What a delightful find! As I was finishing my morning walk, I stumbled upon this quaint corner bakery and neighborhood gem! I was greeted immediately as it was bustling yet calm! The selections were amazing from pastries to coffee and teas! I ordered the blueberry scones and croissants! Amazing! A very special place!

I'm so glad to have found this little spot that was within walking distance to where we were staying for the weekend. The barista was so friendly and there's a good amount of seating, both indoors and outdoors. I loved my latte which was decently priced, as well as the Chantilly cake slice in the display case. Refreshing and light without being too sweet, and filled with blueberries! I can imagine coming here and reading for a while and enjoying the natural light coming through. Such a great find!

Vegan banana bread

Cute little spot tucked away in the Bywater. Offers a variety of drink options and pastries. I got the gluten free chocolate torte (it was amazing) and they had a gluten free blueberry muffin. The staff was very nice and definitely would return here.

If you're in Bywater and need caffeine or a nice place to work or read, go to Petite Clouet Cafe, a spacious corner cafe with indoor and outdoor seating. Stopping in for caffeine, my wife enjoyed the iced peach tea and I loved the iced chai latte. Service was excellent and quick!

What a gem of a coffee shop. Incredible service by the lovely baristas, so personable and kind. Great food options- croissants, quiches, pastries, yummm. Great ambiance and you can bring dogs! Will be back what a lovely way to start our day.

Iced Tea, Key Lime Pie
Jessica S.

Suchhh a great cafe in the area. So cute inside and everything we got was so good -- two iced teas (loved my 1/2 coconut oolong 1/2 white peach) and a splendid key lime pie. Also loved the vegan turmeric blueberry cookie

Espresso with complimentary soda water!
Keith S.

Yasssss!!! I randomly found this place while on a walkabout! A few things I love: - great espresso - they even gave complimentary soda water. That's how you know they're the real deal, baby! - friendly staff - and, get ready for this one, the typeface warms my heart! It is some sort of classic Belleville/upper east side typeface that empties French vibes. Really adds to the vibe. - speaking of vibes, the atmosphere is great too. Super welcoming. Oh so cozy!

Ube brownie, hibiscus lemonade
Cathy K.

Cozy, breezy cafe that blends indoors with outdoors. Cute dogs strolling in throughout the day. So many tempting pastries and savory little dishes to try. We came in the early afternoon, only a few items left. Tried the ube brownie, which was different. Kind of sweet and not too ube, but that was ok. Really liked the tomato spinach croissant, luckily we got the last one. Also recommend the hibiscus lemonade, was light and refreshing. Despite being run by 1 person on the weekend we were there, they were efficient and welcoming

Amazing coffee, food, and customer service. My absolute favorite spot to visit in the mornings.

The most magical little cafe in New Orleans. Great coffee and if you're lucky you'll get to hear some local musicians play while you enjoy your afternoon here.

Vegetarian quiche, cappuccino, spinach/ tomato, and almond croissant

A lovely coffee and pastry spot in the Bywater. Got a croissant with an egg baked into it to go with my latte, and it was delicious!

