I've never had Mr. A Beignets but I have had beignets before. These were delicious. I ordered them from their food truck at a neighborhood event. I was a bit bummed that they only offered their Trio (3 large beignets) or the dozen (13 large beignets). Their normal menu also offers a dozen mini beignets and "add on" beignets. I was excited to try the minis but settled for the regular size. They offered 3 types of dipping sauces - Hershey's chocolate, Hershey's caramel and Nutella for $1 each. They were already heavily dusted with powdered sugar so I didn't bother with the sauces. Now, the beignets...piping hot and pillowy! So delicious. Mine were a tad overcooked so they were thinner than normal but still a yummy treat. I could only eat 2 so I plan to save one for breakfast...I wonder if they'll be good reheated?! I would love to see them have the option for cinnamon sugar as a topping in addition to powdered sugar. I wouldn't say these were any better than other beignets I've had but they're wonderful. The girl who took my order was very friendly too! Go get you some!

So when I first saw this place, I was imagining simple fried donuts, but when I got there I got these amazing powdered square beignets ($5 for 4). I have to say I was very impressed by how simple yet delicious it was. The beignet was fresh out of the fryer and the dough was perfectly fried. The powdered sugar paired well with the fried dough as well. I am personally a chocolate fan so did wish there was something to drizzle on top, but the beignets were honestly amazing the way they were. Would recommend eating them fresh as they did not taste as great when I got home. I also got their coffee. Nothing too special, but did have an earthy tone to it. I like where this food truck is located in downtown Apex. There are other food trucks next to it making it feel pretty lively. Ample parking as well. Staff is great and very friendly as well. Overall, love this place and I also think it is very unique. Would recommend checking it out if in downtown Apex.

Lovely pillowy beignets! They were delicious, but gave one less star because only 3 of them were $7. That seems a bit pricey. They are tasty however. So if you were searching for a beignet, you will not be disappointed with these. Of note, this is a food truck. So, it is best to check their website for their location.

We got these beignets at Peakfest in downtown Apex after seeing the truck around town. They are light on the inside and drenched in powdered sugar. Be prepared to get messy if you order these. They are good and would probably be better with coffee but I don't know if they are the best beignets I've ever had.

Rebecca P.

Finally got to try these wonderful goodies! We had both the mini and regular squares. In my opinion after taking them home, we dipped them in maple syrup! My my my! Sooo good!

So, so delicious--the perfect breakfast on an overcast day on North Topsail. So glad we stopped at this amazing truck!

Discovered today that this truck is located dangerously close to my house ! These beignets are the REAL THING. We recently went to Cafe Du Monde in New Orleans and I can seriously say without a doubt that these are equivalent to the beignets that we ate (on more than one day) there. The line does form but they are pretty quick about getting them out. Only downside is that there are no tables to sit and eat at. You do not want to eat these in your car unless you are about to clean it out. That yummy powder sugar can do some damage to your interior:

I'm from Louisiana, right on the other side of Lake Pontchartrain from NOLA, so you could understand how important it was to find good beignets. I was feeling homesick so I looked around and found this truck! The staff were friendly and from my home! I highly suggest Mr. A's to any who'd like to experience some of the best from Nawlins.

Never been to New Orleans but I can only imagine these are as good or better than what i would find in Louisiana. They're like little pillows made for eating with the perfect amount of powdered sugar dusting to accompany the multiple spread choices for dipping : ).

I just happened to be in Apex in the morning, so I stopped here for some beignets. I have never been to New Orleans and am not a beignet expert. However, I thought these were delicious. They are on the order of zeppole, and to an Italian, a powdery pillow of fried dough is heaven. This is a fun stop. There's plenty of parking, and when I went, there was a brisk business but not a long wait. The chicory coffee was excellent too. read more

I've been driving by this yellow truck for a few weeks now and I finally decided to stop yesterday and I am so glad I did. The two gentlemen were so polite and helpful and offered me up a sample which sealed the deal. I ended up purchasing the bites and they were perfect for sharing. 12 little square shaped pillows that really do melt in your mouth. My family all loved them!

I've never had a beignet before but was happy to get to try some recently when Mr. A's food truck booked a stop in our apartment complex. I had the trio of beignets, which was enough for 1 person, and a cafe au lait, which I've also never had. Half chicory coffee, half steamed milk. I'm not sure what chicory is supposed to taste like but it taste like regular coffee to me. I still enjoyed it all while sitting on my little poolside patio, imagining I was in New Orleans. read more

Such a fun spot in downtown Apex. They have a great variety of ice cream flavors. I personally…read moreloved butter pecan, sweet honey sea salt, and the groovy gooey brownie was a total treat. The service is great and they happily let you try flavors before choosing, which makes the experience even better. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating, takeout pints, and even dog ice cream. It is not free, but totally worth it because why should only humans enjoy ice cream :) Perfect place to cool off and hang out. Definitely worth a visit!

This is the best ice cream spot in Holly Springs. The ice cream flavors are exciting and not overly…read moresweet. They're rotating flavors are always exciting. We look forward to trying all of them. The staff are friendly! Worth the stop.

I've had this drink here before but not with the debris. Looked like cleaning brush bristles. I returned and showed to owner/manager who said it was from fresh mangoes. ...maybe it was shredded mango pit?? My hubby and I had already drank about 1/2 of it, noticing the hairlike debris. We both ended up with bubble gut in the bathroom. We are familiar with fresh mangoes. Still unsure what the hairlike debris was. May stick to the rolled ice cream. No more mango drink + for us.

There is a stable right by the property and if you're interested and lucky you may be able to pet a horse! There are also some goats/sheep and a duck pond. We each for the sampling flight which was nice to have an opportunity to try all their wines. I really enjoyed two of them, one was just okay, and the other two (the sweeter ones) tasted a little bit off to me, so I couldn't really drink them. I went back in and got a glass of my favorite one so we could walk the property and enjoy the animals. We also got some crackers, cheese, and meet as they do offer some charcuterie type options, which was a really nice touch and made for a laid back, fun afternoon! I'd definitely return, and would be interested in trying their seasonal wine beverages too!
