The Beignets were just ok, nothing special, but not bad either, just ok. They are messy as heck too.

This would be considered a powder sugar overload, and it gets everywhere, your hands, mouth, clothes, ground, everywhere. The size is ample and the flavor is fresh, but I usually prefer them stuffed with Nutella, dark chocolate, or caramel which was not the option at the moment. Overall, very good! read more

Delicious beignets! I got 2 of the nutella stuffed beignets (which weren't so much stuffed as topped with) and a full bag of the beignet holes. Both were absolutely delectable. The holes are much easier to eat and especially good if you're sharing with a group. read more

I've only been here once, as mentioned in my previous review I was just passing through the area and stopped in to try them. If you've read my initial review you'll know that I didn't get my whole order, and I wasn't able to go back to get a refund or get the missing piece. However, I also failed to call or contact the business to try and rectify this. That was my error and I can own up to it. Yet! The merchant was proactive and kind enough to find my order and refund me the difference of what I never received; all without me calling in or contacting them. I will say this level of customer service is one in a million (and I can say this because I've worked in the credit card industry and some places give you the "too bad, so sad" excuse of why they can't help) and if you're in the area, stop in and try them! I don't think you'll be disappointed, and man do I wish they sold that baileys ice cream all the way here in Florida! I'd buy it in bulk! Stop by this tiny tiny shop and enjoy their wonderful beignets and ice cream! I think they do coffee too, but I didn't pay attention to that as much... read more

Its great if you are already in the area. They make it fresh, and with a small sunday line, it still took 10 mins to come out. 3 classic beignets and a hersheys chocolate dipping sauce for $4.87 is a great steal. They are airy and light. The powdered sugar is plentiful if its your thing! The very bery beignets 2 for $8 sounded so good but I was already full to get two orders :( Its a one time treat type of place! read more

I've come to Le Bon Temps a few times and I've always had a positive experience. I usually get the beignet ice cream sandwich (I think that's what it's called - if it's not, sorry), and I always get the Pecan Praline ice cream inside the beignets. They were out of it the last time I went, so I got the French Vanilla ice cream instead and that's what's you see in the picture. Even though it was yummy, I still prefer the other flavor more. The beignet itself was so tasty, loved the crispness on the outside and how warm and fluffy it was. As long as you wear a mask, you can go inside to order and watch how the beignets are made. The one downside to this place is that it's super small and there's only a few tables outside where you can sit and eat. read more

Unfortunately I was less than impressed. Whenever I visit a new city I look for their best donut shop in the area. On yelp the #1 was the salty donut which I have at home so I went with the #2 which was here. Not to mention I love beignets! I mean I didn't expect NOLA status beignets but I expected at least close, especially with the great reviews. When I got there it smelled like something was burning and the woman working there was dressed like she was cooking in her house, like in pajamas, but she was nice. Not sure what was going on. It also is a hole in the wall which is totally fine, if anything I expected them to be even better because of that. Well I got an order of 3, that's the smallest you can get and I took them back to my hotel room. They tasted completely fake to me. The powdered sugar tasted awful. I took several bites hoping it would get better with each bite but it just got worse. Finally I gave up on the first beignet I was eating and threw rest away. I was disappointed. Hopefully no one else has same experience. read more

Eat it piping hot! We got the Nutella and it was ... okay? It's actually quite dry, and the outside was crunchy, not crispy. The inside wasn't as airy as I'd been accustomed to compared to New Orleans, and it's actually somewhat flavorless - the only sweetness and taste came from the powders sugar topping. I've had much better, honestly. I felt pretty bad for the lone employee who was making the beignets all by herself while also manning the cash register and taking orders from an overflow of customers. It was tempting to order one to try but I don't think I'd come back again. read more

Great little joint to get a pre-dinner snack. We got a half bag of the minis. They definitely don't skimp on the powdery stuff. Service was good, and staff is friendly. Will be back. read more

Absolutely legit beignets! $4 for three big classic beignets. I'm from Louisiana, and the benchmark for beignets is Cafe Du Monde. These were not same but still great respectively. If you just had a overly, salty season meal and Niwa...run across Main St and get some beignets! read more

