The food was great, I had the brisket boudin breakfast bowl and an iced chicory coffee, and everything in the bowl tasted so fresh. To finish, I had their nectar cream donut, which was huge and not too sweet. This is our second trip, and we're already planning our next visit whenever we're back in New Orleans.

The glazed donut was amazing because it was warm. The chocolate frosted was good but not great - the bottom isn't glazed and it was dense. The smoked Gouda grits were delicious - very heavy for breakfast but worth it. The matcha latte was disappointing. It was lower end matcha and not a proper proportion to the oat milk.

Café du Monde is an institution in New Orleans, especially the original location along the…read moreMississippi River. If you are in the area, it's well worth a visit, even if the line is ridiculously long. Some things in life are just worth the effort, and this place certainly qualifies. For the uninitiated, a beignet is a French doughnut, deep-fried and dusted with powdered (confectioners') sugar. The result is a treat like none other, especially when paired with a café au lait (coffee with hot milk). Check out Café du Monde. You will be delighted that you did, and you will also become part of its history, joining the millions of patrons who have visited throughout its many years of operation.

One of the traditional must-do's for first-timers, this place seemed to be crazy-busy each time we…read morewalked by off the edge of Jackson Square. They have dining in it at their space, but they also offer a take-out window which is what we used so that we could take our food to the nearby steps to take things in. The line was lengthy, but moved efficiently. It is cash only, which luckily I was prepared for. The lady taking our order was a tad short in her exchange with us (not sure if the norm and just part of the experience or just a bad day). We got their Beignets ($4.53 - for a bag filled with 3 and a pile of powdered sugar) since that is what they're known for. These are best hot with their crunchy exteriors. There's a good chance most of the sugar will probably be at the bottom of the bag, so be careful if you're wearing a color that would show it easily when spilled on you. We also got a bottle of water ($3.60 - we don't like coffee, but that would be the other thing they're known for), and a praline ($2.73). Some folks swear by this experience. It's good and I recommend it, but not sure it would be a must-do if we were to ever return.

I decided to DoorDash from Buttermilk Drop Bakery and Cafe, and I am so glad I did! The order was…read moreprepared quickly and was still warm when it arrived. I started off with a honey butter biscuit, which was soft yet crispy on the outside and had a nice sweet flavor. The only downside was that butter wasn't included in the order, so it was on the drier side. I then got an order of pancakes, which were delicious. I love when pancakes have a crispy edge where it was cooked in butter, and these did that perfectly. The smothered potatoes were unlike anything I have had before and were flavorful and a nice side. I then decided to try the glazed beignets, which were a nice sweet treat to end the meal with. They were a little dense, but I still enjoyed them! I will definitely be back if I find myself in New Orleans again!

She was polite and hospitable, and said she couldn't wait to see me. It was the type of interaction you'd expect from Chick-fil-a. When I arrived, a young lady, perhaps a teenager, took my order and quickly boxed up my two dozen donuts. Again, she was hospitable and patient. I felt valued, and not like I was bothering them for patronizing their business. The donuts were still warm when I got home. The family quickly devoured them. And the icing on the cake? Two dozen mixed donuts were only $22 including tax. Other donut shops and bakeries could take a lesson in customer service from this place. It's simple--either train your staff to interact respectfully and professionally with customers, or if they lack the people skills, consider placing them in roles behind the scenes where they can still contribute without impacting the customer experience. I'm talking to you Buttermilk Drop and Adrian's Bakery. Regarding ambience, it's seen better days, and it's in a sketchy part of town. And, yes, there was a car parked on the grass, almost on the sidewalk, in front of the store. Hehe! That said, it's a great value.

A true Algiers staple. Real hole in the wall energy, but don't let that fool you... they should be way bigger than they are. The donuts? Baby... Pillowy soft, moist, and fried perfectly. Like melt in your mouth good. They soooo good. The classic glazed is my go-to every time, but I'll grab other flavors for my coworkers too. Now I will say, they lean a little sweeter than your average donut, but that didn't stop NOTHING. Still tearing them up. I don't get to go as often as I'd like because it's the opposite direction from my job and my son's school, but when I do? Yeah... it's worth it every time. This is definitely my preferred donut shop. And the prices? Very reasonable. They really the front runners of the donut game from Algiers to Harvey. I said what I said. And on top of that, Black owned and operated by Mr. B himself. Yeah... go support.

There are some cute tables and chairs outside as well as about 10-15 seats at counters inside. I was greeted when I walked in and got in line at the counter. The pastries looked so fresh and delicious it was hard to choose just one. I went with a Pan O Chocolat, a chocolate filled croissant and iced latte. The prices are typical for a coffee and pastry. The croissant was so flaky and mouth watering. I ate very slowly enjoying each bite. The iced latte was good as well. I sat right by the espresso machine and enjoyed watching the baristas making coffees. I saw one come out with a perfect heart on top. They also have full bread loaves for sale as well as items for breakfast and lunch. I will definitely be back to try another pastry.

The line moves fairly quickly, so don't be deterred if the line is out the door. Seating is very limited, so we took our items to go. Definitely worth the visit!
