The place is super cute. The ceiling was an art piece all on its own. Had hot coffee with their frittata. It was okay. Not what I was expecting after having Avenue Cafe frittata. I did enjoy the fresh vegetables in it though. My husband had their blood orange juice ( bottled) which was very good and the broken egg sandwich. Personally I liked his meal better than mine. But the staff was wonderful and it’s a great vibe.

I did a lot of good eatin’ during my week in New Orleans, but I must say that breakfast at Silver Whistle Cafe was a standout meal! The atmosphere was delightful – historic charm with just enough modern taste. The coffee was some of the best I had in NOLA. Even seemingly simple dishes had a remarkable quality; for instance, the breakfast parfait was perfection. I usually don’t order this sort of dish in a restaurant since it’s easy to assemble at home, and prepared versions are usually too sweet. But this was better than any parfait I’ve ever made! The granola tasted homey and intensely nutty, and was layered with thick unsweetened yogurt and fresh fruit. The balance between crunchy/creamy and tangy/sweet was ideal. The egg white frittata didn’t sound especially exciting on paper, but it was amazingly flavorful while still being light. And again, the textural counterpoint offered by fresh greens and radishes made things interesting & balanced. The service was speedy and friendly, too. Overall, it was an easy-going and lip-smacking start to the day!

Quiet little cafe in the bottom of the Ponchatrain hotel. Really good coffee. The broken yolk sandwich is tasty. Cheddar grits just right. Opens at 7am.

A historic wonder brought back to life and worth it just for the gorgeous interior (also check out the bar across the hotel lobby as it’s hand painted bayou murals are fabulous too).
The grits are stone ground and substantial. A true historic recipe that makes them absolutely delicious without adding cheese or anything else. I loved them. Also the hash browns are cooked in duck fat and delicious. Don’t write them off.
I had the pimento cheese omelette because weight gain be damned, I want a decadent culinary adventure, and I was in no way disappointed.

We asked the girl at the register a quick question and she rolled her eyes, then we sat down and asked her a question about “jar breakfast “
Apparently it’s breakfast served in a jar. When she was explaining this to us it was with a nasty face and it was like pulling teeth. YEA, KEEP YOUR ATTITUDE AND YOUR JAR BREAKFAST !!!

Quite disappointing service. I was eager to have breakfast here as my last experience here in 2018 was wonderful, but the second time lacked the charm. 35 minute wait for cold eggs, and the grits that I’d ordered weren’t accompanied (nor was the lemon I’d asked for my water and my friend’s herbal tea). My friend ordered a simple toast. The toast was served cold and took 35 minutes. My other friend received his complete order, but after having waited so long for our food, he had to get a to-go box.

From what I could see of his grits (since mine never arrived) they were quite dense and served in a lump—looked more like a scoop of ice cream. There were two service members taking and serving orders, and neither seemed particularly concerned about the wait time or our dissatisfaction with the service. Our server brought the lemon with the check.

It wasn’t unusually busy. I’d hate to think that service was intentionally bad to discourage black patrons from returning, but I wouldn’t be surprised. My friends and I are all professionals, but we were dressed casually.

Unfortunately, I would not dine here again.

The egg white frittata was full of perfectly cooked veggies, seasoned to perfection and spritzed with lemon…… Bright, light, yet filling…. Did I say perfect?!

I had to get it to go, but if you can stop in and sit down I think you’ll be glad you did.

The person at the counter gave me a quick run down of which foods would travel best and was kind & helpful.
