Love this cute spot! Delicious salads, sandwiches and coffee! Not to mention they do a great Crawfish Monica!

Great place for afternoon lunch! My friend and I came here to meet for lunch, and they were packed. I soon saw why. They do an incredible job. They have a variety of fresh pastries baked in house, salads, sandwiches, soups, wraps, and specials. The staff were all really friendly, and they took great care of us. I ordered the Reuben, and my friend ordered the chicken caesar salad. Our food came out pretty promptly, and it was hot and fresh. The Rueben was served on grilled rye and was so tasty. Also loved the potato salad and the homemade chips that came with it. I will go back here next time I'm on the North shore around lunchtime. 5 out of 5 stars quickly. Cheers! read more

Coffee Rani is one of my favorite places to go to when I'm home visiting my parents. The crawfish Monica and club sandwich are my top favorites, and their soups are always wonderful. I also love their desserts, though rich, and that they're usually from Zoe's Bakery. If you get in between 11:30-1, it'll be swamped - otherwise, come around 11 for lunch. The dinner menu is the same, and the food is just as good. Everything is reasonably priced, and the parking at this location is way better than the Covington one. read more

Excellent food and service in a great atmosphere. Save room for desert! I would recommend the salads and the sandwiches!

My sisters and I went here around Christmas time to order their delicious cakes. We were having such a great time that I didn't even realize I left my phone there. Upon arriving home I then noticed my phone was missing. My stomach dropped since it was going to cost over a thousand dollars to replace and I was visiting from AZ so it was going to be a huge inconvenience. I had zero hopes of ever finding it. My quick minded sister called coffee Rani just to check and to our pleasant surprise, they informed us that it was in fact still on the table. We sat in the back corner of the restaurant so it wasn't noticeable to passersby. I'm grateful for the honesty of the staff members at this restaurant, they restored hope in me that day. I've always been a fan of theirs when I lived in New Orleans and will always be. I can't wait to come back and visit again to enjoy my favorite, the carrot cake. read more

Not bad. A very unique menu with lots of options. Sandwich was fine. Nothing to blow my skirt up over.

Order anything on the menu it's all good Especially the salads... leave room for dessert or take it to go ... incredible... staff is Terrific! read more

Coffee Rani still reigns supreme as the premiere lunch spot for Mandeville moms. The menu has expanded and their interiors have gotten a glow up, but the classics are still there. Despite the crowd we were able to easily get a table while we waited for our food. I ordered the chicken paillard salad which came a crispy, fried breast, copious amounts of greens, parmesan cheese, and a lemony dressing. It was more than enough food to take home for another serving. After lunch, we went back in line to grab one of their fudge brownies from the dessert case. It's easy to see why this place continues to be popular after all these years. read more

My mother and I went there for breakfast and it was both our first times dining in. My mom was so happy with the service overall she had to tell a manager as well as insisted we write a review (her first ever review! That's how great it was!) I ordered a vanilla iced coffee and a summer fruit salad and my mom ordered a regular coffee with steamed milk and the big egg sandwich (she took out the green onions and Mayo and added spinach tho). We both ate every single bite and could not stop complimenting how completely delicious it all was. It was truly a wonderful breakfast! On top of all of it, the service was great. The woman who took our order at the front was helpful in suggesting delicious options and was very nice and re-filled my mom's coffee a couple times with a smile. We ordered some pastries to go too! We can't wait to come back! Highly recommend all of it! The experience, the food, the drinks and the pastries. Overall, a fantastic place to go for breakfast/brunch and really enjoy yourselves. Thank you coffee rani! read more

Very upset because I love this restaurant. Went for dinner and got a strawberry lemonade to drink. A few sips in, a finger nail showed up in my drink. Told a staff member and all that was done was removing the almost full lemonade from the table. Bad experience for sure. read more

My wife and I love dining at the Coffee Rani location in Mandeville so we thought we would try the location in downtown Covington and boy, were we disappointed! The staff were friendly and the food was good, although could have been warmer when it got to our table. What really through us off was being told that we have to go grab our utensils, napkins and condiments ourselves, which really dampened the experience that we look for when dining out. I could barely hold all of the supplies we needed in both hands, with staff standing around talking amongst themselves... not offering to help. Definitely will not be returning. The Mandeville location is full service, so we'll stick to that one. read more

Always wonderful tasty fresh great tasting Everything. Love the cranberry turkey croissant.

