This chill cafe on Magazine Street serves a dreamy array of creative donuts and sliders, plus smooth cold-brew coffee on tap to fuel your day.
"District provides an ever-changing selection of innovative, creative, and most importantly, delicious doughnuts to its adoring public. They look as great as they taste, and that's saying something. The locally owned biz now has four locations in the New Orleans area and an all-day cafe downtown, District All Day Delicious." - Eater Staff
"Popular slider and doughnut mini-chain District Donuts is trying something new for its latest restaurant, calling it District All Day Delicious and introducing full-service breakfast, lunch, dinner, and a bar. It opened in September in the former Company Burger downtown, right next to the new Tava Indian Street Food and across from Rouse’s on Girod Street, with a proximity to the Superdome that’s sure to make it a Saints game day hit. The menu is greatly expanded, adding Mexican breakfast dishes, lemon ricotta pancakes, and something called breakfast wings, which utilize breakfast sausage crumbles, to its many doughnut offerings. For lunch and eventually, dinner, burgers join fish and chips, a steak sandwich, and roast chicken, and frozen drinks, cocktails, and ice cream round out the offerings." - Clair Lorell
"Add this cool little spot to the lengthy list of reasons to spend an afternoon traversing Magazine Street. While the rotating roster of from-scratch donuts (everything from classic glazed to slightly out-there savory, bacon-topped versions) is the obvious draw, it’s the small-batch coffee (cold brews are available on tap—yes, really—or in giant glass jugs to take home) that has folks flocking here in droves. And it’s not all carbs and caffeine either: The seasonal slider selection (pulled pork, fried chicken, shrimp Rangoon), which goes into effect at 11 am daily, is pretty impressive. "

"District elevated New Orleans’ doughnut game when it opened in 2013, but ignore its sliders (burger, fried chicken, tofu, and more) and full coffee program at your peril. They now have over a hundred different doughnut variations, including rum caramel blondie, ginger mint julep, and limoncello poppyseed (as well as daily staples glazed, chocolate glazed, and cinnamon sugar). Try breakfast tacos, miso praline bacon biscuit sandwich, or the croque monsieur prepared on a grilled doughnut." - Nora McGunnigle, Clair Lorell
