We did the typical tourist route. Chicory coffee and beignets. I had the frozen chicory coffee my wife had the hot coffee. Everything was exactly as I expected. Our server was awesome.

Oh my gosh 😍 this isn’t a restaurant it’s an experience! They have captured something special here. Get a frozen coffee and some beignets and listen to the live performers. It’s amazing!

This is one of those places you need to tick the box to. We came and tried the renowned beignets , a very sweet fried dough with lots of powered sugar on top and we had the coffee with chicory as recommended. Coming from Colombia this coffee was not a pleasant drink, to say the least, but this is something to do while being here so it did the trick.
The restrooms are dirty and unpleasant. I would not come back to this place but can now say I did it.

We just got beignets to go, but the staff was kind of surly and borderline rude. Make sure you eat your beignets quickly; they're best when fresh and warm.

If you want traditional beignets and a good coffee this is your place! It's busy and very loud. Just pick a seat. The jazz is worth listening to and tipping for! The service is average as everyone is on their phone and giving service partial attention. The bathrooms are meh. Just sayin. Stop. Enjoy. Move on.

An historic icon, for sure. Not 5-star. Kind of a dump actually.

getting the beignet fresh and warm was definitely the right choice. but honestly, it was okay. it wasn't too sweet and had a great consistency, but the overall flavor was quite flat. i did enjoy their coffee though.

The beignets were AMAZING!!!! It’s cash only so keep that in mind. It was a little confusing when you get there, just sit and someone will serve you. Live music playing too!

Outdoor dining under a pavilion essentially. Beignets were awesome, frozen coffee was good too. Cash only. Be prepared. Live music by local musicians on the sidewalk

Crowded and a little chaotic, but the beignets really are worth it — hot, fluffy, and buried under powdered sugar. Chicory coffee is bold, almost earthy, and pairs perfectly. It’s touristy, sure, yet still delivers that unmistakable New Orleans vibe.
