First impressions are mostly a good indication of what your experiance may be...and this location did not disappoint. The four of us walk in at 11:10 A.M. and are greeted by two less than enthusiastic employees that proceed to tell us "it's counter service so grab a menu and seat yourself" The about 5 minutes later after looking at the menu, one of us got up to ask about a menu item, we were told..."we stop breakfast service at 11:00" a finite detail left out as we walked in, nor was is posted anywhere obvious. So we left and went down the road, calling first, to another broken egg. read more

Wanted to try something new. Saw that Cafe Navarre had decent reviews and decided to give it the chance. Ordered pancakes and the Chicken pesto panini. The food was ho hum. There wasn't much flavor in the food given that you are in N.O. Overall there are so many better options of cafes to go to in Nola. read more

Friendly, very attentive, 10%off for students and not to mention delicious breakfast! Thank you! read more

Cafe Navarre - Navarre special has everything good on the menu all in one dish. - Sandwiches Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Stumbled on this place and it is legit, the best breakfast I've eaten. The service is great, the Irish coffees are great. I will be coming back here tomorrow. read more

Great atmosphere. Quality foods and interesting twists on brunch favorites. Try the Eggs Blackstone, a different take on Eggs Benedict. The grilled tomato has wonderful flavor. read more

They have an excellent Breakfast and Lunch menu! I've been there during lunchtime and the food is amazing. And the prices are even more amazing. Definitely affordable and definitely worth going to. I highly recommend this place. read more

This is a great little neighborhood breakfast & lunch place. Nice staff and pleasant atmosphere, and reasonably priced for some standard fare. My main knock on the place is that the home fries are obviously frozen, pre-processed potatoes, but overall still a good local place. read more

This is my favorite breakfast spot in town. Great relaxed atmosphere. Friendly staff that hustles so much, you'll never wait longer than 5 minutes for a table. The chocolate chip and banana pancakes are the best. You can't go wrong with the buttery biscuits. Though not a "high-end" restaurant, the chefs put all others to shame. Best poached egg in the city. Those guys in the kitchen have skill. Located in a great neighborhood, I like sitting in the porch outside and sipping mimosas! read more

My friends and I eat here quite a bit; great food with a great atmosphere. This is a perfect spot for breakfast during the week before, between, or after classes. I love the Matt Griddle and the American omelet. read more

Not bad. Not amazing. Great little lakeview spot for a quick brunch. Nothing bad to say at all but really nothing great to say. I'm sure I'll go back but not my first choice for neighborhood atmosphere brunch. read more

The catfish po' boy was excellent! The service was friendly and quick as well as the price being easy on the pocketbook.

Found this on Yelp - the reviews were essentially all glowing. However our experience on Saturday, March 18th, was far from that. The highlight of our visit was a hostess who was friendly and welcoming. Our waitress appeared to be completely indifferent towards us. Our food was subpar - it was the Navarre special: eggs scrambled with ham, potatoes, onions and tomatoes. It sounded wonderful - but when the food came out it looked nothing like scrambled eggs. The eggs were almost nonexistent- and what little egg was there - was dry, over cooked and unappealing. The dish was a dark, brownish-reddish mash-up that appeared to be mostly (over-cooked) potatoes, small pieces of ham, onions and tomatoes. It was served with grits that were tasteless themselves but covered with cheddar and jalepenos - that was the best part of the meal - the little bit of cheese and jalepenos on top of the grits. Bad experience all around :( read more

I go to this place all the time. It's very close to my job. The staff is very efficient and polite. They always treat you with respect when you walk through the door. The food is very good. It's a standard cafe but I have never had a meal that wasn't good. I'm quite sure I f I had a problem that they would rectify it. As a customer all you can ask for these days is consistency as far the product and respect as a customer. read more

This is always a must have for breakfast when I am visiting friends in NOLA the food is consistently good every time we come back staff are friendly I would encourage locals and tourists alike to add this one to their breakfast lists read more

We loveI love this neighborhood gem a short walk from my girlfriend's house. The pizza and sandwiches are excellent. I would try the Cobb if they did't use cheddar (as I love good Cobb but really, blue cheese, please) We usually split a Ceaser with avocado and one of their excellent pizzas The evening service is prompt and cheerful, and they have more than once unchained a table for us if we arrived late on a slow night and wanted to sit outside. The turkey and roast beef debris po-boy is excellent and I have to stretch out and try their other sandwiches based on that. Everything we've tried so far is excellent, so I doubt I could go wrong. Brunch was good, but the hollandaise is much too light on the lemon juice for either of our tastes. Still, my omelette was huge and excellent with a first rate biscuit. If you're in Lakeview or Cemeteries and hungry, this is certainly your best choice. read more

