a little confusing on how to order... you have to walk all the way back of the restaurant. there's a paper menu on the left side where you fill out your lunch order and hand it to a lady on the left side. then you walk to the right where you tell them what you ordered and also place your coffee and beignet order. there is no clear signs of what to do lols i got the french dip dressed po boy - so it is with lettuce, tomato, mayo and the roast beef. i dipped it in the cup of beef jus they provided, and it was as good as a sandwich could be. i really liked the potato soup! very creamy. the beignet fingers were doughier than regular beignets and a lot easier to eat!! you can also see them making them fresh right in front of you - turnaround is super fast. the place had a lot of open seating. it could've been a little cleaner but i guess the powdered sugar makes it easy for things to get messy read more

The workers there are very kind. You can tell they have a high volume output. I will say that the beignet were dense. Now I am no native to Louisiana at all. So if that's how they are supposed I'm all for it. They load up your beignet with lots of powdered sugar that a plus and leave powdered sugar containers on the table to add to it. They have their own coffee mixture with cream and sugar added to it. But they do have extra condiments to add too if you would like. Very affordable and bang for your buck. Very crowded place so it's def a fav within Baton Rouge. read more

Coffee Call - Beignet fingers - Cafes Near Me - Baton Rouge, Louisiana

Coffee Call was so good, I found myself back the very next morning! What started as a quick stop for a classic beignet and café au lait turned into a full-on food experience. During my first visit, I ended up trying the turkey po' boy and a comforting bowl of chicken noodle soup--and I'm so glad I did. A kind server walked me through the steps of building my perfect po' boy, which made the experience feel extra personalized. After that, I joined the line to place an order for the beignets, and let me tell you--they were pillowy, warm, and just the right amount of sweet. They were so good, I came back the next morning to grab another batch to take home! The overall vibe at Coffee Call is relaxed and inviting. The pace is calm, and every staff member I interacted with was friendly, helpful, and welcoming. Whether you're a local or just visiting, don't hesitate to give this place a try. It's a Baton Rouge staple for a reason! read more

Thank goodness for Coffee Call. I'm embarrassed to admit there were multiple nights during my recent trip to Baton Rouge when a late night hankering for beignets led me here. These are so damn good. Hot and fresh pillows of dough topped with sweet sugar. It's a pretty no frills operation but that's what makes it great. The one accoutrement they do offer is a shaker bottle of extra powdered sugar at the table which I took advantage of (although I uncapped it and just poured on the sugar, no shame here). I'm actually sad I don't live closer as I will be dreaming about these for a long time. read more

This was the first stop on a family trip to the Emerald Coast. We left Houston super early in the morning and our plan was to get coffee in Baton Rouge as it was our halfway point. I got on my trusty Yelp app and found this place, right off the highway. The high ratings made it a no brainer for me. It is located in a corner of a little shopping strip with plenty of parking. It was early so we beat the crowds but it quickly got busy shortly after we arrived. I had a little deja vu as it looked very similar to a place I had in New Orleans called Morning Call, but with a different color scheme. Not sure if there is any affiliation. The space is large with plenty of seating. There are freezers off to the side with ready to heat items like gumbo and other Louisiana favorites. They have an open kitchen and you can see the staff hard at work. Customer service was ok, not alot of pleasantries, but I'm sure they were still waking up like us. The menu is pretty basic. Their claim is that they have the best beignets in Baton Rouge. I appreciate they don't say in the state because New Orleans might have something to say about that. The idea was to get coffee and hit the road, but when we saw the beignets coming out, we decided we would take time to enjoy some. Coffee wise they have that good ole Cafe Au Lait in different variations. I went with the vanilla hazelnut one and it tasted like regular coffee with just a hint of flavor. It was ok. The beignets won me over though. As soon as you order them, they drop them so they come out pillowy soft, with mounds of powdered sugar on them. I won't go as far as saying they're the best I had, but very good nonetheless. We also got beignet fingers which made for a way cleaner eating experience. It was some of the fams first beignet experience and they were happy. They also have a lunch menu which consists of sandwiches and soups and it looked pretty good. Overall, I was happy with this random stop we made here. As usual, Yelp lead me to the goods. I'd stop by if in the area again. read more

My goodness! Straight out the grease and powdered down with sugar. Delish! Service is quick. The song area very spacious and bright. But the real star is their beignets! Crunchy exterior and a soft dough inside that doesn't taste doughy. Had I not just finished eating for lunch... I'd order more. Don't sleep on this place. read more

