I came to the shop coworking space for an event that was hosted here after hours, so this review is…read morebased on the space and not as a place I've co-worked. First of all, the space is gorgeous and has a lovely open space set up! The are booths if you prefer that seating to others, there are large wooden tables if you need lots of surface space, and there's also a long bench with small tables if that's what you need. I love the versatility. The windows are so large and there's such a great view of the city. Andddd there's a Black coffee shop, Mr. Wolf, downstairs! The downside is that you have to pay for parking. But there's a parking lot and metered parking all around.

Great place for meetings downtown. I attend monthly work meetings here and like that (paid)…read moreparking is easy available across the street and they have a variety of areas to conduct business from private rooms for one on one meetings to conference areas for small groups.

Love the exposed brick walls and the 14 foot high ceilings that mimic the night sky. The grand fireplace wall is perfect for taking photos with family or friends. The space is so open and inviting with an antique bar and plenty of space for couches, tables and seating conducive to mingling. Catering is easily done with Sukho Thai downstairs. Get the spring rolls, fried tofu and fresh rolls with a peanut dipping sauce for appetizers. For main courses, try the pad Thai, drunken noodles or I Love You, My Sweetheart. Filled with eggplant, veggies and a choice of proteins, it is so good. Finish the buffet with sweet mango sticky rice. Great place for a special family event.

SCALE New Orleans is my favorite place to get work done and socialize with great people. Yes! You…read morecan do both! I recently returned to the great city of New Orleans and quickly realized that my very humble abode was not going to be very conducive to getting work done. So the search for a co-working space began. After almost 4 years of working remotely, I wasn't sure I would like returning to an office environment, but SCALE has been great. Perks of working from SCALE: * Members get 24/7 access and it's very secure! * Some of the desks have monitors! No more hunching at your laptop. * Telephone booths and conference rooms when you need a bit more privacy. * Well climatized - perfect for the summer heat or sweater weather. * The space is filled with plants; windows; local art; free espresso and coffee; and just the right amount of white noise. There's even a rooftop terrace just outside the kitchen. * The other members are friendly! They will talk to you if you want and respect you if you have jump on a call or get work done. * They will take deliveries for you. No more worrying about porch pirates. * Lyle, the owner, is often on-site and really cares about us. (awwwww) * There's even a shower! (But if you need a hairdryer, be sure to bring your own). Other things I've noticed - people are very friendly and welcoming. This is a place where you can come as you are. The diversity in the people make SCALE reflect some of their FLOR rug designs - they don't necessarily all coordinate, but somehow it works and looks good (see pic). Your network can really expand here as there are so many people with different work and life backgrounds. I did visit other coworking spaces, but the atmosphere was not as welcoming and felt a bit sterile. Couple that with too much hard concrete surfaces and I knew there would be an issue with noise. Come visit SCALE for a tour & check it out yourself! If you see me, introduce yourself and let me know you read my review! See you soon!

My oh my!!!! Where…read moreshall I begin. This place & Lyle are a godsend. As if being a NEW entrepreneur + FIRST time inventor, wasn't enough. Throw in manufacturing why dontcha? Well ok so there's the quandary... how + where do I make these things? Well here is Lyle + Scale Workspace to render me aid. This place is a hidden gem in "THE NOLA BABY", I mean just think of it... if you can put on your thinking cap, then you can come here, construct a mold & create it. That's how it happened for me. Picture it: -God gave me an idea -Lyle + his team brought it to manifestation. Just that simple. Once you know the direction (to creating a thing), you can head here. Lyle + his team are simply the best, better than all the rest... y'all know the Tina Tuner song, don't try to fool me now. At any rate, taking a tour is ESSENTIAL!!! As it adds sheer excitement to the endless possibilities of the things you can create here. There's an area to co-work and use computers. There's an area to make & receive private phone calls. There's an area to get your eat on, fashioned with all of the niftiest gadgets & appliances. There's a place to shower, should the need arise; say if you ride a bike in or if you even if you need a quick pick me up. There's an area to make, create & bring your vision to life. There's a rooftop area that is quaint & perfect to take a little siesta. There's an area to get your Shutterfly on; taking photos is essential to share any work of art. And the great thing about all these areas and many more, is that they come with MEMBERSHIP. Man oh man, talk about "membership having its privileges..." I love it. Oh and did I tell you have access whenever you want, I mean I don't know if overnight is an option, but if it is, you have the ability to gain access with the touch of your finger. Yep!!! No keys needed... your very own biometrics will give you access to the tools & skills lab you need to create. I've been advised of the parking beneath the bridge or you can park alongside the street and use the parking meters, FYI. I plan to utilize the amenities here to create and create and create some more. BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR MORE NEW PRODUCTS FROM ME, YOUR FRIENDLY YELP-ELITE INVENTOR!!!

