Rue De La Course
1140 S Carrollton Ave, New Orleans, LA
Crema's Take
“Housed in a converted New Orleans bank with soaring ceilings and a charming loft (complete with the original safe), Rue De La Course manages to feel both spacious and intimately cozy, making it the perfect refuge for lingering conversations or focused work. They take their craft seriously, grinding their own beans and baking pastries in-house while offering a curated selection of local-flavored syrups, and the baristas bring genuine warmth to every order. It's a beautifully nostalgic spot that honors old New Orleans while serving some genuinely excellent espresso-focused coffee.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu.

Beautiful inside!!!!! They grind their own beans and bake their pastries in house (also offer large selection of local flavored syrups). Environment was very welcoming and building just has that old time charm. Can’t wait to go back. P.S., don’t forget to pay for your street…
Good coffee and very open and airy atmosphere, lots of tables to sit at, there’s even a loft. From what I can understand it’s in an old bank, which is kinda cool, the safe is upstairs in the loft, there tall ceiling and huge windows. Definitely a good place to come do some work…