It's a community meeting spot for seniors and ladies groups. Orders of coffee I. White ceramic cups and plates of beignets and beignet fingers filled the powdered sugar covered tables. Orders were taken at the end of the line with self-serve coffee, cafe au lait and hot chocolate in dispensers. The beignet fingers kept under a hot lamp in w small tray. It was hot when served with freshly sprinkled of powdered sugar. The cafe au lait did not have the strong hickory coffee flavor of Cafe du Monde. It tasted of more milk and slightly sweeter without adding sugar than Cafe du Monde. The beignet fingers were definitely easier to eat without making a mess! It was as good as the regular-sized beignets. The atmosphere is similar to Cafe du Monde. read more

Our stop at Coffee Call was a complete fluke, as one of my friends needed to swing by Walmart while we had some time between events during my graduation weekend at LSU. While my friend went to Walmart, we went to get gas and decided to meet up at Coffee Call. Little did we know that this wasn't just a coffee shop, but a fantastic place to grab some authentically legit Louisiana lunch and dessert. The staff was AMAZING. So friendly and helpful and probably used to dealing with tourists like ourselves just coming in for graduation. Having not had much of anything for breakfast, I was quite hungry and became even more so after seeing that there was a Roast Beef Po'Boy on the menu. I'm sure there are other places to get a Roast Beef Po'Boy in Louisiana, but this one was absolutely delicious. There were two sizes - the one I got and a bigger one than this - and this size was just perfect for what I needed for lunch. On top of that, the gravy was so damn good that I mopped up every last bit of it with the bread. Luckily, I saved me some room for one of those delectable beignets which hit the spot, too. read more

Coffee Call is a Baton Rouge institution. Its a place for dates, catching up with friends, homework, and to revel in sugary goodness. I'm not a big fan of the cafe au lait or the coffee, but you don't go to coffee call for the coffee. You go to Coffee Call to eat the best biegnets in the city. Its also a great place for business meetings. If you want to be a true businessman and nail the big meeting to get that promotion, do what I do: I wear black to Coffee Call to show dominance over all the other customers. I shower myself in powdered sugar before the rest of the team shows up. Once the other business people arrive, fit as many beignets in your mouth as possible. I can fit roughly 8 beignets my mouth. If you can only fit 2 or 3, thats okay. The point is just to make sure you hold eye contact with anyone that looks your way. As the meeting unfolds, you tap powdered sugar from the shaker onto anyone that disagrees with you or gets in your way. You can also sprinkle sugar on anyone that says something supportive of your ideas. This has won me 3 big projects and 4 promotions at my big business, Bigly Business. Anyway, Coffee Call is good. I like the beignet fingers. read more

Incredibly rude! Ive never been treated so poorly, i didnt even make it to the food. Disgusting don't recommend

Absolutely love to get beignets from here! Always hot, fresh, and open later! Soooooooo good!

It's always busy, which is a good sign people love this place, They turn orders so quickly that there's not enough bus boy help, so the tables aren't cleaned fast enough. The beignets are hit and miss. Sometimes, they have to fill so many orders so quickly that they undercook the beignets and you get some bites of raw dough. Also, these beignets aren't light and somewhat puffy like most beignets. They are heavy. One of the weekday gems are the biscuits. The smoked sausage biscuit is second to none. read more

Next best thing to Cafe DuMonde when in Louisiana. Ordered 3 beignets for me and my hubby to share then ordered 3 more for my parents to share. All of us enjoyed them. They are always fresh, hot and amazing! Service is always great and the ambiance is always nice but busy. Don't come if you are in a rush bc then you won't get fresh beignets and don't get mad at the staff. Can't wait to come back read more

Yes, it's located in a shopping center but step inside and it feels like you stepped back in time. The decor is minimal but charming with some old school lighting. Grab a tray and a mug and fill up your own coffee. There are no fancy Starbucks drinks here. They have iced coffee, and it's fine, but just get a mug of the hot stuff and keep moving. Your choices are beignets or beignet fingers (smaller/thinner pieces of dough). Unless you are extremely hungry, with a big group, or don't mind diabetes, get the regular plate of beignets. They are freshly-made, as light as fried dough can be, and delicious. They add a ton of powdered sugar to the beignets and the fingers and, if you don't agree, there are big shakers of powdered sugar on each table so you can move your own personal expiration date forward even quicker. There was so much sugar on certain tables, I was reminded of Tony Montana in Scarface. IYKYK. Come for the excellent beignets but don't expect fancy coffee. But definitely come for the beignets. read more