I'm typically not a fan of heated sandwiches, but this little place has changed my mind completely! I had a vegetarian Mediterranean sandwich with hummus, pesto, red peppers, etc. and it was delicious. Honestly, it might be the best sandwich I've ever had. The woman that took my friend and I's order was very kind and helpful, and the establishment was incredibly clean and organized. I highly recommend this place! read more

On a hot summer (or spring or fall...heck even winter for that matter) in southeast Louisiana one of my favorite places to eat is Coffee Rani. When it's hot as Hades out and you can fry an egg on the sidewalk there's not much that can beat one of their crisp and cool salads. My personal favorite is the Curried Chicken which is baked chicken, apples, grapes, raisins, walnuts over a bed of fresh greens with curry salad dressing. Yum! Ask for extra dressing...trust me. Order a fresh squeezed lemonade. So fresh I watched them squeeze the lemons myself. That was so good I went back for another to go. It's counter ordering and they give you one of those table number things to know where to bring your food. You also have to get your own silverware, bread, butter etc. at convienently located stations placed around the resturant. If you're in Mandeville you can't go wrong with Coffee Rani. Try it! read more

Coffee Rani is one of my favorite go-to spots in Mandeville. Everyone can always find something they want on the menu. One of my personal favorite is the curried chicken salad, and the caprese grilled cheese is amazing. They also have wonderful specials to check out so there is always something new to try. The brunch is fantastic as well, I enjoyed the avocado toast immensely. I always make sure to save room for dessert too because they have a wonderful selection of cakes, pastries, and baked good. The restaurant has a nice airy vibe and is a great place to grab a quick bite or meet up with friends to hang out. I will certainly be back here soon! read more

Absolutely amazing as always!! Such fresh and healthy ingredients. I find every meal I've tried very balancing in flavors and texture.

Food is alway amazing! Great area for any event. Every plate is delicious and service is great! read more

Located in the Pontchartrain Square Shopping center, Coffee Rani has good food at reasonable prices. I always thought it was only a coffee shop, but was pleased to learn it has an extensive menu. After trying it last week, I enjoyed it so much that I came back the next day and several more times since. On my first visit, I dined in. I was not a fan of the way the dining area was set up. While there were some booths, many of the tables were set very close together. I dislike restaurants that do that because it makes having private conversations difficult. Some of the tables also were right next to the area where people ordered or waited in line. Sitting there when there was a line would be a tad awkward. Despite my issues with the dining area, the food has always been very good. The salads are the best I've had on the Northshore. Portions are large enough for a meal, and the ingredients have always been fresh and of high quality. On my first visit, I stayed in my comfort zone and ordered a club salad. On later visits, I decided to trust their salad making expertise and I ordered the Jamacian Jerk salad. Who would have ever imagined a chicken salad with olives, grapes and apples could be so good? I sure didn't, but it was great. I guess the point that I am trying to make is that, the food here is very good. Even if you aren't sure about the listed ingredients, trust that they know what they're doing. In closing, go to Coffee Rani and you'll enjoy it. Order to-go, and you'll enjoy it even more. read more

I went for brunch it was great. Staff was very friendly. I was in decisive about breakfast options. The grits were to perfection. Restaurant was clean, they are practicing social distancing with a few tables which are closed to sit. It's a casual restaurant downtown Covington. read more

