Probably the best coffee in town. Located in a not so busy area with easy parking on this one way non congested street. Run in and grab a great coffee or park yourself in their cozy indoors with high ceilings or outside with their outside seating. read more

I really enjoy this spot baby I'm jacked now Great park across the way Staffers are super friendly... I just cane again to get the drip coffee with free refill and of course 3 credit cards I tried were declined....it was truly embarrassing and yet a tall blonde lady was patient and allowed me to save dignity by giving me a cup of coffee! No charge and I hid in a corner to use my phone apps to check balances....of course I was at fault....I had made a payment on time earlier in the week which had not cleared...long story short....I went to pay and a red haired barista chatted me up and these guys are so nice....he asked me about my work and was interested.....they allowed me to save face! I truly love this place. 2.75 for two great coffees' Nice park and quiet location! Ty vm! N read more

Favorite coffee shop in NOLA! Great selection of coffee and espresso. The baristas are really helpful too when deciding different roasts or espresso flavors. Plus it's a good place to study or read a book. There's always good music and chill coffee shop vibes! read more

Probably some of the best coffee in the city, scrumptious macarons, great study spot, community place with kids and dogs everywhere, love it!! Sad the Magazine location closed - that one was so gorgeous and classy. This one is much airier and open though read more

Very good latte decorated with some coffee art! Always fun! Service was great and the food (which we didn't even know they had upon arriving) was incredible. The sweet French toast was perfection. It wasn't too heavy like some can be. It came with the right amount of fruit and everything. This is a great neighborhood spot and I would really like this place to stay for a long time! read more

Cherry Coffee Roasters - New Orleans - Medium Latte - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

One of the best coffeeshops in NOLA. The space is bright and has plenty of seating, the coffee is top-notch, and the food is great too. I recently tried the breakfast plate with eggs, bacon, potatoes, and bread w/ a really good jam. The new location down Magazine is also really great---it just opened about a week or so ago. It's definitely a lot smaller than the one on Laurel, but the space is really cool with a bar to sit at and drink your coffee, and also a nice red velvet couch in the other room. Will definitely be coming back for many iced lattes. read more

Truly awesome coffee of all kinds. Been frequenting their spot inside of Stein's for a while now. And, I just discovered, their chai latte is AMAZING: spicy and gingery and just sweet enough. So good I felt like it deserved a shout out. Yum! read more

Pretty good coffee. Their beans are nothing unique, and I've never had anything stunning, but it's consistently nice. The food that I've tried has had similar consistency, but slightly lower quality. Nice vibes. it's a small space. Unfortunately every time I have been here to work the wifi is nearly unusable. read more

I hesitate to write this review because (warning) it will be great and then people will flock and I won't have a space to work from anymore. But, they deserve a good review because it's a great coffee spot so let's continue... Cherry EB has all of the essential qualities that make a coffee place great: a delicious brew, lots of outlets and table space, and sunlight. For coffee options you can't go wrong; all the classics plus the ability to have single origin coffee if you really know what you're doing (I don't). There are many two-seater tables, a couch corner, a long picnic table, and even some bar space. It's always full but I've never had to wait for a seat, somehow. The space itself is bright with lots of windows and the brick walls are hung with art. CEB gets its bonus points from the food which is fantastic and the baristas who are super friendly- the friendly chatter isn't rushed but damn do they work fast when they make your coffee. I live on the other side of the city but if I need to get work done I'm happy to drive uptown for some peace at CEB. read more

This used to be a favorite for my wife and I. We loved the food and the atmosphere but we've been coming less sand less sand probably won't be back any time soon. The coffee is good, generally though I didn't love my cappuccino today. I was surprised they didn't skim any crema off which made for a rather bitter drink. Their menu is also drastically changed since we started coming. They used to have absolutely delicious scrambled eggs but now they no longer scrambled them. They only "poach" them. But poached eggs shouldn't be hard and dry like these were. Given how long we waited for mediocre at best, overpriced food, I'll take a hard pass and good somewhere else with better food that takes less than 30 minutes to come out and has friendlier service. read more