Grew up hanging out at Coffee Call with friends and have always loved the beignets and hot chocolate. Haven't tried too much else, a muffin here or there, but I can say 100% that the recipe for the beignets is perfection. I still miss wraparound outdoor seating from their previous location on college (many, many years ago when Walmart bought, built, and changed things up). This one though does have the perk of a drive thru though. Recently, I knew I'd be driving by and called for a poboy to go. Somehow I've gone to Coffee Call what feels like hundreds of times but never tried anything besides breakfast stuff. I ordered the barbecue poboy, and it was fresh and ready plus waiting for me in the drive thru line when I got there. Can't beat that service, and of course, my love for supporting local ensures I'll be back for more! So many more options to choose from including a fridge of soups and salads to go that I must try! read more

What an AMAZING experience for my first time having Beignets!!!! Lemon flavored was sooo good but the Chocolate filled.....they're aren't enough words!!! INCREDIBLE.

Coffee Call - Small order finger beignets and order of regular beignets - Cafes Near Me - Baton Rouge, Louisiana

This place holds a special place in my heart, as I've been coming here during the winter season since my childhood, and now, as I'm about to graduate from college, it's become a cherished tradition for my family to visit every weekend once the cold weather sets in. There was even a time when we were close with the owners, and we'd occasionally receive a small order of fingers on the house. Pairing the beignets with a hot chocolate used to be my favorite, but as I've grown older, it has become a bit too sweet for my taste. What's remarkable is that the quality has remained unchanged over the years, consistently meeting my expectations every time I order a plate of their famous beignet fingers. The square beignets are equally delightful, always hot and fluffy. I recommend opting for dine-in to savor the freshness on the plate, as opposed to the risk of them turning soggy in a paper bag. For takeaway, a pro tip is to get the beignets in one bag and the sugar in another to maintain that perfect texture. Over the 15+ years of my visits, I've witnessed some changes in the interior, with new wall paintings and other additions, but the essence has largely stayed the same. I will say, one notable and sad change is the removal of the water fountain and glass cups for the water. The staff, including the cashier and those clearing the tables, are consistently friendly. The nostalgia and warmth of this place make it a timeless and cherished part of my winter tradition. This place is my #1 beignet spot. Cafe du Monde who? read more

Baton Rouge is synonymous with many things and Coffee Call's beignets should be near the top of your list. Hitting Coffee Call late at night or early in the morning is a favorite past time. Incidentally now I see they have expanded the menu to include a small selection of poboys and soups for lunch. Growing up here, I used to go to Coffee Call when they were at their previous location a block away on the same side of College Drive. They moved to this newer location awhile ago. It's much bigger and has a drive thru, but their beignets are still the best in Baton Rouge! Large spacious dining room and coolers on the far wall filled with containers of gumbo, chili soup, mushroom soup, salads, and half gallon jugs of Iced cafe au lait and iced amaretto. We got there 30 minutes closing after the LSU UAB game. Start at the end of the line. Grab a lunch tray and put your cut on it. Then go down the line and pick your dispenser of cafe au lait, coffee, or hot chocolate. At the end of the line, square up with the cashier with what you want to order. We got an order of beignets, a small beignet fingers and hot chocolate. Go ahead and grab a bunch of napkins (powder sugar will go everywhere) at the side table and find yourself a table. About 5 minutes later, they called my name and I went back to the cashier to pickup my food. The order of 3 large beignets are snow covered with powdered sugar and "steaming" hot. If that's a small plate of fingers, I'd hate to see the large! We ate as much as we could. Went to the side table and got a white to-go bag from the large stack. Those pillows of doughy goodness really hit the spot. Yom Yom Yom Yom! There's not much to say if you know what a good beignet should taste. Their hot chocolate on this cool night was spot on! Their coffee is also arguable one of the best in town... hence the name of the establishment. Perhaps one day I'll get to try their poboys and gumbo. It's on my to-do list! read more

Stopped by as it is open late and I had to kill a couple of hours while my child was at a dance. This place oozes nostalgia and has the French cafe vibe. I remember spending many late nights here back in college hanging out with friends, though that was back at the old location across the parking lot. Besides the prices, not a lot has changed. The fingers and coffee take me back to a time when life was simpler. How can you really go wrong with dough freshly fried on order and covered in powdered sugar? The service is always friendly. This place was always a favorite for my grandfather. I look forward to coming back for many years to come. read more
