Two Chicks Cafe

Nothing but freshness! Carla was an attentive and kind server who was able to answer my questions. The belt sandwich was light, fresh, and filling. Spouses chicken omelet was equally as fresh and filling. My only suggestion is a savory crepe. But then I would have missed out on the belt. So… No doubt the high rating on Google is well deserved. And without requesting Carla offered a coffee to go and the coffee is everything you expect from a diner coffee.

I am so happy I found this place before I left New Orleans. Their food is so amazing I had breakfast and lunch there today. They use amazing ingredients, their staff are amazing and the 80’s and 90’s music is amazing. The turkey and smoke Gouda omelet and their grilled chicken chicken and pesto with Gruyère and spinach panini were absolutely delicious. I can’t wait to go again

Came in for breakfast because it was close to our hotel. We were blown away. Large portions and the food was incredible. We came back again the next day for breakfast. I got an omelet both days. The green blast juice is delicious. I also tried an iced latte which was great. Both servers we had were wonderful. Glad we found Two Chicks while we were visiting.

Great brunch spot. Colorful and relaxing and great smoothies and brunch po boys. Great idea to start your day here then head to a museum

The inside of Two Chicks is a cute little place. Nice seating when eating and checking out. Once we walked to the entrance someone greeted us. She was very nice and the person that took our order was super nice as well. The food was ok. Expectation for food is very high in N.O and it really didn’t satisfy my cravings.

Everything was grear. Pancakes were fluffy. Breakfast poBoy was a smoke sausage. I'm not too much of a fan of smoke sausage. It was still good. Great poboy bread. sometimes you go to places, and they have that hard stuff. this was not. It was light and fluffy. There is wait. It's a lot faster if there is 2 people. 4 took some it. I wouldn't go with a big group because they are really busy and don't have good seating for that.

This place was recommended to us by a staff member at our hotel. I'm so glad she recommended this place. It is small but good. The wait may vary depending on how many are in line as it is a popular place. We didn't wait long, 10 min, cause we beat the crowd. All of our Breakfast items were delicious! Omg, it was so much food, big portions, you could share dishes. I will definitely return.

Wife was at a conference in convention center and the food options are miserable, so we took a short walk to Two Chicks and so glad we did. We split the Shrimp and grits and man when people said they had good sized portions they weren't kidding! We couldn't even finish it. So the shrimp and grits weren't my favorite they were good, and my wife loved them. We also got a breakfast poboy Togo for our son, and that thing was absolutely killer. Tldr: If your at convention center and need some food walk over here it was quick , delicious and service was fantastic!

Food always comes fast and tasty. I had a missing item once last year but it was an accident, so check your order if you get it to go. My favorite is definitely their grits.

The food was so nice, we came here twice! But seriously the food was delicious! We were in town for a conference and this place was across the street from the convention center. It was a quick walk to the place. The first day I ordered the Barnyard Eggwich, which was smoked turkey, egg, and herbed cream cheese on a marble rye for $7.99. I ordered it with a side of roasted potatoes. This was so good! Great ingredients and prepared fresh! The second day I ordered the Breakfast Poboy, which was andouille sausage, eggs, Gouda cheese, grilled onions, and spicy mayo served on French bread. I swapped out the spicy mayo for regular mayo. I ordered this was a side of the roasted potatoes. This was excellent! So much flavor! Service was excellent! Would definitely come back and highly recommend!

Enjoyed this spot.. The ambience, the service and the food.. Especially the cheese grits . Nothing special, but simple grub, done well.. I'm a fan

This just wasn't it for me. It was exciting to have a brunch spot this close to our hotel. I stopped in and the location is somewhat strange but the area dedicated to the restaurant is nice. The service was ok. I was greeted immediately but when I wanted to place my to go order, everyone was very busy. It only took about 15 min after I placed my order to receive my food. I ordered the crab cake Benedict. I didn't like it. I should've gotten it with grits but I was headed to the convention. The crab cake was more of a bread pattie/bun with crab. More bread than crab. Not how we make it in South Carolina. It came on a croissant - different than normal but I was willing to try. It wasn't toasted. The Cajun hollandaise was nice but one of my poached eggs was over cooked. Maybe I caught them at a bad time. I wouldn't go back.

