Small Mart Cafe Reviews
Small Mart is my favorite place to eat in New Orleans. The owner and all the staff are absolutely lovely, kind humans who make all feel welcome and create a place that always feels good to be. We're vegan and have so many options, it's fantastic. But there are plenty of non- vegan options as well. The vegan veggie cream cheese on a toasted everything bagel will blow your mind!

Love this place! Staff is so friendly and the food is incredible. The vegan breakfast sandwich is without a doubt the best I’ve ever had. It’s insane.
And pond coffee is right there too and their coffee is fab. Love this spot.
Consistently excellent. Never had anything I didn’t like here — Philadelphia Maki is supreme.

Small Mart Cafe is a charming, small traditional spot in New Orleans that offers a great variety of food and drinks. Visitors often stumble upon it by chance and quickly fall in love with its friendly vibe and welcoming staff. The cafe is especially famous for its bagels, which many say are the best they've ever had. They offer a wide selection, including vegan options like flavored cream cheeses and the vegan bacon, egg, and cheese bagel, which are highly recommended. The cinnamon raisin bagel with vegan cream cheese is a favorite choice.
In addition to bagels, the cafe serves delicious items like the Pakora Po’boy and a tofu, avocado, and vegan cream cheese bagel that are praised for their taste and filling nature. The Po’boy, with its toasted bread, salad, samosa patty, and tasty sauce, pairs perfectly with the great drip coffee from Pond Coffee, which is located inside the same shop. The vegan options extend to drinks with oat and other plant milks available, and the coffee is noted for being very good.
Overall, Small Mart Cafe has a warm atmosphere, friendly staff, and excellent food, making it a must-visit in NOLA. Visitors often wish they had more time to enjoy more dishes and return again.
