    Tasty grits
    Uriia H.

    This place is located within the Watermark Hotel. They have a decent breakfast menu and also have sime grab and go items. Only a few tables inside but they were a bit too close for me to feel comfortable dining inside...u know..with the covid and all. I ordered a breakfast platter to go. Coffee is free if you are staying at the hotel so that was a nice perk. The breakfast looked pretty small at first glance but it was quite a bit of food. Grits and bacon were cooked nicely. Eggs were overcooked which made them a bit dry. I enjoyed the grilled biscuit as well. Overall a good experience.

    The so called "great coffee."

    In what world is this a "New York deli?" It's not even a bodega. Staying at the Watermark. I'm told this is a great breakfast spot. One of Baton Rouge's best. There is no way. A bacon, egg and cheese on a Costco croissant does not personify greatness. Just because a small coffee shop sells a bagel, doesn't make it a NY deli. Panera sells bagels and there is nothing more opposite to a NY bagel than a white bread, steam, convection oven baked bagel. This is a coffee stand, no different than a Starbucks. Any bagel they serve has come in from a food supplier. There is no kitchen or kettle to boil the bagels. They put lox on a bagel. Okay - so does Einstein Bros. That's not a NY deli or a great bagel. There was nothing wrong with the food. Service was adequate. Price was in line with anyone else. It was open at 6 am, compared to the hotel breakfast that was open at 6:30 am. This is not a "great" breakfast. Coffee from an urn and other reviews say they have great coffee. This is the same stuff you get at a gas station. Even the espresso was from an automated machine, Franke or some derivative thereof. There was no Marzocco present. If there is something amazing here, go forth and find it. I didn't.

    Limited menu

    Walking around my hotel early on a holiday weekend looking for a place to get breakfast and stumbled upon this spot. Due to Hurricane Ida they had a limited menu. I got the oatmeal platter to take to my hotel. It came with fresh fruit and toast and sausage for $10. Expectations were low and I ended up enjoying my breakfast!

    My Salmon Bagel

    The coffee was good, but I think I was charged for a flavor that I didn't receive which is no bueno. Also, I got the salmon bagel and something was missing. I can't tell you what, but it was just okay and I feel like it should have been better. It has Boursin cheese, spinach, everything bagel and smoked salmon so it should have been bomb, but it was just okay. Part of it could have been the missing ambience. I mean, you order at a counter, like in a cafeteria. There was little of no service, and then you sit at one of five tables. One man had to move because of the table situation.

    The hospitality here is so refreshing for a girl from "up north." I stayed in the watermark so I came here for some breakfast eats. The two women I encountered behind the counter were both nice and really helpful. I got the breakfast platter (I think that's the name) with eggs, sausage, grits and a biscuit. The woman even asked if I wanted salt and pepper on my eggs and to hand her a couple of packets. Usually you just have to add the salt and pepper on after the fact which isn't as good as being cooked into the eggs. That's what I call going a step above. I even witnessed another woman go out of her way to grab decaf coffee from the other restaurant since they had already stopped making coffee for the day. My biscuit was delicious, nice and buttery how I like. The grits were nice and creamy, I just wish I had asked for cheese in them. The entire meal was yummy, I was sad I couldn't finish it all. I'll definitely be back whenever I stay at the watermark.

    This place was so good. The service was great and food was rarely priced. Food came out quick and was so amazing. Such a hidden gem in downtown Baton Rouge everyone should try this place.

    Hot ham and cheese

    It is suppose to be on sourdough bread, they put it on cheap white bunny bread so the bread was soggy. Bad customer service as well, 2/10 will not be back.

    Best Chocolate Muffins in BR..

    This is better place to eat at Marriott's WaterMark Autograph Hotel. Their coffee is outstanding and chocolate muffins are deliciously moist. They offer breakfast, sandwiches, salads and lunch items. I love their deli sliced Turkey w/ Swiss Cheese. Can eat in restaurant, but I get my offerings to go.

    Salt and smoke
    Christine W.

    We had high hopes for this place, after reading some of the reviews and talking to some friends that have been here. The place is very small. Only eight tables on the inside and two out. They offer counter service and a grab and go refrigerator. We went for breakfast on a Sunday. Breakfast options are limited. Bagels, bagels sandwiches, one wrap and a couple breakfast plates. They also offer fresh baked pastry, which was sold out before we got there. The only gluten free options are the two breakfast plates (one was oatmeal the other eggs) and parfaits. I ordered the Salt and smoke which is a salmon breakfast sandwich on a bagel. I was surprised when I was not asked what kind of bagel I wanted. I also ordered a cappuccino. Hubby got an everything bagel with salmon added, water and a wakey bakey. (We had a 225 deal to use). We sat down and waited for our food. Our food was delivered after a ten minute wait. Kind of long considering there was only one other table ahead of us. And it came without my cappuccino. The server went back and made my cappuccino and brought it out. Our take on the food. The salt and smoke was not what I expected. There was plenty of salmon. The onion bagel fresh. A small smear of onion cream cheese and spinach. I think it needed tomato, onion and capers to give it some flavor. The croissant and bacon was overdone on the wakey bakey. The egg patty seemed to be premade based on the texture and appearance. Skinny on the place. Service is slow. I only got my cappuccino after asking for it when our food arrived. The prices are high. $3 for bottled water. $9 for smoked salmon bagel sandwich. (Hint. Order a bagel with smear and add salmon and you'll pay $6. Unless you think having spinach is worth an additional $3). The wakey bakey is not a bad deal for $6.

    Milford's is the deli associated with the Watermark Hotel on 3rd Street. It opens to both the street and hotel lobby. They have a number of grab-and-go selections for those in a hurry, but I think their signature sandwiches are where it is at. I'm a fan of the hot sandwiches, like their signature sandwich, The Milford! The Brisket Sandwich is also a hearty choice. Reuben's are also a tasty option. Sandwiches come with a pickle spear and a bag of chips of your choice. You can also get sides like slaw and potato salad. There is even a Matzo Ball soup option. I can't speak to the breakfast options from personal experience, but they do have them. Bagels and fixings are a tasty option I saw on their menu. The service is prompt and friendly. They seem to be a good choice for stopping in for a quick meal while downtown.

    PJs is one of Downtown's original coffee shops. This coffee company started out in New Orleans, so…read moreit is Louisiana-local. They are conveniently located at the corner of Convention and Lafayette Streets, right by the beautiful Lafayette Park. They are by the Shaw Center for the Arts, and two quality hotels. They are near it all downtown! Coffee and teas are the main attraction of course. I love their lattes year round, and in summer there are the beautiful velvet ices and iced coffees. I like to check out the rotating specials, which often are interesting and different. Last time I visited they were featuring honey lavender drinks, which make a most excellent velvet ice. They always have some nice baked goods on hand, from savory to sweet. There are also some other nice snacks on hand. My personal favorite is the dark chocolate covered espresso beans! The interior is cozy, and has a great view of the outdoors. There is a small courtyard outside with outdoor tables, but I think if one wants to be outdoors the Shaw Center Courtyard or Lafayette Park are the places to be.

    The location was across from our hotel and that was the only good thing about this place…read more First we had no idea where the Barista was- we waited quite a bit- we knew there was someone because there were about 3 police officers with coffee sitting at the tables. When the guy finally came out- Super unfriendly and the coffee and drink were mid- and it appeared the guy working was just done with us- but he was sure nice to the local police officers that left a little before we did as his whole demeanor changed. If your hotel is surrounded by hotels....guess what you are probably going to get a lot of out of non locals and maybe what a big chunk of your profits come from-be nicer and make better drinks.
