Cherry Coffee Roasters

Stopped by this eclectic and warm coffee shop on a spur of the moment looking for a great place to get work done and it was a wonderful surprise! Across the street from a park, it is welcoming and has lots of parking. Inside, it really has a native, New Orleanian feel. I love the "Let her have it" tip jar that is a reference to an iconic commercial anyone here in the 80s or before would know of. These little additions in the style give it a sense of place rooted in the neighborhood and the city. The coffee, tea and food were excellent. I had a breakfast sandwich that was absolutely perfect. It was filling and healthy and gave just the right amount of being full. It was freshly made and again, perfect. The service was wonderful and the wifi is strong. It seems to have a good base of regulars. Cozy, it has ample space and the table are arranged so that you can easily maneuver. Outside there is a patio and if you are compassionate of others, you may smoke outside. It is a cute and relaxing respite that kind of takes you out of the the everyday with its whimsy in the decorations and the cute cards they use for your orders. I love the interior decor. I would have sat at the velvety bench but my seat at the computer bar was good. The leather seats are unique and fit the space. I would love to visit again and get a place at the window. I needed a plug but next time I will charge before for optimal choices. I wholeheartedly recommend this coffee shop. The music (not too loud and not too soft) was themed to the late sixties/early seventies (soft rock?) and made me remember so many people I used to know in the city. All in all, I think it is good for work or meetings, sitting with a friend and catching up or being a go-to coffee spot. I am happy I decided to try something new and got a lot done there. It is a friendly environment and again... Easy to park and it is free parking. Definitely visit again and again!

Local & lovely - this coffee shop has a cozy atmosphere as soon as you enter. Their cappuccino is dry and delicious. Their avocado toast is flavorful & filling. Lots of locals working and meeting up with friends.

I love this place! Where to start... My latte was perfect, avocado toast was delicious. Staff are helpful, kind, and happy to be there. A lot of other customer appear to be doing work, which I always find motivating as I'm trying to focus. And very importantly, lighting is gentle (you don't feel like you're in a hospital cafeteria) and still plenty bright thanks to the giant windows. Lovely spot!!

5️⃣⭐ By far the best coffee in NOLA. Cherry is a third wave local roaster and coffee shop that values expertly roasted beans, house made syrups, and the art of good coffee making. Excellent food options from breakfast burritos to fresh bakery items. Coffee is well roasted, perfectly extracted, and good ratios. If you're a true coffee lover that loves the art of coffee, this has been needed in NOLA for a long time. Great service. Great ambience (only recommendation is that they play music more suited for the ambiance of the room and not spice girls or Shania Twain). Great for. Really great coffee.

1000% best coffee shop in NOLA!! Cozy, full of natural light, great drinks and tasty food. Plenty of tables and seats. Mostly locals and never too crowded. I absolutely adore this place, come here all the time. I only wish they were open later!! (they close early afternoon most days)

I LOVE this place. It's also women owned which is a bonus. Good espresso, great pour overs. They roast the coffee themselves, and they have another location in Gretna (?). Their roasts are medium ish to light. The baristas are very skilled and know what they are doing for sure. I ordered a cortado, a Sakicha pourover (it was SO freaking good!!!) and a small Satsuma Spice latte (the syrup was so cozy and warming I loved it so so much. It was like an orangey spice flavor). I love that they serve coffee traditionally, in the traditional size and style. They have simple syrup available to put in your coffee. They also have outdoor seating. I cannot recommend this place enough guys!! They also have a point system. They also serve alcoholic coffee drinks (like espresso martinis) and coffee flights.

People say it's the best coffee in New Orleans. I think it might be. The vibes here are definitely perfect coffee shop weekend vibes. The prices are fair. The cold brew is excellent but I don't think the seasonal drinks are worth the price. But you know what was AMAZING? THE COOKIES 🍪🍪🍪

I used to live next to this gem, and after 3 years exploring hundreds of other shops, I have not found better espresso than from Cherry. Their Lagniappe Blend is to die for. I highly recommend buying a bag to make at home as well. They are the best beans I have ever bought.