Was surprised that Launch Pad didn't have a Yelp listing, and found it necessary to add one because…read moreI keep trying to check in there... Launch Pad is hard to categorize, because it's much more than an event venue--it's a coworking space, the headquarters of a growing collection of startups, and a community of entrepreneurs working to make New Orleans a better place. If you're a freelance consultant, small business owner, or someone who works from home, Launch Pad is an excellent option for a more professional workspace; you can have meetings with clients in an actual conference room, rather than at a coffee shop or in your living room. (It does make a difference, by the way. My business has grown significantly since I became a member of Launch Pad, thanks to referrals from other LP members and also to the professional work environment and resources available via LP's network of entrepreneurs.) Membership rates are reasonable, and more than worth the investment if you're looking for an opportunity to help your business grow. You don't have to sign a 5-year commercial lease, because memberships are month-to-month. Come check it out for a day, for free, and see what you think.

Really thankful for the person who added their Yelp review because I may not have found them. Spent two days working here while in from NY this week. Folks were nice. Space was pleasant and exactly what you needed- awesome Mojo coffee, open space and tables, different seating options and a phone booths too. Respectful Co-working folks in the space. Visiting town the fact that Mother's Restaurant is right across the street is epic - for breakfast, lunch or dinner that is fast and delicious. Also really easily walkable to all warehouse and CBD hotels. Not too far off the quarter either. Will definitely be back if I need to work in town again. Thanks cool peeps!

If you're passing through town or just working for a few months in Nola and need a place to work, that has a Nola vibe, this is the best. Very affordable, very safe 7-7, then be careful, but that's Nola unfortunately. Full kitchen, fast internets, phone booths for private calls, I like the bathrooms (hey it's important when you work somewhere 40 hours a week). No complaints. Started as the cheapest level and worked my way up to a small office. Great coworkers, mostly writers, geeks, and a few professional services and non profits, all feel a million miles away from my corporate cube.

Though the studio is old, each class provides EVERYTHING you need to practice on the wheel - clay, tools, aprons, etc. You have to pay extra per piece you want to fire and we didn't get free reign with glazes and trimming (the instructors do it for you). But I didn't mind for the price, and it makes it easier for those who take the class to spend it entirely on honing in the art of throwing. Overall a great start for beginners who have always wanted to try ceramics! They really create a safe space for you to mess up and learn. Taught by experienced instructors, Byrdie's has reasonable membership prices as well!

You are reading this here first: Byrdies makes the best sandwich I've ever had. What's more? It's…read morealso the cheapest sandwich in New Orleans! The value is incredible (ie, I don't mean shitty American "cheese" and limp iceberg lettuce-cheap. I deserve better than that. *You* deserve better than that). Those tomatoes on there are probably heirloom and for greens, we're talking arugula. The specialty veg sandwich has an avocado spread that's out of this world divine delicious and the other day, I was introduced to the joys of buttermilk cheese sprinkled on top. They make their own *bread* for god's sake... If you don't like red onions or red pepper, Chris will gladly substitute you with something else. And whatever the ingredient, there's just the right amount of everything perfectly combined to make a sandwich into an edible piece of art. OK, so the price for this incredible sandwich that I still can't stop thinking about and have had to have twice in less than a week when I normally don't eat lunch out? FIVE FUCKING DOLLARS! Make that four with the Yelp Check-In offer. I shit you not. And yes, I'm cursing up a motherfuckingstorm because I feel like I've discovered something not many people know about (with the exception of Yelptern, Emily A, who introduced me to the joys of Byrdie's sandwiches just recently). And just so you know I mean business. I consider this place to be really off the grid when it comes to food. For the love of a good sandwich, stop in immediately and do yourself a favor with one of these incredible concoctions. See a fantastic art installation that a righteous feline might be guarding along the way... One other thing: I haven't tried it yet, but you should probably also know there's a homemade lavender bread with homemade strawberry jam, along with other pastries made in-house. These folks aren't fucking around.
