BRUNCH, THE NEW ORLEANS WAY
New Orleans takes brunch seriously, and so do we — minus the white tablecloths and the line down the block. District is counter-serve: order at the register, grab a seat inside or on the patio, and your food comes to you hot. No reservations, no waitlist apps, no judgment if you order a donut "for the table" and don't share it.
WHAT'S ON THE BRUNCH MENU
Scratch-made everything. Buttermilk biscuit breakfast sandwiches, the Gonzo Boudin Brunch Bowl with smoked gouda grits, hot chicken on a honey butter French toast biscuit, chorizo-bacon breakfast tacos, and pancakes worth photographing. See the full breakfast & brunch menu for everything we're serving.
Every brunch pairs with espresso drinks and chicory cold brew from our own Cool Kids Coffee, and small-batch donuts made fresh throughout the day. Our Elmwood and Downtown Diner locations also pour mimosas, beer, wine, and brunch-friendly cocktails.
