Columbia Cafe's Orleans Style French Toast
Shreveport-Bossier is home to many locally owned restaurants. Each of them offer something unique that makes our cities special and set apart from any other place. Each of these local eateries has a story, a flavor and a person with a passion for what they do. Columbia Café is not unlike said places however it is different in an extraordinary way.
Located in the heart of the Highland neighborhood and nestled between Centenary College and Byrd High School, Columbia Café is a quaint little bistro that has more than just incredible food to offer. The 1930’s craftsman bungalow has a history that was brought back to life when owner and creative developer, Matthew Linn purchased and restored it in spectacular fashion. Each room of the café has a story from the copper-ceiling sunroom to the hidden private dining room for intimate gatherings.
The atmosphere is comfortable, not unlike coming home after being away for a while, if your home were equipped with a fully-stocked wine wall and incredible artwork from all your most creative and artistic friends. The eclectic collection of antique furniture mixed with unique details, like a mosaic wall that took months to complete, make Columbia Café one of the most distinctive dining venues in Shreveport-Bossier.
Consistent with the atmosphere, the culinary experience is gratifyingly delicious. Combining southern flair with a gourmet spin, the cuisine is spectacular and will please any palate. Serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner patrons can enjoy mouthwatering fare anytime of the day.