Cherry Expresso is a cute neighborhood eatery, coffee house on Laurel, not too far off Magazine Street. It's so quaint and laidback and had this very eclectic crowd--from young families to a sophisticated group of four sexagenarians. We decided on a brunch selection--hubby had the breakfast sandwich, substituting the jalapeño hummus for avocado; and I had the breakfast plate with sausage (I had asked for bacon). The sandwich looked good, but I didn't taste it because, well, I guess hungry people don't like to share their food. I liked my dish, not typically a sausage person, but this was not Jimmy Dean's from back in the day--it had sage, and paprika, not spicy but definitely homemade. I also liked the toasted challah bread, served with apple cinnamon preserves. The only disappointment was that hubby thought he could get his one free refill to go--not so. Free refill only if you refill your original mug. That's a bummer, but we had to run so he had to buy ANOTHER coffee to go. read more

Great location. Great ambience. Pretty presentations of drinks. But every time I'm there, I see employees handling money, credit cards, and the register and then touching food without washing their hands. I would've thought that Covid had made people more aware of hygiene. read more

Been here a couple of times, and won't go back. It's so convenient to the kids playground, but the staff isn't very friendly, the food isn't very good (actually terrible), and it's overpriced. read more

Sarah is an amazing barista and she makes an amazing salad-- truly a renaissance woman. Worth it to go there just to meet her.

I like this place a lot, it's got a half-coffee shop, half-restaurant vibe, but leans more towards the coffee shop than the restaurant. The nice thing about this is that, in contrast to a lot of coffee shops that also have a full-service kitchen, you don't feel like you're being pressured to leave as soon as you get your coffee. There's a nice mix of people here on their computers studying and working, and people here eating brunch, breakfast or lunch. I got a single origin americano, which was delicious and not too acidic, and an Olive Oil Chocolate cookie to go with it. While it may sound a bit strange, the cookie was amazing. The olive oil gives it a rich, buttery flavor that contrasts the dark chocolate in the cookie really nicely. I'll definitely be back to Cherry, and it's pretty high on my list as one of the top coffee shops in New Orleans. read more

I came to Cherry Espresso because it is my sister's neighborhood coffee shop. It definitely is convenient and easy; there wasn't much of a crowd when we dropped in mid-day, so we did not have to wait for long. I loved the windows and natural lighting that they provided to the place. We were just dropping in but several other patrons were using the indoor seating to do work on laptops in the calm, laid-back setting. My double vanilla latte was satisfying and well frothed, but I had a hard time picking up on the syrup flavor. Of course this fact may be a one-time only issue or weak tastebuds! Nevertheless, the espresso was well done and flavorful in and of itself. read more

This is my favorite coffee house in New Orleans. The coffee is outstanding, and their breakfast is delicious. It has a small, funky atmosphere. Love, love, love this place! read more

DESPITE THE HIGH PRICES I KEEP RETURNING Lauren, you are awesome, amazing, friendly, I'd even pet-sit your cats over a long weekend. But please lower your sandwich prices 20% or provide a side. I hate patronizing your café while clandestinely nibbling on "Kind" bars from my back pack. read more

This place makes me want to put on a pair of oversized hipster glasses and take lots of photos with sepia filters to post on instagram. And I mean that in a complimentary way!!! Theres just something about the vibe of Cherry - the minimalist decor, exposed brick, huge arching windows --- that makes me feel like I should be sitting in here writing the next great american novel. Or, at the very least, doing something more meaningful than just aimlessly browsing reddit. I love the amount of light this space gets, I love the outdoor seating, i love the funky sculpture/light fixture suspended from the ceiling. Theres lots of tables, a great little fresh-from-the-kitchen menu, and of course, free speedy wifi. Seriously, what more do you need on a steamy NOLA morning?? Oh, they also seem to take their composting/recycling pretty seriously. Points for them!!! The coffee is strong and tasty. Not cheap, but for a once a week splurge, I can deal. The menu is great; a mix of fresh and healthy items and more indulgent savory options. I had a yogurt parfait and savored every bite. An order of breakfast tacos came out as I was ordering and dang they looked delish too. They also carry stein's bagels! An upgrade to their "baked goods" case would be my only tiny-and-not-very-essential suggestion. The small, dark case in the corner didn't do a great job of displaying the baked good options. Just my two cents! Cherry is a great little addition to the neighborhood!!! read more

we love cherry coffee! we live in the neighborhood and have become regulars. so much so that they water our plants and take our packages for us when we are away! read more

Best coffee in uptown NOLA. They do it right and pay attention to detail. If you think coffee is just coffee, then you definitely need to visit Cherry Blossom ( that's what I call it)... they will show you what coffee is like when it's turned into a perfected art form. read more

Amazing quality of coffee. Great atmosphere for leisure and work. They sell the amazing beans as well!!! Fav local coffee shop.

