Petite Rouge Cafe
3146 Calhoun, New Orleans, LA
Crema's Take
“This charming New Orleans spot has earned serious loyalty for good reason: the talented baristas craft both comforting classics and creative seasonal drinks like their standout king cake latte with genuine care. Julie and her team go beyond the usual coffee shop experience, whether you're grabbing a quick espresso, settling in for a slow afternoon, or even enlisting them to design a custom drink menu for a special event. The welcoming atmosphere and thoughtful touches—like hosting local bakery pop-ups in their back studio—make Petite Rouge feel less like a caffeine pit stop and more like a neighborhood gathering place run by people who actually love what they do.”

We had Petite Rouge Coffee Truck at our wedding and it was one of the best decisions we made! Julie worked with us to create a custom drink menu specifically for our wedding, which made it feel so unique and personal for our guests. The coffee was absolutely delicious, and people were lining up all night! Beyond the drinks, Julie herself made the experience so special. She brought such a fun, warm energy to the night and was incredible with our guests. The whole setup was beautiful and professional, and it added such a memorable touch to the celebration. If you’re thinking about booking Petite Rouge for an event or wedding, do it. It was a huge hit and we couldn’t recommend them more!
I tried the king cake latte and it was delicious. I do need to come back to try their comprehensive menu though. I got the coffee truck, however I want to come in person to experience how it is in person.
I was in the area for an appointment and needed a coffee. I'm so glad I came here. This place is a must visit and if you live in the neighborhood you shouldn't be going anywhere else. The lady at the register had a cheerful warm smile, the coffee she recommended is fantastic and the cookie that is chocolate and NOT Oatmeal raisin😁 is delicious. I had to buy another one to take to my son. The inside is clean and welcoming. I can definitely see myself spending time alone here. My not so great day just got so much better.
Best coffee shop in town, best staff in town, definitely the best coffee and the owners are wonderful. Atmosphere makes you feel at home; coffee and the baristas keep you coming back, they are beyond great. Petite Rouge is a gem of NOLA; I'd give them 10 stars if I could.
Petite Rouge Cafe is a cute coffee shop with what appears to be a small studio in the back for meetings and pop-ups (thanks to Not Too Fancy Bakery for popping up). The latte I ordered was delicious. She even did some art on the latte. Tiny, but delicious. Service was warm and cheering as well. Only downside was the coffee top looked a bit dusty. I had to remove it to drink my coffee. Definitely clean those off. I do recommend Petite Rouge Cafe and I will return.
