Backatown Coffee Parlour

Amazing! Kind staff, fantastic service, great vibe. We stopped in yesterday before our cemetery tour, and are back today even though it's nowhere near the rest of our plans for the day! Just too good to stay away. Chai latte is perfect, and my mom says the same about the regular latte. Get a cranberry cream cheese scone, you won't regret it!

I keep finding new places around me and so happy about coming across this cafe. First of all the rose pistachio donut was all I needed to make my day. It is divine. I definitely want to come back to try their lemon blueberry cake. Outstanding customer customer care and I truly appreciate the artwork. The place is spacious and has great seating if you want to do any work on your computer or just relax with some friends while you have your coffee. This is officially my new favorite coffee spot.

This place is a great place to work or study! They have great food (breakfast/brunch/sandwiches/pastries), great coffee, and the people/workers are very nice! The atmosphere is light and open, there’s low background music that plays, and usually there’s some small talk that’s not too distracting. I love this place! There’s street parking that’s usually full, so you may have to park a little further which can be slightly sketchy, but that’s really the only downside.

If you are visiting NOLA I suggest you do as I do and bee line here straight from the airport because I am so glad that I did. Coffee and espresso drinks are sooo excellent, one can tell they source from a high quality bean and this man can make a serious latte. The man working behind the counter on this glorious Friday morning does it all, idk how he does it! But it is definitely a talented art he has perfected— making drinks and food at the same time. Perhaps a gift from God? The line doesn’t even get backed up. He is blessed. Idk if he is the owner or not but he should be. I got the avocado toast- highly recommend. Light, simple, tasty, beautifully assembled with care and patience. The man even brings it to your table— again how DOES he DO it! His natural poise and cool as a cucumber manner is more than just admirable. I’ve seen many ‘professional’ chefs lose their sh** over an avocado toast but this man doesn’t skip a beat. Once I noticed he was the only one working I felt a little bit bad for ordering a more involved menu item but I am so glad I did because it was delicious. I tipped on my first order but I need to order something else so I can tip him again this man is other worldly. Oh good another employee is here! He is so happy to see him. Love. Time to try the quiche. I love this place! Everyone come here!!!!
