Café Cour

Came here for lunch after a graveyard tour and absolutely loved it. Situated inside the historic New Orleans Collection, it was a bit hard to find but absolutely loved it. We got the bbq pork and pane cunzatu and they were great. They came with a side salad. Recommend if you're in the area.

"Meh"The odd, hard to find location, limited menu, and lack of indoor seating make this one of the less frequented spots in the Quarter. It's hard to figure out how they stay in business.PROTIP: skip the restaurant and spend your time at "The Shop" - it's seriously one of the best museum stores in the country.

Tucked away in the courtyard of 520 Royal St, also known as the "Bruletour Courtyard", Café Cour is run by the folks at Carmo and provides a lovely selection of beverages and light eats in the heart of the French Quarter. It shares the address with the Historic New Orleans Collection's most recently opened museum space and serves as the Museum Café.They offer pastries, coffees and tea, lunch options, salads, sandwiches, biscuits that I have heard folks RAVE about. They also have options for vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian and the folks who avoid gluten. The gumbo I had recently was outstanding, and the piperade tart with a little side salad was the PERFECT lunch at a GREAT price, so much so that I had it twice that same week.

What a hidden gem. And I do mean hidden. I've walked this block of Royal hundreds of times without knowing that the perfect spot for a light lunch, coffee, tea or pastry was tucked away in a peaceful courtyard just behind the front building of the Historic New Orleans Collection, which is worth a visit in its own right.I remember reading that the Carmo folks from Julia Street were opening here, but out of sight, out of mind.While visiting the museum yesterday, I finally took the opportunity to grab a quick lunch. The service was spot on. The Peruvian chicken meat pie with slaw was delicious. Great coffee & tea, too. The smell of hot cinnamon rolls coming from the oven have me wanting to return this morning!

Love this place. I had the red beans and rice with vegan sausage and a vegan-modified muffalata sandwich for the win. Highly recommend to any hungry people wandering the French Quarter at lunchtime. My non-vegan father also loved his pork sandwich.

Great cafe located inside of The Historic New Orleans Collection. Dining in the courtyard, friendly employees, good food. I stopped in as I was spending time exploring the collection and I was very happy to not have to go out to find something to eat. I had the white beans with rice, and yellow cake with chocolate icing. Everything was just lovely. I even got a lemon bar to go and the gal working kept it in the refrigerator until I was ready to leave to keep it cool. Great place to eat. And walk around the collection when you are done. You won't regret either choice.

What a lovely courtyard! When I stopped in at the holiday shopping market at HNOC, I realized I was starving. The HNOC cafe to the rescue!I twas a lovely day to eat outside and I enjoyed the delacour salad. It was HUGE even without adding a protein. And with the super tasty bellegarde bread and butter a great meal. The beets and the dill dressing were perfect together.Ordering at the counter was easy. And the service was great.

After having some very indulgent meals while visiting New Orleans, I was craving a salad. I'm so glad I found Cafe Cour. I ordered the Habana Salad and added shrimp. They source their ingredients locally, in other words "Farm to Table". The salad was exactly what I needed, fresh and healthy. I was worried the habanero vinaigrette might be too spicy, but it had just the right amount of heat and I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of shrimp.After enjoying a healthy lunch outside in the courtyard of The New Orleans Collection, I couldn't resist the delicious looking baked goods. I ordered the Chocolate Chicory Cookie. It was delicious, the chocolate chips were still slightly melted. Before leaving I visited the galleries on the 3rd floor of the New Orleans Collection. They have free admission!

They also have An array of empanadas, usually a soup of the day, salads, tortillas Hispaniola, and a smattering of sweets to top it all off!Definitely check out this hidden gem

Cafe Cour is so lovely! My friend and I were able to get vegan and non-vegan muffulettas and gumbos. Everything was amazing. This is a hidden gem nestled in a quaint, peaceful, and historic courtyard!
