This was the most impressive part of my trip to the Gulf Coast. No joke. I walked in expecting coffee and a treat and ended up feeling like I had gone to church and smiling on my way out. The wonderful gospel music playing, everyone saying HELLO/WELCOME when you walk in, and the people were so uplifting the rest of my day was riding on a cloud. Thank you for your amazing service and love that you spread to each and every person that comes into your establishment. I could not have asked for better coffee or the wonderful apple pie/fritter thing, I have no idea what it was called but get it! The pocket pastries were savory and excellent. Ask for them to be cooked longer if you want it real hot! GO GO GO and be ready to go to church! Thanks for the spiritual awakening and hear lifting part of my day!

Only in NOLA for 3 days, but we came here 2 mornings in a row. Food, coffee, everything is amazing, people are welcoming, super clean and spacious environment, never a long wait. It doesnt get much better than this.

Best coffee shop in New Orleans. Wonderful customer service and you receive your orders efficiently even when crowded. Additionally, staff are involved with the Baptist Seminary rehabilitation program across the street so your money is going to help people trying to better their situation. Get a cafe au lait and a cherry hand pie.

Great breakfast and a short walk from the Providence Guest House where were were staying. Indoor or outdoor seating. Masks and vax or PCR test required if dining indoors. We also wore masks inside when ordering.I had the big biscuit. It lived up to its name! Everyone in our group really enjoyed their food. Will definitely return in the future!

I love this place! This was the best unintended find. Cinnamon roll was significantly good, crawfish Nola’che was so good I wish I bought more. No doubt I’ll be back when I’m back in town. And love what I hear about what they are doing for the community.

Awesome establishment and the positive energy from everyone was AMAZING!!! I had a situation where they did not accept larger bills and I only had $8.00 in ones. My order was $8.80 and instead of turning me away, they helped me out. Definitely made my morning! The coffee and breakfast option are delicious 👌 I will be back!

I love this place. Its cute, has a great well-priced menu, and the staff is super friendly. I normally take my orders to go and service is fast and efficient. Im only giving four stars because I sat in for the first time to study and it was very distracting; the music is so loud with retail store vibes. I would suggest turning down the jams and maybe switching the genre so it feels more relaxing.

Always great service but today I tried some food. I had an almond croissant the other day, which is dessert-ish. Today I tried the spinach feta one. Delicious! The salads looked great too, which will be my next pick. This is fast becoming my favorite coffee shop.

Review №78

Cozy place to enjoy a good cup of coffee or tea at a very reasonable price. Genuine greeting upon entry. Service was prompt and friendly. Seating area was clean and spacious. Decor was unpretentious yet wall space was cluttered. Excellent place to study, commune with friends or conduct business. Easy access with adequate parking. Although I did not eat breakfast the selection looked inviting. Music was pretty good yet loud. Im sure if I had asked them to reduce the volume they would have complied. This was my first long-overdue visit and will certainly support this local community treasure.

This is a great place for coffee that is not at Starbucks prices. I love Starbucks but this place makes everything they do and more without their markup. The food is great too. My favorite is the cheese burger pockets and breakfast combinations. Best of all this is all benefits a program that helps people through the church. I found the staff very friendly and I love the food. I cant recommend this place enough.
