Café du Monde in New Orleans – and its famous beignets – is just a short drive away for those in south Mississippi. However, the well-known café isn’t the only place you can indulge on out-of-this-world beignets. Le Café Beignet on the Gulf Coast serves up sugary sweet beignets that give their famous counterparts a run for their money. Take a look:
Biloxi’s Le Café Beignet is truly one-of-a-kind. First off, it’s housed in an old library, which has been designated a Mississippi landmark.

Just like its outward appearance, the interior, which is filled with antique furniture and unique décor, isn’t what you’d expect to find at a café.

Aside from its looks, the café’s other distinguishing factor is its eclectic menu, which includes made-to-order from scratch beignets as well as an array of delightful dishes.

Made using a generations old recipe, the beignets are exactly as they should be – perfectly crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and…

As delicious as they are, the beignets are just the beginning of the taste bud-pleasing dishes served at the café.

A great early morning visit, the café’s menu features a Southern French Brunch section.

The tasty variety poses only one issue – deciding what to order! If you just can’t make a decision, go with the Southern Shrimp and Grits, which is the number one seller.

The rest of the menu is just as drool-worthy and includes a variety of salads, nearly a dozen gourmet sandwiches and wraps, and an assortment of coffees.

Whatever you order, make sure to save room for some beignets. Better yet, just order the beignets first.