The breakfast was amazing. So good, I had to go twice, once at each of the two locations. The omelettes are huge! The french toast...delicious! Loved the atmosphere. I'll be back!

I ordered the Under the Sea Omelette. The picture doesn't do justice as this omelette was MASSIVE. There must have been 12 eggs in the omelette. It was very tasty and delicious; however very heavy and rich. The dish could have easily been shared by two people. The service was great and our waitress kept checking in on us and refilling our coffees. We went on a Friday so the line wasn't too bad. However when we walked past the restaurant on Saturday the line was down the block, so plan accordingly!

Was here attending a conference at the convention center and this breakfast spot was conveniently walkable from the hotel we were staying and the convention center. Breakfast is served all day here, highly recommend trying if you are in the area :) All omelets and benedicts come with choice of creamy grits, roasted potatoes or fruit and toast. CRAB CAKE BENEDICT: A popular item, this benedict comes with your classic poached eggs, crab cake, and cajun hollandaise on a croissant. I chose to try the creamy grits, just not my personal preference and I plan on getting fruit next time. My husband got the same and chose fruit, which came with a bowl of fresh strawberries and banana.

Went to the original location near the convention center. Cute & cozy atmosphere. Very friendly staff. Place is so good we ate 2 days in a row. I had the Under the Sea omelet loaded with shrimp and crab meat. It normally comes with brie, bell pepper, green onion and dill. I swapped out the brie for smoked Gouda....served with thick slabs of rye bread and a side ( I chose grits). It was sooooo good I had it the next day with Gruyere cheese. The grits were so creamy and excellent too. My bro had Eggs Benedict on a croissant which he thoroughly enjoyed. Great coffee; fresh squeezed juices including Boost type blends ( ginger, etc) They also serve lunch.\ It's a small menu but super large on flavor and creativity. There is another location in the CBD. A MUST for breakfast when in the area. Just look at the pictures! MENU : http://www.twochickscafe.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/menu1.pdf

Just arrived in town the night before. We were so happy to discover that this well regarded place was close to our hotel in the Warehouse District. Walked on over. It was a bit hard to find because it was inside a commercial building. Coffee was outstanding as was the breakfast Po Boy that we shared, along with a side of delicious cheesy grits and a side of fresh fruit. Plenty for two! The service was friendly and helpful. We left happy to set off on our first day of adventures in NOLA! The other reviewers are right! Get on over there!

If you are attending a conference, this is a great option. We were also staying at the hotel within a walking distance, so we ate here a few times because of convenience. It can get very crowded during lunch hours (we did go during conference week). Most of the items we tried on the menu were good. I was not the biggest fan of thai shrimp poboy. It felt very soggy. I liked their green blast juice. The only downside is that it is $9 for such a small cup! Orange mint sweet tea was good. If you are in the mood for an omelet, the sea omelet was good Their chicken panini was decent. Again, might not be the tastiest food ever, but everything tasted pretty good & it was convenient.

Grabbed a quick breakfast before heading to the convention center here, the food was good but overall a bit pricey in my opinion, and the place was super busy and it was hard to get ahold of the waitress. We were in a hurry and had to give our cards to the bartender to pay. Overall a nice spot for brunch but would make sure we had more time to spend there next time! Huge portion sizes! The place is steps away from the convention center and super convenient!

fantastic food and always so much energy in the place. They have a big selection of food options as well. Hot food, cold options on a hot day. Large drink selections too.

