    I'm a simple iced coffee girlie.

    Quaint neighborhood coffee bar. Indoor and outdoor seating. Surprisingly quiet space if you wanted to sit and work. Friendly service. Nice selection of pastries.

    Uptown Coffee in New Orleans was fantastic! The latte was absolutely delicious, the service was kind and welcoming, and the shop was very well maintained. Beautifully decorated with a cozy, inviting atmosphere.

    Wanted to get some beignets and this was the closest cafe to serve them! I highly recommend coming here instead of the touristy areas as there was no line to order them. You can also get coffee and/or work here. Glad we came across this location to try out the beignets!

    We went here because it was late and wanted to try beignets. Save your money - this is ain't it for beignets. Good coffee - with almond milk. They have table top pac man which is why they get an extra star on their review.

    Great place for coffee and a beignet. We tried this place recently and had a great experience. The staff were friendly, the coffee was tasty and the beignets were delightful. Easy walk from our place in the Garden District. Check them out!

    Ooh the beignet place is back! But with a new name and a new menu. The beignet spot has been closed since Ida. Now that's its open, it's no longer a franchise of the not famous chain. So it's reinventing itself with pastries and all the fancy coffee drinks. Good news - it still has the mini beignets. But no longer has the chocolate ones... Which is fine honestly. The beignets are perfect, light fluffy and yummy. Bad news for me... No iced tea but maybe that will be available eventually. The drink menu is much larger than before with a legit barista working, making all the fancy coffee drinks. Service was great. The space is open with high ceilings. It's still a liitle sparse but they're getting there. The spa water was a lovely touch.

    In NOLA on a beignets tour, lol. This was the first stop, off to a strong start. Soft, fluffy and loaded with powdered sugar so the kids are happy. The decor in here is nice the people were clean and polite. Oh and the coffee was pretty awesome

    Beignets

    Needed to have a Beignet and Cafe while in New Orleans. Cafe Du Monde is always busy.... Found this local place a few steps off of St Charles (near our hotel). Clean place, friendly staff and delicious beignets and coffee. We walked there from our hotel and had a quiet morning of beignets and cafe before the bustle of the French Quarter.

    Can't go wrong with the bite size beignets and the frozen cafe au lait. A little hidden gem worth trying! Cafe Du Monte is delicious but this is a close second!

    Excellent beignets, coffee and service! Skip the lines and horrible traffic and head here.

    The coffee was decent, but the restaurant was beautiful. Good service and a nice spot to study. Music was great too!

    Really good (and big) cup of coffee and a beignet (also big) that was delicious and freshly cooked.

    One of my favorite places in Nola besides the fantastic restaurants and my 20 appearances at…read moreJazzFest, is Drip Affogato Bar Nola on Camp Street. I hear they're moving to a larger place which they have earned. When I first met the couple after they just opened this joint I was impressed with their leap of faith to create this place. The interior is an Alice in Wonderland full of whimsy, interesting art and beautifully designed decor that screams fun. Just like on my first JazzFest in 1987 an elderly man with one tooth in his mouth ambled up to me and said "if you can't have fun in New Orleans, you ain't got a pulse" My friend and I ordered the following Gris Gris with espresso: gris gris banana brown sugar gelato, praline rum ball, brûléed banana, caramel rum drizzle, cinnamon dust, espresso boozy version option: spiced rum evo drizzle option: koroneiki It was delicious and was a perfect ending after we had a great meal. I look forward to their move to their new location which I heard will have an event space. All the best to Drip and the Drippetts.

    If I were rating atmosphere alone- 3 stars would be generous…read more I am rating product and service because adding "ambiance", would do those who work here and their product a disservice. It takes a while to get your order because of low staffing. That said, when you get it of course it's beautiful and tastes great. Sitting just around the corner from Bourbon St. and the hustle and bustle energy that you walk thorough to get here- walking in was disappointing. It's a large open space with seating- and it's QUIET. No background music. It gives late night diner vibes and honestly, that's too bad. Adding music, upbeat- doesn't have to sound like a club but music and having more energy between staff and customers would greatly improve the experience and I believe, increase business. If there were some Fats Domino or 90s R&B flowing out of speakers and staff were smiling, upbeat, dancing etc. it would give more "legendary" experience verses midnight diner vibe. That alone made me not want to come back. Not everyone wants to drink alcohol so stopping to sit for a well made artistic milkshake is a great option. The energy brings down the vibe and experience. Match the ambiance, service and vibe to your menu and 5 stars all day.

    This is a cute little place in the French Quarter that I feel is typically woefully understaffed…read morefor what they provide. The staff is always nice, but I feel that they are always so stressed to get the product out. The shakes are so overpriced. The small size is $1 less than twice the size. Now, you can share these delicious shakes with a friend or loved one (either size) but with tip, you're still spending $20 on one shake. Because the shakes are so elaborate and intricate, you're going to wait about 15-20 minutes per shake, even if you're the only ones there. I would love to give them more stars because it is such a delicious experience, but only have one to two people working is a very hard line to draw if you want customers to be patient/happy.