Loved the vibes and coffee! We stumbled upon Cherry while we went to the dog park. Kaitlyn pulled me a really great shot over the weekend, I liked it so much I got a bag of the beans! Will definitely come back.

Cute neighborhood coffee shop Has limited menu Very chill Food lfresh Frittata very tasty not an overwhelming bacon taste, service with noticed green salad excellent Strawberry turnover good but not a lot of filling Banana nut was moist good flavor BLT sandwich fresh veggies bread excellent aioli adds a nice spicy flavor Excellent bonus support local business 4.5/5.0

My favorite weekend coffee shop. Great lattes with the perfect amount of foam. The place is really cute as well--decent amount of space inside with tables and couches as well as a nice outdoor patio. Highly recommend!

Great vibes, good food, good coffee, cute atmosphere. I had the avocado toast and it was very good

I recently visited Cherry Coffee Roasters, and I must say, it was a delightful experience. I ordered the delectable pumpkin pie latte, and it was a flavor explosion in a cup. The combination of rich coffee and the warm, comforting taste of pumpkin pie was a true treat for my taste buds. What truly stood out, though, was the top-class service. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making me feel right at home in this cute neighborhood on Laurel Street. It's the kind of service that leaves a lasting impression. Cherry Coffee Roasters' location is a real gem, practically halfway between Tulane University and the French Quarter, making it a convenient stop for both locals and visitors. If you're looking for a cozy spot with excellent coffee and exceptional service, Cherry Coffee Roasters on Laurel Street is definitely worth a visit.

Beautiful space and amazing service! The coffee is good and breakfast options are yummy. Right by the dog park so we love grabbing a coffee and snack before!

One of the cutest coffee shops I've ever been to! The inside has a wide range of seating options with some really comfy ones, and there is a cute outdoor patio too. It's definitely a great space to study or work, with wifi and outlets. The coffee itself was delicious, and they offer a wide variety of single-origin and blends, and an espresso tasting.

I went out of my way to find this place cuz some other coffe shops use their coffee and it's the best! It's not a fancy place and a little off the beaten path near tchoupitoulasnin the audubon area. It was very popular on a Sunday morning! While in line, I discovered a new refreshing drink, I believe it's called a lemon spritzer. Veryrefreshing and delicious for summer! You gotta try this coffee by Cherry!!

Inconsistent coffee. I guess it all depends on who's making the drinks. I came one morning and my latte was excellent. Like one of the best lattes I've had in the city. Because it was so good, I came back the next day for another latte. It was lukewarm and didn't taste right. Super disappointed. Also I asked for it to go, but it was served in a cup to stay. No biggie, I poured it into the small to go cup and it didn't even fill it up half way.... Felt like I was scammed. And their small lattes are $6.... Not cheap. I won't be back.

So the first couple of times they were on vacation but when I finally had brunch there, we were very happy. Lots of free parking in a cool, but not overrun area. Two of the barista/cashiers are very kind. Good menu esp for a place with no cooking. Great mix of coffee, tea and a few grown up drinks. Siphoned coffee, in house roasted and delicious. Beautiful decor with exposed brick, seating in and out. New Orleans Indians descendants' are the photo gallery, although no photographer is given credit. What could be improved: bathroom wasn't super clean, one terse counter girl. Next, the food pick up area is cluttered with condiments, water spigot, plastic wear, some silverware, terrible paper towels but no napkins. This is also where recycling, trash, dish bin, compost, reside and we noticed most tables were not clean; it's a lot of small messes--and not in a cool way. Still go, the wifi is strong, there's a choice of super comfy and cool seating of couches, tables, bar and lots of plugs.

Such a sweet vibe in here! The coffee is delicious, I haven't had a bad drink from there and they have fun, seasonal drinks. Food is good too, I always get eggs n avo toast and it's quality. Line can be a bit long on the weekends and the seats fill up, but it moves pretty quickly. Would recommend!

