Cafe Beignet, Canal St
622 Canal St, New Orleans, LA
Crema's Take
“This Canal Street institution captures pure New Orleans joy with its lively atmosphere, live piano music, and that perfect blend of comfort that makes strangers feel like locals. The beignets are the real star—freshly made, generously portioned, and worth arriving early for—paired with thoughtfully made coffee at a counter service setup that keeps things casual and welcoming. The corner location's outdoor seating and late hours (open until midnight) make it ideal for lingering over pastries whether you're celebrating a milestone or just soaking in the city's unhurried spirit.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Open late. Family friendly.

We came here in August for our Daughter's 21st birthday. The Beignets were definitely worth trying. They were a treat. We tried the OG, chocolate, caramel pecan Beignets. Each one was very tasty. The ambiance of the place was nice. Open air concept, not too crowded, cool enough…
We took a short walk from our hotel over to Café Beignet on Canal Street. It’s a cool setup with plenty of outdoor seating. Once inside, we ordered our coffee at one end of the counter. Wifey and I opted for a couple of Cafe Mochas. Wifey got hers with whipped cream, and I went…