Needed a quick meal in between the conference, stopped by with a colleague. The waitress was friendly, but food took some time since we ordered lunch items during breakfast time. If you order breakfast items, it's quick. Got the health bowl with chicken (quinoa, salad with beets and chicken), it was delicious but overly dressed with seasoning and barely any quinoa. My colleague had a better experience with her dish, so I like to believe they have great potential.

This was the first time we came here. It's the location by the convention center. Every single thing we had was good. From the Bloody Mary to the fruit on the side. Everything was fresh. It's just a really good breakfast spot. This location is small, I am unsure about the other location. I will say people ate and moved along so the line moved fast. Definitely a no miss spot to try for breakfast if you want to try something new.

The best food , the best service , and the best waitress CATRINA with a C !! she is one of the reasons we keep coming back !! The French toast is OUTRAGEOUS!!! Everytime we fly in to NOLA this is our first stop

It was DEEEElicious!! Even delivered it was hot and fresh. We had two of the Build Your Chicks Omelette (one shrimp, crab, mushrooms and Gruyère; one shrimp, ham, spinach, tomato and goat cheese), and a French Papa's French Toast and OMG! Both options were Perfection. We both got grits and wheat toast with our omelets. The grits alone were outstanding. Creamy and delicious and didn't need additional seasoning. The French toast was thick, soft pillows of eggy,spiced bread with fresh strawberries and bananas on top. Absolutely delicious. Needless to say, we had leftovers. We ate them for breakfast the next day.

My friends and I enjoyed a quick lunch at Two Chicks. I had the chicken panini; delish!!

The inside of Two Chicks is a cute little place. Nice seating when eating and checking out. Once we walked to the entrance someone greeted us. She was very nice and the person that took our order was super nice as well. The food was ok. Expectation for food is very high in N.O and it really didn't satisfy my cravings.

This small shop on the first floor in a medium size building was on point. I enjoyed my under the sea omelet so much the next day my friends went back to order it. This blend of seafood and Brie cheese was perfect. All the food was good but I had to close my eyes and meditate on this omelet. The food was excellent. The service was good. The establishment was full. The ambiance was okay...nice intimate and small.

Green juice and grits were amazing! I usually have to doctor up my grits at restaurants, but these were perfect. I built my own omelette which was good. This busy little cafe had friendly staff and fast service.

This is my wife's favorite brunch spot. It's a nice spot to get you a simple breakfast/brunch. The service is always good, all the waitress are very nice! The place gives a cool colorful hippy vibe. The food is great you know what to expect every-time you go, they are very consistent. The Under the Sea Omelet is a beast stuffed with Shrimp & Crab they don't short you on the seafood. Thats a plus most restaurants wouldn't do that. The pancakes are made good as well they have a nice brown Carmel color, and they are very sweet. Overall this spot is real solid if you're looking for a nice brunch!

Cute little brunch spot tucked away next to the convention center. We were here for the conference at said convention center so naturally it was quite busy. Despite that we only had to wait for 5 minutes and were able to sneak two spots by the bar. The staff there was evidently quite overwhelmed and the pace just never really died down the whole time we were there. We got a farmhouse omelette and the crab cake eggs benedict on croissant and they were both phenomenal. The taste on the omelette was complex and rich, paired perfectly with the rosemary-infused potatoes and toast. The Benedict was also poached to perfection and had just the right amount of yolk spilling into the crab cake to generate a beautiful and gooey flavor that really makes the tastebuds explode. Possibly the heartiest brunch I've ever had. I'd give this place 5 stars on the food alone but the team seemed to buckle under pressure from the sheer volume of customers that day. We had to repeatedly ask for utensils, service was chaotic and a bit disorganized, and it took a very long time to get the bill. The team has potential but needs a bit more experience. tldr; excellent brunch place at an amazing price. Definitely recommend for a hearty meal

This is is a very convenient location as it is located close to the Convention Center and there are cruise pickup/drop offs right outside this building. We arrived around 10am on a Saturday and were seated within 5 minutes although the restaurant was packed. The cold brew is strong! I saw many people order smoothies or juices which is a great option for a hot day (going through a heat wave upon our visit in June). I got the BELT Eggwich which was awesome, I practically inhaled this sandwich. I did not detect much jalapeño on the bread but overall, this is a classic egg breakfast sandwich. My fiancé got the Farmhouse Omelet which was very tasty. There were lots of tomatoes and the smoked turkey was great. Great little breakfast spot, I would come back next time we are in town.

