District Donuts. Sliders. Brew. is a breakfast, brunch, and lunch destination in New Orleans. District was founded on a simple idea: great food can be fun. More than a decade later, our team still dreams up twists on classic burgers, sandwiches, and donuts that keep New Orleans coming back. Find us at any of our locations including the Garden District, Lakeview, Elmwood, Arabella, Downtown, and Las Vegas.
We are obsessed with creative handcrafted dishes. Our pastries are baked fresh daily, our biscuits are made from scratch, and our breakfast and brunch menus are prepared entirely in-house, right down to the fillings, glazes, sauces, and sprinkles. Even our coffee is ours: every espresso and cold brew is made with Cool Kids Coffee, roasted by our team in New Orleans in support of Special Olympics Louisiana.
Looking for the best brunch in New Orleans? We serve fluffy eggs, scratch-made biscuit sandwiches, and loaded breakfast bowls. Add a lineup of creative kolaches, breakfast tacos, gouda grits, fancy hash browns, and pancakes (at our Downtown Diner), and you have a menu built for serious brunch people.
We make the breakfast New Orleans keeps coming back for. Our breakfast is never boring. Our pastry team keeps it fresh with creative pastries and donut flavors that change monthly, alongside savory classic breakfast plates. Add on a nectar cream cloud latte and brûléed cinnamon roll on the run, or settle in for a miso-bacon & egg biscuit. We have something for everyone.
Burgers New Orleans craves
Looking for a great lunch? You've found the best burgers in New Orleans. Our house-made black sesame brioche buns are stacked with juicy Angus double patties and topped with scratch-made house barbecues, signature District sauce, slaws, and pimento cheeses. Every burger is made fresh to order in our open kitchens.
Sandwiches & salads
Not in a burger mood? Our chicken sandwiches are available fried, blackened, or spicy. Our fresh salads come with house-made cornbread croutons and citrus-tarragon vinaigrette.
Round out your meal with crispy ancho Brussels sprouts or house-cut waffle fries with addictive jalapeño three-cheese sauce.
For over a decade we have turned fresh-baked dough into New Orleans' most creative donuts.
Think charred pineapple on top of a Pineapple Upside Down Donut, gummy worms and cookie crumbles piled high on a Dirt Cake Donut, or Thai tea cream and boba pearls tucked inside a Thai Tea Donut. Think Lemon Compote-Fresh Blueberry Rolls and a rotating lineup that resets the first of every month. Get your favorites while you can!
Gluten-free in New Orleans shouldn't mean missing out. Our gluten-free cake drop donuts come in a full lineup of flavors, like bright purple Ube Drops, made fresh alongside everything else, so there's always a case of gluten-free options ready to go.
Our glazed, chocolate sprinkle, and cinnamon sugar have plenty of fans too.
Every espresso shot and drip pour at District is made with beans roasted in New Orleans by our sister coffee company, Cool Kids Coffee. Founded in 2018, it's premium coffee from small-batch growers made to perfectly complement District's handmade latte flavors, chicory cold brew recipe, and seasonal specials.
Served from 7am–close daily at every District location, including District Downtown Diner.
When you choose Cool Kids Coffee, you're helping Special Olympics Louisiana athletes compete, grow, and thrive, one cup at a time.
10¢ from every drink purchased and $1 from every bag of Cool Kids Coffee is directly contributed to Special Olympics Louisiana.
Our ice cream flavors include favorites like Sweet Corn Ooey Gooey, "C" Is for Cookie, and a rotating cast of freezer heroes that keep things interesting.
Grab a scoop. Turn it into a milkshake. Have it as an affogato with a fresh shot of Cool Kids Coffee. Order three scoops and tell yourself you're sharing. We are not here to judge.
Our cinnamon rolls are New Orleans legends for a reason. Bigger than your palm and baked fresh, they're finished with a crackly layer of torched sugar. Worth every napkin. Go ahead and lick the box.
Need a little nostalgia? Our warm sea salt dark chocolate cookies arrive soft in the center and slightly crisp around the edges.
And if choosing between cookies and ice cream feels like an impossible decision, meet the Cookiewich: a generous scoop of house-made ice cream sandwiched between two warm cookies. Equal parts childhood memory and delicious challenge.
