oh come on... who would give café du monde less than five stars? lol just kidding but seriously. I took a three day two night trip to New Orleans which went by way too quick. I got extremely lucky they were five lights down from my hotel otherwise I would have been out of luck. The French quarter location was a bit too far. The staff was very nice and the location was perfect. parking was no problem and neither was seating. They had souvenir shelving with many different to items to purchase like; praline candy, coffee, mugs and etc. The beignets were hands down awesome! I tried two different coffee's. The French press and New Orleans chicory. I preferred the French press. read more

We really enjoyed the beignets here! They remind me of my great grandmother's fried dough. Three beignets come with one order. We came here two nights in a row on our vacation. These beignets are soft like a pillow, with a crispy outside and a wonderfully chewy inside. Topped with a mountain of powdered sugar. How can you go wrong? read more

Great beignets. This is going to be short because the location in Kenner, LA, is to-the-point and so am I. You order and you get good service and good beignets. It's not donuts or cake. Comparisons won't do. If you've never tried them, run the gauntlet big daddy! They are hot and light (I speak of the texture; no nutritional advice here). They are just the right amount of crisp and sweet. Perfect with a cup of coffee. I love the flavor here. read more

Always a good taste of home. Anytime my displaced family comes in town, Cafe du Monde is a staple.

Really nice customer service plus they always make everything fresh when you order it!!

How can you come to New Orleans without a stop at Cafe Du Mond!?! Classic beignets with a soft chewy texture and a (un)healthy dousing of powdered sugar. Tasty coffee too, I prefer mine black but the have their classic cafe au lait. read more

Dont go downtown the lines are ridiculous but this one is near the airport and there were no lines at all. Yummy lots of powdered sugar but fair warning it will get all over your face. Very soft but not very sweet. Served fresh and hot. I had some once I arrived and right before I left. read more

These beignets are supposed to be the best but I honestly wasn't that impressed. They were not light and fluffy :(

Delicious beignets here, though not the best we've had in New Orleans. Still, if you're in the region then definitely treat yourself! read more

Cafe Du Monde - Beignets. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Kenner, Louisiana

Breakfast- Q. When in NOLA for Mardi Gras, where do you eat breakfast at least once? A. Cafe' de Monde Ok, we compromised and didn't eat at the Decatur location but this was close and we had to get somewhere this morrning. Clean, great service and man, you gotta get the beignets and chicory coffee. Both were hot and ready. The powered sugar is so sweet! But get ready for the grease burp! (excuse me) read more

Ok so Beignets were okay.... Hot and fresh but taste wise they were pretty general. And coffee was okay as well. Staff were friendly. read more

This is a must. Beignets are amazing!! Their coffee is strong and perfect. You live by eat, drink and be merry!!

One of my favorite bad, but delicious treats! I can just remember the times I used to take the family out on Sunday after mass and enjoy the nice weather eating some hot beignets drinking a hot cup of café au lait!!!! My kids love it and their kids and their kids and so on..... Now that I'm thinking I dont believe I've met anyone who didn't enjoy a beignet. Taking a car ride downtown to the one by the river is just so relaxing. Definitely gives you the feel of new orleans read more

Our first stop on our crazy food tour, it was pretty much empty at 10am on a Sunday, which was good because we were exhausted after not getting much sleep in a particularly horrible motel nearby. While not as iconic as their French Quarter location, this one sports a drive-thru and no line. The folks working there were friendly. As it was getting warm outside, we opted to try their frozen cafe au lait and they were excellent! read more

We came here because of the Yelp reviews. While the beignets were very good and the French roast coffee was good and not at all bitter this place is way too expensive. The beignets were within reason as far as the price but the price of coffee was outrageous. This was our first stop in a New Orleans area coffee shop, so is $3.57 the going rate for a 16 oz coffee? Or is this a tourist type place? Woman at the register was unfriendly. read more

Sad because the hours say the close at 11pm on Sun-Thurs and 1am Fri-Sat. It's 938pm and we drove by to get a late snack and they're closed

They're like small Elephant ears, if you're big on Powdered sugar then you will love them. Especially with a side of coffee, delicious

It's not like the Cafe du Monde in the French Quarter of old times for sure. Fyi, don't go there if you are alone and handicapped!! I'm on a walker and in the old days the table hops would nearly kill each other trying to get to a customer before some other hop got to it first. But not any more...it was no use in me placing an order to be placed on a self service tray as how can I push a walker and hold a tray especially one with coffee in a cup... but not one of the 6 employees came to my table and asked if they could be of assistance or take my order...everything is self service now. I am surprised that I did not have to fry my own bignet and brew my own coffee! Lucky I was meeting someone who was not handicapped...yet the coffee was lukewarm...but my guy I was meeting went back to the counter and got more lukewarm coffee on top of the now cold coffee in our cups. The facility was clean and a bit cool as the a/c was on with the outside temp at 78 degrees and all the ceiling fans were operating. $11 for 2 coffees and 2 orders of bignets and all self service and the gall to have a "tip can" on the counter too!! Longing for days gone by when people had manners and pride in their work. read more

