Cafe Beignet, Bourbon Street

Beignets are delicious and the ice vanilla coffee was great as well. Plus, full of jazz!

Came for the beignets, my first one ever! I only had time for pick up and ate at my hotel. I received one fluffy piece and 2 thin crunchy pieces. My personal preference would be fluffier one, which before arrive is what I thought all beignets were supposed to be. Walking through the place was a vibe tho, I love the garden statues and greenery, the live music put it all together!

Food was great. Server who took our order wasn't friendly at all but the one who brought our food was great. Atmosphere is good but music is just a little too loud and the chairs are crazy uncomfortable.

Café Beignet offers a calmer and slightly quieter vibe compared to Café Du Monde. The service is attentive and fast, and the staff handle orders to-go very well, packaging the beignets so they stay hot, fresh, and un-messed.

The beignets themselves are delicious, though a bit different from Café Du Monde. They’re lighter and fluffier, closer to a traditional donut texture, while still having a little chew. The portion size is generous, and they also offer variations like chocolate beignets, which adds a nice twist.

That said, I personally prefer Café Du Monde’s beignets for their denser, chewier texture and the generous dusting of powdered sugar. Flavor-wise, Café Beignet is just as excellent — it’s really just a matter of texture and personal preference.

Overall, Café Beignet is an excellent alternative to Café Du Monde, with great service, a slightly calmer atmosphere, and tasty beignets. If you like a lighter, fluffier beignet, this is a fantastic choice. For me, Café Du Monde still takes the top spot, but Café Beignet is a very close second.

This location has live music, its nice to sit and listen outside while enjoying a beignet. You can get daquaris too. Cafe Beignet has many locations, but the music made it great. Better tasting than Cafe Du Monde too.

This place is right next to my hotel, so I went there today. The coffee is great, beignets come out hot and there was a local jazz band - the atmosphere was great!