Always good, haven't had anything here I didn't like. Usually fast service. Order at the counter and they bring it out to you. The staff is always super nice and welcoming. Some favorites are the hummus, croissant club, sunrise quesadilla, panko redfish, fig/apple/goat cheese sandwich with turkey, Cobb salad. read more

LOVEEE coffee rani!!!! The BEST pastries and the best pasta and SALADDDS (even if you think you're not a "salad" person, their salads are my FAVE!!) and their sandwiches are great too!!! Just everything is amazing!!! Also their frappaccinos are better than Starbucks in my opinion..... read more

The food is delicious and the place is always packed! I just don't understand why they don't change the service setup from counter service to having a waitstaff. The line is always so long, there's no circulation space and it takes a long time just to put your order in. The number of people they have running food would suffice for waitstaff and they could make more money. It could be a lot more efficient. Either way... great food and always consistent. read more

This used to be a great place for lunch. I had a chicken salad sandwich on a croissant. The lettuce and tomatoes were so bad that I had to remove them which left about a teaspoon of chicken salad on the croissant. It was un edible. I've eaten here for years. Things sure have changed. read more

Likely will not return. Customer service was lacking and rude. Coffee was mediocre and environment was stale. Would probably give it another try if everyone didn't look so miserable but the initial tone that was set negatively impacted the entire experience unfortunately. read more

So yummy! My go to salad is the Asian chicken salad! It's amazing!! You can order carry out or dine in and they'll have your food ready for you quickly! read more

This is my go to breakfast and lunch spot! First, I love their iced coffee. I get it with no sweetener and just a splash of cream. It's so smooth, but still robust. I've like all their sandwiches and also their Crawfish Monica pasta. But the standout item that I always order is the Rosa Salad with Chicken. I'm not sure if it's a regular item, because I don't see it on the menu. But it's on a little plaque by the register and on a chalk board. This salad is outstanding. It already has a delicious balsamic vinaigrette on it, then they give you a little container of pesto to pour over top. There's grilled chicken topped with cheese and sliced Roma tomatoes on top that I like to separate and mix in. There's also olives, cherry tomatoes and plenty of fresh Parmesan. I think I could eat this salad everyday. To order here you walk up and stand in like while you peruse the menu. Then after you order and pay, they give you your drinks and number and you find your own table. This is the only thing I don't like about this place. It can be difficult to locate a table and then navigate through the labyrinth with drinks in hand to claim it. You have to go grab your silverware, napkins and perhaps a free slice of delicious sliced bread on the side of the restaurant. They don't give you refills unless you're drinking water. read more

A charming lunch spot. Their salads are the best & the frozen coffee is a must. Friendly staff and nice atmosphere.

Went there for lunch. My partner ordered the philly sandwich. It was very good and the meat was very tender. I ordered the chicken pesto sandwich. My chicken was very tough and dry. I will visit again to try something different although the chicken pesto lete down. read more

Heard it was good. And the recommender was upset she recommended it Disorganized and staff in chaos mode. Skip it on Sunday's, at least.

Pleasantly surprised! I'm still a novice to the menu but the couple items I've tried have been great! Only complaint is the proximity to my gym, not beneficial to my fitness goals, lol! read more

CROISSANT CLUB is a MUST have when coming here. Their honey mustard is the best. By far best sandwiches

The Cobb salad is awesome! I like lots of veggies in my salads; they have delicious choices.

Sometimes it's chaotic, and sometimes it's a long wait, but it's ABSOLUTELY worth it every time! My favorite thing on the menu is the Soprano salad. Absolutely delicious! Great menu for any diet. read more

This place is always consistent and delicious! My kids crave it now so what does that tell you? They always order the grilled ham & smoked Gouda sandwich and I'm always torn between the croissant club or mushroom burger. Caesar salad and their honey mustard dressing is the BOMB.COM. I've almost been able to recreate the HM at home so I can put it on all my kids sandwiches whenever, but would rather just buy the Caesar and take it home. Never dissatisfied here, Never. read more
