The Vintage - New Orleans, LA…read more The Vintage on Magazine Street was our very first food stop in New Orleans, and it turned out to be a great way for my wife and me to start our trip. From the moment we walked in, I really liked the atmosphere. The place has a cool, relaxed New Orleans vibe with a little bit of an upscale café feel without being overly fancy. It's the kind of spot where you can come in, sit down, enjoy some good food and drinks, and just take your time. Of course, we couldn't come to New Orleans and not start things off with beignets! We decided to go with the Fancy Beignet Flight, which gave us a chance to try several different flavors. We got the raspberry, s'mores, and Chantilly. They came out looking almost too good to eat, covered in powdered sugar with all the different fillings and toppings. Almost... because we definitely ate them! They were warm, sweet, messy in the best possible way, and a fun introduction to our New Orleans food adventure. For my meal, I ordered the Italian Panini with the truffle Parmesan fries. The sandwich was packed with meat, cheese, and flavor. Looking at that cross-section, they definitely weren't being stingy with the fillings! The bread was toasted nicely, and everything worked well together. The truffle fries were another highlight. They had plenty of seasoning and Parmesan and paired perfectly with the sandwich. I also grabbed a small iced mocha, which went really well with the food and especially the beignets. One thing I really enjoyed about The Vintage was the atmosphere. The interior has a lot of character, from the marble tables and vintage-style flooring to the bar and pastry display. It feels like a place that belongs on Magazine Street. It was comfortable enough that we didn't feel rushed and could just enjoy being in New Orleans together. The service was good during our visit, and everything came together for a really enjoyable first meal in the city. Our bill came to around $48 after tax and tip for the two of us, and considering we had a sandwich, upgraded fries, drinks, and the beignet flight, I thought it was a good experience for the money. Most importantly, this place gave my wife and me a great start to our New Orleans trip. When your first stop includes a loaded Italian panini, truffle Parmesan fries, iced coffee, and a whole flight of beignets, you know the trip is starting off right! Definitely a place I would visit again. Great food, great atmosphere, and a great first taste of New Orleans. 5 stars from us!

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!

Absolutely lived up to the hype. Beignets were soooooooooooo good. Customer service was incredibly…read morefriendly. Little hard to understand but they're doing their absolute best. Ambiance is amazing but also not so much lol. We had a shirtless and homeless drug addict next to us for about 3 minutes and no one seemed concerned enough to ask him to leave. He had been talking to his imaginary friend. Just wanting to enjoy breakfast, I did have a fun topic to explain to my kids. The bennys were delicious like I said. Hot and ready to eat. It was worth the walk! YOU NEED CASH!!!! They have an ATM there but it's still an inconvenience. I'm going to leave a 4 star for 2 reasons. 1. It's 2026....take cards lol. I like the old school vibes, but it's a pain and cost me more money to get cash. 2. At least ask the homeless dude to leave....I'm trying to eat and he's 6 feet from my family and tweaking out. It's your property, you CAN ask them to leave. It's a lack of interest by the business. Other than that, I had a fantastic time. 100% recommend.

They heated up the savory pastry, which I appreciate. The coffee was good too and not burnt or sour. I loved that they had bread samples too, I would def buy a loaf of olive bread. Has WiFi and about 3-4 tables. Pretty small place inside. Has some outdoor seating. Overall, I'd come back for a quick bite or catch up with a friend. Parking: free limited on street

It is probably my top 3 breakfasts in the city and yes, I got another hot Irish coffee - which was just as delicious as it was a few years ago. It is perfect and you MUST try it! The service is always great, an at home feeling, laid back and genuine. They have many options on the menu including healthy breakfast items, which is what I needed a few months ago when we dined here. They also have their yummy, rich calroific options as well. So go crazy if you like. The ambience is true New Orleans, wooden floors, high ceilings, art on the walls, french doors, and great service I can't wait to come back and of course, I will get that Irish coffee!
