About Hen House

Hen House is a local spot in New Orleans that many customers love. The baked goods are spot on, and the gluten‑free options are wonderful. The staff are always upbeat and happy to help. Soups of the day are always delicious. The menu is full of egg casseroles, grits, pastries, sandwiches, salads and sweets. A lemon pound cake square is especially tasty. Breakfast tacos with avocado, shrimp and grits, and pumpkin pie are big, generous portions and very inexpensive compared to gluten‑free food elsewhere. The restaurant feels like a mom‑and‑pop diner and the small team is extremely attentive and hardworking. Service is prompt, friendly and the place is clean. Plentiful gluten‑free bakery options include a 6‑piece assorted pastry box for $18 and fresh sourdough bread. Hen House is a cozy, cute spot that offers great food, a welcoming atmosphere and friendly service.

Thanks so much for the king cake! We picked one up Saturday & I brought it to my office today. It was completely devoured & EVERYONE raved about it. I heard “Best king cake I’ve ever tasted” at least a half dozen times.

Keep up the good work! :)

I am from Shreveport La and finding a good gluten free king cake is extremely hard. I have had king cakes shipped from many of places down south and just could not find a good one. A friend from the area brought me a gluten free king cake home from The Hen House and it is the best cake i have ever had. Even those of my family who don’t eat gluten free thought it was so delicious. 1000000% recommend!!!

Excellent, delicious food, assorted desserts and bread. The atmosphere was great, enjoyable, and the staff was helpful and welcoming!
