There are plenty of coffee shops in New Orleans where you can pop in and grab a cup of Joe, but few compare to the unique atmosphere you’ll find at Sacred Grinds. Located smack dab between two of New Orleans’ most historic cemeteries, it may be considered the most New Orleans coffee shop in the city!
You’ll find Sacred Grinds on Canal Street in Mid-City, nestled in between Oddfellow’s Rest and St. Patrick’s Cemetery.
The tiny but mighty shop may be surrounded by the dead, but the coffee here will certainly wake you up.
Known for having coffee so strong that it will wake the dead, Sacred Grinds will also inspire you to pair your brew with a tasty treat (or two).
The folks at Sacred Grinds always have fresh pastries and even some savory options, too.
From donuts and muffins...
...to tamales and savory cruffins, the display case is always full of tempting creations.
They usually have a few vegan and gluten free options, too!
If you're an iced coffee drinker, you'll love the iced coffee here.
The boldest and strongest brew in the city!
After you've stocked up on tasty treats and coffee, head outside to their patio.
The coffee shop overlooks the nearby cemeteries, creating one of the most unique views in New Orleans.
The neighbors are pretty quiet, so feel free to bring your laptop or a good book.
Anywhere else, it may seem strange to enjoy a coffee while overlooking a cemetery, but here in New Orleans?
Just another day at the Necropolis!