Tho, the beignets were good, I was very disappointed by the customer service I received. Because I had my college daughter in from Chicago, we stopped her to get her fix. But, after we walked out the door, they locked it as it was time for closing. Within seconds I discovered I had left my camera inside, so I knocked on the window, in hopes of getting my camera which I could see, from the window. There was a guy cleaning who wouldn't even look up, so i knocked until my hand hurt. I then went to the window by the kitchen to see if I get some attention, and tho he saw me, again I was ignored. After what seemed like a lifetime, the last customers in the place came to my aid, tho, even then the staff kept them waiting for quite abit. Just gave me a feeling that they didn't need my business. And yet it looked like a ghost town. Well definetly, find another location next time. read more

The beignets here are amazing. Although it may look crowded, I've never had to wait for a table for more than 5 minutes. We were seated right away. The tables are sticky because of the powder sugar so don't put any valuables like phones on it. Highly recommend. read more

I always go through the drive-thru. It's been fast and efficient! The staff has always been very friendly and quick at getting me out of there! read more

I don't know how you can't love this place. Smack in the middle of the Hustle and bustle. Across the street from the famous Jackson square and in front of the mighty Mississippi. Get your cafe au lait and a serving (3) of beignets and take it all in. It's not always the cleanest and the service isn't always quick but the beignets are ALWAYS hot and delicious. read more

The beignets are worth the wait! Absolutely delicious! Unfortunately, it took a bit for the server to clear tables but the service was exceptional due to the overwhelming amount of people coming in. I highly recommend waiting, you'll love the beignets! read more

Less crowded than the one in the French Quarter. Lots of seating, clean bathrooms, and plenty of cafe du monde souvenirs to choose from. However something about it makes it feel out of place and made me want to go back to the one in French Quarter. read more

Beignets were good, service was quick and great, coffee was eh.. . well lets just say, it wasn't very good. Morning call was always my place to go when coming to nola, but tried this place close to the airport, proly will be back just for the beignets though. read more

My wife and I are very demanding restaurant-goers. It is really difficult to find a place that we like and trust. Once we do, we visit over and over, again, to ensure consistency before granting our "top rating". Without further ado, our top rating for beignets goes to Cafe Du Monde in Kenner, LA. Our first visit was made necessary because we were late getting out of the city and had no time to drive back into New Orleans for dessert. Frankly, our expectations were not very high. Thus, we were relieved the find 1) good service and 2) beignets that were served hot and delicious. After pairing that delicacy with just the right blend of Cafe Du Monde coffee, we were set. It was excellent. Now, many visits and pastries later, we can recommend this Cafe Du Monde location without reservation. These people are consistently good at what they do. If piping-hot beignets and a nice cup of coffee sounds like a good way to top-off a New Orleans-style meal, to you, head on over to the Cafe Du Monde, in Kenner. You won't be disappointed! read more

Great donuts always staff is fast and quick a New Orleans tradition you won't be disappointed.No matter what time you go things are great and they sell good coffee in cans to take home and brew. read more

First time in New Orleans and I loved it! They even sell the mix for beignets. It's a must with each trip to the NO

I was there so early in the morning what a wonderful time staff super friendly recommended to all whom visit NOLA

Always fast and friendly. Great place. Drive thru is super convenient. Beignets are always served hot and are delicious.

Love their beignets!! Their service is fast. The coffee leaves something to be desired but the hot chocolate isn't bad. They are reasonably priced. The location is clean and inviting. I would definitely come back!!! read more

I see so many of these restaurants all over town and I see what the hype is about. The classic beignets are especially delightful. My typical order is beignets and hot chocolate. Give it a try! read more

I am not from around here, so I had no idea what Beignets were. But after one bite I was in love. I am not a coffee drinker so I haven't had their coffee but everyone else gets it here so I assuming it's good. read more

The beignets weren't that hot and didn't seem too fresh like the ones at the French Quarter always are. But there was no line here!

I went to 3 different Cafe Du Monde's while in New Orleans recently and each experience was awesome and different. This location is quiet and large. The staff were excellent and friendly. The restaurant area was clean and well designed for large numbers of people, although when we went in the evening there were only 3 tables of people. You get the same items as the original Cafe Du Monde in the French Quarter, but it's quieter and very cool and comfortable, especially helpful on those hot, humid days in July :) read more

This place never disappoints. Their beignets and coffee are always consistent, so you always get what you know and love. It's just a taste of home. Can't go wrong with beignets and a cafe au lait. Frozen when it's hot out and a hot one when it's cool out. The workers are always welcoming and kind. And it's always clean. read more

Was asked if I would wait 4 minutes for fresh & hot beignets. Thanks for asking and hell yeah. The cafe au lait I had ordered was perfect. Would have given the place a fifth star had there been more sugar on the beignets. Hardly any sugar at all. My fault for not noticing till I got home. read more

Beignets are just a part of my return to N.O. So my friend and I were doing a little shopping and I spotted that place. Picked a small order of them to-go. We got to my friends place and they were already barely warm :( But they were fried doughy yumminess. Although there wasn't much powdered sugar. And the guy kept my change. Like didn't even try to hand it over but we were just ready to go. read more

What's not to like here? I mean, beignets are always a good thing and this location is pretty easy to get in and out of without a hassle. They are open till midnight too, so it's easy to pick some up after you've been out all night. read more

Poorly run, dirty tables, floors and mirrors. Could use more floor staff to keep up the demand for keeping the place clean.
