    The ambiance here is unmatched--the music and decor create such a relaxed, chill vibe. Plus, the service is incredibly fast and efficient. To be honest, the coffee is just okay (not the best, but definitely not the worst), but the atmosphere makes up for it. It's a fantastic spot to grab a quick pick-me-up if you're hitting the contemporary art museum!

    This is a really nice and aesthetic coffee shop! The service was really friendly and helpful! I wished that the coffee was a bit stronger and more flavorful, but it was still pretty good! There's only street parking available. I'd definitely come back for the vibes.

    This coffee shop is a gem. I love the customer service and each time the hospitality is amazing! It feels like an intimate boutique coffee shop. The iced matcha latte was creamy and great! I also enjoyed the croissant and it was the perfect bite before heading back into the office. I recommend anyone to visit Mr Wolf Espresso!

    Easy to miss - tucked inside a contemporary art building that doesn't open until 11! Serves mainly drinks. Has just a few pastries, and they ran out by 9:30am. Don't go looking for breakfast. Drink menu is standard and posted on a glass partition so hard to see and read. The coffee was great - we had a decaf latte and iced vanilla latte. However - the wait is long. With only one barista hand making each drink we waited ~10 solid minutes. Just plan ahead. There are no other coffee shops in the area so they do get busy. Fortunately it's also a little book shop so you can browse the books while you wait.

    I am so happy I finally checked out Mr. Wolf Espresso & Books! This place is definitely a gem in the city. It's a beautiful, Black-owned space that simply oozes art, culture, and soul from every corner. I wanted to sit there all day. The vibe is immaculate: it's effortlessly cool and welcoming, featuring great music, an inspiring atmosphere, and a fantastic focus on the local creative scene (they showcase local authors, which is wonderful!). If you're looking for a place to relax, read, or just soak up some genuine energy, this is it. I ordered a Chai Latte with sugar-free caramel added. Honestly, it tasted like Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal milk in the best way possible. It was perfectly spiced, creamy, and I didn't get an artificial aftertaste from the sugar-free syrup. They truly know how to craft a perfect drink. Great service, incredible aesthetic, and phenomenal coffee. I can't wait to go back and try something else! Support this local business!

    During my trip to New Orleans, I was lucky enough to visit Mr Wolf twice with my coworkers. Both times, I really enjoyed my lattes. The vibe itself is a curated, and cool. Not surprising since it is located inside of a museum. The staff were very friendly, and made each of our drinks perfectly.

    The coffee bags on the walls with paintings of farmers and bulls add an authentic feel to the place. Come inside the shop next to the art gallery and you'll see a cozy spot with friendly people. I got the strawberry hibiscus tea and it is great for a summer drink.

    Welcome!

    A quaint and unassuming cafe in the Contemporary Arts Center that introduced me to my first Flat White

    Central space and coffee bar.

    Good vibes. Coffee shop and art gallery. Located inside the large warehouse building, the space is quaint and modern, but spacious. The coffee is good y'all. The brown sugar iced latte tastes like a coffee cake. They also have pastries.The barista was welcoming and very attentive on both occasions we stopped in. The vibe is relaxed with music and art. Restrooms are in the lobby which is slightly inconvenient but it based on the layout of the building. They offer WiFi and accept credit cards.

    The whole experience is a 5/5. The staff is very welcoming and the decor is a rotating art exhibit. I had an iced salted caramel latte and a warm almond croissant and enjoyed both.

    An art book and Americano

    What a surprise delight! When exploring a new city, I always head to coffee shops and bookstores, so to find one that is both is a bonus. I sat at a table by the window and sipped an Americano while reading through a book on Women and Art. And speaking of art, the artistic decor is such treat! The number of books is very limited and the coffee is great!

    Super rich and creamy espresso deep cacao flavor and just the right level of bitterness. Magic in a (little) cup!

    TL;DR - Despite how popular and what a tourist stop this is, you still HAVE to grab your beignets…read moreand coffee here, at least once. You do that, you may be stopping more than once. Longer: So I was a little hesitant to go to CDM, because it's such the tourist stop and the first joint anyone mentions when they say "beignet". But this was our first stop, morning of first day. The beignets are piled in sugar, they are warm, crunchy and crisp on the outside and soft, warm and delicate inside. I gotta tell you, the texture is just a little different than Cafe Beignet, the Four Seasons, and even the other CDM in the park we tried a few days later. To me, this is the best one. Now, as a coffee person, their black coffee is strong, rich, and a good compliment to the real show - the beignets. But I did not pick up on nearly as much chicory in their chicory coffee as, say, Cafe Beignet's version. Also, I have to let you know the other location in the big park serves a non-chicory version (in addition to NOLA chicory) that is head and shoulders the best coffee we had in New Orleans. But this is the joint. As a bonus, it's colorful, has consistently great street musicians, and has lots of walkable sites as you struggle to waddle around after too many beignets. Gotta go!

    This is a must-do if it is your first time in NOLA. But are the beignets tasty? Only if you like…read moresugary powder over fried dough! Don't be deterred if you see a long line - that's for takeout only. The tables are first come, first served. Portions are quite large so good to share a plate (3 beignets) between 2 ppl. Service can take a while if they happen to be taking a break (that was the case for us). And you are expected to pay when the orders are delivered (cash only). Make sure to tip extra because it is one tough job.

    Still a New Orleans Gem - Visitor since 2018!…read more I'm updating my review as of April 2026 because it's important for visitors to know that The Vintage has absolutely "still got it." My last review was in 2020, and I'm happy to report that the quality and atmosphere remain top notch. Whether you are looking for a morning pick up or an evening wind-down, this spot covers all the bases. Their beignets and coffee are a classic must have, and I can personally vouch for their Americano. It is consistently well made and delicious. They also have a great selection of beer and cocktails if you're looking for something a bit stronger. What really sets this place apart, though, is the hospitality. We have always had great interactions with the staff, but a special shout out goes to Jimmy, whom we met this past week. He was incredibly kind and hospitable, truly making us feel right at home. Jimmy if you are reading this, THANK YOU!! If you want a spot that feels authentic, welcoming, and consistently excellent, put The Vintage at the top of your list!

    Cute cafe! l love the decor. The furniture is very cute & standout ottoman piano did look vintage…read more This is a walk up & order at the bar venue Your are given a number to your table. The menu has many choices. I ordered the firecracker shrimp with side arugula salad. The shrimp was yummy the salad too but expected more on the salad maybe cucumber or tomatoes over all for just having cheese on Arugula with dressing was ok. I paired it with the shrimp and it was tasty! According to the hop on/off bus the beignets & champagne are the hit at this cafe. The bartender made a wonderful cocktail with champagne & it was delicious! The spot is dog friendly & in a cute little restaurant/bar row & shops area.
