Located inside The Rink, another cafe for the uptown area. The coffee was great, but the turkey pastry I got was very bland. The barista was friendly, but some of the other young workers were extremely loud. I was in a far corner, and one was yelling about her day to day to the coworkers as they took up a table doing a task. I heard every word and so did everyone else at the cafe at the time. I typically wouldn't say anything but it was very disruptive and went on for a while.

We stopped in here for breakfast before our cruise. Everything was delicious and the place was clean and bright and hopping. Service was friendly and we found seats despite being a party of 5.

Sausage & egg breakfast biscuit

We had a scheduled Garden District architecture tour that started at the Rink on Prytania and we're looking for a place for breakfast beforehand when we stumbled on The Chicory House. This cute cafe is part of the Rink and was a great find. You order counter side but the bring you beverages and food to the table. Ordering counter side means you get to see their pastry case when ordering. We'd decided on a slice of their apple spice cake before anything else. It was so delicious with small bits of apple and even spice throughout. One of us ordered the biscuit sausage breakfast sandwich and the other a custom grits bowl with bacon crumbles and cheddar cheese along with a hot chocolate. The food well well priced and delicious. The biscuit sandwich was palm sized (larger than expected), flaky and had well seasoned sausage patty and eggs. The grits were well cooked & seasoned and a bit elevated with the bacon and cheese. This was a cute breakfast spot with indoor and porch seating. It was perfect for a quick but filling breakfast.

Had lunch here before our tour of the garden district. Sandwiches were tasty and the cafe is so cute. Also has a bookstore and shops right upstairs.

Nitro cold brew
Gabrielle A.

Ambiance was amazing . Staff was very nice as well. I got the boudin toast , very different but loved it . The nitro cold brew wasn't the best but definitely will try other beverages again .

Sweet potato biscuits

Amazing service with great coffee! You gotta have the sweet potato biscuit! Great stop when strolling the garden district!

Iced hibiscus!
Saphace A.

Our group was about to do the Garden district walking tour but wanted to get some caffeine. Most of my coworkers got lattes. I opted for the tea of the day, iced hibiscus with another flavor in it that I can't recall. Refreshing! Lots of green decor in here! It shares the same building as a few other businesses. A few tables inside and outside. Wonderful staff! They were very accommodating since there were so many of us.

Favorite cafe that we stopped into during our stay in NOLA! My iced carmel oat milk latte was INCREDIBLE. Had to come back for another one the next day. Food: Chicken salad sandwich- definitely recommend, very tasty! Ham sandwich- very tasty was well, was a 2nd favorite Turkey sandwich - meh, needed a sauce or something to add more flavor and it was a bit dry. Staff was very nice and loved the almost beachy vibe inside.

Cocktail menu at Mardi Gras 2023
Swati S.

This place is relatively new ( less than two years old ) and they're trying a lot of new things, but it seems they have their menu set for scones and sandwiches and salads as well as coffees and teas. Simply put, I don't enjoy the food. I find it overpriced and the service is not always the greatest. I feel like the food is lacking a certain amount of flavor and it's too generic for New Orleans. I think the big thing they get right is the table which they set up outdoors for Mardi Gras; the rest of the time it's OK if I skip it, I will give them credit for providing an average reasonable ambience for working in terms of the inside as a coffee shop. And that's about it.

Walking in the place is adorable and inviting. It has a good looking breakfast menu items and I very much enjoyed my iced chai latte. Service was a little slow but friendly.

A cute coffee house in a beautiful old neighborhood. The cafe au lait was fantastic. It's a nice place to stop in for a drink if your out and about in the garden district. Service was quick and friendly.

LOOK HOW DRY & COLD: the mystery - brownie? (even after reheating) that the condescending barista couldn't describe.

TOURIST TRAP 1. Atmosphere: this used to be the place where Garden District folk had their morning coffee. No more. The quality has tanked (See Pic). 2. Service: Anysmal. Since they reopened there is an old, snooty dude with a mustache that disdains clientele like a toilet brush. 3. Food: uggghhh no - see pic and review above. CAVEAT: This is a ruse for those on Garden District tours - like a Gray Line souvenir stop. Lovals have scattered to Ruby Slipper, Vintage, Another Broken Egg, French Truck, and even Starbucks 3-4 blocks nearby.

Great spot with beautiful outdoor seating in the garden district. Quiet and a great space to get some work done for work from home people. I had a dirty chai with oat milk and it was delicious, perfect balance of chai to espresso. The only downside is that the internet was not really working. Highly recommend otherwise and it may just have been the day too. Look forward to trying their lunch options as breakfast has no vegan option available but the veggie sandwich on the lunch menu looks great. They also have a kids menu if you're looking to bring the little ones.

Food and baked goods are mid, not bad, not great. Feels more like a tourist trap than a local community cafe.

They do have a vending machine but there are so many people trying to use it so save time and have some cash on you. There is an option for to-go so you're not dealing with the crowds or dine in. On on first day in New Orleans we explored the night life thoroughly and then stumbled across Cafe Du Monde, it wasn't too late at night but they were still opened which was nice. It was such a hot, humid night so we got their frozen cafe au lait and an order of their beignets. They paired so well together as we walked back to our street car line. I had a cafe au lait every day, it kept me cool and gave me some much needed energy with the heat. I know there's some debate on what cafe has the best beignets because I did find the night time versions do not compare to the fluffiness of those during the day.

It's a given you can't leave Nola without trying Cafe Du Monde. It's simply iconic. Due to time…read moreconstraints, we just got beignets to go. They have a special window for take-out which is cash only. If you do have the time, I recommend dining in. It's an experience in itself. The patio was packed with people. Music is bumpin'. Vibes were great. They only serve traditional beignets here. They were good but nothing out of this world. They are bigger in size and come topped with so much powdered sugar. I got their frozen coffee the next day and omg was it so good!! Highly recommend getting that if you go!

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)
