PJ's
Melissa W.

Delicious coffee and lemonade near the Mississippi River. Nice place to take a break after walking around. Plenty of booths and helpful staff!

Doug G.

This PJ's Coffee is situated at the corner of Decatur and St. Louis in the French Quarter and was my first introduction to the brand and began my subsequent obsession! When you walk in to the location, you are greeted by a small dining area along with the counter where all the goods are held. The pastry case holds cookies, pastries, bagels, king cakes and a few more specialty baked goods. Their menu and main focus is coffee and coffee-based drinks, but if you are after "no joe" or even an energy based drink, PJ's has you covered. I love me a good Iced Coffee, especially of the Mocha variety. And PJ's comes in clutch with their Iced Mocha and Iced White Mocha! Service was super friendly and helpful. The Barista's were helpful when I shared I was new to the brand and they recommended just the right stuff. The store was well kept and clean. Overall, I was in NOLA for 3 days, and two of those mornings were spent at this PJ's and since, I have found and visited other locations outside of New Orleans - I love me some PJ's!

Hot capuccino with lavender

This coffee place is a lot better than yesterday. First of all, you will be greeted by jolly friendly staff. 2nd, the coffee is better than yesterday. I like quality bitter coffee not a burnt coffee beans bitter. I ordered cappuccino with a shot of lavender, it came out perfect.

Coffee was so good!!! I had the blended mocha with soy milk. Also ordered a mocha with regular milk. They were blended perfectly. Such a nice barista and very helpful. Would go back if in the area.

Cool little coffee shop. Very limited seating inside. The coffee order was quick and tasted just as good as you want it to be. The staff was super nice

Coffee station along w nice pics of owners and their awards

We are staying at the hotel where PJ's is also a part of. This was very convenient because we needed something quick and simple. Staff: friendly and patient. Owner: was friendly and was helping around which was nice to see Location: located at the French quarter, it's very convenient. Parking: street or parking garage across PJ's Coffee. Coffee and pastry: their coffee was delicious. I had the regular macchiato, my sis has the skinny vanilla and cold brew shaken espresso w 3 pumps of white chocolate and almond milk. We had spinach/feta and jam egg and cheese. It definitely did the trick to tie us over until lunch time. I definitely recommend PJ's Coffee. When visiting, pls read their story and how they started their franchise. Enjoy!

PJ is really nice... he let me smell his beans
Holli A.

When I walked in was greeted by the owner PJ. He offered me an opportunity to smell his beans... coffee beans. The beans were fragrant and bright. His Dream Team Order/Baristas were friendly. I ordered the Butter Rum Latte with an extra shot. My drink was caffeinated perfection well balanced. I will definitely try to come back for a second visit before I leave NO. Thanks again, JP for a fun experience

This is definitely the only one cold brew that tasted rich in flavor in my recent three years. I was surprised at the first dip cuz it tasted even like they used chocolate syrup! Fast service and nice staff. The location is great, just at the French Quarter, so people can easily come here to grab a coffee during visit.

Ham and cheese croissant.

First time to a PJ's in NOL. Staff was confused and had trouble taking orders on a busy morning. Ham and cheese croissant was rock hard and cold on the inside. Appreciate they had 32oz black unsweetened ice tea.

Mariah M.

This place is so cute. First time in NOLA (much love from the DMV), and Pj's was so intriguing, my girlfriend ordered a coffee and she doesn't even drink it. if you're close to Pj's, feel free to stop here for a good coffee. The staff was informative, and greeted us with a smile before our morning walk.

Friendly service...but the original cold brew is not very good and not worth trying. I know it's a chain but I expected more.

I can't believe that I did not write a review before, maybe I did and it disappeared. Whatever the…read morecase, this place is an icon that literally every single person who visits New Orleans does or should visit. The lines can be long but if you time it right (like we did) you can walk right in and get a table. We arrived about 3pm and found a table immediately. The review starts and ends with beignets. In case you have not heard, they are outstanding. Once you can flag a server and place your order, they come out a few minutes later piping hot and smothered in powder sugar. It is hard to describe the pure delight of the first bite, quickly followed by a second and third (depending on your tolerance for really hot fried dough). Everyone loves them, as well they should. In October 2026 an order of 3 was $4.83. We got two orders for 3 people and they were gone before you knew it. If you have not been, you must. If you have, you know exactly what I am talking about.

So few places are cash only and it's good to know this is one of them. They know people rarely…read morecarry cash nowadays so they have their own ATM on site just in case. I was told this is one of the best places to get beignets! And I did enjoy them but I think I liked the frozen chicory coffee the best! My friend and I split an order of 3 beignets and each got a frozen chicory coffee for under $20. I liked the service which was super friendly-- our server chatted us up because he used to live in Cali where we were from. It was hot outside and this place has indoor/outdoor seating. We chose indoor to cool off from walking around outside. We chose to visit after our Natchez Jazz cruise which docked a short 5min walk away. I would say the beignets get really messy bc of the powdered sugar getting EVERYWHERE so I suggest having a napkin or two close by. I think beignets are best eaten right away while they're warm because I took some home on a plane after buying it at the airport and they were hard as a rock. I don't recommend. So if I'm ever back in NOLA, I need to come back!

If you are looking to avoid Starbucks or French Truck for your coffee fix and want something that is much locally based, Fourth Wall will fit the bill. The cold brew is wicked strong like much stronger than what I order normally at Starbucks. The iced London Fog lattes I discovered are premade, which overall my wife thought was alright, but she liked that they had gluten free blueberry muffins. The chocolate croissant was solid. The service was prompt and friendly. And the decor had a rustic ambiance with the brick walls, dark book shelving and garden patio in the back. The coffee bar has a hidden quality about it that is alluring and appealing. It was good to check out before we concluded our recent stay in NOLA.

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!

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)
