This is the best lunch spot in town. It has beautiful decor, friendly staff and their food is amazing. I try something new each time.

We stopped by this restaurant for lunch on our way to the airport from Louisiana. I ordered the lunch special that day -- spaghetti and meatballs with a side Caesar salad -- and also tried their house drink. My husband and daughter had the tomato soup with grilled cheese, and they couldn't resist ordering the peanut butter cookies for dessert. Everything was delicious! We make it a point to come back here every time we're in Louisiana. It's truly a hidden gem with great food, warm service, and charming décor. Highly recommend! read more

Beautiful historic building with fresh salads, house-made bread, and excellent scratch-made desserts. Crab cake sandwich is great. Very limited hours and prices are high too but still a good place. read more

Katharine & Company - Quinoa with Apricots and Pine Nuts Fish Taco - New American Near Me - Beaumont, Texas

Stopped here for lunch. Great sandwiches, Great soups and Great atmosphere. Staff was friendly and fast.

** Edit, in response to the owners response ** **Katharine, the owner and sole proprietor of this establishment, was given many opportunities to offer a refund during the first conversation on the phone, but never did so. The only thing that was short was their response which was "no" multiple times when asked for said refund. It's sad that the only reason they're offering it in the first place, in response to this review, is so they can save face. And even sadder that they felt the need to make up lies. That just shows the lack of integrity. I'd also like to add that we had no problem coming back in and buying something else, without a refund. We truly were fans of the food. The main thing that deeply disturbed us was the terrible customer service from, what I'm assuming was the owner.** The woman I spoke to on the phone had terrible customer service and a nasty attitude! I've been pesceterian for 10 plus years and ordered a fish dish, that had no description of it having any sort of meat whatsoever. I took a bite and noticed there were chunks of meat in the sauce that the fish was topped with. The woman I spoke with on the phone had a heinous attitude and said I wouldn't be comped and to "give the food to someone else" in a smug tone, since I wasn't able to eat it. She also said that it's stated that there is Tasso sausage, but in the description of the menu it says Tasso sauce. How was I supposed to know that this is actually a red meat dish? Never coming back here again. What a despicable and unprofessional establishment. read more

First Thursday February 5, 2026. A joyous crowd and one of the best meals I've had in a long time! Chef Will outdid himself on the grouper!! Still thinking about it! read more

It was a busy Friday on our way to Houston from Lafayette. We stood in line for probably ten minutes. Food came out fast. My latte Didn't come out til I was halfway done with my salad. The salad was good but for the price, the serving was small. Just give me more lettuce and I'd be happy. The latte was good. The building was beautiful but parking was limited. It's counter service with no waitress so tips are optional! read more

I wish I would have taken pictures but I completely forgot before diving in. The food is all fabulous. It is a gem for Beaumont. The salads , sandwiches and dessert are all delicious. read more

food service ambiance are A+ only thing wrong with this place is that it's not in Marva

I have frequented Katharine & Company since the beginning of college, and I just graduated! It is a hidden gem, and, to me, it is the best restaurants in the SETX area. I typically get their special, which varies every day except for Wednesdays. Their fish and chicken specials are my favorite, but I typically pass on their spaghetti days. Their food portions are just perfect and do not overfill you. The food is also fresh. Their desserts are also great. My favorite is the fruit tart. read more

Thoroughly enjoyed my Guero. You get a very nice deli lunch that is palatable and appealing. You will pay gourmet prices for the uptown location in the Mildred Building. The caprese salad is delicious!! The Guero was great! Crunchy bread and fresh meat and veggies! Loved the peppers! Would have appreciated a sauce! $19 for soup, sandwich, and tea. Tea was on point! read more

Always love to have lunch here! The 1/2 sandwich with 2 sides is my fav. The BLT with mozzarella and basil on wheat toast with the green beans and artichokes and the quinoa with golden raisins is great. We also love the park sandwich...fantastic. As mentioned by others I also love the specials especially the fish specials. read more

Every morsel is amazing. Your going to be delighted. It so freaking beautiful and delicious

Always delicious !! Great lunch spot- I went home and tried to replicate the salad I ate! 10 stars!!

