Cafe du Monde….nothing like it and I am a NYC native --but nothing compares …. the best of the best.. beignets…and the coffee is terrific, too ! Do not miss a visit to Cafe du Monde in New Orleans! Was down there volunteering in the Lower Ninth after Katrina an unforgettable experience. Will be back!
✨❤️✨
Popeye's when there fresh out the air frying grease had carried awesome beignets a couple years ago. They brought the Flounder Fish Fry sandwich back and I'm hoping they bring back these "winners" I adore their beignets since we don't have Cafe Du Mondê here. SAFEWAY 🛒🧾 stores does now carry the Chicary🪵 🎺 Cafe du Monde Coffee these recent day's. I'm going to pick 1 up
24/7 starting at 7:30am.
Locals don't really go to Cafe du Monde. It's a tourist place.
I think it depends on if you really like beignets or not. The one in the FQ is always so crowded but if you're a local that genuinely likes beignets then Cafe Du Monde is where it is at.
I disagree! Locals go! But locals know that you actually don't have to wait in line. Just walk in and grab a table!
I live 5 blocks away. This is a great place.
uhmmm I disagree with you Chalmers, I am a local and I go there and all the other locations in Metairie and Kenner... I also like morning Call, I used to go to the one by Lakeside mall. New Orleans is home of so many extraordinary places... for instance Hansen's snoblitz it is a must to try... I mean there are plenty in NOLA to go around.. it all depend what you like but I will not dare to say that locals don't go there. Matter fact it is locals who have to go there when visitors come and they want to try this place.
so over rated (every talks about as if its some unique delicacy (its fried food with sugar)
Agreed. Black Coffee was good
So STFU and don't go.
I think you missed the point.
If it's not broken don't fix it! LOVE this place love the coffee.
I got addicted to the coffee when I visited NOLA a few years ago. I visited Cafe du Monde 2x on my short trip. I can’t wait to go back some day!
I’m sure that you can find the
coffee at a specialty grocery store.The trick is to heat the milk to boiling and pour equal amounts. Add real sugar and voila. That’s as close as we can get because there is a secret ingredient.
Absolutely the BEST coffee in the world !
⚜️It’s nice to stop on a weekday morning or evening at CDM! But weekend mornings-you’ll be in dat number (waiting in line) 😂
Last time I was there, the visible staff was all Viet-American. I thought it was Viet-American owned.
The best part of this segment was the hosts talking while eating their beignets.
Worked at this place in high school, so many of them are still there. ⚜️
If in New Orleans it's a must do! Great treat and atmosphere.
Truly nothing like it, a NOLA tradition. Had one of my favorite morning memories ever sitting on the patio there enjoying warm sun, cool breeze, hot coffee, and sweet beignet. 💕
So cool. Sure miss that. Thanks for sharing❤️
Pro Tip: The French Market location is the only location one should visit for beignets and chicory au lait. Avoid all the other locations including at the airport.
The one at City park is just as good though
Bake in the early 1990's I was in New Orleans. I had been to CdM a few yrs before. The wait was so long that I went to a place across the square that sold beignets as well. No wait, and I thought that they were just as good.
That place is making BANK!!!!!!
There were two French types who immigrated to Louisiana -- the French from France, and the French from Canada. The beignets are of Parisienne (France) French origin. It's not a Cajun food. A lot of people don't know the difference, so I thought I'd explain. In New Orleans, you have French restaurants, and you also have Cajun restaurants --two completely different ways of cooking, but both spectacular.
This is right down the street from my house 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you New Orleans family.
As a New Orleans native, that is something I miss since moving away. I have had others trying to recreate it at different restaurants, but it's not the same. Same as King Cake.
The coffee is the best. Beignets are great without the sugar.
I love the long narrow doors that seem so prevalent in New Orleans!
I drink the coffee at home. I get the can at Meijer.
LOVE their coffee ☕.
Been there done that🙂 bucket list check ✔️ ✅️ 👌 went at night
I had an Uncle that worked there during Katrina. He had back home after Katrina hit to get something and rest for a bit and got a call from someone telling him to get his behind back down here we are opening up. He was one of the cooks.
I love this place so much I went on a hot, muggy afternoon in August.
We love Cafe du Monde! Does James May still play trumpet there?
Been to Cafe du Monde more than once in the wee hours! Beignets and a hot cuppa joe...perfect.
"mandazi"
I love their coffee I always get a can at HEB
Worth waiting in line for them 🥰😋
In my youth -- I remember waiting in line in the sweltering heat of summer for that delicious coffee.
Very nice..
One of the best shows on tv!!
Iwanna try them so bad 😮❤
Even better is Luzianne Coffee!
I have been lucky enough to visit four times (I am from Indiana). I love the tradition. Warm beignets and a cafe au lait. Nothing better. I explain it to friends - you wait in line for a table, sit as it comes available, and the server cleans the table and takes your order all in one breath. A true New Orleans experience!
The literal translation of it's name is "Coffee of the World" since originally cafe is the French word for coffee. When I was a kid my dad would say "we're going to the World's coffee" as a shortened translation. But, we equally love Morning Call, which used to be just a couple of hundred feet away on Decatur St. next to the French Market.
And thanks for that interpretation left to my own I figured it always said on my cup Monday Coffee. 🎺😂💚🍚✨💚🍚✨💚🍚👑
Morning Call is so much better.
Gosh… I have not been there in years! My favorite coffee!
Morning Call is my preferred beignet shop. Cafe du Monde is more expensive with too many tourists.
I don't think that's powdered sugar. It piles and moves like a mixture of powdered sugar and fillers. If it was pure powdered sugar they wouldn't put so much on them.
who cares! it taste good¡
Who's the idiot producer that told them to ham it up by talking with a mouth full of food?
this lady needs to put that sugar thing down...her arms will thank her later.
