About this place

Cafe du Monde is one of New Orleans' most famous food experiences: beignets, cafe au lait, powdered sugar, and the open-air bustle of the French Market. It is a destination where the ritual matters as much as the food.

Trivia

The original French Market coffee stand dates to the 19th century and has become synonymous with New Orleans beignets.

Visiting tips

Bring cash or confirm current payment options. Powdered sugar is part of the experience; dress accordingly.