Truly a small hole in the wall restaurant with amazing breakfast food. Easy walk from city park. Gets very busy after about 10am but completely worth the wait. Some of the best biscuits I have ever eaten. read more

First, Cafe Navarre actually has two sides. 1. typical new orleans breakfast/lunch poboy shop, and 2. Pizza place for dinner. I'll start with the daytime part of this restaurant. I want this place to be so much better than it is. I live 2.5 blocks from CN and it is inconsistent and the quality of the food is so-so. For breakfast there is nothing notable and if you get a Benedict then the hollandaise sauce looks and taste like it was made from a powder not fresh in house. Also, poached eggs have a 50/50 shot of being overcooked. I tell myself every time I eat here I'm not coming back but keep wanting it to be better. The lunch items are decent but nothing to cross town for. That said, their dinner time pizza restaurant puts out some of the best pies in town. The crust is thin but not like a cracker. Just right IMO. They have good toppings and clearly a great pizza oven that cooks them perfectly. I highly recommend their pizza, and unfortunately it seems like no one knows about it because the place often looks dead at night. 2 Stars for the daytime and 4-5 Stars at night for pizza Equals 3 Stars overall. read more

Great neighborhood place, good diverse menu. We will go for breakfast again since it is close to where we live

My husband loves the Cuban, and I go for the salads when we visit. Navarre is so convenient; it's definitely a neighborhood joint w a come-as-you-are vibe. You always run into a neighbor here! read more

This joint gets plenty of bad press, but I took a gamble anyway. Hey, it was only sweet potato fries, right? Too hot and too busy to cook, I caved in to a craving for SPF. I called in my order, hopped in my car and drove the short distance I would normally walk or ride my bike to retrieve my tawdry treat. As promised, they were bagged and ready when I arrived. The young lady at the counter was very sweet and polite. The AC was busted (isn't it always at this place?) so I took mercy on the poor soul in the kitchen. The SPF were sodden and not crisp but fries rarely are as they are not truly French fried, and two-step cooking technique, but I have no complaints. My belly is full, I spent less than $5 (I got a sweet tea) and I didn't break sweat. I need a go-to spot when my own cooking mojo is low and this is the next closet place. Will delve deeper into the menu next time. I can bring my mutt which is a great bargaining chip as CN is between my crib and City Bark. I am not an unhappy customer and will return. Not every meal is a culinary delight. Sometimes you just need to eat. read more

Awesome breakfast place! They have a beautiful outdoor patio. The breakfast was super delicious. I would definitely recommend the potatoes! Easily the best I've ever had. read more

Great place for breakfast! Mediterranean omelette was outstanding. Very reasonable price ($42 for 4 people including tip). Server was very pleasant. read more

Good service, good food! Quaint little breakfast/sandwich/pizza shop. A great "neighborhood" kind of place. Veg Omelet was great. Husbands Eggs Benedict with sausage and jalapeño was excellent. We also had a "to go" Cuban sandwich which was also excellent. We will go back. read more

I had brunch here a last week and much to my dismay, it was not as good as i had been told. I was in a large party and a variety of food was ordered some breakfast some lunch. I ordered a cheesy egg dish that to be honest i could have made better at home. There were grits on the plate too but i could not tell where the eggs started and the grits continued. It was also very warm in the resturant as it seemed that the ac was down. read more

Finally was able to try Cafe Navarre, and was not disappointed. I ordered the Spinach and Artichoke Panini , delish ! Our waitress Jade was awesome, very attentive and patient read more

Checked this place out last week for an early dinner. Just moved a few blocks away. LOVED the mushroom and onion pizza. The staff was friendly and we will definitely be back for the pizza! read more

The food is bland but good and I don't mind adding my own seasoning. What I'm uncomfortable with is paying(and tipping) for my food before I get it. Oh and the waitress sucks too. Good food and menu though. read more

This is a good, basic neighborhood place for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The service is always friendly and fast. My kids love the pizzas and turkey avocado panini. We get eggs and pancakes here on the weekends. It's not a destination restaurant, but a wonderful little spot for the neighborhood. read more

The cafe has an amazing atmosphere and feels very homely. The prices are pretty reasonable as well, compounded by their student discount. Being located next to Delgado makes it a wonderful stop in both the morning and afternoon for Delgado students in my view. As for the service itself, I've had nothing but good experiences with the Cafe staff to date. The waitresses I've seen so far have been very patient and kind, which only makes the place feel more relaxing to be at really. Though one of the more important aspects of any restaurant is the food, the so called bread and butter if you'll excuse the pun. Up till now I've had pretty good experiences with Cafe Navarre's food, much like other aspects of the restaurant. Definitely my favorite stop in the morning when I feel like sitting down somewhere and getting a bite to eat.The cafe has an amazing atmosphere and feels very homely.