This was a short distance from our hotel and was recommended by a staff member. It was suggested to try the shrimp and grits!! Once there, we were immediately greeted and seated, party of 5 around 10am on a Monday. The decor was cute and simple. The staff was friendly and very helpful with the menu selection. I was immediately impressed at the menu stating only fresh squeezed juice. I can't remember which one I had but it had Fiji apple in it and it was sweet and very delicious. May cousin had a smoothie and said it too was good and was tasting the vanilla. Someone else ordered apple juice and that for sure, was fresh squeezed apple juice. The Thai Po'Boy was very tasty, almost like a sweet chili sauce but with no heat to it. It was delicious. I tasted the shrimp and grits and OMG, they were the best. Not everyone can make grits but this cooked knew what they were doing. Consistency was on point, shrimp cooked and seasoned perfectly and toasted bread. It was so filling. No-one complained about their meal, in fact, we were upset we learned of this place on the day we were leaving. Our server was thee best with her suggestions, honesty and patience.

Two Chicks was my go to breakfast spot when I worked in the area years ago. The owners have a wonderful story and loyal following. I loved sharing this adorable restaurant with my family over the last few months. They stay busy, so be prepared for a wait, especially if you are dining with more than one person. The orange juice is fresh squeezed, the service is great, and the atmosphere is one that makes you never want to leave. Enjoy!

This gem of a restaurant is tucked inside a building with a store located a couple of blocks from the convention center. I stopped in for lunch and didn't have to wait long at the hostess podium to be seated. Service was prompt, friendly, and attentive. The menu offers a variety of classic breakfast and lunch items, as well as an assortment of beverages including juices. I built my own omelette, which came out exactly as described. The dish and sides were made from fresh, quality ingredients. I did have a few shell pieces from the shrimp in my omelette. There were several hot sauces along with a basket of butter and jellies for bread at each table. The portions were large, so I took a box to save my leftovers. Overall, I left very satisfied and would recommend this place for breakfast, lunch, or brunch if you're in the area!

Delicious breakfast spot with hearty servings. The staff are friendly! Crepes and grits are scrumptious!

The food was great, the service was even better. The place ascetically looks good and plays decent music. It's not too loud but has a nice balance of chatter, music and silence. I recommend as a good spot on your off day or when you have time during the day to relax and grab a bite.

My first meal here in New Orleans and it was right around the corner from my hotel. You can't make reservations, just walk in and stand by the little em booth and wait to be seated. Luckily, the wait is wasn't long and we were able to be seated within 10/15 minutes. Our server was really nice and it seems like everyone in there worked as a team. Now next, this bomb breakfast: ~ Bacon and Andouille Sausage - Soooooooo good! ~ Creamy Grits - definitely creamy and had a wonderful flavor. ~ Papas French Toast - TOP TIER. Crispy on the outside and soft and delicious inside ~ Eggs - eggs are eggs lol Overall, I would definitely come back and have a nice meal one day! I would love to try lunch one day!

Service was a little slow, it took a while to make drinks and I didn't feel like our server followed up with us unless we had requested it. Also be prepared to wait at least 10 mins if you get a juice made. The eggs were really good, I got mine scrambled with Gruyère- which I enjoyed as a cheese option. The breakfast potatoes were over cooked and somewhat greasy. When I tried to pick them up with my fork they would fall apart. Crispier breakfast potatoes would have been better. They were seasoned though and not just with salt and pepper.

Good food, took a little long. Loved the French Toast. Did not have to wait long to be seated.