Probably the best place to get coffee in New Orleans. Beautiful interior and serious coffee that doesn't rely on syrups to taste good. But the syrups are homemade are pretty good too. One of the few places to roast their own beans in New Orleans. Friendly service but it can get busy here as this place is a local favorite.

Cherry Espresso Bar is located inside a building that is more than 100 years old. New Orleans coffee shops are often special places and this is another unique spot to enjoy your coffee and tea. This location next to Wisner Park was previously the old Laurel Street Fire Station and then it later served as a New Orleans Recreation Department Community Center before the city auctioned it off which led to us being able to enjoy some great coffee at Cherry Espresso Bar. They serve some great coffee, tea and other tasty beverages along with a selection of baked goods. This is a great spot to enjoy your caffeine and it has a good variety of seating options both inside and outside. When you find yourself in the mood for some tasty hot beverages you should check this place out. My video review of Cherry Espresso Bar is here: https://youtu.be/iV1AQiz7wc8

I know I been here before just couldn't recall and obviously didn't write a review. Fixed that so I know. Had a matcha lemonade and it was deliciouso. Would probably like it a tad less sweet though like even by half and probably be still as good. Also had a single origin shot and that was a well done shot. Compliments to the barista. Smooth consistent and easy finish. Crema was thin but didn't mind it. Wish there was more space and spots to sit. Nice spot.

Tasty coffee but overrated as per other reviews, plus hipster vibe is a turnoff (no shade, just ain't my thing). Back to the search for local, black owned companies in NOLA...

Cherry is the cutest little coffee shop to grab a quick bite/drink on the go or sit down and catch up with a friend. The inside is moderately quiet if you want to get work done. Cherry offers some food and pastry options as well as coffee, tea, etc.

Yummy breaky treats! Artsy atmosphere! And the hippest-most friendly crew to be found anywhere in NOLA. Overheard there one day: "Hip-hip to the hippity-hip-hop'ñ"

Took 10 minutes for a mediocre pour over and waited 30 minutes for a latte. They forgot to make it and made excuses that they're busy. Own your mistake and apologize! Train your staff! Too bad they take your tip before giving service!

Went to Cherry to do some work. Got a Cortado, which was excellent. The baristas were very kind and my drink came out fast. The place itself is nice with outdoor seating as well. The only complaint I would have is that there is limited seating so if you want a good spot get here before it gets too busy!

Cherry Espresso is a cute coffee shop with great tables for studying and friendly staff; however they always play extremely loud rock music. Even through my noise cancelling headphones I could hear blaring rock music. It's a great coffee shop if you do not need to study

Cute environment, peaceful and quiet. Matcha latte was standard in taste, but kinda small for what you pay and wish it would've been slightly sweetened. Small pastry selection and a hot food menu as well. Blueberry muffin was yummy, but the croissants were just eh (wouldn't get again). But love that it is woman-owned!!

A friend told me that this is their favorite coffeeshop. As an avid yelper and overall social media person, the first thing I do before going anywhere is check their yelp and Instagram profile. I was ecstatic to see a lot of pictures of dogs and reviews surrounding dogs. When we got there, we were surprised that we were told that dogs are not allowed inside. Now, I understand that a lot of establishments don't allow pets. I do typically go out of my way to only go to places that do allow dogs. So imagine my surprise that we were told this after seeing a lot of reviews from others regarding bringing their dogs and seeing dogs all over Cherry's Instagram profile and even calling some of them "regulars". And, seeing dog treats on the counter. I then asked if they have a menu for me to look at while I stand outside with my dog, and I was just told "no". Safe to say I'm never coming back. It was one thing to be misled by the social profile, but the "cherry" on top was that we weren't offered a possible solution (examples: oh you can tie off your dog here... or, place an order online and we'll bring it out to you, etc)

Can get quite crowded even on a weekday. Service is fine and coffee definitely is high quality. One of the best lattes I've had. Bright vibes and some outdoor seating and fast wifi. Good music and ambiance as well.

