The Best Cafes In Baton Rouge Louisiana

It isn’t always easy to score a good cup of Joe. However, if you happen to be in Baton Rouge, finding good coffee should be the least of your worries. There are a number of extraordinary cafes all over the capital city. Here’s some of our favorite.

Garden District Coffee

The Garden District is a historic neighborhood, and the residents expect the best from their local establishments – Garden District Coffee does not disappoint. Their in-house roasted beans deliver a savory flavor, every time. Enjoy a cup of coffee on the patio, taking in the essence of the time-honored neighborhood. The interior is spacious, accommodating occasional live music. For the ultimate experience, try the X-Treme and one of their delicious pastries.

With specials that change daily, it is always a new and delicious experience at Magpie Café. Using only the best ingredients, owners James and Lina Jacobs have raised the bar for what is expected of a café in Baton Rouge.

Brew Ha-Ha

Located in the Goodwood Shopping Center, Brew Ha-Ha opened its doors in 2004 as a simple spot to get a good cup of coffee. However, in 2007, the introduction of their unbeatable cake balls took things to the next level. Since then, the shop has expanded into a café and bakery, with a large variety of options. Order one of their delectable pastries, your favorite barista beverage, and enjoy the sights and smells of this local favorite.
