NEW ORLEANS STYLE
Fresh Beignets
Beignets have a rich history in New Orleans dating back to the 18th century. The word "Beignet" itself is derived from the French term for "fritter." These deep-fried pastries are served hot with a dusting of powdered sugar.
A visit to New Orleans isn’t complete without a serving of Beignets paired with a good cup of coffee. It’s our mission to bring this infamous NOLA treat to neighborhoods across the country that can be enjoyed anytime of the day.
We highly recommend pairing an order of Beignets with our signature Café au Lait, which features our Dark Roast brew with steamed milk.
