Lovage

This coffee shop was in the lobby of the Ace Hotel, and I can't say enough about it.

First, the space is absolutely gorgeous, with such a welcome, peaceful. vibe. There are plants everywhere, and while I can't necessarily grow plants, I love seeing them.

We stopped for coffee and beignets after our 5K, and while they weren't the best beignets in all of New Orleans, they were just the the thing. The coffee was incredible, though. There were several themed specials, and I had one with some dark chocolate, strawberry puree and milk, which was just lovely.

The seating area was cute and we got to watch the market set up in the adjoining event space, so it gave us direction for when we were ready to head out. I could envision reading or working in this space while enjoying coffee on another trip.

Such a cute coffee shop! Was happy that it was easily accessible to Hotel Ace next door during our stay. Do recommend the coffee here.

The ambiance in this coffee shop is very nice. Lots of greenery and art in the building. I am not recommending it as it took over 20 mins of waiting for a cappuccino and I ended up walking out of there without one. It was not very busy.

This coffee shop has such a cute aesthetic! I'm a plant girl so I love all the greenery and the beautiful view outdoors, plus the lighting from the large windows. There is a small library so that you can grab something to read while enjoying your drink, and games for entertainment. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Be sure to stop in and you'll love it also!

Great vibe, decent coffee, friendly service.

The seating area in the coffee shop spills into the lobby of the Ace Hotel. There are a number of tables, couches, and arm chairs and, with the high ceilings and open floor plan, it makes for a nice spot to spend some time. My limited interactions with the staff were pleasant.

The coffee is stumptown. So, not great, but consistent and better than Starbucks or Pete's and often better than small shops that are roasting their own beans. Stumptown is always a little darker flavor palate than my preferences, but if you are in to more developed roasts or espresso with milk, you'll be happy.

If you need a coffee, it is hard to go wrong with stumptown. If you are looking to explore single origins, lighter roasts, and new processing methods, go elsewhere.

This coffee, tea and beverage spot is adjacent to the Ace Hotel and is a very cool place to grab a beverage and chill out ! There is minimal seating inside and you can grab a guitar if someone isn't already plucking on it. The real crown jewel is the great room inside the Ace Hotel ! A must place to checkout and enjoy your cup of Joe or beverage. This was a great place to hangout, take in the ambience and cool tunes blasting through the speakers - Al Green's, "Love & Happiness" is rockin' right now ! This would be a great place to checkout for happy hour or drinks later at the bar that is also here. Oh I forgot to mention what I ordered - ha ha.... They have several coffee and a limited set of tea options. I decided to have one of the specialty iced drinks that contained matcha and pineapple juice. It was very hydrating and good. This place gets 5 stars for the ambience !

Very nice atmosphere near the plants and the windows (in the corridor in the back, it's a bit more oppressing, but they have power outlet). Fits in the vibe of the "faux-welcoming" ace hotel (which looks a bit too stylish to be really welcoming, or is that just me?).
Reasonable, multiple options for breakfast, but everything you eat is surrounded in plastic or disposable cups and the general ambiance is more "get it done gracefully in style" than "super friendly welcoming", and there is not really a gastronomical quality to justify it fully ;).

Full disclaimer: I didn't have coffee here as it was late in the day. However, this place spoke to me on so many levels.
From the plants ( I have a collection of a few hundred) which are healthy, to the welcoming room, it is a nice comfortable space to relax. This place is love and feels like home!

This is on my list to return to!

We stopped by for a cup of coffee. Nice decor. There is a nice quiet room behind the cafe. Some people are working on computer. Next to the cafe, there is a huge space with lots of seating. Nice furniture and decor. It must be Ace hotel lounge, but connected to the cafe and we enjoyed some time there to relax. I ordered cold brew. It was strong and just the way I like it. They had Mardi Gras colored beignets. ( I visited Mardi Gras time) We enjoyed our time there!

Pretty good grab and go options especially their chicken salad croissant sandwich. Coffee is also strong especially for people heading to a conference at the convention center
