Verna is a specialty café and neighborhood bar in a house on Louise Avenue — the one you might remember as Café Coco. In the morning, we serve specialty coffee and a menu built from Japanese comfort food and New Orleans creole tradition. In the evening, the patio lights up, the cocktail program leans into amaro, and the Backbar opens through the back — a rum-focused neighborhood bar with its own energy and weekly events.
