Still a New Orleans Gem - Visitor since 2018! 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! read more

Cute cafe! l love the decor. The furniture is very cute & standout ottoman piano did look vintage. 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. read more

Came here to try some different beignets and these missed the mark for me. I prefer my beignets on the sweeter and slightly doughier side. While the beignets were big in size, they were airy and blend once you bite into them. If it wasn't for the powdered sugar, they would hardly be edible. They do have specialty beignets on the menu and maybe I should have tried one of them instead of the traditional. On the plus side, they do offer food, have a full service bar that I would maybe try another time. read more

Stopped in for a glass of brut and a house specialty beignet, and I was not disappointed!! I did miss their happy hour, but the pricing for happy hour seems great. There is plenty of seating around at tables, but I chose to sit at the bar. The banana pudding beignet paired perfectly with my brut! I would absolutely come here again for some snackies or to try some of their other menu items. read more

Great coffee shop on Magazine St! The inside is super cozy, has plenty of seating, and is filled with antiques. This place is absolutely buzzing with energy from coffee, beignets, and boozy drinks. There was a brief 5-10 minute line by the cashier. You order at the cashier and then someone will bring your food order later. The service was pretty efficient but we didn't get any silverware with our beignets. I tried the Nola iced coffee half sweet here and the raspberry filled beignets. I liked how cute the beignet flight option was. The raspberry filled one was delicious with plenty of powdered sugar and the tart raspberry filling was a great combination. The coffee is a must try too. read more

Came here for a family brunch, and found the food to be really good (I REALLY reccomend getting the egg + tomato dish), but the service a bit disorganized. Our order was forgotten multiple times and dishes late to come out. They did however, comp the late items, so I suspect that this is not typical for them. The property is quite beautiful - we sat outside in the courtyard, but would actually recommend sitting inside, as the place is decorated beautifully. read more

I love the concept, the atmosphere and the wine. I just wish there were literally one vegan food option. The Vintage has been on my list for years now. I knew I'd be taken by the antique soda fountain/pharmacy charm and I was right. As soon as I walked in, I wanted to spend the rest of the afternoon here. They have coffee and espresso. They have wine. They even have a generous daily happy hour, 8-11am and 3-6 pm. They have food. But if you have dietary restrictions, you're going to need to eat elsewhere. It's a bit of a disappointment, I'll be honest. I'll definitely be back for a quick happy hour drink and will recommend The Vintage to my friends that are visiting because they're always looking for a place to get beignets and you can't get a cooler spot for these than The Vintage. read more

My chai latte was lovely so I would have given them 5 stars but for the simple and tragic fact that they don't offer decaf. Some of us just can't have caffeine due to health stuff--in my case a heart condition--and it always reads as somewhat snobbish to me when cafes do this. Like, "oh, you don't want caffeine? Better just not drink coffee." I like the taste. *shrugs* Anyway, great chai. And kudos for having more than one alternative milk, too! They have a very nice, quiet sitting area out back in case the main area is too busy. read more

One of my favorite places . It's right on magazine street uptown. They offer outdoor seating/indoor seating. I love to people watch so I try and sit outside when I visit. The last time I was there I got the fries, beignets and champagne. They do have a menu with shareables, breakfast, flatbreads and sandwiches if you're really hungry. Overall I highly recommend. It's a cool spot . read more

Listen, you had me at beignet and then you had me part 2 at specialty beignets~ Swung by this place on a Saturday around noon and was able to snag a cute little patio table in the back. It is on the smaller side but perfect for a nice sunny day with a little breeze. You order at the counter then grab a number/table and I was definitely enticed into a frozen cafe au lait when I saw the machine up front. I was also on a beignet mission so that was certainly what I was going to get -- the fancy beignet flight is 1 smore, 1 matcha, and 1 raspberry but I opted for 2 matcha, 1 raspberry. Order came out in a timely manner and service was so sweet in grabbing me a box when I realized there was 0 chance of me eating all these in one sitting. The beignets were delicious, crispy, sweet warm -- I will say raspberry won over matcha because the matcha ones didn't quite hit the earthy flavor. It was almost too much of a roasted matcha/barley flavor. Would I still eat it and did I still eat it? Absolutely. The frozen cafe au lait was a miss for me, but I think it's just personal preference in terms of how much chicory you like in your drink. Next time, I'd probably do an iced vanilla latte like my basic self, but all in all a great spot with a variety of breakfast/brunch items and delicious beignets! read more

Great little place. The option are limited, but very good. We had little brunch with some iced coffee. It wasn't expensive. Just a solid little place. Oh the dog is the mascot read more

Original Beignet taste! Small cafe on magazine street that you've gotta have. Stopped here to just chill and try the famous beignets. Little did we know that this cafe has one of the original taste of beignets. Our bus tour driver mentioned it after the fact and we were glad we stopped by. The place is quite small but they have a full bar and very good truffle fries too. Service was really good and we want to come back to try their other stuff. read more

