Reviews for Magnolia Cafe in St Francisville, LA
Nice little restaurant in Saint Francisville Louisiana. We were looking for a place for breakfast, on a Sunday morning while... visiting here, the choices were slim, so this is where we went. They do not serve breakfast here, so we made the best, and hadan early lunch. The food was good, although a little salty, and a little pricey for what we had. Our waitress was very polite,and took care of all of our needs. Read more

We stumbled upon this cafe by chance when we were out sight seeing in St. Francisville and we're searching for somewhere new to... eat. It was a tad bit hard to find as it it tucked away behind a little shop of some kind of the road. But once you find it,you'll be glad you did. First off, do not wear heels! The parking area is all rocks and I almost broke my ankle lol! Thisadorable little restaurant draws you in immediately with it's quaintness. On the outside of the restaurant, to the left, are abunch of tiny little cabins lined up in a row that reminded me SO MUCH of the movie Big Fish! (When the main characters stumblesupon the hidden village on the other side of the dark and scary woods? The town that time forgot.) All it needs is the whiteChristmas light strands complete with tied shoes thrown over them and it really is like a scene out of the movie! Apparently,they also rent out these cabins for holiday! I'll check them out at some point and let y'all know! The cafe looks small from theoutside and you are greeted with a great big smile from the friendly Wilbur-ish Pig at the entrance ramp. Inside however, thisis place is huge! It was quite busy when we went so we opted to eat outside on the dining porch area. It was very open, andthere were a lot of people and families there. They have a band area and there are flyers all over the place with info on whatevents and bands are playing there and when. The table we got was a bit tricky, we are a large group and some of the kidscouldn't quite reach the table, but we made it work. The food is a bit pricey, but it was decent. Our particular server wasobviously busy, but she kept the drinks coming, and was friendly enough. Two of the other servers, Mary and Jenny, wereincredibly nice and friendly, and chatted with us and the kiddos. Honestly, I can't remember exactly what I ordered, but theoverall consensus from the family was that it was good, but a bit pricey. The atmosphere is what was best. It has a bat Read more
Food is delicious, love the atmosphere and friendly staff! We really enjoy this place.
Quaint place. Very friendly staff. I had the crawfish dip with toasted baguette. Very good and a Lil spicy. The desserts look... great. I'll be back. Read more
The Magnolia Cafe never disappoints. Although the menu seems to have changed just a bit, the sensation salad is as good as I... remember. Quite a few more sandwiches on the menu. Started out with spinach and artichoke dip/chips. Yum! Had the chickenmag with sliced chicken breast, avocados, alfalfa sprouts tucked in a pita pocket. The pita was crisp, not soft like a taco. It usually comes on an onion roll, but if you get half soup/half salad, the onion roll isn't an option. Comes with a pickle. All was very good. Wait was short, service was fast and attentive.

This was my first time eating here and it was delicious. I had the special, baked chicken, broccoli casserole, and sensation... salad. My husband had a grilled shrimp poboy with sweet potato fries. I didn't get enough sensation salad so I ordered a smallsalad. It was really good. If I'm in the area again I will come back. Read more
Very nice place for our Sunday lunch. Glad that we were able to get into this busy spot. It was busy for good reason!
