Food Scene
One of our all-time New Orleans favorites. A cute restaurant and wine bar located right in our neighborhood - the Bywater. Casual, laid back, trendy atmosphere with outstanding food and wine. There is a stage with a band playing in the afternoon for lunch and the evening for dinner. We recommend it to practically all of our visitors: family, friends, or guests.

Quaint coffee shop right on Burgundy St. They serve any kind of coffee drink you could wish for…including the boozy kind (Get the Dirty Filthy Chai if you're feeling up to it). They also serve amazing pastries (best PB cookie) and have yummy breakfast & lunch meals as well. Cool, friendly staff.