Strong espresso, lovely latte art, perfect, airy space for studying! Highly recommend their ham and cheese croissant, as well as their bagels. Everything I've had here was well made and the baristas are always welcoming.

I am not a coffee drinker but I do enjoy a good cup of tea. And Cherry did me right in the tea department. I do love a proper cup. BUT of course what I really love about this shop is the building! What a wonderful reuse of the space! The high ceilings make everything airy. And even with all the hard surfaces it wasn't loud... were people being considerate? or was it magic? I just had a yummy pastry when I last stopped in but I need to remember to try an actual meal here. Gorgeous! And I hear the coffee is delish too.

This is definitely one of my favorite coffee shops in New Orleans. They're coffee is great, the baristas are all wonderful, and the environment is very pleasant. It's located right across the street from a children's playground and dog park so there are lots of families coming in and plenty of friendly recognizable faces (even furry ones). It's one of those coffee shops where I hope to be considered 'a local' one day.

Ordered a yummy matcha latte. Excellently steamed unsweetened matcha... my favorite. There is lots of seating, friendly staff, and quick service. I would definitely come back to try breakfast or lunch!

WOW! Amazing espresso. Peru is a fruit bomb. Explosive bright and smooth. Great service, very engaging and friendly! Without doubt one of the best coffees in New Orleans

Located on Laurel Street south of Magazine and a few blocks north of the riverbank, Cherry Espresso Bar is situated in a more quiet location compared to other contemporary and "hip" shops in New Orleans, yet still offers an impressive selection of coffees, pastries and food in an relaxing and well-curated space that makes it, so far, one of the better places I've been in the city. I visited for the first time this morning, and will more than likely be back. The interior of the space is relatively open and simple, with a section devoted to two-seater tables, bar seating along the wall opposite from the barista station, and two cozier seating sections towards the front - one involving a green leather couch and armchairs arranged around a coffee table, the other comprised of a red velvet booth accompanied by two tables for three or four people, respectively. I enjoyed the seating arrangements, as they allowed people to have different options for either doing work, having a meeting, or enjoying one of the espresso bar's food options - like a salad or quiche. Towards the front of the space, a couple of men were conducting some sort of an informal interview, while others worked quietly along the bar, others read on the green couch, and I worked on my laptop at one of the tables for two towards the back. Despite having such a quantity and variety of people in the open space, everyone seemed quite comfortable and at-ease. There was also a collection of art displayed across the walls of the shop from a local painter, which I enjoyed glancing at as I waited for my espresso. I ordered a cortado made with the house blend and a dark chocolate brownie topped with an espresso-chocolate ganache. Before I even took a sip, the cortado was impressive - filled to the tippy-top with milk in the pattern of a fern leaf. Even though these kinds of aesthetic touches can be found in many espresso bars, I appreciate them nonetheless. The cortado tasted great, and paired nicely with the brownie - which was among the best ready-made pastries that I'd ever had at a coffee shop. The brownie itself was rich and tasty, and the ganache on top had the clear taste of espresso without its overpowering bitterness. I'd consider coming in again just to pick up a few of these and take them home. The espresso bar also offers tasting flights, in which something like a macchiato made with their house blend will be paired side-by-side with a shot of single-origin espresso - while I didn't try one of these flights on my visit, I'd imagine that a more apt coffee connoisseur would appreciate the ability to try drinks in contrast to one another before deciding on a future drink purchase, or before ordering coffee for their home. When I visited, they had two options available - a house blend and a Huila Especial from Colombia. I also purchased a bag of Cherry's Lagniappe blend, which involves some mysterious - yet admittedly delicious - blend of Colombian and Brazilian coffees that conjure a semblance of peanut butter, mandarin and milk chocolate. Altogether, I enjoyed Cherry Espresso Bar. I'd visit again, but I'm not quite sure if I would make it a recurrent visit, since it is located a decent distance from the Saint Charles streetcar line - however I think there is a bus route that runs near the shop. I'd also likely visit here when the weather is nicer, since it's located just across the street from a public park that has a basketball court and a walking path that I imagine would be much more enjoyable while not in the peak heat of July. I'd recommend this place to friends and acquaintances or suggest it for interviews or meetings - I'd especially refer Cherry to my more coffee-adept friends.