Cafe Du Monde - Beignets with hot chocolate

Cafe Du Monde

4.2(4.7k reviews)
1.1 mi•French Quarter
•$

Cafe du Monde is one of the most famous places in the French Quarter of New Orleans. It's very…read morecasual and definitely cash only. It's a place many tourist bureaus tell you to go and have a beignet or 10 with their own signature coffee. Their beignets are made fresh with a lot of excess powdered sugar on them. It's a definite place where friends are made and experiences are often shared with friends in the French Quarter. I've been here twice before but didn't file a Yelp review until this trip in 2026 October. The ambiance here can be wild and I can tell they do swift business here daily since it's so popular with the locals and the tourists. The seating area maxes capacity about maybe 50 people at any given time. You order from a window and it's cash only. There's an ATM nearby so be prepared to bring cash or your ATM card before ordering. The beignets are definitely made fresh and served 3 per order. Order enough and you'd have a party for one in your mouth while vacationing in New Orleans. Best bet would be to come early enough before the craziness swoops in. On my latest endeavor into the French Quarter, I arrived here around 12:45pm on a Tuesday afternoon and the tables had been overrun with tourists and locals alike, scrambling for the freshest beignets available that day. Maybe I got lucky, since I found an ATM nearby and withdrew $40 and bought enough beignets for a snack and possible dinner companions later in the day, since I had lunch already before walking over. No matter what your itinerary is in the French Quarter, make it a priority to come here on your trip to New Orleans. The overall experience here at Cafe Du Monde - French Market was crazy and a lot of turmoil due to the sheer size of the people who come here everyday. I managed to order my beignets (16), couple of cold sodas, and ordered it to go. While waiting for my order, I saw a bunch of people leave after dining in and another group seem to swoop in for their empty tables. I was surprised and mad at the same time. Oh well, must be tourists I guess. I ended up walking to the Caesar's Palace casino on the north end of the French Quarter and sat in their food court and enjoyed some of the beignets along with the sodas in tow. Cafe Du Monde is an open air restaurant and it has been here at the French Market for so many decades. This location is the first Cafe Du Monde location that ever opened up in New Orleans before it expanded into varying locations around town and even at the MSY airport - terminal B. It was nice to be here and order in a big amount of beignets for my own consumption. It's always cool to see a New Orleans institution thrive here and there's many tourists and locals who love beignets as much as the next person. For the most part though, Cafe Du Monde is a treasure and definitely a must do on your trip to New Orleans. Beignets are great but it's always a delicacy here in New Orleans. Do yourself a favor if you are craving some good and fresh beignets or just looking for an excuse to come back to New Orleans. Cafe Du Monde -French Market is located in New Orleans's French Quarter. It's physically located at 800 Decatur Street, New Orleans. They are cash only, as mentioned before. Bring cash beforehand or find an ATM nearby first. As far as parking goes, you'd be hard-pressed to find street parking, although there are some paid parking garages nearby, if you can look for them. There can be street parking though, but hard to come by on a random day. If you're a lover of public transportation, consider the right local bus routes to get here from your original destination. They'll be glad to have you but bring cash. Cash is king around here. And as always, there's always Uber or Lyft to assist you with bringing you here expeditiously and timely so you don't miss out on these delicious beignets and all these goodies that Cafe Du Monde has to offer. Do yourself a favor. Come here. You belong here for real. Make your stomach sing here on your next trip to Cafe Du Monde in the French Quarter. 5.0 stars for the overall experience, while crazy ambiance, it's the iconic place. Support local! A+

This is a must visit for me!…read more Yes, there are plenty of places to at serve beignets BUT not this way! Staff are experts servers. They can clear out a table, take an order and deliver the awesome beignets, coffee and even souvenirs within minutes. Our server was the best. She whisked in and whisked right out. During this Halloween weekend, the lines were massive. It's basically grab a table if you see one. Others stand in line for takeaway. The beignets melt in your mouth with its boatload of powdered sugar. Coffee is chicory. Strong as ever! Tables are cleaned in minutes so don't stress over a table not cleaned.

The Vintage - New Orleans, LA…read more The Vintage on Magazine Street was our very first food stop in New Orleans, and it turned out to be a great way for my wife and me to start our trip. From the moment we walked in, I really liked the atmosphere. The place has a cool, relaxed New Orleans vibe with a little bit of an upscale café feel without being overly fancy. It's the kind of spot where you can come in, sit down, enjoy some good food and drinks, and just take your time. Of course, we couldn't come to New Orleans and not start things off with beignets! We decided to go with the Fancy Beignet Flight, which gave us a chance to try several different flavors. We got the raspberry, s'mores, and Chantilly. They came out looking almost too good to eat, covered in powdered sugar with all the different fillings and toppings. Almost... because we definitely ate them! They were warm, sweet, messy in the best possible way, and a fun introduction to our New Orleans food adventure. For my meal, I ordered the Italian Panini with the truffle Parmesan fries. The sandwich was packed with meat, cheese, and flavor. Looking at that cross-section, they definitely weren't being stingy with the fillings! The bread was toasted nicely, and everything worked well together. The truffle fries were another highlight. They had plenty of seasoning and Parmesan and paired perfectly with the sandwich. I also grabbed a small iced mocha, which went really well with the food and especially the beignets. One thing I really enjoyed about The Vintage was the atmosphere. The interior has a lot of character, from the marble tables and vintage-style flooring to the bar and pastry display. It feels like a place that belongs on Magazine Street. It was comfortable enough that we didn't feel rushed and could just enjoy being in New Orleans together. The service was good during our visit, and everything came together for a really enjoyable first meal in the city. Our bill came to around $48 after tax and tip for the two of us, and considering we had a sandwich, upgraded fries, drinks, and the beignet flight, I thought it was a good experience for the money. Most importantly, this place gave my wife and me a great start to our New Orleans trip. When your first stop includes a loaded Italian panini, truffle Parmesan fries, iced coffee, and a whole flight of beignets, you know the trip is starting off right! Definitely a place I would visit again. Great food, great atmosphere, and a great first taste of New Orleans. 5 stars from us!

The vintage serves up traditional beignets with powder sugar, cinnamon sugar and speciality…read morebeignets with special fillings. There are sitdown options and you can order to go. We ordered to go and got rained on. Towards the front there is a seating area that we stayed in to eat our beignets! Service was great. They call you from the counter when your order is ready however if they can't see you they'll surely find you. So you don't necessarily have to come up too many times if your order is taking a little longer (beignets are made to order)