We stopped by here to have a taste of beignets a bit away from the tourist areas. This was recommended to us by a waiter at Napoleon House, who suggested it to round out our beignet experience in New Orleans. We opted for the beignet flight, but our order got a little twisted and we received it in a to go box. I was most excited about the pear and brie beignet, but was disappointed. The brie was cold and firm, not warm and melty as I had thought it would be. The pears were small and chopped up on top of the beignet, so overall it was not a cohesive or enjoyable bite. The raspberry beignet and the smores beignet were fine, but nothing special. The restaurant itself was large with plenty of seating space. read more

A cute little cafe wrapped in the heart of Magazine street! Absolutely loved the nice lounge vibe with the huge sitting area. My friend and I had a nice time here this morning, eating our beignets and chatting. Pet friendly cafe spot! The food however was alright. I got the matcha and s'mores specialty beignets and they were just good. The matcha honestly did not have a "true" matcha flavor which was a little disappointing. However, the beignets itself was great! Great texture but I feel like the matcha didn't mash well. S'mores was also just okay, nothing special in my opinion. The creme(?) filling inside seemed a little overpowering and sweet when I cut into it. read more

Probably the worst bite out of anything we had during our New Orleans trip. It wasn't terrible, but I feel justified saying it was bad. We got the "fancy" beignet flight. The selection was raspberry filled, s'mores, and matcha filled. Tell me why it took over 30 minutes for the beignets to come out. We thought they forgot about us. The presentation of the beignets is great, but that's about the only positive thing I can say about it. The raspberry beignet was overly sweet. The s'mores was super messy and just ok, somehow the marshmallow goo (not fluff, it was like liquid) didn't taste very marshmallow-y. The matcha was probably the worst one. There was zero matcha taste to the cream. It tastes like plain cream that was dyed green or something. The interior of the cafe is pretty and it's great for taking shelter from the heat, I'll give it that. read more

Local favorite beignets, coffee, and adult beverages on Magazine St. Location Looking for the perfect beignets place and a safe distance away from the French Quarter, we had a few NOLA locals recommend this spot as the best place to get beignets. There are seats outside, indoors, and a patio outback. I liked the repurposed piano as an ottoman. This place gets busy but we snagged a seat close when you enter. Big groups come in here so I would recommend finding a seat first if you can secure one: Food/drinks: We were coming for breakfast. There is the breakfast biscuit and the vintage breakfast. The biscuit is bacon, poached egg, artisan cheese, and arugula. The vintage breakfast has cream grits, chunky bacon, and cheddar cheese. We also ordered the fancy beignets flight Matcha, s'mores, and raspberry. These were tasty to share but the snore and raspberry were too sugary. I liked the matcha flavor but sticking with the standard beignets may be a better option. We also got a seasonal latte, the honey bee latte. Service: You have to order in the back of the restaurant so there is options to look over what you want. They also have a water cooler to get a glass of water but it can get congested with the line of people. I would say that there was a friendly and relaxed vibe. Overall: Beignets were great. I like the simple breakfast options and the decor was very attractive. I would be interested in the late night cocktails on a future visit. read more

Absolutely loved the vibe of this place. It was the perfect combination of charming and fancy with a retro/vintage touch. We all got a round of beignets and it was great that they had single serving options. The beignets were light and fluffy. We also got the pimento cheese dip and truffle fries. We demolished everything. It was all so tasty! read more

Loved the Raspberry filled Beignet with a cup of Chicory coffee, and the service and atmosphere were outstanding.

My girls and I came here and had a TIME. They have a breakfast happy hour from 8-11am where all the drinks are $7! Baby! Them French 75s went so crazy in the best way. The shrimp and grits were OK. Needed more seasoning by NOLA's standards but we're good to soak up everything. We also tried the beignet flight which I thought was so cool. They had a matcha beignet, raspberry and a blueberry cheesecake blueberry and those were so yummy. I will definitely be back. The concept of a beignet flight and happy hour really blew my mind. This is now a staple in our girls trip itinerary. 10/10. I have a full review on my TT: verymuchoutside_ read more

Such a chill spot on Magazine! It's in a great location with lots of open space so it doesn't feel cramped if there are a lot of people. The ambience is nice, a little dark and not too loud. I don't think I could study here though! I went here to catch up with a friend, and it was a good vibe! The latte was the perfect amount of sweetness, and the beignets were so fresh! I tried my friend's specialty beignet, and it felt like it was lacking in flavor. I'm still partial to Cafe due Monde though. The Vintage is pet friendly and lots of people brought dogs into the cafe! The service was ok, the staff were cordial but nothing to go crazy about. The place also felt like it could be cleaner! It was good, but not sure if I'd come back! read more

First off, I absolutely love Magazine Street as a whole, and the Vintage is right there at its core. If I lived in NOLA more often I'd probably choose right there. Pretty sure I've already given a review here but I went back again yesterday and needed to talk about how amazing the pistachio beignet was because I want to be able to have this flavor every time I'm back. If I did that along with the blueberry cheesecake and/or raspberry every time, I'd be (well, maybe sugar high) satisfied completely on my desserts fix for a month. The boozy coffees and the espresso martinis are also elite, naturally since it's a coffee shop. The interior is classic prohibition era style, and the bartenders are always the friendliest. I wish I could take this with me everywhere, but hey that's what brings you back to the city! read more

