Cafe Bienville

This place is tiny so I can imagine it being hard to get a table. We went on a weekday. I really liked the beignets. They were some of the best I've ever had. I also had a creme Brulee coffee and a Caprese breakfast bowl with andouille sausage added to it and both were incredible! This is quickly becoming one of my favorite spots for breakfast!

The creole cuban sandwich and the rosemary chicken sandwich were fantastic. This was the best cuban my husband has eaten in the panhandle. We also had the gumbo and black beans and rice soups. Both were very delicious, neither had too much salt, which seems to be an issue with these types of dishes here along the panhandle. The gumbo was great, especially adding a bit of hot sauce. We finished up with beignets, which were actually bigger and better than Cafe Du Monde. The only complaint has to be the cafe au lait, which was not strong enough. The chicory coffee was good, but just brewed a little too weak for adding the milk. Also, the silverware had some food residue on it, but was easily wiped off.
All in all this is probably the best place to eat in Niceville. The owners were very nice and service was fast. The food is wonderful, with the best beignets east of New Orleans.

Went there after an appointment elsewhere for a quick stop for lunch.
The place is cute, small (they opened up a small additional seating room when too crowded).
The pulled pork sandwich wad delicious. Meat was done to my liking, and the airline finished off the sandwich nicely
I ended up ordering an order of beignets to go .. they were warn, perfectly powdered and delicious as a treat when I got home.
I'd recommend as a lunch spot, but be aware of limited seating around regular lunch time.
(Note .. Ground level with disabled parking out front. You can order ahead for pickup as well)

We stopped in for breakfast on a recommendation. They had more than the typical bacon and eggs. After watching several go by our table, I wish I would've gotten one of their sandwiches. I guess that's for next time.

Wow!!! I was transported back to the French quarter today with the best muffalota sandwich and gumbo. This is truly a must visit place if you are searching for true Cajun food! It gets my best review, it's like the noel clean food!!!

Best beignets in the gulf coast! My girlfriend and I are visiting for Christmas, and had them the day before they closed for the holidays. Unfortunately she was instantly hooked, and Cafe Bienville was closed for the next few days. So all she could talk about was getting more beignets. She was insatiable, not even Christmas gifts could appease her. Today we finally got our fix, and thought a poem would be appropriate to express our feelings:

There once was a lady, a true culinary queen Whose passion for pastry was never unseen She'd visit Cafe Bienville with such glee For there, the most delectable beignets could be found, you see

She'd speak of their texture, light as air Sprinkled with sugar, a culinary affair The aroma, oh how it would make her swoon She simply couldn't resist their allure, so true

Her friends would often join her at the cafe To share in her joy, her love to savor
For a beignet from Cafe Bienville, there is no compare A culinary masterpiece, beyond compare

So if you ever find yourself at Cafe Bienville's door Do not hesitate, try a beignet, that's for sure You'll see the lady there, with a smile on her face Indulging in her love, a true culinary grace

This place is great. Very casual, you order and pick up at the counter and can sit wherever. I only had the beignets(amazing) and the Aztecs mocha iced (nice kick in it) but the bang mi sandwiches smelled amazing. One of the customers told me that he’s from Louisiana and he loves it here. I can’t wait to come back and try another item. If you’re here for the coffee, get it hot and sit down because you’ll get it in an actual coffee cup. That is pretty nice to me and makes me feel very welcome. Place got a little busy around 11 on a Saturday but I still could get some reading in. There’s parking in the rear.

Been at this location 2 months but atmosphere very nice. Staff super friendly and had great customer service. .. food a tad spicy but real good.. Beignets delicious👌. Would recommend and I will definitely return soon (gotta try something else on menu)

Okay anyone who views this. This place is ssssoooooo awesome. Food is out standing and they make their owns whipped cream and scones they were so awesome. Limited time on the pumpkin scones as you understand why. Very awesome family style restaurant. They even have a back area for larger families. If in Niceville, FL. I highly recommended this place saved a copy of the hours so you can see the. Owned by a vet. and if you have a U.S. flag to be disposed of properly, there is a basket that one can place it in.

Small, no frills, self-help counter, ok food. What they call "Home Fries" are deep-fried frozen cubed potatoes. Very dry.