Friendly staff, good coffee, reasonable prices. Dog friendly patio across the street from the local dog park.

Great matcha lemonade. Terrible customer service. The girl on the phone was so incredibly rude for no reason because I couldn't hear her. They shouldn't have an ableist person answering the telephone. When i went in and stood inside it took five minutes before anyone there acknowledged my existence LOL

Really neat coffee bar. I really love the park area being right next to coffee shop. Perfect for mommies who want a coffee while watching the kids play. This is a hidden gem for me and my friends. We really didn't even know it existed. Really big in the inside. I would be careful of bringing loud little ones in here. My espresso was really good.

What a fabulous place in my 'hood! Easy to get to and the bright yellow building on the corner makes it a beacon for all in search of coffee and other breakfast fare. The staff is cool and the interior is relaxed and able to accommodate small and medium sized groups. Their system for getting food and beverages: everyone stands in line to order and pay (with ApplePay). Then you step around the counter to await items to be prepared. There is typically no table service, unless a large group orders several food items. They also have a station for recycling and dish drop (yes, you bus your own table, which is fine). While we live in a city where we've become accustomed to being waited upon, it's actually refreshing to be in a place where you become an organic part of the process. Their breakfast options range from healthy to wholesome to sweet/guilty pleasures. For example, they offer quinoa and oatmeal dishes; bacon and egg options; French toast and other pastries (muffins, scones, coffee cake). I come here often and enjoy the variety and delicious choices on their menu. Also, I'm not a coffee drinker so I go for their awesome house made chai tea. Whether you're coming to have coffee and breakfast on the go or stopping in to dine and chill, this is a cool spot for that. Also, they are apparently announcing a NEW LOCATION today...! So stay tuned, Yelpers! You heard it here first!

Cherry Espresso Bar is one of the best coffee shops in the city. I know what you're thinking. That's a pretty bold statement considering the proliferation of coffee shops in this city, right? Oh. That wasn't what you were thinking? Well darn. I guess I need to work in my mind reading capabilities. Anywho, here's what makes this one of the best. The Building This building looks to have once been a fire/police station. I absolutely love re-purposed buildings, especially old fire/police stations. Imagine back in 1910 when the police were heading out to work long shifts keeping the citizens safe while the firemen laid around cooking and sleeping. Now picture the building re-purposed and looking modern, welcoming, and comfortable inside. Instead of sleeping firemen and hard working cops, this building is often filled with people working remotely and students studying. What a cool transition. The Coffee Lauren knows her stuff when it comes to coffee. Whether it was working at Mojo, opening her walk up coffee bar in Stein's, or the newest shop, as an owner, she is incredibly well informed about her craft. I love coffee and drink it daily, but she can explain the origin, roasting, and stuff that just boggles my mind. That knowledge translates into one of the best iced coffees I've ever had. The iced coffee at Cherry is dark like my soul but without the bitterness of my attitude. It's perfect without sugar, milk, soywhatevertheheck, or anything other than itself. Parking There is plenty of parking on the street and right off of the street. The spots on the left side are great because you're close and can watch your car from inside. Pro Tip If you want to get your coffee and go, I suggest driving through the fly while you drink it. The shop is close enough and the river view really enhances the perfect iced coffee experience. So what are you waiting for? Get to Cherry Espresso Bar now!