Who doesn't like beignets?! Perhaps, people who are unfamiliar with beignets but it would have to be only due to the unfamiliarity. I've come here on a many a night and whenever I'm in the neighborhood I find myself meandering over to this spot to get one after a dinner or lunch or just neighborhood walkthrough. There's never a bad reason to stop in. read more

Not only do they not serve beignets but I wouldn't consider what I purchased as a donut at all. Extremely yeasty tasting warm bread with unsweet powdered sugar on top YUCK! Also the hibiscus is the worst drink you'll ever drink. So odd tasting and unsweet. I'm glad I didn't leave a tip because the shop worker definitely LIED saying these beignets were better than New Orleans. Honestly I can google a recipe & it'll come out tasting better than what I consumed! HORRIBLE in the world of pastry it's a -2/100,0000. How is this stall even in business? read more

UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT (as told by an employee). The menu is a bit different than what you may have experienced before, and honestly the beignets taste different too. I will not be visiting again. I bought the No. 3 Beignet for $6. Under new management, they no longer offer any of their sauces on the side (honey, chocolate sauce, caramel...). I know real beignets are not supposed to be served with sauce on the side but it was a nice addition the previous owner offered. Well my Beignets were dry, thick, and not good. It tasted like a piece of stale bread- and yes they were served piping hot so that was how it was meant to taste. I felt it was overcooked and a bit too doughy lending to that unpleasant thick taste with every bite. It's just not worth the price. Also my beignets had big holes in them and didn't look appealing. I always thought of beignets as bread like cloud pillows in powdery sugar, but these are bricks. They now serve a red-velvet cream cheese Beignet called the bon-bon Rouge. It was horrible. They are 2 for $8 and tasted so gross. The cream cheese is way more sour than sweet. I had high hopes for this, but the beignet again was thick, almost like a bagel consistency and just tasted bad, not like red velvet or anything close to it. They were sold out of pies when I was there so maybe those are good? Staff was very attentive and I really appreciated their service but man, this place is just not cutting it anymore in the taste category. Also, the containers they come in at the bottom have holes, so...enjoy getting powdered sugar on everything you own. read more

Love this spot for a craving of beignets right in Deep Ellum! Though not as airy as the ones in NOLA (du Monde, Cafe Beignet), the Classique is a steal with three beignets for $4 and is best eaten while still warm. Their iced coffees are on the sweeter side but a cup of the brewed chicory complements the beignets well. Check their IG @lebontempsbeignets for some seasonal beignets! read more

I love this place for the beignets and coffee. It's a small shop on Main Street but you are usually in and out. On a night day you can sit outside at the cute tables they have available. The hours on the website need to be updated but I follow them on Instagram and got their correct hours from there. I believe they are closed Monday/Tuesday and open at 10 the rest of the week. read more

Out of towner always on the hunt for something sweet. After some searches and scrolling on Instagram, success. Sweet, powdery, dough pillows is what I call them. I devoured these in a heartbeat and then had the nerve to ask my sister for one of hers. The way it's set up is you walk inside and place your order (no indoor seating) and then you wait outside by the window for your order. If you're lucky, you may grab the window stool seating or one of the few tables in front. Warning: Powder fest all over your mouth and clothes, but worth every bite. read more

Who doesn't love NOLA? and who doesn't want their famous beignets coming to Dallas? It's not part of most people's diet but Sunday calories and carbs doesn't count. :p I was in the area for another event and decided to indulge in one of this talked about addition to DE. I've only had it once when i was in NOLA and it was a euphoric experience. I died, went to heaven and come back to dust off the powdered sugar all over me. Le Bon Temps is as close as we can get to getting a freshly cooked beignets. Soft, delicate and just a hint of sweetness from the powdered sugar. IT WAS PERFECT! There was a small line when I stopped by. Placing your order is not much of a wait. The wait really is from your order to cook. They are just slinging dough after dough in the back to the fryer. My order came out hot, how it should be. Get the "classique" it's all you need but if you want to over indulge you can add ice cream, creams, syrup and more calories to it. I can imagine how busy this place gets during peak times. read more