Nice large coffee house + great coffee - no prices listed = think it's going to be great! Huge new space that still smells of wet paint. They made my coffee in my travel mug which I appreciate and it was good. They are new so I assume that prices will be posted eventually. Think this is going to be a fun hidden coffee house! read more

How lucky to find Cherry right outside my AirBnB! I was happy to find the door open early on the first day of the year. What a pleasantly calm space. Cherry is bright and airy with great exposed brick and joists and plenty of seating. In addition to your typical cawfee offerings, the dessert case held scones and muffins. I ordered a bagel and lox along with a muffin. I have to agree with a portion of Julie R.'s review with respect to prices. a bagel with lox, a muffin and 2 coffees for $20? That seemed a bit much. Ok so prices aside, I enjoyed a great chat with the woman at the counter and really did enjoy the local flavor and vibe of this spot. I didn't get an opportunity to check out some of the menu items like eggs, but folks appeared to be enjoying their breakfasts. No doubt a neighborhood favorite and I would return. read more

Such an awesome spot in town. This is my second visit to the very cool coffee shop. I had a pour over prepared by the owner. How's that for service. Lauren did it right. If you are a looking for a shop that is in the know of how to do expressions right then visit this old fire station. read more

I hadn't really gone to Cherry much before when they were just at the kiosk spot in Stein's Deli. I am happy to see the building in a cool location, really sticking out in the neighborhood. The space is really open, and there is a lot of nice natural lighting. The hours are pretty solid, though I like shops that stay open later but that is just personal preference. You're gonna get a GREAT experience here. There are some newer baristas but they care about quality here, and they are constantly working to get better. Definitely one of the top shops I've visited in the city. Check them out! read more

Cherry Coffee Roasters - New Orleans - Cool, ambient atmosphere. Plenty of natural lighting. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Very busy on weekday mid-morning. No seats inside with lots to of people working--so I'd say this is a desirable stay and study shop. Coffee was scrumptious I'll buy the beans. Breakfast tacos a hit. No problems parking. We sat outside on little town patio so it was difficult to judge inside vibe, but since everyone was staying, I'd say it's a good one. read more

I visited Cherry Espresso Bar to study for a few hours and thoroughly enjoyed my experience. Every aspect met my sometimes impossibly high standards for coffee shops: friendly staff, good coffee, reliable wifi, clean bathrooms, plenty of parking throughout the residential area, and no unbearably loud music! I look forward to becoming a regular here! read more

Cherry Espresso Bar is a beautiful space to eat, have a coffee, or work. Location/Atmosphere: 5/5--Located on a cute street corner of Laurel and Upperline, the venue is gorgeous, inside and out. High ceilings, exposed brick, chandeliers, giant windows, chalkboards, etc. Very hipster-chic. They have wifi, and the tables looked really lovely for a spot to work on a lazy afternoon. Also, they seem to take recycling and composting seriously here, which is a nice touch. Service: 5/5. The baristas were really nice and made conversation with me while I was waiting for my drink. They seemed to know many of the cafe patrons as well. Drink: 4/5. My iced chai was very good. I wish they had a larger selection of teas and other coffee-type drinks other than espresso variations. Overall: Cherry Espresso Bar is a great addition to this neighborhood! read more

