Brunch is big business in New Orleans, and Ruby Slipper has been leading the charge with delectable dishes, craveable cocktails, and the finest in Southern hospitality to visitors and locals alike. Co-founded by Jennifer Weishaupt in 2008, Ruby Slipper came from a desire to create a place in Mid-City where friends could come together and find joy in community in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Now, the comfort dishes that once fueled a neighborhood have spread their charm across twenty-six locations across Louisiana, Alabama, Florida, Tennessee, North Carolina, and South Carolina, sharing with neighborhoods throughout the South that New Orleans knows how to do brunch best.
“I am proud of our New Orleans roots, and we love bringing the spirit of brunch and the soul of New Orleans to other parts of the US,” says Weishaupt.
This Spring/Summer, Ruby Slipper has continued its brunch innovations with a cocktail menu that brings the flavor of New Orleans. Try a divine Lavender 75, a succulent whipped pineapple mimosa, or the first time, the Ruby Slipper twist on an Espresso Martini, with cold brew, vodka, and Grind espresso rum. Or if it’s too difficult to choose, enjoy the ‘Taste of Ruby Flight’, featuring a Ruby Mimosa, Morning Margarita, Bacon Bloody Mary, and Boozy Iced Coffee, with a little bit of Southern hospitality in every sip.
