About this business
This French-market coffee stand, established in 1862, offers a menu of dark coffee with chicory, beignets, white or chocolate milk and freshly-squeezed orange juice. Cafe Du Monde is one of the most popular and the oldest of its kind in New Orleans. You may have to wait for a table in the busy morning hours owing to its famous breakfast menu. While the coffee is certainly good, most people come for the famous, fresh-from-the-fryer beignets. They are brought to your table in such a hurry that they are still hot when you take ... read more

Ugh! What a disappointment – THis was our first stop in New Orleans after more than a dozen years away. I couldn't have been more disappointed. Did I romanticize this place before or did it take a serious nose dive? The beignet are small, grainy and tasteless, but more than that, this place in Jackson Square is a filthy dump! Skip this tourist trap and go to one of the three locations in the Quarter of the far superior spot named Cafe Beignet!
Lives up to the hype – Great beignets, a must try if you're in the area!
Cafe Du Monde is a New Orleans tradition! Finding a table can be harder than finding a parking spot! Lol. I absolutely adore Cafe Du Monde and it is an essential spot that you must visit if you're new to New Orleans! The beignets are always hot and fresh...and even the kid with the biggest sweet tooth will agree that they give you enough powdered sugar with it.

order beignets per person. be sure to cover yourself with napkins unless you enjoy the powdered sugar look
Have a coffee and beignet but please don't wait in line – Stop here and yes have a coffee and beignet b/c of the tradition. Do not go on Sunday morning! You will wait in line and be disappointed, not worth the wait but worth going there when a table is readily available to sit down and experience history, Kind of. Such an important part of New Orleans history; although it feels like China Town since all the servers were Chinese, kind of took away from the experience.. If you expect to feel like you are sitting in a Cafe in P... read more
It was like midtown Shanghai – We wanted an iced coffee. I was leary, as it looks like it caters to people from Bucksnort Iowa, and I was right. We were over-charged, and couldn't argue the point because the staff were all Chinese, and didn't understand what I was trying to say. I left frustrated after paying $10.00 for two iced coffees and a pastry.
