Crema's Take
“Teddy's trades on its elegant Waldorf Astoria location and charming décor rather than reliable food—reviewers consistently report overpriced, inconsistent dishes (dry oatmeal, doughy beignets that don't taste authentic) and a vibe that feels more about the hotel's five-star aesthetic than the coffee or pastries. Service can be genuinely warm, but that doesn't rescue the core problem: you're paying premium prices for subpar execution on the basics. Skip it unless you're staying at the hotel and need breakfast without leaving the building.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu.

Today’s café was gorgeous and the service was incredible. Even at 7 AM, The staff was happy, helpful, and ready to go. Even the staff outside the building were friendly and helpful, calling out to us from across the street to ask if we were lost. The coffee and breakfast tasted…
A friend of mine comes to New Orleans several times a year and told me I needed to go to The Roosevelt. When I come for Christmas I will definitely be back because I bet it is absolutely stunning! The lobby is beautiful and you can feel the history in this place! I went for a…
