Super cute food stall on the main drag in Frankenmuth whipping up delicious, pillowy, warm, HEART SHAPED (I told you it was cute!) beignets with a ridiculous amount of powdered sugar. On a cold December night when we were walking around town it was bliss. We got a dozen to split/take home and when we got our order the bag was piping hot so I was forced to wait a minute which was VERY difficult. Ha. But they were worth the wait. We scarfed down a few right away and saved the rest for later. They actually warmed up really well the next day and were perfect with coffee on the couch on my first Sunday morning of holiday vacation. We also got chocolate, caramel, and cinnamon dipping sauces but honestly I liked them best plain. The cinnamon was my favorite of the three, though. The line was relatively long the Saturday night before Christmas but they had it down and it moved quickly. Both for ordering and getting our food. They also serve up hot cocoa, coffee, gator bites (yes, actual gator), and gumbo if your'e feeling peckish and/or adventurous. But we stuck with dessert and couldn't have been happier. read more

Norlins Beignets is a must-stop for us every time we visit Frankenmuth. As a family, we're big fans of these beignets, and no trip is complete without loading up on some extra calories here. This time we had friends with us, so we grabbed a dozen, which came in a great deal. We also got multiple dipping sauces - Chocolate, Caramel and strawberry. The beignets were soft, fluffy, and perfectly made. They even added extra powdered sugar in the package, which honestly was almost too much to handle... but sometimes you just have to get a little messy and enjoy it. A sweet tradition for us in Frankenmuth and always worth the stop read more

I was excited to let my kids try gator and beignets without having to take them to New Orleans. I order two of the combos. One had beignets and gator bites and the other had beignets, jambalaya and gumbo. We thought the jambalaya and gumbo were delicious and authentic. The gator was good but very expensive for the small portion. And the beignets don't come close to the original. The staff was really great! read more

These are the most delicious beignets. You can get half a dozen for $11. There are a variety of sauces that you purchase separately. They are $2 a piece or 3 for $5. They had cinnamon, chocolate, and raspberry. I believe there was a 4th sauce but I cant remember maybe caramel. The customer service was great, she greeted us and explained the prices. It's a very small and cute shop that sells other things such as drinks too Once you order, they make them fresh. They are super hot and loaded with powdered sugar. I got chocolate sauce with mine and it was so delicious. On the way to the car, I was craving more because they were that good. My kids loved them too. read more

One of the best beignets I've had outside of New Orleans. They gator po but was merely decent in comparison & quite scare in regards to the actual gator & plays a supporting cast role in lieu of the starring beignets. Shop has plenty of souvenirs & grocery items such as beignets mixes & various seasonings. read more

Lovely little coffee stop with beignets, gumbo and several different designs on café. I'll start with what is a beignet? I don't know. Never had one before. They're a light, fluffy pastry shaped like a square, but they also have a crispy exterior (BTW, here they are heart shaped). They cover them with a generous layer of powdered sugar. A definite contributor to this treat's distinct flavour. This must be a pastry featured in New Orleans since the whole place is based on there. I can't compare it to the original but I can say they are marvelous and I could eat more than a few (if left alone). The coffee was a very friendly brew. The biggest disappointment was just like every other venue at River Place. No where to sit. We were fortunate to have decent weather and sat on a rock wall outside. Not too comfy, but it beat standing. 03/24 read more

Oh my gosh! Where do I start. The beignets was AMAZING! There's a few sauces that you can choose from. It was warm served, cold brew coffee was excellent. Service was fast. It's a small little place but I really enjoyed it! The had food options but we weren't hungry for the meals but they are probably super good! read more

The service was excellent and the drinks that we ordered were delicious. Though I'm not a fan of caramel, the drizzle that went over my vanilla iced coffee wasn't overwhelming. My daughter enjoyed her mango lemonade bubble tea while my son liked his blue raspberry slushie. I wish they were an actual sit down restaurant but sitting out front on benches as we people watch works too. read more

We were looking for a little snack at the River Place shopping area in Frankenmuth. We have been to New Orleans in the past and have had their beignets. These are OK but much different. The taste is about the same, but these ones are hollow and a lighter texture. The tea was pretty standard as it was just green iced tea. My husband got the black coffee which he enjoyed. The staff was pretty friendly and helpful. Not sure we would return here again, but they are worth a try if you like beignets. read more

Wonderful service everyone was so pleasant. I love the food. The beignets were top notch.

