Amore Bakery and Cafe
307 Huey P Long Ave, Gretna, LA
Crema's Take
“This charming New Orleans-adjacent bakery wins hearts with its elegant French touches—think chandeliers and classic décor—paired with genuinely excellent pastries and a cozy atmosphere that makes lingering feel like the whole point. Their breakfast offerings, from peach Danish to croissant sandwiches, arrive at reasonable prices alongside carefully made traditional coffee drinks, all delivered by staff who somehow stay efficient even during the holiday rush. It's the kind of place where locals gather not just for the quality pastries and coffee, but because the whole vibe says you're meant to slow down and stay awhile.”

First time having a Peach Danish and it was delightful and the place it's also a vibe! Im excited to go back!
The service, especially for being height of the holidays was great. Efficient and fast as it could have been for what we ordered. Atmosphere was great cozy decorations were cute, iconic, classic Christmas. It was the perfect start to thr night for seeing the lights down Huey P. Long. Over all the coffee was a 7/10. The pastries were an 8/10. It was an overall great experience especially for the holiday season.
They've managed to get everything right at this beautiful bakery/Cafe From the moment you walk in the door past the gorgeous French chandelier, you know you've come to the right place. It has lovely French inspired decor coupled with divine pastries. Our meal was delicious and well presented and the staff were very pleasant and attentive. Kudos to them. It's a great place to meet a friend for lunch. We'll be back for sure.
The pastries were good. It is a nice little place with a good breakfast croissant sandwich at a reasonable price. The place is located across the street from the Gretna Farmers Market. This made parking hard to find on a Saturday. I would imagine if we went on a weekday, we might be fighting parking for the courthouse. We plan on going back during the week to try it again. We liked the atmosphere and the people who worked there were very friendly.
This place is an absolute must stop if you’re ever in the Gretna Area. The customer service is amazing and the coffee and pastries are even better! You will not be disappointed you stoped by. They have perfected the simple coffee for people like me and the complex drinks that my spouse had. The cinnamon Roll and Biscuits are an absolute must try.
