Binder Alois J Bakery

So sad that this 90 year old bakery closed. A real neighborhood bakery with excellent, unpretentious pastries and breads. Locals always hanging out drinking coffee and the lady behind the counter was real old school New Orleans, a delight to talk to and always recognized us because we would stop in 4 or 5 times a year each time when we visited New Orleans. During a visit last year we walked up only to find the doors padlocked. You can't replace the charm of an old establishment like Alois Binder Bakery with something new. Sad.

Always loved them pre/post Katrina. Family owned and family feel. French bread is great, especially when hot, and their pistolettes are amazing. I love there pastries too.

best shoe sole pastries in a city fulll of good bakeries. Guests at Banana Courtyard B&B New Orleans are served these often. Awesome treat for them.

Excellent little bakery with awesome baked goods. The chocolate doughnuts chocolate yeast doughnuts, not just chocolate covered are great. Their king cakes in season are great and they ship.

I bought a small king cake made by them to bring home to NJ and there was no baby in it. The packaging indicated there would be. This was disappointing because without the novelty of the baby its just an overly sweet coffee cake.

Excellent petit fleurs and mini eclair. Was too intimidated by the sinker, but I convinced a fellow customer to try one out. Happy trails to him!

The doughnuts here are out of this world! Their french bread is the best in the city as well.

Amazing bread. Tint little place, hard to find but worth the trouble

Love this little bakery! The donuts are delicious

Sweet staff. Delicious food. Walking distance from my house.
