This is an absolute gem of a place. I’m in town for work and a friend referred me to it. I’m very familiar with the area but didn’t know it had come into business. I do enjoy making and trying breakfast sandwiches – this was comfortably the best I’ve ever consumed. Grade A cafe au lait. They’ve kept the lovely patio from the old place. It’s just so amazing when skilled, caring people run a small business like this. Thank you so much to everyone involved.

Fantastic place with lots of fresh made pastries. Went for coffee with a friend early in the morning. Great atmosphere with super friendly staff. Quiche was really big and really delicious. Tiny pickles as a garnish for the quiche was a nice touch. Will be back there soon for sure.

I love Le Ponce. I treated myself to a quick breakfast on my birthday at the beginning of the month. I love their new expanded menu. I preferred the full English. It was delicious with the full strap bacon. Only criticism was there were no mushrooms and the tomato wasn’t cooked. Still delicious though, and the only place I know of in NOLA metro you can get a full English and proper hot cup of tea. Their pastries are consistently delicious and I’m so happy to see them expanding their breakfast menu. They’re a part of the Degas group and it’s so great to have a “Le Ponce” aka “spot” for gentle mornings in the neighborhood.

I got a latte and breakfast sandwich. They were both good. The place is small but has plenty of covered and uncovered outdoor seating. I def recommend this place. Staff was friendly as well.

We were SO excited to try Le Ponce this weekend (it just opened) and it did not disappoint!! The breakfast sandwiches are fantastic. The quality of each ingredient makes a huge difference. We got one breakfast sandwich with bacon, scrambled eggs and goat cheese, and another jambon and brie (both to die for!!!)
We’ve lived in this area for a few years and were so sad when the last coffee shop closed its doors. So happy to see this place revitalizing the neighborhood with great food and coffee, at a reasonable price point. I look forward to many more catch ups and breakfasts at Le Ponce 🙂

What a special little spot – gives old school local coffee shop vibes, and has such a cute little patio with plenty of plugs for working a bit. Everyone who works there is down to earth, friendly, efficient. Food is freshly baked/made (although I do wish there were one gluten free option available) and coffee is great. Get yourself some chantilly cream on top, what a TREAT!

Didn’t try any food but for coffee good prices and selection. The espresso is pretty good. Good location and family friendly. New locally owned business I hope people give a chance!

The owner is lovely, a rare gem; very friendly and just an all around beautiful soul. She hails straight from Paris, so she brings a taste of France to NOLA. The vibe is warm and inviting. My friend thoroughly enjoyed her cafe au lait and pastries. My coffee with ginger syrup was absolutely delectable! I will be back 🙂

Rolling out of bed with no power after the latest hurricane, we were very pleased to see our new neighbors open for business with smiling faces! An iced coffee and a delicious jambon tartine made me momentarily forget about the fridge clean out awaiting me at home. Seems like the beginning of a great relationship! Seriously though, the service and price were as good as the food, happy to have Le Ponce in the neighborhood!

Very cute inside. Got a latte and it was ok and a little pricey (75¢ extra for oat milk), I liked that it was in a shop mug. The tea my friend got was a little pricey but came with the experience (fancy tea bag and teapot)
