CC’s Coffee House

This coffee shop used to be my favorite place to lounge at when I was a teenager.
It had been years since I stopped here to grab coffee, but I recently visited this location to pick up something sweet for my sister.
My sister asked me to get her a frozen, peanut butter drink that she typically orders.
When I went in to order it, the baristas explained that they couldn’t oblige that request due to food allergens being left in the blender.
I found it quite insulting given that they have multiple beverages and food products that contain nuts.
Did they mistake me for a fool, or did they not feel like throughly cleaning their blender?
Another thing I find disheartening is that people are allowed to smoke cigarettes right near the door. So be prepared to walk through the carcinogenic fires of hell when you enter this location.
Dogs are also welcome at this location, so if you have small children, keep them close to you seeing as how people do not know how to control their animals. I don’t want my child being attacked by some rabid mongrel, and neither should you.
The inside of this store is somewhat unclean. The bar is almost always sticky, and the milk containers are usually empty, so you’ll need to ask for milk since nobody can be bothered to replace the half and half carafe.
In closing, this coffee shop has fallen from its past glory. Save your money for a place that actually cares about their customers.

–good parking
–friendly staff
–lots of available seating
–good variety in types of seating
–seems to be a neighborhood meeting place
–too cold
–messy customers don’t clean up after themselves

This is in the other wacky strip mall on Metairie Road near the railroad tracks (fun fact it’s on the former location of a car dealership, maybe Packer, and an old drive in). Look for the CC’s in the back corner away from the tracks.
The shop is spacious with lots of indoor and outdoor seating… atlhough don’t sit at the tables for Zoe’s or try to bring Zoe’s into the CC’s…maybe turf battles.
I had quick service and polite baristas. The whole place does look like it needs to be cleaned up a little but maybe that’s just the Christmas rush.

This is my favorite coffeehouse! This baristas are so welcoming and enthusiastic, day in and day out. They are very pleasant taking your order and preparing the drink, even when it is crowded. You see the same employees a lot, so I suspect it is low turnover. I love the taste of a mochassippi, their frozen drinks. They have a lot of flavors, and the sugar free ones taste great. Sometimes they walk around the place handing out small portions of baked goods. Seating is comfortable and very adequate. The location is terrific too. It’s part of the Old Metairie Village, so there is plenty of parking. It is adjacent to Pure Barre, so I love to go after a class (and so does everyone else in the class!) Well done CC’s!

This is my favorite place in GNO to get a cup of coffee. I prefer the mint Mochasippi with soy. They take my high maintenence order without batting an eye. The baristas are friendly and patient with the line that is ever present. They have great breakfast food, including bagals, pastries, breads etc.
Best of all… CC’s is LOCAL!!! Gotta love that!