Great place to stop by for coffee and food. They have fast WiFi and lots of tables so it also makes this place a great place to get some work done. For coffee, I've tried both their drip coffee which was great and lattes. Strong and delicious flavors for both. For food, I've had the greens and grits which was so YUM. Delicious grits topped with cherry tomatoes, bacon, collard greens, pickled red onions and a poached egg. My only critique is the poached egg could have been a little more runny. Another great food item is their avocado toast. It has perfectly cooked Brussel sprouts on it, a combo which I've never had but it works. The presentation for this was also really nice with fresh greens and edible florals. Overall great place!

This is a great coffee shop that serves some really great espresso. I would highly recommend ordering the Espresso Flight, which has both a blend and a single origin shot. This allows you to compare and appreciate the subtleties in both drinks. When I went to order another shot, the barista apologized for taking too long because she was just trying to dial in the shot. All I can say is wow, what a great reason! PLEASE, take as long as you want. You can tell they really care about coffee and serving the best possible product. The music was relaxing and good for getting some work done. Seating was not a problem at all, and there were ample available outlets. The barista was charismatic and extremely kind. Oh and theres a dog park right across the street. This was my first time here, but I will definitely be back soon! I recommend you stop by and try the single origin espresso, or if you plan to hang out for a bit, try the flight!

One of the best coffees I've had in the city! I've been meaning to visit for some time now based on others' reviews and it did not disappoint. While unfortunately we had to visit the Children's Hospital ER in the morning, our day was greatly improved by being able to pop over to Cherry Espresso Bar afterwards. The vibe of is cheerful and bright, with the windows letting in lovely amounts of light. I enjoyed my cafe au lait and D got a tasty latte. Not only was the coffee lovely, but the breakfast tacos were wonderful! I honestly wasn't expecting to enjoy them so much and balked a bit at the $9 price (3 tacos per serving). But, honestly, that is on par with current taco prices elsewhere, so I guess I should stop being surprised... and they were delicious. I would definitely purchase again as a breakfast splurge. Cherry Espresso Bar definitely makes the baby friendly list, and has a very welcoming atmosphere for families. There were tons of young kids of various ages and no one batted an eye. Only one potential minus: there was not a baby changing table in the restroom I used. (But to be fair, I did not check the other side.) Parking is easy in the community. The day was so lovely and the location close to Audubon park, so we were able to do a lap before going home.

Their coffee is fantastic. We love to go each weekend and get a bag for the week since we make French press at home. They'll even grind it for you based on how you make coffee at home

Cherry Espresso Bar is certainly more than just an espresso bar. Aside from the usual espresso based concoctions expected to be there, there is also plain old coffee; drip form or pour over, teas, and even a handful of food options aside from pastries. I noticed they carry Roseline Coffee Roasters, which is certainly a top quality brand, and they seem to make coffee well. So you can count on having a good cup. My order consisted of some drip, an order of their chorizo breakfast tacos, and a donut. The food was good, I wouldn't go as far as saying they were the best breakfast tacos ever - maybe around the area, yes - but definitely a commendable attempt. It all made for an enjoyable morning meal to start the day. This is one of those shops worthy of a stop. It's an open space with a neighborhood feel to it; not the trendy type. What's important is the staff is nice and the coffee is done right.

They call it cherry coffee and they serve coffee. They don't serve cherries. Blueberry muffin has crusty top with thin sugary thing. And then there's this inside that's soft. The blueberries will expand to all of it. The service is great. We don't have to wait long. And a lot of the time we don't get catched up. They take Apple Pay which is great. My mama only has Apple Pay. FIVE STAR REVIEW! anddddddd they take credit cards! My mama has a credit card too. And they are really nice people!

The coffee here is so damn good, arguably the best in town. The food pre Covid was amazing I have one one complaint - the pastries are very very bad. My blueberry muffin was reminiscent of the Curb your Enthusiasm episode with the scone. Dry, unsweet and unnecessarily crumbly. if there was one thing to change up, this would be it. I'll still be here regularly regardless

Very cool place to go to, had to see what the buzz was about and wasn't disappointed in the least!! We had the breakfast sandwich and the French toast. I got a pour over with Rwandan beans which was very good no bitterness and I drink my coffee black. Really smooth and great finish to it. I was tempted to guzzle it but had to slow my roll a little and enjoy it. Give this place a shot!!!

