We were visiting and happened to stumble upon this cafe. You can’t run to this place fast enough… by far the best breakfast I have ever had! The staff was amazing and they give you a special “small town” feel! I can’t say enough to express how great this cafe is. The Bayou Boudin Biscuit is amazing!

What was supposed to be a quick in and out stop for a Christmas present, ended up being a 2 hour stay! We LOVE this place! We felt transported to a spot in New Orleans. It is the most cozy, warm, and good vibe place ever. The coffee is so good, the food is delicious, and the pastries are a must. The people are great, welcoming and I felt that I knew them already. Check out this hidden gem. Highly recommended!

Oh man, I wanted to like this place so badly, especially with the limited options for breakfast in New Iberia.For starters, it’s a coffee shop, but has VERY LIMITED coffee options.The menu had typos so for the 1 Man Breakfast it said it included rice, but thankfully I asked about it because it should have said grits. It sounded delicious, but instead of the breakfast bowl written on the menu it came out as an All American Plate with a side of grits, eggs, bacon, & a tablespoon of pepper jelly. There was absolutely no flavor to the food. I had to add salt & pepper. It definitely didn’t taste like Southern cooking. The quality of the food was just weak. The bacon reminded me of the cheap thin sliced bacon you’d get at McDonald’s rather than the thick, crispy bacon you’d expect.I asked for my coffee to be substituted with almond milk. They used oat milk, which was perfectly fine, but still not what I asked for.The place was cute. The service was great, but I definitely won’t be back.

Awesome ppl great food ambiance Family . Love the atmosphere . When I can't leave my desk my friends pick my food up and it's no different than if I had sat in .

Powdered eggs, frozen sausage patties and toast shouldn't take an hour to serve. I'm so confused...5 reviews, all positive. I got bad luck. $31 for two drip coffees, muffins under cooked with soft bacon and powdered eggs. I really don't blame the staff and chefs for this. Our world is messed up.

We went for breakfast after church. It's a cute little bistro. We sat down and ordered fairly quickly. We ordered the regular breakfast, which was a whole grain toast, scrambled eggs, sausage patties. We also ordered something called a 'puffin', which is scrambled eggs and bacon inside a pancake shaped like a muffin with maple syrup drizzled on top. Also ordered 2 fresh drip coffees. Received the coffees promptly and they were very good! But, then the wait started. We sat and sat and sat. After about 45 minutes we asked what was up. Told it would be soon. After another 15 minutes we asked for some water. Our coffee was gone by this time. They let us know at this time that my husbands meal was ready, the sausage, eggs and toast and they included some grits but the 'puffin' was not ready. I told them to go ahead and bring his out. Another 10 minutes went by, his meal was done and here comes the 'puffin'. So, it was really good or maybe I was just starving by this time. Anyway, we ate and left, pretty bummed that we weren't warned how long it was going to take. We wanted to like this place but won't be visiting again. They should have comped something but nope. Customer service goes a long way in situations like this.
