Most people don’t even know that the New Orleans neighborhood, Navarre is even called that. They assume it’s a part of Lakeview or Mid-City right off the bat. It’s quiet, unassuming, and tucked away. While Navarre is mostly residential, there are some fabulous local businesses waiting for you to find them!
Located directly behind Delgado, Cafe Navarre has been serving up breakfast, lunch, and dinner to neighborhood folks for 12 years. They are an order at the counter kind of spot, catering to residents and students in the area. Cafe Navarre has that “stick to your ribs” kind of comfort food. Hearty breakfast options, sandwiches, and salads are on their menu – plus, brunch on the weekends! Grab a spot outside to enjoy a bloody mary, or their most popular menu item, the roast beef po-boy.

This Navarre staple has been open since 1965. Lots-A-Luck is a sacred hangout for neighborhood folks since it’s off the radar. (And they like it that way!) Tucked away in a residential area, it’s easy to miss but worth the trip. They have a very laid back, chill atmosphere where everyone in the neighborhood is a regular. Cheap drinks, pool table, and TVs – they have everything you need. Lots-A-Luck is pup friendly and you’re free to bring in your own food. During Saints games, they grill out back on the patio. Just don’t forget to bring the potato salad for sharing!