Best cafe in New Orleans! This is what I'd been looking for all week! The espresso drinks were nice and frothy and the staff was super sweet! Great vibes here. Definitely would come here often if I lived here.

Anchors the quaint area of W. Riverside, NOLA. Good to all their customers, nice "coffee nerd" staff serving great coffee! I was impressed by the art hanging on their high brick walls, apparently all local artists. It has a local, but still cosmopolitan feel. Honestly, this vibe is one of the things that drove my wife and I to leave Los Angeles and move to New Orleans.

Always great coffee. Food is amazing. Owner and staff are real connoisseurs who know where their coffee comes from and are happy to provide education and suggestions about the types of coffee they sell and the best ways to prepare it. I have never had a bad experience there. This place has it all. Keep up the good work, you guys.

Blown away by this place!! Today, after a long while passing by, I stopped in for a cold brew. In a last minute decision, I ordered the Avocado Toast. WWWOOOWWWW! I know that most ppl reading this will roll their eyes at the idea of avocado toast being orgasmic, but it is. My friend watched in amazement as I savored the toast repeating, after every bite: "this is the best thing I've put in my mouth!" & the coffee was killer too.

Took a break from my normal weekend study spot to try out this cafe right off magazine. Pros: very cute and quiet space, full of sunlight, outdoor patio that you can bring your dog to, pretty good WiFi and a lot of table space. Cons: pretty expensive (I paid $8 for an 8oz latte and blueberry muffin, which is much more than I'd pay at my regular spot) and the muffin was kind of underwhelming. Overall, it was a nice place to study. I'd recommend checking it out if you don't mind slightly steep prices. Maybe try some different pastries other than the muffins.

This is my favorite coffee shop in New Orleans. There's so many things to love about it. I truly appreciate that they serve drinks in mugs and glasses as the default. They separate their waste into a food waste, recycling, and trash. The iced tea and coffee are delightful. It's my brother's favorite cappuccino in the city. The food is also delicious! I love getting the bagels. The atmosphere is lovely with lots of windows and natural lighting. The wifi is strong, and I work here all the time. I do have to say sometimes it is hard to get a table near an outlet though. They have art on display and for sale from different artists which I appreciate that they support local artists. The outside area is small but nice especially on a good day. A plus is it's next to a dog park and playground so you're probably spot a dog there. There's usually plenty of street parking and a bike rake. Like I send in the beginning my absolute favorite coffee shop in NOLA!!!!

First of all, this place is gorgeous. It kinda took my breath away when I walked in. However, if you're the kind of person who doesn't have the time to wait for a carefully prepared cup of brew, I may skip. While I appreciated the care that the lone employee put into the coffee , it took entirely way too long. At least in my opinion. I ordered a hot chocolate for my husband and an iced pour over for myself. I was asked what blend of coffee I would like. Yes, I like my Starbucks and, to be honest, I rather have someone make that decision on blend for me. Even after describing the blends to me, I had her choose . LOL. So my husband's hot chocolate was ready pretty quickly but I was told that mine would take awhile. Ok that's fine. But then a line formed after me and the employee had to tend to those folks. So guess who had to wait even longer for her iced coffee? Also, a little annoying to see those folks after me get their coffee prior to me. I spied a few employees in the back and one even offered to help but she may have declined. Just seemed a bit long to wait for a drink, in my opinion. As far as the vibe of the space, music is perfect and mellow. I love the brick wall and high ceilings. Most of the seating was taken up by students with laptops (WIFI is CherryCoffee) and no one seemed to budge so keep that in mind. There is outdoor seating available but it was chilly out so we stayed put inside. There were a few electrical outlets to charge up your phones/laptops. This is a nice space to relax and if you're not in a rush, I highly recommend.