It was fun to go get the beignets! Haven't had them in a long time. They didn't disappoint us. It was hard not go back for more! The cost was a little high but it has to be expected in a tourist area. Worth it for a treat read more

First time having one of these things, not bad. This place is a little pricey for what it is, but we're in a tourist trap. Guy was friendly and they came out hot/fresh pretty quick. Worth at least a try, just keep in mind it's $12 for 6 of them. read more

Cute little beignet and coffee shop on Main St! I came first thing when they opened and the lady who worked there was so sweet. I ordered 3 beignets and my kids went nuts. I should've ordered more. They are very light and airy. The heart shaped beignets were adorable. The chicory coffee is good if you like an earthy flavor to your coffee. I drink coffee black, so you could really taste the earthiness. I liked it a lot and it smelled good. Great way to start the day! read more

When was the last time you've had a beignet? Years? Never? This isn't a treat that I ever think about. But I came across a place that makes great beignets in Frankenmuth, Michigan, of all places, and now beignets are all I can think about. The beignets at N'orlins are served warm and almost made to order: When you place an order, someone goes and dusts powdered sugar on your order of beignets. They're placed in a bag and served to you warm and ready to be devoured. I ordered four, and that was a perfect amount for me. I'm not even sure they sell single beignets, though they must, right? But why would you buy one beignet when you could buy more than one? You're going to want more than one. They're finger-size and heart-shaped and oh so easy to eat because they're delicious. They also sell gumbo here, and they'll give you a sample if you ask. (It's really good.) You can also get chicory coffee to compliment your New Orleans beignets. (The coffee is really good, too.) read more

N'Orlins is our favorite place to eat in Frankenmuth, hands down! Their gumbo is perfect for a chilly day, and the beignets--while messy--are to die for. The only downside is that there is no indoor seating, but there are plenty of benches nearby to sit down and enjoy. Highly recommend if you're ever in Frankenmuth during the winter months. read more

The worst beignets I've ever had. They were dry and chewy. Do not recommend. They were made to order and hot.. but someone overworked the dough and I don't think it was seasoned. I am so glad I ordered 3 instead of the 6 they were pushing. read more

Saw the sign for Gumbo and headed towards this place. After a nominal wait time, I was told that they didn't make Gumbo that day. Deeply disappointed, I had to drown my sorrow with half a dozen beignets. These beignets are heart-shaped and, while tastey, were nowhere as good as Cafe du Monde in New Orleans. Will go back to try the Gumbo. read more

I'm a fan of Cafe du Monde's beignets, in New Orleans, so I was curious to see how these would compare. I got them plain without a dipping sauce, and the smallest order you can get is three for $4.99 (dipping sauces are 99c each extra). They are heart-shaped which was cute. They make them fresh to order, so they were nice and hot. Almost too much powdered sugar. They were a little chewier and denser than the NOLA variety but still tasty. Next time I'll get the raspberry dipping sauce too. They also have a lot of cold and hot drink options, one of my friends got an iced chai tea and said it was good. read more

Fresh, hot beignets! There's nothing better! I was so surprised and excited to see this small booth on the sidewalk. It was still morning and I hadn't finished my coffee, soooo obviously I had to have some beignets. Right? read more

Overpriced but tasted amazing! Freshly made deep fried in oil. Thickly covered with powered sugar. Highly recommend the hot cocoa to pair with the beignet. Line is long but fast moving. No six feet distance is observed because of the small space. We are most likely to come back for a quick sweet snack while in Frankenmuth! read more

Just ok... we have had better beignets and better coffee. The girl who took our order was very friendly and the coffee and food came out within a few minutes. The beignets were a little more crunchy and less fluffy than the others we have had. The cashier tried to upsell us to the 6 count and I am glad we didn't do that. We wouldn't have been able to eat that many considering they were pretty rich. read more

