I'm writing this review mostly to counter the complaint about the customer's dog below. Your kids aren't touching the dog, so they won't have an allergic reaction to the dog. If the dog is quiet and not barking or jumping on anything, I'd much rather give my business to a shop with a quiet dog than one with loud and rambunctious children. In fact, children have disrupted my meal at various places *much* more often than dogs, including non-service dogs, so maybe you should get over your prejudice. A restaurant can be clean with a dog in it and as long as they clean up at the end of the day, your children won't have an allergic reaction to a dog on the other side of the cafe.

I frequently visit this coffee shop, and I have to express my disappointment with the consistent presence of a customer's dog. It's unsettling that the establishment allows this, as it compromises cleanliness. My kids have allergies to dogs, and we have to leave every single day because of the allergies we get. It's inconsiderate and rude, especially considering it's not a service dog. Another couple also expressed discomfort with the presence of the dog. I hope the management addresses this issue promptly for the well-being of all customers, especially kids.
*UPDATE* I'm updating this review mostly to counter the response above. While I appreciate your perspective on the matter, it's essential to consider that allergies can be triggered by airborne particles and not direct contact. Look, it's not rocket science. Having a dog in such tight quarters is just plain inconsiderate. I don't care if the dog is quiet and well-behaved; it's still a pet, not a human. The seating arrangement is so cramped that it's like playing Russian roulette with allergies. Maybe some of us don't want to risk using an epipen just because someone can't bear to be without their precious furball.
Comparing kids to dogs is absurd. Last time I checked, children don't shed fur and dander that can trigger allergic reactions. So, spare me the false equivalencies. If the coffee shop wants to cater to dog owners, fine, but they should also consider the comfort and health of those who don't want to share their space with animals. It's not prejudice; it's about basic hygiene and common courtesy.
I regularly come here for my mocha cappuccino and granita coffee and I try to make it on Sunday afternoons for the best atmosphere and service

First time at PJ. God only knows how picky I am with my coffee. I tried the café au lait. So much on point as matter of ratio and how smooth when it is right roasted coffee grains . I am going to visit this company in New Orlean. And be back at my local in Hattiesburg. Go PJ .

PJ's has some great seasonal coffees, hot or cold. But I go for the beignets. If you have ever had a Cafe du Monde beignet, these are a close second without having to drive to New Orleans. These fried pieces of dough covered with powdered sugar are melting your mouth wonderful. Just don't eat them in front of a fan. They have other treats too.