Overall, I'd say this place is just okay. The lady working the register was really really friendly, super helpful, and so nice to throw in an extra beignet because my family and I were sharing. But when it comes to the beignets themselves, they're eh, in my opinion. They were more dense than anything. They weren't light and fluffy as I know beignets to be. The flavor for the Mardis Gras special was great, but the dough just gave me a slight jaw workout. read more

I love New Orleans. Cafe du Monde is always the spot to start or end a day. Dallas has one that may grow to be better!! A cold gray Dallas morning and this is the better way to warm it up! Hot sugary beignets and chicory coffee! The coffee is quite delicious! Chicory is quite healthy and pairs quite well with beignets. I'm a believer in the health benefits of chicory. Worth looking up if you are unfamiliar. As for the beignets, they are healthy, too! They give me the extra push to work out to work off the extra carbs and cals! Okay, so they enable my extra girth, too. This quaint shop of delights (or health food in my eyes) is going to out grow its home as all of you stop in. They have a counter and a few tables, plus pack carry out quite well, but they will need more room. Where they are located gives great views of Deep Ellum, the Dallas Skyline and fascinating people. Plenty of parking lots and curb side parking. A few steps may help make room for more beignets. These beignets are significantly better than all of the many other places I've tried, seriously. Better suede texture, holds more powered sugar, right mix of crispy outer light brown shell with chewiness underneath to protect the light and fluffy middle! The flavor is not just of fried dough. I'm still hard press to describe. It's really good! Dipped in chicory coffee, it is decadent! Pulls out the coffee's flavors! Price is exceptionally reasonable! Lots of options on the menu. Even the kids will love this place read more

When this little shop made its way as a "Hot New Business" in my yelp feed I was ecstatic; bright eyed, bushy tailed. I paid Le Bon Temps a visit several days later. The menu consists of only a few items, nothing too overwhelming but the minute I realized that I had the opportunity to create my OWN BEIGNET SANDWICH, there was no going back! I ordered the signature ice cream sandwich ($9 and some change), half bananas foster, half praline pecan with a caramel drizzle and OH boy (the praline pecan was the winner here)! An "adult" option [with alcohol] was also considered but "c'mon Mikhael, its 9 am". I was appreciative to see that my fried treat was just leaving its hot oil bath after ordering. Ya' can't get any fresher than that folks! Come closer; let me tell ya'll something. If you have never in your life indulged in a combo such as this, do yourself a solid and go for it! The moment, that soft and creamy ice cream hits the warm and fluffy beignets drenched in the sweet and ooey gooey caramel enters your mouth, you have officially arrived on Cloud 9! The owner and his two other employees donned smiles and welcoming attitudes which often positively enhances such an experience. Now, the answer you've all been waiting for. Are the beignets as tasty as the ones in New Orleans? I really can't answer that for you. Texas has the best BBQ and New Orleans has the best beignets, but Le Bon Temps sure does come close and it beats making the 8 hour drive..... read more

Really cute place, but the "beignets" are disgusting! That's really an insult to call them that because its just the densest bread you've ever eaten with powdered sugar. If you've ever had a real beignet you'll be very disappointed.I did this as a surprise for my mom since we didn't get to go visit family in New Orleans and celebrate Mardi Gras this year and wanted to do something special to honor my grandma. We both took 2 bites and threw it away it wasnt even edible. I've never written a bad review in my life so you know if I'm here warning people it's because it was real bad! Didn't try the coffee or anything else though so not sure how that is. read more

Beignets & chicory coffee. A combo that always makes me happy. Le Bon Temps satisfied our craving. Their version of cafe au lait, although different from Cafe du Monde's, was piping hot and super strong, which are my top two requirements for a good cuppa. Their classic French Quarter style beignets were tasty, although strangely flat. Would have appreciated if coffee and beignets could be ready at the same time to be enjoyed together. A sugar canister for customers to sprinkle extra sugar on beignets would have been nice as well. And the seats located right in front of the order window were awkward, as one had to dodge every time the window opened for food/drink to be passed through to other waiting customers. Pleasant, friendly service. They even refilled my water bottle with a smile. read more

