Vegetarian/Vegan Friendly
Most New Orleans restaurants have at least one decent vegetarian item. These restaurants get vegetarian/vegan right.
We love the vegetarian friendly Bánh mì... or totally loaded tater tots. I love the in-house murals and frozen Irish coffee. Eating at the bar ensures listening to Frenchmen Street's Bamboulas club and excellent people watching. They also have on tap Big Easy Bucha (kambucha) infused with vodka. It's a new business partnership, unique to 13 and Molly's at the Market.

Monkey Monkey is a terrific, MidCity coffee house to focus for a few hours on that one task. It isn't as busteling as its neighbor coffee house, The Bean Gallery, and sometimes you need that. Pop your headphones in, knock out your mission, and get back to relaxing.

This mighty, little store has supplied French Quarter restaurants with wine and specialty liquors for decades. You read that correctly. If a customer asks for a specialty bottle in the downtown area and the restaurant needs it ASAP, they call Vieux Carre’. You will talk to an owner. This store offers the best service and widest variety hands down.