I really enjoyed this place. The building is cute. Food is good. Service is very friendly. I had the pecan Parmesan crusted sandwich & a bowl of soup. read more

What a lovely place!!! I've been here a couple of times now with my sister while visiting Beaumont and each visit has been marvelous! On my most recent visit, I opted for the chef's special of grilled chicken breast with garlic mashed potatoes and grilled asparagus ... all lovingly draped with chimichurri. Yasssss! SO GOOD! My sister got the Guero sandwich with a side of tomato basil soup and was "souper" happy as well. Needless to say, we both inhaled our lunches with ease and satisfaction. We also opted for a few baked goods because its not a real visit without them. K&C has some excellent choices. This time, we went for a chocolate chip cookie, a brownie and drumroll please ...... the peanut butter sandwich cookie. They were all good but just typing about that heavenly peanut butter cookie sandwich is making me salivate. Its THAT AMAZING! (We should have gotten two ... or three ... or all of them ... we totally should have gotten all of them.) If you are there on a day they have the grilled shrimp with andouille sauce resting over cheddar grits, I highly recommend this dish as well. Saying that, I'm sure all of their dishes are spectacular. They care about their food and its obvious! The staff is friendly and helpful as you line up to order. The food is also served pretty darn quick (once your buzzer goes off ... you will get one after ordering & paying) which is good news if you are hungry! There is also plenty of seating as well as brewed tea beverage options. (You'll see!) As for the location, its in a fabulous old building with just as much character as the food. There is limited parking directly in front of K&C's entrance, however, you will have better luck on the side of the building where there is a small lot. I've only been here for lunch as I believe these are pretty much the only time they are open with the exception of special "every once and while" dinner hours or special events. So, make sure you don't miss this place. Its become one of "go to's" when visiting Beaumont! read more

Always a treat at Katharine and company quality is always there. We live in the golden triangle and wish that they'd open one closer to us so we didn't have to go to Beaumont. read more

If you're missing dining in an elegant place with equally beautiful food, this is the spot. The prices are a bit on the high side, but the food is quality. There's no doubt about that. We really dug their meatloaf & awesome desserts. Lots of suits & families dine here - so look respectable if you're stopping in for a bite. The portions aren't as great as Amelia's for example, but you can't have it all, all the time, can you? read more

Stopped by this beautiful restaurant on a business trip and was so pleasantly surprised at the wonderful ambience and friendly service. The food was outstanding and exceptional and I couldn't have asked for a better surprise in a town that I didn't know anything about. This is a secret little gem that I think the locals no well but visitors are lucky to find read more

Great service and food. Always consistent and customer service is amazing. The owner is awesome and the location is perfect.

Thank you for making my day, making my year, and making my life!! You all have blessed my with more joys than any one person deserves! Not one but every member of this team of workers contributes to overall five star experience that is Katherine and Company. I once was asked where my favorite place in world was and I would be lying if I said it was anywhere but the high ceiling, checkered floors of Katherine and Co. I have had many ups and many downs in my life, and without a doubt Katherine and Company always succeeds in lifting me up! They provide the most exemplary food, and beyond that they push the limits of the culinary experience. I want to commend everyone at Kat and Co. because without them I would not be where I am today. I would not be the women I am today. Katherine and Company is hands down the greatest place for anyone who believes and wants to achieve joy. read more

Hands down some of the best tomato soup that I have ever had. Their pecan crusted salad with a honey mustard vinaigrette is a dish that I have enjoyed on numerous occasions. The chicken salad sandwich is another goodie. I will have to add pictures after Covid. read more

Super cool spot we found in passing. Food is really good. Try the watermelon soup, it's fantastic. They have a fun assortment of teas, which I like. Not a kid friendly menu, just a hint. Great place to bring your girlfriends. read more

Food was amazing, ambiance was very special. Loved the character of the older building. Service was fast and efficient.

On our road trip to our New Orleans vacation we decided to stop here for lunch. Their menus are located by the front door so, don't pass them up like we did. You order your food and beverages at the counter and they will call your name when it's ready to pick it up at the side bar. We beat the rush because after we ordered a line formed out the door. The bathroom is a single stall and looks sort of pieced together. The ladies room is downstairs and the men's is located upstairs. They have plenty of bistro tables which filled up quickly after we sat down. It is downtown Beaumont so, the parking can be a little difficult. At the recommendation of the gal behind the counter I opted for the pecan crusted chicken sandwich and decided on the side of green beans with artichokes. The pecan crusted chicken unfortunately was dry and definitely could use a lemon slice on the side and another texture to pull it all together into one great sandwich. It was just mush but, I think adding a couple bacon strips could cure that problem. The flavor was there just not the texture combinations. The green beans with artichokes surprised me in a great way. I never thought of combining those two in my dishes at home but, I will think about it now. Who knew those flavors went together so well? This place is a catering company offering lunch and I would come back again but, would select a different meal option. I think I expected a lot more from an expensive sandwich. read more

Katharine & Company - Pecan crusted chicken sandwich on foccacia bread served with artichoke heart green beans - New American Near Me - Beaumont, Texas

On our return trip from New Orleans to Austin, we were looking for a lunch spot at the midway point in Beaumont and wanted to steer clear of fast food/chains. Our timing was perfect because we rolled into town at 1:30pm, shortly before Katharine & Company closes at 2pm. The building has vintage charm, the counter service is friendly as can be, and the menu of soups, salads, and sandwiches has something for everyone. I enjoyed a pecan crusted chicken sandwich on wheat bread that was set off nicely by fresh tomato, lettuce, and curried mayonnaise. My husband scarfed down his turkey club, which was stupidly good (yes, I snagged a bite). Both of our soup sides - corn chowder and tomato-basil - were home-cooked comfort food at their best. read more

I love this place! The food is delicious and they offer healthy items as well as desserts. Love!

