We had a bit of a wait, but the friendly staff made up for it. After a 15-minute wait, our food took around 45 minutes to arrive. The drinks were a highlight – the mimosa and Irish coffee were both delicious!

As for the food, the truffle fries were a standout, earning a solid 9/10. However, the chicken and waffles were a letdown, with the dish being overly sweet and the waffle overcooked (6/10). Unfortunately, the shrimp wrap was also disappointing, with only six tiny shrimp in it (4/10).

Overall, the experience was decent, but the kitchen could work on speeding things up and refining their dishes.

We had a pleasant experience at French Press. The ambience was lovely and vibrant, especially during brunch hours. It does get crowded, so we had to wait about 25 minutes for a table. Since we had a baby with us, the table felt a bit small and cramped.

That said, the food made up for it. While not completely authentic, the chicken and waffles were absolutely delicious. The chicken was incredibly crispy and had a flavorful glaze that hit just right. I also loved their latte – smooth and rich. The classic breakfast was simple but well done.

Overall, it was a decent brunch spot with great food and a cozy vibe.

This was our first time eating here. We drove in from Alexandria LA. We started off with 2 appetizers the truffle fries and the praline bacon. They both were delicious. My friend and I ordered the Cajun Benedict. Toasted French bread, boudin patty, American cheese, 2 poached-medium eggs topped with our chicken & andouille gumbo. We both enjoyed our meal. It was quite delicious. Our other friend ordered the chicken and waffles. Fried chicken strips tossed in LeBlancs Cane Jelly on top of a cheddar waffle. She enjoyed her meal as well. I had a POINSETTA mimosa and the had the french press mimosa. Both drinks were great. Our server was very nice and pleasant. We didn’t want for anything. She made us feel cared about. The atmosphere was calming very peaceful to eat here. I would recommend coming here to eat again.

Perfect lunch experience. The smell of the restaurant alone will have your mouth watering. Greeted by friendly staff and seated quickly. Kind-hearted servers took great care of us keeping our coffee cups full and going over all our options. The boudin biscuits is a must try! ☕️

My husband and I arrived at 1pm with no cars in the parking lot. We walked in and was spoken to and sat quickly. There was no one in there. We were given waters and I ordered a small French pressed coffee. We ordered quickly. I ordered a small french press wedge salad that had fried chicken strip. My husband ordered the Breesus Boudin biscuits. My French pressed offer arrived. He explained how to use it. But, when I poured it tons of grounds came out. We asked our waiter, he said he could remake it. That sometimes the filter messes up. I still drank one cup of the coffee, which was great besides the grounds.
Our food arrived within 10/15 minutes. It came out quickly and it was AMAZING. My chicken was fabulous. The salad was beautiful. It was the perfect size. My husband’s potatoes and biscuits were great. Service and the entire place was amazing. Will definitely try again.

This a great place, not as authentic I am sure as others around. The food was decent. Shrimp was a bit fishy to me, the gumbo was good, the potatos were basic, and the beignets were superb. I felt like the drinks were a bit strong not that my fiance complained, but I don’t care for the straight taste of alcohol. The wait was a bit long but not awful. It’s a tight cozy establishment. Not bad.

This new French Press is really nice! Very clean, friendly staff. I’ve eaten at the bar with a friend twice because it was so busy, which we were good with! I got the Breesus which I actually found to be dry, while my friend got the Croque Madam sandwich which looked amazing AND tasted amazing! We ordered the large french press in. The coffee is truly so delicious! The bar drinks look amazing too, No, I haven’t tried them because I can’t drink in the morning. Lol

On our second visit we ate at the bar again, which has a nice bustling fun vibe. The coffee was amazing again, so I appreciate the consistency. I ordered the wedge salad which was pretty good, but also a bit dry and needed more dressing. And not actually a wedge at all no iceberg, no blue cheese, but a great salad. My friend got the sauce piquant and it had great flavor, but it was extremely rich, kind of a big meal to be all one deep smokey flavor. It would benefit from a little variation.

All in all I think the atmosphere, the staff and the quality of the food will keep us coming back to discover our favorites!

I had the pleasure of dining here for a birthday celebration. The aesthetic and atmosphere is definitely a vibe. I ordered 4 rounds of The Grand Mimosa that’s mixed with Grand Marnier . I also ordered the breakfast sandwich but inside a wrap with a side of potatoes 10/10. Also, I just wished they had a bigger building that accommodate large tables like we had and also more servers .

Great food and very attentive wait staff! Irish coffee, catfish bites, the breakfast sandwich, the classic breakfast, and a very large pancake. We really enjoyed our breakfast and will be back soon!

My first time at this location, and I really liked it a lot! Much more spacious and better parking compared to the downtown location (which makes sense). I ordered the Breesus boudin biscuits with potatoes while my friend had the crab cake benedict with potatoes, and everything was great!!! What made it even better was the “free 2 mimosas to medical personnel” Monday-Friday 7am-2pm! Offered at both locations!!! So make sure to go at that time if you qualify!
