The Beignet Stand
8343 Broadway, San Antonio, TX
Crema's Take
“This beloved San Antonio gem has mastered the art of the humble beignet stand, drawing in families and skeptics alike with pillowy-soft pastries dusted in powdered sugar that somehow taste even better when they arrive fresh. Beyond the iconic beignets, their rotating menu of creative seasonal lattes—like orange blossom with coconut milk—pairs perfectly with their signature powdered bites, all served by genuinely kind staff who make even first-timers feel welcomed into something special. It's the kind of unassuming spot that stops you in your tracks and leaves you planning your next visit before you've even finished your last sip.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. Quick-grab spot. Pastries on the menu. Family friendly.

Every staff member was so kind and patient. Very wonderful. What a lovely sweet treat! Got the basic beignet order with powdered sugar in a 3 count with an orange blossom summer latte with coconut milk. The outdoor seating area was lovely also. So delicious. Thanks for the…
Cute place to stop for a snack. First time here & the woman was very nice answering all of my questions. The menu board doesn’t have all the options listed. There were a few seasonal items available like the tres leches beignet with strawberry sauce, which was the best tasting…