Found this little gem while attending a conference in the neighborhood. Food and portions were great. The prices were very reasonable and I wish I could remember her name, but our server couldn't have been friendlier. And when departing she extended the offer of that NOLA tradition, a to go cup for our beverages! (Coffee) Great breakfast menu. Good job, ladies!!

BAM! Perfect spot for coffee and happily discovered crepes on the menu! This place buzzes with a great vibe and energy. Busy staff take their time to great you, treat you and celebrate their passion for service and good food. All the diners around me look happy with their omelettes, Benedict, bacon and grits, eggs and everything you can imagine. I am here just a few days but I will be back. Great location next to convention center.

This New Orleans staple is a must have for breakfast before you leave the city. I decided to try this place right before catching my flight home. It was a 2 minute walk from our hotel located across from the Convention Center, so it is conveniently located for any tourist. Tha atmosphere is so cute. Many people were working from the cafe. There were eclectic decorations that made you feel like exploring the weird side of you. The service was great as the staff knows everything about the menu and will help you make the difficult decision of what to eat. The only thing I didn't like about Two Chicks was that the restroom was located outside of the restaurant and they have to give you a key. The food will make up for the restroom inconvenience. I ordered an create your omelette with fresh ingredients. It came with their gooey, yummy cheese grits and wheat toast. I'm not a fan of cheese in my grits, but Two Chicks Cafe changed my mind. This delicious breakfast was a great way to end off my NOLA trip!

Food was delicious . Popular place and worth the wait. Service was good and ambiance simple and well light. Recommend restaurant for great breakfast

Great service, great food and great wait staff. This was a nice close spot to the convention center where essence festival was being held! So happy to have found this place for breakfast before a full day at the convention center. Omelet was excellent, pancakes were excellent and juice was great. If you get the ice coffee with whisky please expect to be buzzed.

Holy crab! I have just had the best Crab Cake Benedict in my life. The secret is the buttery brioche bun they used. The Iron Chick juice was paired perfectly with the right fruits! The service was quick and our waitress was friendly. Atmosphere was super chill. The whole experience was superb. If you're in the area, you simply much stop by!

BLUF: Delicious fresh juices and a menu worth multiple visits! The Breakfast Sandwich Po'boy was good, a decent sandwich that will make you think it's pretty good. What I got out of my first visit was their selection of fresh made juices. I got their green one with ginger, kale, apple, carrot(?). It was great! Very gingery and just enough sweetness to compliment the bold flavors of the Breakfast Sandwich. My second visit I got their BBQ Shrimp over creamy grits with toasted slices of baguette. Fantastic! This dish pushed my rating to the current four-stars. It is a shrimp étouffée over creamy grits. I added on two over easy eggs to put them on top. Their beet focused juice was also pretty tasty.

This place is truly a gem! It's a pretty small place but the personality from the decor to the servers are so big. Ashley and Daisy were my servers. They are extremely hospitable and made my friends and I feel right at home. The food was delicious and the drinks hit the spot! The wait wasn't too long so I'd highly recommend this place for a nice brunch spot. Overall 9.5/10

I ate breakfast here everyday of the ATD Conference. Kickin' chicken omelet kept me full all day! And sooo delicious!

We were staying nearby and as a foodie, I'm always looking for some cool local places to eat. Two Chicks Cafe was a short walk away and is located in the lobby of a building near the port and Convention Center Blvd. We got there right when they opened at 8:00 am & there was already a line (good sign). Note there are plenty of hotels nearby + the convention center so get there early or expect to wait. The staff was friendly although they seemed a bit overwhelmed the morning we dined there. The menu offers the typical items you would expect along with some local favorites. They also have fresh squeezed juices & smoothies too. I had the grits bowl with sauteed veggies. We also had a fresh juice with kale, spinach, carrot, lime, apple + ginger. Everything was so good and fresh. We will definitely be back next time we are in town as this is better than the typical hotel food.

