Grocery & markets in New Orleans

Grocery stores and markets help you stock up on everyday food, fresh produce, and pantry staples, and many also sell prepared foods for days when cooking is not in the plan. In New Orleans, many of these shops offer catering trays, casseroles, soups, dressings, and holiday meals, so it can pay to ask what is made in house and what is ordered in. If you need a dish for a gathering, call ahead and ask how much notice they need, especially around holidays when orders fill up fast. Before you go, check the hours on this page, since some markets close early or on certain days, and ask whether they can hold a special order for pickup.
