St. Roch Market Coffee

There are a couple gems here the best by far is Dolma which has consistently good Mediterranean but portions are small. Theres also a Thai chef that runs a few of the popups and when she’s working the food is amazing. I don’t think locals have any clue what they are missing and live to trash talk about this spot. It’s unusually better than the greasy fried food in this area.

You can never go wrong at St Roch Market. Amazing food. Lovely vendors. Fabulous bar. Always new and exciting things to try. Ask Sean the bartender for his banana Old Fashioned. You're welcome.

Nice collection of food vendors here. Pretty upscale for St. Claude. Very comfortable place to hang out for a while, have some apps, cocktails, wine, etc. Handful of tables outside front as well.

St. Roch Market has become one of my go-to spots in the Bywater/Marigny corridor. I usually come for CR Coffee Shop, which easily ranks as one of the best in New Orleans. Their mocha is smooth, rich, and always consistent. Inside, the space feels open and bright with classic columns, high ceilings, and soft lighting that makes it easy to settle in for a few hours. There’s also a new Caribbean spot—Dunkanoo—serving flavorful pasta and creative dishes that make this market perfect for lunch runs. You’ll also find Mediterranean bites, sandwiches, and cocktails at the bar for happy hour. I like to grab a seat by the large windows or lounge on the leather couches in the back when I’m taking a break. The restrooms are clean and easily accessible toward the rear. On nice days, the patio seating gives you a front-row view of St. Claude Avenue’s energy. Overall, this is one of those rare places that fits any mood—coffee, work, lunch, or a relaxed evening drink. A neighborhood staple that deserves to be around for a long time.

Great place to grab good food & catch a relaxing vibe! My fave is the Junkanoo cafe. They have a beautiful patio area and it’s a nice option for folks who may be traveling in a group, but people have different tastes in food. They’ve got a wine bar and desserts too! Highly recommend 😁
