    I am staying at the Holiday Inn and was looking for a coffee shop near me. I noticed this little shop that had great reviews so decided to give it a try. WOW awesome coffee!! Very high quality coffee. I am very happy to have found this coffee shop. I just bought coffee here, but tomorrow I may try some of their pastries. They look delicious. The owner was very friendly and courteous. I will be back tomorrow. Thank you for the awesome coffee!

    Crescent Counter is a great little coffee shop connected to the hotel. I've been here two days in a row and enjoyed it both times. The first day I ordered a hot caramel latte, which was smooth and really well made. The second day I had the bacon, egg, and cheese croissant--super buttery and flaky, with perfectly seasoned eggs. I also tried a vanilla coffee with milk, and the vanilla syrup had an almost cinnamony flavor that was unexpected and delicious. Definitely a convenient and tasty stop for breakfast or a coffee break.

    Great gourmet coffee and food. They make everything, so it's quality. Nice people and service. Clean atmosphere.

    EXCELLENT customer service and suggestions. The coffee was bold and the flavors were perfect.

    Crescent Counter has moved one block down the street inside the Wyndham Garden Hotel. The ambiance is just as quaint as the last one. This space however feels more vibrant. And the coffee and menu consistently amazing. The owners tell me they have been attempting to claim the business on Yelp to update the address but are running into issues with Yelp.

    This is a really cute spot! There is some bar seating for while you wait for your drinks. The coffee and tea were both good, didn't try the pastries but they looked good. The only bummer was it took quite a long time to get our two to go lattes after ordering (30 minutes) and we were expecting a quicker turnaround, so probably not the best place to come if you are in a hurry. Didn't feel as though the quality was worth the wait for me.

    I found this place on my last morning in NOLA and boy do I wish I'd found it sooner. The interior of the shop is super cute and has plenty of bar style seating for taking a quick call or finishing up that last minute report while having your coffee. I got a cafe au lait, egg and cheese and spinach frittata, almond croissant and a homemade limeade. Everything was FANTASTIC. I literally wanted to return and have 4 more of the croissants because they were so good. They make all the pastries in house and the juices are made that morning. This is the type of coffee shop/community space that I had in walking distance in my own neighborhood in Philly. Definitely bookmarking as my go to spot the next time I come back to NOLA.

    Amazing fresh pastries

    We literally stumbled on this hidden gem while visiting NOLA for a long weekend. Unless you walk by or look it up, you won't see it. It's attached next door to a hotel but the sign is flush on the outside wall. We took a chance based on the Yelp reviews and were so happy we did. It's small inside but very clean and simple. It's a coffee shop buy so much more. It appears everything is made early that morning and they do run out. Only about 10 single seat inside so it appears most take it to go. Here's the kicker! It's not expensive. Their prices were very reasonable. We ordered to coffees and the sausage & cheese roll, blueberry biscuit and the almond croissant. OH MY every bite was pure heaven. We sat down to eat them and let's start with that super flaky blueberry biscuit. Just a hint of sweetness and a glaze that made it scrumptious. The croissant was also flaky and incredibly delicious. The crown jewel was that sausage and cheese roll. Not sure what type of sausage it was but it was the best I've ever had. We ate breakfast for 1/2 of any other restaurant and enjoyed it so much....we came back the next morning.

    Came in for a cappuccino one morning and it was amazing! Everyone here is so friendly and it's a very cute and clean shop that opens early at 7am. I didn't get a pastry but they looked amazing in the little window. They have amazing looking peach croissants when I stopped by. I enjoyed my coffee at the counter and it looked like a lot of regulars coke by in the morning.

    Cappuccino
    Stephie M.

    I asked the barista how long it took them to perfect their cappuccino. They said with a smile "it's not perfected" ...and that's some humility because, daayyuum. Crescent Counter makes their pastries in-house and provides a delightful atmosphere, great playlist, and serves local beans from woman owned and operated business. I may have never come here if I didn't happen to be walking nearby and in need of a coffee post Mardi Gras madness (since I already have my go-to's). But, this place has become top 3 for me!

