasy side. The tea was fabulous- strong and fresh. This place has a nice atmosphere and is located on a cute side street with nice shops to browse after your meal. Seems like a nice to place to meet friends for coffee. read more

Yummy!!!!! Love the veggie tortilla has Caesar salad on the side. Always great and consistent. Catering is also very good.

Coffee Rani was always one of my first stops when I lived away and was back for a trip. It is a great local spot in downtown Covington that caters to a "women who lunch" crowd. The salads are very large portions. My other favorites are the croissant club and the quesadilla. After you order at the counter, you can pick up your silverware and some fresh bread. The bread is amazing and should not be missed. They serve Zoe bakery desserts but you won't need dessert here. The service is always a little lacking, but I'm wiling to overlook that. Lunch time can be a challenge to find a table so go a little early or later to ensure a calmer room. The outdoor area is nice, but let's face it, it is too hot 8 months out of the year to fully enjoy it. It isn't advertised as much but they will do catering sized orders. I've ordered giant trays of both pasta and salad for dinner parties (yes, I'm aware that is cheating). read more

The girl who helped me order this morning with my son and daughter was as calm, cool and kind as anyone can possibly be. So accommodating it was surprising.. Veggie omelette was really good.. more smoothie options would be awesome.. will be back:) read more

Yum! So glad one of my friends told me to go here. We need one in Baton Rouge. You don't have waiter service. You order at the counter. I don't even drink tea, but their tea selection was great. I really enjoyed the key west cooler. Everything looked amazing on the menu. I got the vegetarian quesadillas. They were a little greasy but sooooo good. Can't wait to try some different next time I'm there. It came with a salad. It was okay. My sister got the Reuben. I don't eat those but it looked awesome and she said it was enjoyable. My mom had the chicken pesto sandwich and it was great as well. We wanted to go the stuffed artichoke but they don't carry that anymore. Their patio is really cute! Keep up the good work! read more

Coffee Rani - Vegetarian quesadilla - Cafes Near Me - Covington, Louisiana

I love the coffee drinks (especially the iced coffee) and breakfast food. The muffins are wonderful. That is why I am giving 4 stars. I do not find the lunch and dinner food as tasty, though. The salads sound as if they would be delicious by the menu descriptions, but they are not so good. I am very picky about lettuce. When I have ordered salads here, the lettuce looked old and the pieces were tough. read more

This is a nice small quaint place in small town Covington. It is a quintessential small restaurant to get sandwiches and coffee. The lunches here are great and the menu is surprising robust. Sit outside if the weather permits. read more

Just like the one in Mandeville.. Nicer view with outside seating. Very cool place with great, fresh food!

Ordered today thru WAITR for lunch and had crawfish Monica. Not good. It was a blob of angel hair with sauce that was lacking in quantity and not seasoned anything like jazz fest crawfish (which it is advertised as on their menu). So it basically made for a dry blob mess. Crawfish tastes frozen and metallic-like, just not what I was expecting for the price. The portion was large ( again of pasta not sauce) and it was delivered with plasticware in a styrofoam to go box. Maybe next time I'll order a salad. The pasta was a waste of money. read more
