I came here on a girls trip and had the best experience with Kay! She was so kind and helpful with helping me find the best gluten free meal for me. I went with an omelet and potatoes and it was delicious!

I would give 6 Stars if I could. For an early morning breakfast, there is no other option near the French Quarter. Whole menu available for breakfast.. you can get a curry, a salad or traditional breakfast and smoothie / juice. Menu clearly marked for gluten free and nourishing vegetarian options. Very very delicious and friendly service. Fast and low prices considering all the ingredients. Nice decor and truly an oasis! PS, you don’t need to be gluten free / vegan or vegetarian or health conscious to have a great meal here!!

If you're craving a delightful brunch experience in NOLA, look no further than Two Chicks Cafe! This charming spot, founded by two women, offers top-notch service with a personal touch. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by the owner and a team of servers who are not only warm and welcoming but also incredibly attentive to your needs. Now, let's talk about the food - it's simply amazing! I opted for the Vegetable Benedict on gluten-free bread, and every bite was a symphony of flavors. Whether you're a gluten-free enthusiast or just looking for a delicious twist on a classic dish, you won't be disappointed. Just a heads up, they don't take reservations, so plan to arrive a bit early to secure your spot. Trust me, it's worth the extra effort to savor the culinary delights awaiting you at Two Chicks Cafe.