    I stumbled upon this place and boy am I happy I did. The ambience is super chill and the food was amazing. And by food I mean the blueberry crumble croissant. The staff was nice and the service was magnificent. I'll be back soon!

I was in New Orleans for the 2026 Jazz and Heritage Festival, so my mornings were my own. I travel alone and don't always look for reservations when planning on a meal in this city. Streetcar Café is a perfect choice for what I was looking for: ample breakfast choices, a full bar, and excellent service by Andres. I ordered two poached eggs ($3.50), a single pancake ($4.50), and hash brown potatoes ($4). Totally reasonable pricing, and excellent meals, topped with the Always Summer (Malibu rum, Triple sec, OJ, Pineapple juice, Grenadine, $13). The place filled up pretty quickly after I arrived at around 10 a.m. Andres did an outstanding job of keeping track of my order, and served up the menu items piping hot. Couldn't finish it all, but it was a best-choice for brunch this morning.

The fried 'seafood' platter contains farm-raised imported shrimp, farm-raised imported Swai (a foreign garbage-eating pond-raised fish), and farmed oysters for $26. No thanks. Ok. Switching to gumbo. Uh, their 'gumbo' is a thin broth with virtually no solid ingredients besides white rice. A very few minuscule shreds of chicken and maybe a 6-8 tiny cubes of some tasteless sausage for $17. It did come with a nice biscuit. Be aware of what's being served. Stick to the well-known real-deal restaurants. Not everything is what it claims to be. Nothing real about this ripoff. We'll never go back to this tourist trap.

Though pop-up showers were still lingering, my husband and I decided to take a gamble on courtyard dining--and I am so glad we did! Sheltered under the green umbrellas surrounded by historic brick walls, lush greenery, and rain-kissed citrus trees, the atmosphere was incredibly romantic and peaceful. The courtyard's intimate layout even brought a bit of extra magic to our evening. We sat near another wonderful couple (and their adorable daughter) and became fast friends, sharing laughs and conversation throughout the night. What truly anchored the experience, though, was the incredible service. The staff was remarkably personable, helpful, and welcoming. The dinner itself was excellent from start to finish, showcasing immense culinary skill across every dish. We started with the delicious brussels sprouts and a uniquely seasoned spring/summer gumbo that was unlike any version we've had before (oh, what I would give for the recipe). As for the entrées, the shrimp and grits were phenomenal, and the blackened catfish sandwich with a fresh salad was executed flawlessly...and the bread pudding was fantastic, too! It is rare to find an experience where top-tier hospitality, a breathtaking environment, and great food come together so (seemingly) effortlessly. Café Amélie is an absolute must-visit! We will be back.

We went all in: shrimp and grits that were downright phenomenal (I'm still thinking about them), a goat cheese omelette that was so good it made me question all my past breakfast decisions, and pancakes with berries that tasted like they were made by someone who genuinely cares about your happiness. The coffee? Strong enough to fix your life. The service? Warm, attentive, and somehow psychic--they just knew when we needed refills or another mimosa (which, for the record, felt less like a drink and more like a lifestyle choice). Honestly, this place doesn't just serve breakfast--it gives you a reason to get out of bed. 10/10 would wake up early again... and I do not say that lightly.

I fell into this spot after getting rejected at Brennan's as a potential walk in. Cafe Fleur De Lis was near closing time, but the staff still gave exceptional service. One of the servers overheard me mention a street vendor i wan ted to grab something from and actually saw the vendor while i was eating and i was able to go grab few things. I sincerely appreciate him. The food was very average breakfast food to be honest. My shrimp and grits weren't my favorite. I dislike cheesy grits and they add sour cream and cheese. My dirty chair was gross and I didn't finish it. This place only offers pork which is unfortunate.