When I say *stunning*, I mean it. First, the space: it's a refurbished firehouse built in 1910 - streaming light, exposed brick, and gorgeous modernist woodwork by magnolia builders. Now, THE COFFEE: best in the region, hands down. like, best coffee between Atlanta and Austin. Maybe Miami has a competitor, but I'm not betting on it. My credentials: lived in Oakland for six years - the original Blue Bottle kiosk was my daily commute coffee before they had any other locations. When I lived in DC, my drinks were made by National Barista Competition champions. Like, first place friends - I know my espresso beverages. The espresso changes everyday, from roasters like Roseline, Coava and PTs. My usual beverage is a soy cappuccino, and the temp, milk texture and latte art is incredibly consistent. I also love their signature beverage, they call it a "Stella" - like a shaken iced americano, served neat. The Service: Small town charm, big city speed. I love the owner, Lauren - she is a cheese head from Wisconsin who is so kind, remembers everything about everyone, and also knows her s***. The food: there are rumors of full lunch menu to come, but for now they have cute pastries, including awesome chocolate chip cookies that are apparently vegan! In short, excellence. If it's out of the way, the Magazine location in Stein's is also great for quality coffee, but more cramped and, err, social in terms of navigating the bagel crowd. read more

I recently visited this place after reading a few reviews on Yelp. I walked in and I must admit that I did love the huge windows and industrial look. The seating is quite limited and we had to wait to actually find a table. We realised that there are no waiters/ servers and that you need to put your order in by the cashier.( why the tip then?). We ordering 2 cappuccinos, a salmon bagel and a veggie bagel. The cappuccinos tasted good but it was cold. The food came out quite quickly which we had to pick up by the cashier ( because there are no waiters). The Salmon Bagel was nice and they were very generous with the salmon. The veggie bagel was nice too. Fresh ingredients which are always a winner.Why the 2 stars? Because I have experienced better! There was nothing there that made me want to go back. I also felt that the ladies that worked in the front were not very friendly and they were more focused on chatting to each other than actually helping. Maybe someone else would have a better experience there , but I didn't! read more

Yep. This is it. If you like good coffee, Cherry is definitely worth it! I personally love their iced coffee more than any other spot in the city. Friendly people, pleasant vibes, delicious brews. Excellent espresso! 5/5 read more

Relaxing spot for a morning cuppa that also has ample space if you wanted to stay and do a little work or catch up with a friend. My girlfriend and I stopped here while visiting NOLA and it was a great start to our morning. The staff were friendly and coffee, chai, and pastries were delicious. read more

Excellent espresso drinks, some of the best I had in New Orleans. Great iced tea. Less sure about the food options as I didn't try much. Very cool spot as well. read more

So far I'm very impressed! I live across the street and had been patiently awaiting the opening. Coffee is great! Small menu compared to some places but enough. I was delighted to find they were serving food; breakfast and lunch! and so far I can attest the parfait, classic sandwich and frenchtoast are all stellar! The service is great, they are the nicest people and will happily edit any of the items for those picky eaters aka my BF... I really hope this place does well, they are still working out some new opening kinks but that is to be expected. I have had a few work meetings here now and I really like the space, more so then Manhattan Jack (I hope this place makes MJ work on its service) as it's quieter and smaller. read more

So glad I decided to get some work done here today! I had two cups of drip coffee that were excellent, and the customer service was fantastic. There is a lot of natural light, great ambience in general with high ceilings, exposed brick, and art on the walls, plenty of outlets for laptops, an outdoor patio area, and the wifi works really well. I can't wait to try the cortado, the espresso drinks, and the iced coffee I've come to know and love from frequenting Stein's deli. read more

Nice cappuccino! Wish they had a few more items to choose from during breakfast. Service was a little slow, but the staff was nice and the coffee was great. read more

I started coming here because of the adorable atmosphere, love the exposed brick and high ceilings. Space has a fresh and clean vibe. However given it is a new business it's excusable but there are several things that need improving: 1) prices are expensive, 4$ for an iced tea! 2) music skips (all the time) not sure if they are using CDs or a record player but it is very annoying 3) they only serve real food until 1pm , after that only have a few pastries 4) hours suck, they close at 5pm everyday read more

I'm so excited to have them in the neighborhood, I've been working here a few mornings a week, and they are so welcoming. The coffee is delish, and this morning I tried a breakfast sandwich, which is ridiculously tasty. I can't wait to try more of the food! Its really open and bright in here, and when I do have to take a call for work I step outside where they have a few tables set up. I wish them lots of success! read more
