"Café Du Monde is an absolute New Orleans classic and for good reason! The beignets are warm, fluffy, and covered in the perfect layer of powdered sugar, and they pair perfectly with a cup of rich, smooth chicory coffee. It’s simple, delicious, and exactly what you hope for when visiting this iconic spot. The atmosphere is lively and full of that unique New Orleans energy, with people coming and going at all hours. Whether you’re sitting outside enjoying the music or grabbing a quick bite to go, it’s an experience that never gets old. If you’re in New Orleans, a stop at Café Du Monde is a must it’s a true taste of the city’s charm and tradition."

"If you don’t feel like waiting for crazy long at the main cafe, this is the best option. Lines were great/fast and service was wonderful. The coffee was so good and so were the beignets. They were nice and hot. (Little tip: shake the bag before you start eating. Helps them get fully coated in powdered sugar) Will definitely be coming back!"

"I had such a great time here! The cafe and bakery serve really delicious drinks and pastries — everything tasted fresh and comforting. The atmosphere is lively with fun, upbeat music that makes you want to stay longer. What I love most is how close it is to New Orleans’ famous attractions, so it’s perfect for a quick stop while exploring the city. A great spot to relax, recharge, and enjoy some local flavor!"

"Just the basics! Coffee and beignets. But they have decaf for me. With milk and chocolate. Fresh beignets- a delightful Chanukah treat! Quite a bit easier to get in here, in a mall, compared to their landmark outlet in the French Quarter."

"I took a detour on my cross country road trip, went out of my way to stop in for some beignets swimming in powdered sugar. It was my 4th time to go here over the past decade. I'd almost bet money that the bathroom hasn't been cleaned since my first trip. Beyond nasty. My waiter was one of the few who actually hustled while others sat around (yes, sat) looking at their phones. The beignets were overcooked and almost tough. I only ate about half of one and gave up. If not for a great (overworked) waiter, this would have been a major disappointment. I enjoyed the street musicians. They drowned out my scream when I saw a huge rat just outside the tent area as I was leaving."
