    Family Donut shop in Denham Springs, La. The best donuts ever made!
    Chasity R.

    This place has the best donuts I have ever had and I have been to tons of places including all of the major donut chains. The bad reviews are confusing to me because I go a couple times a month and have never had a problem. The food is delicious and the owners know everyone in my family by name. The prices are reasonable and they do an exceptional job at cooking and customer service, what more could you ask for. They always give us extras too we recieved extra donuts, apple fritters, kolaches and donut holes. They remember all of my kids favorite donuts and if I dont get any they always give me one of each for free. This buisness is family owned and occasionally they are closed when they are suppose to be open or open a little later then expected but I just call beforehand. I live about 20 minutes away and pass other donut shops on my way to them but the drive and time is worth it. If you have never been you definitely need to give them a try.

    I am so glad new owners came in and reopened the shop. The donuts are as good as ever and the service is much faster.

    It's Simple as the name suggests…read more Nothing fancy or elaborate about this place. It's a small restaurant with a small open kitchen and a small dining room where you stand in line to place your order, get a number to put on your table, and servers bring the food to your table when it's ready. So, if you're looking for a large upscale, elegant restaurant with elaborate food presentations, this is not the place for you. But if you're looking for a simple, quick and delicious meal, Simple Joe Café is for you. The menu consists of a wide variety of breakfast favorites, but the menu is not intimidating and easy to read and order from. Simple enough. When my family and I arrived, the small dining room was packed with a few open tables and about six other customers in line waiting to place their order. On Saturday and Sunday, you cannot sit at the open tables or hold the tables until you have placed your order and given a tent number. At that point, the servers will help you find a table to accommodate your party. The employees do a very good job of clearing and turning over the tables to make sure everyone is seated and able to enjoy their meal in a timely manner. I am not a fan of breakfast food and normally don't eat breakfast, so I only had coffee while my family enjoyed their meal, so the food quality part of this review is based on what they described as they were eating. They each ordered Joe's Number One Breakfast Combos which came with two eggs, choice of meat and pancakes and they shared an order of hashbrown and a side of grits. The food came out quickly. They stated everything was fresh, prepared and cooked as requested, the food tasted very good and enjoyed every bite. Of course, the coffee was hot, and fresh and the service was fast and friendly. The relaxed ambience and decor add to the unique character of the restaurant. Date of Visit: Saturday 05-16-26 Simple Joe Café | 3057 Government St, Baton Rouge, LA

    This place is awesome…read more I ended up here the other day not because I planned ahead. Instead, I was trying to meet a friend for lunch and he was so late that we couldn't get in where were trying to go. I saw the sign and off we went to Simple Joe Cafe. Simple, it is. Awesome food, it also is. This place is not fancy nor is it meant to be. This is a solidly Americana type menu and ordering at the counter, serving your own coffee, and picking your own table kind of place. AKA - the kind of place I love. I have been here a few times now and only had breakfast. Hint: they serve it all day. The two meat omelet is a great choice and has been my go-to. The other day some friends got burgers and a club sandwich and those looked great too. This will definitely be in the rotation for lunch.

    Everything here was great! My hubby is a pie lover and…read morewherever we go he seems to find a pie place. This was a great find. The food was fantastic!!! We had the chicken pot pie and fish pie and blackberry hand pie for dessert and took home another slice of pie. The place was packed for lunch but I see why. The food was fantastic, the service was attentive and. Or dial and the ambiance was nice. Give it a try! It won't disappoint.

    Came into town to visit LSU and Elsie's was recommended as one of the best places to eat in Baton…read moreRouge. After 6 hours of traveling I was up for anything!! We arrived on a Sunday at 11:45am. So right in the middle of the brunch rush. We were quoted a35 minute wait but was seated sooner. We ordered lunch. I got the chicken pot pie my partner got the bbq bayou burger and we split an order of the crawfish pie with red beans and rice. Both plates were served with a salad. Service was great! Jack was our server. He made some excellent recommendations!! The chicken pot pie had a kick to if so fyi....Everything was delicious!! Turns out we got and order of the boudin pie instead of the crawfish pie but it was delicious! He did bring us out a crawfish pie to try (not pictured) and it was also excellent!! The red beans and rice were the best I've had. And I've done a red beans and rice tour in NOLA and this was the best I've had!! We rounded out our meal with the Eye of the Tiger pie. And holey moley!!! The best finish to our meal!! They also have a great craft beer selection on draft. The only downside to this place is the parking is not great and there are only two bathrooms that are unisex. But heck....I'll be back every time I visit BR!!
