Ambience is nice, and staff seem nice enough. The real let down here was the quality and the taste of the food itself, which was quite frankly abysmal. My friend had gotten the croissant breakfast sandwich and I had gotten the bagel breakfast sandwich, both of which were dry, unseasoned and had spoiled tasting eggs. If you’re looking for a cafe in nola, I would steer clear of this place.

Ordered a caramel frappe and when I tell you it was so disgusting, everyone I worked with asked what was in my coffee because of the color it looked spoiled! Employees are very dry and unwelcoming and they could obviously see it was my first time ordering there. After receiving my coffee I didn’t get a thank you come again or anything, never going back!

Cute atmosphere, quick staff and warm service! First time coming and will have to come back. Frozen coffee is a must!

The person we worked with was not very nice and a bit snobby. They ask to see your vaccine card just to eat inside. I'm vaccinated. I think this is a little overreaching for the restaurant to ask for my health records just to eat. So, if you do not show your vaccine card, you are a second-class citizen. This is the only place in New Orleans I have been to that asked to see your card.

Stopped in for breakfast and recommend Smoked salmon and the bagel sandwich! Both were awesome! Also New Orleans style iced coffee was a favorite for me.

Great breakfast sandwich, I had Bagel sandwich and my wife had the Mushroom muffin. Both were fantastic and the fresh juice was super. We will definitely come back tomorrow.

My wife and I enjoyed our lunch. She tries to eat gluten free and the bread for her turkey sandwich was great tasting. I had the curry chicken salad sandwich on a croissant - very good. My wife had the Bloody Mary and thought that it was one of the best she has tasted.Service was friendly.

Adorable little place that was super close to our hotel, and the food was good. The food would've tasted better if it hadn't been soured by people who acted like we were inconveniencing them. I felt barked at to go sit down while I was attempting to look at their coffee selection after ordering. Then when I didn't notice the number that I was apparently supposed to take I felt barked at by a different person. Was it me? Maybe, but I see that at least one other person had a similar experience. Maybe they don't know that they're close to a few hotels and that they're likely to get people who haven't been there before? Maybe someone should tell them. Anyway, the croissant sandwich was good, the blueberry muffin was lovely, and the cafe au lait was quite tasty. And the busboy was extremely pleasant as we strolled by, so they get points for his gratitude.

The mushroom muffin is superb. Fresh muffin, tasty arugula, and the salmon bagel is a must... add cucumber and tomato thank me later.

Mushroom egg muffin was delicious! The mushroom patty was neat and there was a perfect amount of whipped feta and a red pepper sauce. Will definitely stop here again.