Driving around one Saturday and wanted a cup of coffee. I hop on Yelp and see who is recommending what. I see "N'Orlins" has good reviews. Really? I'm suspicious. But, okay - sure, let's give it a try. We've walked past this place every time we're in Frankenmuth. We get (1) regular coffee, (1) cafe au lait, and (3) beignets. That's about $15. Now, I know we're in a tourist area, so prices are going to be over the top. The coffee - terrible. The cafe au lait - terrible. Did you use skim milk in this? Just hot brown water. For those people who think their coffee is good - you've never had a good cup of coffee in your life, and for that, I'm sad for you. The beignets - doughy, chewy, and lacking flavor. Of course, I know they're just a box mix (they sell the mix in the store), but still... So, it was bad. We threw out our coffees, they were so bad. If they can't have a decent cup of coffee, I can only imagine how bad the food is. read more

Tried hot chocolate here - it was great! Very tasty. Pricing very reasonable. They also sell beignets and I believe gumbo and gator bites. Definitely recommend their hot chocolate during a cold Michigan day. read more

Let me say this since I'm from Nola. Many have tried and alot have failed. However they have came very close. They do there own style of beignet and it's good. The only suggestion is they need to add a lot more powdered sugar. Now for the people purchasing. Eat the. As soon as you get them don't wait to go to the car or when you get home. They are made to eat right now.. you have been warned. Also it's okra gumbo not file gumbo. read more

Beignets we're okay. They had too much powdered sugar on them. I thought they would ask me if I wanted powdered sugar and a little or a lot but they didn't. They just dumped a ton of powdered sugar on them. When I said something about it, I was told that's the way they should be lots and lots of powdered sugar. I think they should be. However, the customer wants them. read more

Very cute little picture perfect beignets and other tasty treats! We always make this a stop when walking around Frankenmuth. (They do try up selling us everytime, but- we only really get need like 2 cups of the dips for beignets. It's ok to say no, it's pricey anyway) And we always ask for our beignets to be lightly powdered otherwise it's too much for us. & you'll need something to drink afterwards so don't forget that either. read more

So Frankenmuth is pretty cool... and there's a ton of shops and restaurants. But I want to talk about N'orlins at 646 S. Main st. If you've been to New Orleans, and sampled beignets, you've probably already been sold on them. So we're passing the shop, and I beelined to this small window nestled between a few shops. MamaBear welcomed us and recommended a half dozen for the two of us. They make the begnuits fresh, and they are covered... I mean, you are going to get sugar covered eating these. The flavor and texture are incredible. They're every bit as good as what you'll see in New Orleans. What you won't get in New Orleans is MamaBears beautiful smile and sunny disposition. And she make is so worth sampling the begnuits. read more

The beignets were wonderful. They were fresh service was quick. I would absolutely go back.

Not bad for a "fast-food" stand in a tourist area. We have been curious about this place for quite a while and my child loves gumbo and has been craving some good gumbo since getting some great gumbo at Disneyland. We tried the gumbo, jambalaya, and some beignet. Again, not bad. The food was piping hot. The beignet were nice and sugary. The jambalaya was tasty as was the gumbo. The gumbo seemed to lack rice and the rice in the jambalaya could have been moister but I would come back for more and maybe try their coffee. The stews also seemed to lack shrimp or at least we did not get any shrimp in ours. The storefront is cute and the people working here were friendly. The person behind the register was gracious enough to let me know about a money saving special, get two bowls and half dozen beignet for the same price as the two bowls. I wish everyone wait and counter staff was this helpful! Honestly, I really appreciate it. I feel like so many times I have paid full price for buying things individually and did not figure it out until afterward when the staff could have helped out like this. For that, they deserve the four stars and a repeat customer. read more

Looks like a tourist trap. Beignets ?? Don't look or taste like ones. Probably one of the worst I tried. You could tell sales people are trained to keep offering to buy more than you plan/want. You sure only 3 beignets? They are really small. Want some cinnamon butter? You get the gist. read more

I would have to give this place 3 stars. When I ordered the gumbo I was expecting a thicker dish with more vegetables. Instead they literally gave you soup that was too hot for human consumption. The broth was good, with some heat. The sausage that they put in it was good, but the chicken was mushy and tasteless. The donuts were very good. Kind of similar to fried dough that you get at carnivals. Just be prepared that they are very messy. One dish and boom: white powdered sugar everywhere! read more
