Caffé Cottage

Good drink specials and the fries are phenomenal.
Can't miss with loaded fries and an Envie

I've only ever come here for lunch so my review is based mostly on the food. I just want to start by saying the VEGGIE FRIES is hands down one of the best food items I've ever had. Grilled veggies, shredded cheese and blue cheese sauce (i think) on top of seasoned (and a bit SALTY) fries...I literally had to close my eyes and just savor it at some points lol I also ordered spicy wings which weren't really spicy at all but I'm glad it wasn't lol (only options for wings were spicy and buffalo). I love how they use a flour crust with no weird eggy layer under it, tasted very homemade. Another item I tried here previously was the alligator etoufee balls. I'm not super adventurous when it comes to eating different kinds of meat/seafood, but I remember these tasting fine.

The look and the atmosphere is very funky, artsy and hipster. The big bookcase when you walk in along with the desk lamps as table lighting are adorable odes to the UL campus nearby. I'm not usually a fan of low lighting but it works here with the very bright desk lamps and large windows. It's a pretty multifaceted spot as it has a bar, serves coffee tea and breakfast items as well as lunch and dinner items.

If you're a parking-phobe like I am, there is parking directly behind the building off of Coolidge.

My only gripe is I wish they had actual small sides. Sure you can get 7 wings for $8 or a burger for $11 as a meal on its own but the moment you decide you need a little more than that plus a drink you're easily looking at around $20. Of course, the one $ rating can be based on a ton of other things.

Great people, Mr Louis is very nice. Great staff and good food.

The food was great and the atmosphere was great. Try one of the burgers they are amazing or the loaded fries. Highly recommend the Irish coffee. The staff is friendly and it's very clean.

Indie meets punk plus service industry with just the right amount of daily alcoholics and you have Caffe. Not the best but definitely not the worst. The wings are quite delicious. Also the daily drink specials are a quality deal. Solid choice bar if you're not into the frou frou downtown area or you aren't into rocking polos to have a good time.

COLLEGE BAR - 4 stars for that college bar atmosphere. If you're looking for something quiet or classy this might not be the right place. . . That said, decent beer (abita & parish brewing) plus surprisingly good food. Coffee served also if you're just looking to read/study.

Love the atmosphere here. Great outdoor patio, and one half is set up for food & drink with cozy study/work/chill booths. The other side is set up as a bar.

Really cool place. It has free WiFi, a great food menu, a full bar, & coffee bar, and everything is available from when they open at 9am on weekdays and noon on weekends until they close at 2am! They also have seating outside with speakers, fans, & heaters and also front and back parking lots.

Its an experience that isn't to be missed, and it will be what you make of it. Don't lie and say you never wanted to go to the Mos Eisley Cantina watching Star Wars as a kid. Very much a regulars bar and a total dive, but the coffee is the best and the fries are heaven, and the one thing I miss about the time before I found out I have celiac disease.

Great food and alot for my money love this place will be back