My wife and I stopped by Katharine & Company based on Yelp reviews and thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience. If this is your first time let them know and you will be guided through your meal. I had the Grilled Shrimp Po-Boy and my wife had a shrimp salad. Both were presented quickly and cooked perfectly. Not so much you are stuffed, just the right amount. Suffice it to say we will be back. read more

The best food in Beaumont. Their soups are to die for! Fresh and made daily. They make everything from scratch and have an immaculate kitchen. read more

Such good food! I love their first Thursday's every month because it's a chance to get dinner here. The only complaint is that the price can be a little steep for the Thursday night dinner and even some of their lunch items are expensive. The food quality is fantastic and I think one of the best places in Beaumont. read more

Everything they make is wonderfully delicious . Very talented chefs. When family comes to Beaumont that is my go to place for family dinners and desserts At the Calder branch. I go to the Mildred for lunch. I get the lunch special and chocolate mousse . All good! read more

Each time I've visited each of their locations they were great. Friendly faces, great food, and creative spaces. Each time i go i have to take a pastry home or pre-packaged meal. They have it all covered and every time I go in they have something creative and new to try. read more

Katharine & Company serves a delicious gluten-free lunch. As a celiac, I am always on the hunt for gluten-free options while traveling. I had the red snapper and a cup of Chicken Lime soup. My husband had a salad with shrimp. Both meals were delicious. A very short drive from I-10. read more

My husband and I were driving on I-10 West headed toward Austin. We usually stop in Houston for lunch but decided to try our luck in Beaumont. Saw this place on Yelp and were only 2 miles away. Decided to take a chance. Good choice! We came to have salads BUT We both had the Daily special which was pork chops with a lemon vinaigrette sauce, real mashed potatoes and asparagus. What a meal! Not only presented well but scrumptious! Had some very nice flavors going on there! Prepared so well. Loved the atmosphere. In an old old building, dark wood counter and furnishings. Homemade teas with taster cups to sample each tea before making your choice. Beautiful desserts on display made fresh each day. Very friendly staff. No doubt we will be making this our lunch stop from now on. read more

So enjoyed my food. Great setting and food was awesome. I have a steak and salad. Medium was cooked just right.

I get why it was featured in Texas Monthly this was just what I was looking for. The tomato basil soup was delicious, but did need a pinch of salt, the artichoke mushroom soup was heavenly. Reasonably portions and awesome daily specials, just an all around great lunch spot and what a cool atmosphere, just beautifully done interior. review from Texas monthly: When the proprietor moved into the stately Mildred Building and expanded her catering business to include a dine-in menu, lunch options greatly improved around here. On any given day you'll find ladies who lunch and Nomex-suited refinery workers alike tucking into the likes of pecan-Parmesan-crusted chicken salad with crunchy green beans and new potatoes and a pork tenderloin sandwich on fresh-baked focaccia. Daily specials range from crab cakes to meat loaf. Save room for a homemade chocolate cookie. Beer & wine. read more

This was a great choice for lunch today, got there right before the place filled up with old Beaumont business people. I got the bacon and turkey on wheat bread, which is just another way to say a club sandwich. It was delicious with fresh tomatoes, spinach, avocado and a side caeser salad. Usually it comes slathered in curry mayo as well, but being a hater of white sauces, I K.O.'d that real quick. The meal wasn't overly expensive, about $9. This was only my second time to eat here and it's been good both times. It's close to where I work and now that there isn't any more construction on Calder Ave., I'll be eating here more often. There is also a dinner on the first Thursday of every month with a special menu. read more

Katharine and Company is one of the most original restaurants in Beaumont, Texas. The atmosphere is incredible, as it is nestled in the beautiful, historic Mildred Building on Calder in Old Town. They are only open for lunch and on the first Thursday of each month in the evening. The daily special is always delicious, but you can't go wrong with one of their sandwiches, full of fresh ingredients. My favorites are the pork tenderloin sandwich, BLT on focaccia, tomato basil soup, crab cakes. read more
