** BEIGENTS AND BREW **
With over 1,600 locations throughout the country, the Destin, Florida founded cafe shop has opened up shop in about 20 minutes away from me & I wanted to find out more about it. It’s pre-dominant in the Southeast but it has been expanding to the North and into the Mid-West. When you enter the place, you feel this clean atmosphere with the smell of fresh dough being fried. It’s a delicious smell and I couldn’t wait to have one. I got to the counter and ordered a 4 pack with buttercream sauce (based on the recommendation from the guy who was serving me), along with an iced tea.
I got a table and sat down to wait for my name to be called. I was looking around and I just felt relaxed. The restaurant itself is definitely instagrammable, which a lot of places are doing to retain customers. You can take cute pictures with your food and be able to enjoy a mirror selfie on the wall of mirrors. As far as the food itself goes, as the dude from the Mets (I know that I made this reference & no, the world isn’t going to end) sang OH MY GOD. They definitely cook them fresh, and immediately having them as soon as they were cooked was delicious (that’s an understatement). I regretted not getting the 12 pack, but the 4 was just right to try it out. Then you add the cool dipping sauce and it was amazing.
Overall, the experience at Beignets and Brew is the feel of the small lounge with a touch of a cozy cafe in France. It gives a sense of relaxation, brightness, and just wanting to hang out with friends. If there is one near you, I would definitely recommend going to it.