Le Bon Temps - Pic of beignets & coffee didn't turn out. But here's one of their nice blue wall paint & sign... - Bakeries Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Honestly very disappointed with what I got today. My biggest problem is that much of the menu wasn't available. We came pretty early on a Sunday morning and couldn't fry most of the menu. It's a travesty that they have something on their menu that is the love child of a donut and croissant but had none available for us to try. All they had were beignets, which weren't great. The dipping sauces weren't bad but the beignets were way too bready and not the light, airy concoctions they are supposed to be. Their coffee wasn't bad but it did take a while. Overall, I probably wouldn't return unless I happened to walk by on a whim. read more

First things first...don't make the same mistake that I did by wearing black :) The beignets were fairly decent. I ordered a bag of the classique which comes with 3 beignets. They were big and enough to share with a friend! They definitely aren't shy when it comes to the powdered sugar. It paired really well with the Shakerato. Seating (and parking) is extremely limited so be prepared to stand and eat on the sidewalk or take yours to go. I was really impressed with the customer service. The owner was extremely kind and welcoming. He thanked us for coming and despite having a line of customers, he still took the time to give us a detailed run through of the menu. This was definitely a nice after lunch treat and I will be returning! read more

I was extremely underwhelmed with the beignets. They were simply hot white bread with powdered sugar. The bread had no flavor and the powdered sugar didnt really add much to the experience. I am not sure if these pastries are made with butter but I couldnt taste it if so. It left so much to be desired. I honestly think I am just not a beignet person. I was looking for more flavor. They reminded me of the powered donuts you can get from the store except left cakey and more bread like .. similar to a dinner roll with 10x less flavor. Giving fours stars because I'm sure it's nothing wrong with the product it's just not my thing. My daughter (toddler) loved them Food was hot and fresh. And customer service was great. read more

Wow!!! Le Bon Temps is in quite a busy part of Dallas, so be warned that parking is a bit difficult to find. The shop itself is pretty small and there is only seating outside the storefront (no tables inside). The beignets are reasonably priced, and they actually have a Groupon available, so I would highly recommend checking that out. My girlfriend and I came here on a Saturday night and it was decently busy. We ordered a bag of the Classique, and the lemon icebox Saveur de signatures. The Classique came with 3 normal beignets, but they were drenched with way too much powdered sugar and were a bit flavorless. The star beignets for us were the lemon icebox ones because they stuff the beignet with lemon ice cream, which makes for a messy, but tasty treat. The ice cream filling tasted very fresh and complemented the warmness of the beignet. Overall, this place is more deserving of a 3.5-star rating, and we might come back for the Groupon, but the beignets are not that amazing. read more

OMG!!!!!!! Thank you for being open first and foremost. Its good to know that I do not have to get good beignets just in Houston but now also in Dallas. This store is small, its come in and eat outside. It can get pretty jammed inside the store since its just the ordering station and kitchen. Wished there was room inside the store to sit and eat. But they do have outdoor seating with heating when its cold (thankful). I ordered the classic beignets which is basically the dough and the sugar. Simple and classic :) . It is SOOOO GOOOD! Going to come back and try other things. Heard the drinks were goood too! See yall again! read more

I finally got to try Le Bon Temps and it did not disappoint. I hadn't had beignets since being in NOLA but crave them time to time so I'd wanted to try this spot for awhile now. My girlfriend got the classic beignets and she LOVED them. I don't even remember her loving them as much in NOLA haha! And I got the very berry beignets to try something different-- they were good. I definitely recommend heating them up just like 10 seconds and then they're perfectly warm and gooey inside. We ordered vanilla lattes which weren't my favorite in my opinion but I also don't usually get vanilla flavored coffee so it might have just been different than my usual. Either way we loved this place and cannot wait to be back for more beignets! Definitely a new favorite spot for sweet treats! read more

This is a little bakery that is standing only with outdoor seating. The service was fast, and you can tell the order was being made fresh in the back. I got the classique beignet which was honestly so tasty! It wasn't overwhelmingly sweet and their was a LOT of powdered sugar that you could lump on your beignet or shake off if you didn't want as much (I was the latter). The only reason why I give it 4 stars is that the thickness of the beignet is a bit more than I would have preferred, but overall, this was a delicious and and quick snack that I recommend others to try! read more