Good foods, good customer service, great beignets! My husband and I were in town for the weekend and we heard about the beignet flight at The Vintage. My husband is a simple guy when it comes to flavors, but I'm a bit more adventurous. We got an order of the traditional beignets and I got a Matcha beignet in addition. Matcha beignet was great! However, the traditional beignets were untouchable. We also had a Panini and flatbread, which were also great. I love the fact that they offer water cups without having to purchase water behind the counter. Drinks from the bar are strong and good! Now, the bathrooms have seen better days. And for my mom's and dad's (aunts, uncles and grandparents) or whoever may be needing to change the baby, there are no changing tables so you have to get creative. Other than that, beautiful location and a great time! read more

Strange when you walk in. There's a cocktail bar in front and a coffee bar in the back. You order and pay there then you get a picture of an old style celebrity to put on your table where someone runs your food out to you. You carry your own drinks. Except for that, no table service. There are a few seats out front (one was being used by an old man selling parachord bracelets) and some seats in the rear which were crowded, kinda falling apart, a loud air conditioning unit humming loudly. (Not welcoming at all). We sat out front and the beignets were fine, but I was disappointed that the special one we got tasted like the raspberry jam was a gel and store bought, not fresh. I will try other places for breakfast read more

Super cute place. Plenty of seating to choose from. Parking isn't too hard to find even though it's on Magazine- maybe it depends when you go. We ordered 12pc cinnamon sugar beignets and 12pc powdered sugar beignets. Avocado toast with bacon and egg on top. And a savory beignet with bacon gravy! We got iced almond + vanilla latte and iced mocha latte. After we checked out the barista/cashier overheard my boyfriend's woes on finding out they have cold foam and me telling me we already paid and we can get it next time and offered to add on the cold foam at no extra cost! That was very nice and made my boyfriend very happy. I'd definitely come back. read more

I think it's really cool that this place is part cafe, part wine bar. The decor was really fun and I think it would transition perfectly from day to night. We came in here for brunch and liked everything we ordered. We ordered traditional beignets, egg bites, apple brie flatbread (minus the bacon), and a bbq chicken pressed sandwich. To drink, we got chicory coffee and a chai. RE: chicory coffee, It was my first time trying it here and I really enjoyed it and proceeded it to order it throughout my trip. Also, the service was quick and friendly. I would definitely recommend checking it out and I am curious to see what it's like in the evenings. read more

Late one night, I craved a sweet and savory beignet. Determined to find a restaurant that could deliver, I embarked on a search mission. Just when I thought all hope was lost, I stumbled upon The Vintage! With a quick hop on the next streetcar, my search party and I made our way to the restaurant. We settled into the cozy bar, surrounded by vintage elements, and eagerly awaited our order. When it finally arrived, we couldn't resist indulging in the delightful flight of beignets--raspberry, matcha (my favorite), and s'mores--alongside the delectable gator bites. If you're in the mood for this sweet specialty in New Orleans, The Vintage is the place to be (and probably the only one in the area)! read more

Pretty relaxing and big establishment. Ordered the beignet flight. Nothing special. I think it is a bit overrated since it cost 3x as much as the regular beignet. The three beignets are the matcha, raspberry and smore. I preferred the raspberry, then the smore, and lastly the matcha. The matcha lacked flavor. The smore is too sweet. But the raspberry is like a regular jelly donut. Cheese and cup. Tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwich. My girls love this dish. read more

Very casual spot with comfy chairs and low tables. Came here for beignets but they offer a whole lot more from breakfast to light lunch and late night snacks. You order at the bar or with barista and they call your name when your order is ready. Bartenders/barista and very nice, outgoing and pleasant with smiles on their faces! Like I mentioned before I came for fancy beignets so that what I got. I did expect bigger selection but they only have 3-4 fancy beignet options and of course traditional covered in confectioners sugar. Flavor of the day were s'mores, matcha, raspberry and blueberry cream cheese. Fancy beignet flight comes with 3 but you can pick which flavors you prefer. Since I don't fancy matcha I got blueberry, s'mores and raspberry. They were all delish, very soft and fluffy with plenty of filling inside especially blueberry one yum! In this area around this place there are a lot of other stops to check out too not just food places but little boutiques too. read more

What a cute little spot. I loved the bar/coffee shop vibes with some food and beverages. We got some lemonade, macchiato, beignets bites, and a chocolate chip cookie.

Everyone working there was super friendly! read more

We stopped by the vintage after a day of walking around Magazine Street for their beignets. It is a self-serve cafe/bar and we didn't have trouble finding seating or getting our order taken. We ordered the mini beignets, half regular and half cinnamon sugar. The beignets tasted great, although some were not as fluffy as I'd hoped. My friend and I preferred the regular ones to the cinnamon ones. If I come back again, I'd like to try the regular beignets! read more