Enter the small mall entrance to get to the front. Colorful harvest and flower mural on the back wall. Whimsical wall design. Eclectic mismatched tables and seats. It's good thing it's the weekday. I could see this place being quite busy on the weekends. Ordered a fresh OJ, health bowl, Turkey fig on a croissant and a crab Benedict with a side of fruit and a la carte side of Turkey sausage. $50.94. OJ tastes fresh, not super sweet or flavorful, but okay. They have a juicer behind the bar. My Turkey fig and goat cheese croissant looks a bit mangled. The fig is a spread. Sandwich is not bad. Same Turkey meat for the Turkey side, was thinking it would be an actual sausage. The turkey meat is nice, nicely roasted and quite flavorful too. The health bowl was good. The crab Benedict was decent, the crab cake was good. The croissant scaling is a bit off with the small crab cake though. Need a bathroom key to use the restrooms.

Has good portions,reasonable prices. Was crowded,mostly local people. Friendly service. Yogurt and fruit was excellent. Don't go for ambiance.

Was on the hunt for an andouille sausage breakfast sandwich and this gem delivered. It was simple and delicious. The bread was absolute perfection. Had a side of grits and I was blown away. It was by far the best grits i have ever had. Also cant go wrong with fresh squeezed orange juice! The staff was super friendly. I adore this place and I am very pleased to find a reliable place to eat while i am in town.

A few Yelp searches later and we ended up here....2 chicks heading to "Two Chicks Cafe." This place is small and quaint, but hidden inside of another establishment. We were greeted and seated immediately. bbq shrimp and grits- chefs kiss! A must get.. fresh squeezed orange juice- you gotta quench your thirst with the #1 breakfast beverage! It had just the right amount of pulp. Not sure which orange tree those grew on, but I need a few of those myself. Gotta keep the immune system boosted with Vitamin C. Crab cake Benedict- ehh they were ok. My friend didn't care for the Cajun hollandaise sauce that comes on it, but she enjoyed the entree once she had it made without the hollandaise. What's a Benedict with hollandaise....qtna! Overall service, food, and atmosphere was enjoyable. If you're in the area check it out!

Upon entering, the ambiance was rather bleak, with no one to greet me. When assistance finally arrived, the staff seemed preoccupied with a table requesting timely service. Despite the warning signs, I proceeded to place a to-go order. While at the to-go station, I observed a disorganized and potentially unsanitary bar setup, with strawberries placed next to a trash can designated for juicing. Furthermore, a server mistakenly delivered food to the wrong guest, causing confusion and highlighting potential mishandling of orders. Witnessing servers enjoying meals amidst the chaos, with leftover food cluttering the bar and tables, was disconcerting. Waiting for my own order, I observed a chef questioning a server about the number of eggs for a guest, revealing internal communication issues. In contrast, I highly recommend Two Chicks on Gravier for their consistently efficient service, quality food, and adherence to health code procedures. Regrettably, when my food finally arrived, it was a disappointment - untoasted bread, burnt pancakes, and a missing side of grits. Save your money and opt for a more reliable dining experience at Two Chicks on Gravier.

My food was absolutely delicious. I ordered the grit bowl. The bowl includes grits, eggs, and veggies. You can choose to add either seafood or meats. I also order a side of rye bread. Service was okay and our server was patient as we waited for our full party. The restaurant was clean.

Oh yes I recommend this cafe! The food was fabulous!! This is on the top of my go to list when I return to New Orleans. Everyone was super friendly and I love the decor too

Great breakfast next to the convention center!! I went here both mornings before attending a local conference. Food was great, service was quick. They also offer fresh squeezed juice and smoothies. The fruit is actually juiced at the bar in front of the restaurant. The Crab cake Benedict was good, sauce was nice! 10/10 would recommend!

Great service and value and one of our favorites the whole trip. Tried the following French toast ***** Crab cake eggs Benedict ***** Strawberry Smoothie ***** Cons parking
