The flagpole

For ambiance, Flagpole NOLA is such a cute coffee shop. On a corner along a charming street, a Cuban man runs the cafe making strong coffee and pastries. Parking along a nearby street, I ordered a hazelnut latte. It was made with love, but wasn't my favorite latte. However, the experience was great from service to space.

Cute place, lousy coffee. I think their espresso machine is dirty because the coffee tastes like Starbucks before they went to their super automatic, super annoying machines. Also, any place buried in Torani syrups either makes hordes of frappechino or is trying to run a shave ice business. Neither of these things relates to a good cup of coffee, sadly. Nice people, cute building. Get your coffee elsewhere.

This place is so cute. I wish there was an indoor section to hang out, but obviously there's no room for that. I had one of the best coffees I've had in a long time, and the employee was ridiculously nice. I think he said thank you five times.

Day 7 of NOLA Coffee Crawl Creative use of space that brings together the community. They have an abbreviated menu and hours for now, but the current offerings are still worth the trip. Park your Blue Bike here and sit at one of the outdoor tables. Bring Fido and he'll get a tasty treat! I tried the iced latte, plain, and I'm glad I did- the coffee had a smooth, complex flavor that didn't need help. Also got a fruit turnover that I think was guava...flaky and delicious! Will come back for a snoball or smoothie sometime soon, and you should too!

Best Cuban coffee in NOLA. Great stop while riding the Esplanade Ave bike route to the Quarter. You can't miss the shop. An old 1950's Chevy BelAir is parked on the street in front of the shop. I always get the Cortadito and a croissant. Andreas always has a smile and a friendly disposition.

We were excited to try New Orleans style shaved ice but this place was a bit underwhelming. Parking is street parking only, prices are high, and honestly not the best shaved ice I've ever had. I would pass and try some of the other places nearby.

Everytime I'm in town I come to this place for coffee. I'm in a hotel with a whole kitchen and I won't touch the hotel coffee. The quality, The customer service, The location!!! All so perfect and just a great spot to come have a coffee, relax, read a book, and enjoy the beauty if this street & place ! I found this place after moved to New Orleans and for 7 years ( not sure when they opened) I deprived myself of perfectly made coffee. Side note: I'm not a pastry person or into sweets in general but I've heard nothing but great things about their Sno balls & Pastries

I finally got their snowballs! I got a raw pineapple snowball with condensed milk and it was AMAZING! I usually never finish my snowballs because they can be too sweet, but the raw pineapple juice( or concentrate or whatever they use) was perfect and I finished it so fast. Adding condensed milk is the perfect touch. The snowball is going to be way more expensive then your typical snowball you can get around the city, but the quality is there to justify it.

Divina todo lo que tuvimos el gusto de adquirí, escribo en español para agradecer al dueño, gracias por trasladar nuestras raíces a este gran y maravilloso país, muy agradecida, lo recomiendo 100%

The Cuban coffee you made for me was just amazing. Than you very much! it was a pleasure to speak with you. I will definitely come back to enjoy tasty coffee when visiting Nola again.
