The Original Cafe Du Monde Coffee Stand was established in 1862 in the New Orleans French Market. The Cafe is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It closes only on Christmas Day and on the day an occasional hurricane passes too close to New Orleans. Cafe du Monde's beignet mix lets you bring a tasty New Orleans treat to your kitchen. Make your own café au lait with CDM coffee and also try Café Du Monde Beignet Mix for a wonderful New Orleans breakfast.
