Reviews for The Francis Smokehouse & Specialty Meats in St Francisville, LA

Great food and I love how reasonably priced it is. If you're in town, I would recommend you stop by. Corn pudding is the best!

We were on our way back to north Louisiana and pulled over for a quick bite. The place had a few customers sitting outside on... the porch and people coming and going consistently for take out, that?s always a good sign. I ordered a boudin ball with cheeseand after I finished it I wished I had gotten 2-3 more. So so good. The company I was with got the pulled porch sandwich and itlooked great as well. I love that they give you the bbq sauce on the side and not already on the sandwich. This will definitelybe a new regular stop when headed down south. Read more

Decent boudin. Pulled pork is ok. I tried 2 hamburgers the other day. It took 45 minutes to get them. The buns were good, the... patties were overcooked to the point that the outsides were charred and the insides were totally dried out. The bacon was ofgood quality but also over cooked. The cheese was baked on so long that it was dried out and hard. The lettuce and the tomatowere wilted so badly that they seemed to have been cut a long time before. Given the price I would have expected better. Theonion was about 3/4 of an inch thick. The seasoned french fries were cold and leathery, even though I ate them immediately. The pork and beans were better than many other places I've been but tasted like "Showboat" canned beans that had been welldoctored. The Milky Way pie, which they comped me because they took so long, was good. The second hamburger was alsoincorrectly dressed, (they forgot the onions and added pickles) in addition to being way over done. Will I go back? Probablynot, fast food places are cheaper, faster, and not as dry. For me, not worth the price or the wait. Read more

I really enjoy eating at the Francis. The service is always excellent and I always enjoy the food. Definitely a great place to... go during Crawfish season but their other food is always delicious. These pictures are from our most recent visit. Read more

Good food in the heart of St. Francisville! We stopped in after touring the Audubon State Historic Site for a meal and it was... really good. The boudin balls are HUGE and very tasty. We also tried a 2-meat, 2-sides barbecue meal with a half chicken andbrisket. The chicken, while juicy, just didn't have much flavor to it. It somehow smelled smoky, but really didn't taste smokyor barbecued. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't very memorable. The brisket, however, was amazing! I'm not a huge brisket fan soyou've got to have some pretty serious brisket to get a thumbs-up from me, but this lean, tender, juicy brisket is somethingworth going back for. As for the sides, we got baked beans and corn pudding. The meal also came with a piece of garlic toast.The toast and corn pudding were wonderful. The beans were good, but they were too sweet. I love sweet baked beans, but thesewere just a bit too sugary. They weren't really bad, just overly sweet enough for us to avoid them on future visits. Their menua fairly huge selection which is nice, but it seems like they're trying to offer too much at once. When places do this somethingusually suffers, but since this was my only visit I can't say that's the case here. They have tons of prepared meats along withboudin balls, boudin links, meat pies, cracklin, and more. You can grab a snack, a meal, or meats to cook later at home. It'sthe kind of place I'd stop in frequently if I lived in the area. A big plus for us were the picnic tables out front since webrought our dog along. You can bring your best friend and still enjoy a great meal! I recommend trying The Francis if you get achance. You won't be disappointed. Read more
