Recently, in September, the new Beignets and Brew pastry and coffee shop opened in Market Square. The New Orleans style shop is also planning to open another location on West Tennessee Street in January. Beignets are a delicious fried pastry treat that is fluffy on the inside and crisp on the outside. Often, beignets are paired with a coffee and fortunately, the new shop also offers a variety of coffee options.
This new delicious beignet place offers a variety of sizes and flavors that will cater to all customers. They also offer beignets by the dozens or bite-sized beignets by two-dozen. The traditional powdered sugar beignets can be bought in a four-pack or 12-pack. The shop also offers a 24-pack of original sized powdered sugar beignets meant for large groups or even 72 bite sized powdered sugar beignets. Beignets come in specialty flavors such as the Cinnamon Sugar, Cinna Swirl, Cocoa-Nut Caramel and Nutella in three-packs or bite-sized packs.
The variety of flavors offered by the shop are suitable for all different tastes. The Cinnamon Sugar beignets are dipped in a tasty cinnamon sugar mixture and paired with either chocolate sauce or cinnamon roll icing. The delicious sweet bite paired with either sauce is delectable. The Cinna-Swirl beignet is similar, but the cinnamon roll icing is drizzled on top along with cinnamon. The Cocoa-Nut Caramel treats are covered in caramel with toasted coconut flakes and a chocolate drizzle. Lastly, the Nutella beignets are a delicious chocolatey nutella drizzled bite. Homemade sauces are available as an inclusion to add extra flavor to the classic powdered sugar beignets. The options include a butter cream, chocolate, caramel and blueberry flavors.
Not only are the beignets an enjoyable bite, the coffee paired with it is equally as tasty. The shop offers a variety of flavors offered both hot and iced. There are also teas, smoothies and power fizzies offered alongside the coffee all with the option of medium or large. The specialty coffee flavors include Biscoff Cookie Butter Latte, Honey Cinna-Lavender, Nutella Latte and Salted Caramel Mocha. These delicious flavors cannot be missed for any coffee lovers. The different teas include Arnold Palmer, Chai, Matcha, Seasonal Tea and not to be forgotten a regular sweet/unsweet tea. Customers can order a choice between three smoothie flavors- Berry Banana, Pineapple Paradise and Sweet Greens. Lastly, the power fizzies are offered in Strawberry Coconut and Blue Razz Sour Apple.
Lastly, this new fun shop has a specialty menu feature with the current season's offerings. Currently, there are the S’more Beignets which includes three traditional beignets with marshmallow and chocolate drizzles and graham cracker crumbles. This delicious bite can be paired with the S’mores Latte. The toasted marshmallow drink is topped with fluffy whipped cream, chocolate drizzle, graham cracker crumble and a toasted marshmallow. If the s’mores flavor is not your favorite, there is also a Cinna-Toast Crunch Latte. This tasty cinnamon and maple latte is topped with whipped cream, cinnamon and Cinnamon Toast Crunch crumbs.
Overall, the new Beignets and Brew shop is worth a visit. This sweet shop is beautifully decorated and is the perfect spot for a quick breakfast, dessert or even a midday snack. The amazing flavors and large variety will entice customers to continue coming back for more.
