    This place is SO good, and very reasonably priced! Some of my foodie friends brought me in a few months ago, and I have not been able to stop thinking about their brunch!! This time I got the chicken fried steak, with biscuits, and frips on the side. I'll be honest that the chicken fried steak wasn't as good as last time-- it was more of a ground beef texture. The biscuits were absolutely amazing, and the perfect texture and taste to go with the gravy! The frips were also surprisingly good as I'm not a huge potato person! The burrito bowl is also something I wouldn't have ordered myself, but my friends loved it! Overall, it did have a good flavor, better than I expected. I love a pancakes come with real maple syrup! This is a huge plus for me, as it makes such a difference in my opinion. Overall, the price point for these made from scratch Meals is so good! This may be my favorite brunch in the city, as everything comes out piping hot, and incredibly fresh. Service is also amazing as well! The restaurant is small, with one back room that allows for a more intimate setting. There's also a patio, which I have not yet gotten to sit on with the cold weather! I would recommend making a reservation in advance since there is not a huge amount of seating.

    Caprese avocado toast

    Great brunch spot for a big group! They were very accommodating of our group of 8! All the food was hot and yummy! My avocado toast came out without the caprese and the waitress was so nice and immediately corrected it! The espresso martinis were not my favorite but I also like a milkier martini and this was very dark! But the blueberry pancakes always steal the show at Hay Jay's! They bake the blueberries in and it's sweet and hot and so good!! They do have a good coffee bar that we didn't try so I will be stopping by again to check that out!

    I am glad I got to try this place! I don't go out to this area often, but some friends planned brunch here because they love it. So my expectations were high, but definitely met! They have a very wide variety of options in their menu. So everyone can find something they like. They also have a full coffee bar. I ordered an iced brown sugar latte. It was a tad too sweet for me, but I will know to order less syrup next time! The food was delicious and the service was great! I must try if you're ever around.

    Breakfast Burger

    My husband and I found Hay Jay's over the summer and have been here quite a few times after. We often have the same waiter who is incredibly kind and remembers us each time! I will update this review with his name next time we go. My husband loved his breakfast burger and I have enjoyed the eggs benedict and chocolate chip pancakes. I loved the white american omelette I had the first time but not as much the second time. I will have to try it again to see which time was the fluke. Overall great experience and great staff! Also very clean bathrooms with a changing table!

    Breakfast burrito

    Stumbled upon this drive through coffee place as I needed a little pick me up for food. I got their potato burrito with salsa and it was fantastic. Will be going back to try their matcha soon! The staff was also very kind and informative!

    The food was so good! And quick service! The ambiance is nice and chill! They have games if you want to chill and play a game and there is art to look at

The decor is minimal but I loved the different gold mirrors. When I ordered the cashier at the counter was all smiles and just a delight to talk to, she was super friendly. She was very helpful since it was the first time being there she explained everything so it was easy to make a good decision. I ordered a flight so I was able to sample for different signature flavors. My favorite was the Midnight Coconut and Crème Brûlée. I would recommend this coffee shop to anyone who is looking for a good coffee shop!

There are three flavors of smoothies to choose from: mango, wild berry, and strawberry. The Crescent Brûlée is a blend of caramel and vanilla, topped with whipped cream and a burnt sugar top. Both of the drinks we had tasted good. I'm not a big smoothie person--in fact, this is my first time ordering a smoothie in a long time--and I was very pleased with it. It was very smooth. Their menu is pretty extensive, in my opinion: coffee, tea, matcha, seasonal lattes, energy drinks, as well as some pastries and breakfast sandwiches. I also appreciated how easy it was to read their menu. I feel like a lot of the time in coffee shops, their menus are all over the place and you have to ask a lot of questions. This menu was nicely written. The shop has a very welcoming vibe, with different plants and displays. They also sell a few different things, such as clothes, sage, stickers, and different stones. Overall, I'd definitely recommend this coffee shop, and I will definitely be back.

The location on 204th Street in Gretna is clean, open, inviting ... but noisy. It's one of those warehouse-type settings where you really have to work at having a private conversation. Seating is expecially comfortable in the big chairs, but then you have to schootch them close together and lean in so you can hear each other, which is unfortunate. Granted, tables are set far apart, but this should be in addition to. Coffee was delicious, but the beignet bites were just so-so. Granted, one should not expect New Orleans beignets outside of New Orleans, but these little donut puffs had only a light dusting of powdered sugar (which I actually was thankful for because I wore black pants!), and there was a not-overly-pleasant surprise inside with an indistinguishable creamy substance that was sort of like the inside of a brown sugar cinnamon poptart, only less so. I hadn't been expecting that. The yogurt parfait was substantial and delicious. (The staff was friendly and helpful when making selections, but it didn't occur to me to ask about fillings.) I might visit again, but maybe at one of the other locations, if acoustics were more promising.

I have loved their speciality strawberry shortcake iced latte and love the Kosmic Krunch. Staff here are also so welcoming and friendly. When I stopped in to get my friend a birthday coffee, I asked if they could write happy birthday on the cup which they gladly did. They said to tell her happy birthday from everyone there which was so sweet! It has a bit of seating inside and always seems to be a popular spot for meetings or people catching up. I have loved everything I have tried here and I love the decor/overall vibe.
