Bergeron’s Restaurant

To be honest, the waitresses were extremely friendly — Thus the three stars. The cheesy potatoes were fantastic and so were the french fries. But that is where it about stops. The Porkchop was so spicy I could only down about a third of it. My husband had a hamburger and he only had two bites an threw it away. The sauce that was on the hamburger was extremely spicy. If you like spicy food, then this is the place for you. Some people will say, well you are in the Bayou.
The to go cups for the coffee had no lids. Will make for a dangerous ride. The store side had less friendly help.

The smoked chicken wings changed my life. No exaggeration. This is now a permanent stop on my way in and out of Baton Rouge.

I came here for their seasonings and lunch. The crab pistolettes are by far my favorite. The smoked meat and boudin are very good too. Be careful of closing time. When they run out they won’t make more. They just close things down. But what you get is good. Been using their seasoning for years.

Super friendly, great spot, check out Bergeron’s Boudin and Cajun meats next door it’s terrific and cheap!

Love me some Bergeron’s. Thank god I don’t live anywhere near this place. Even if I lived 100 miles near here we got problems… Straight up down home blue collar Cajun comfort food right in the heart of it!
Boudin balls mania!!! I just ignore the fact there is minced liver inside because once these baby balls are fried up I could care less!!! Crawfish hand pies were good as well BUT I gotta give it up to those smoked chicken wings! Smoke’em if you got’em and they do indeed! Oh if you like chicharrones AKA pork rinds… the super crunchy Cajun cracklins at Bergeron’s are just like crack… somewhat addicting and sold by weight in a paper bag. but go easy biting into them… had to make sure all my «chiclets» we in tact yikes!
There is the «deli» side for the above items I devoured and frozen Cajun protein like alligator sausage. BUT the locals rave about their big dinner size portions of their daily lunch specials on the «restaurant» side of Bergeron’s. It’s the real deal… if your passing through BR get down here for authentic Cajun snacks!
5 stars for everything I ate. If it’s your first time here… stopping by during the lunch can be quite if you have questions about their food. Everyone who works there are nice and take good care of out of towners as well.

Sensory Overload!
Nothin’ fancy… just the BEST Smoked, Fried & Grilled foods you’ve ever seen or eaten!
They have the Best assortment of Specialty Meats, such as Stuffed Chicken with Crawfish & Rice, Stuffed Rabbit, Stuffed Porkchops, Stuffed Chicken Breast, Stuffed Shrimp, Stuffed Ribeye’s w/​Jalapenos, Cream Cheese, Spinach or Artichoke, wrapped in Bacon. They have
Rice & Crawfish Stuffed TurDucken, Sausages, Stuffed Mushrooms…& the list goes on & on & on! They have lots of yummy homemade desserts, as well.
We ordered 1 lb. of Pork Tasso, 6 Smoked Wings, 4 Stuffed Pistolettes & a Bag of the BEST Cracklins, with Lots of meat on them, to go. The Tasso & Smoked Wings were so dang good! I’m droolin’ just thinkin’ about ‘em! There were so many wonderful lookin’ dishes made up for take out or dine-​in. There are a few tables to dine in. I wanted to taste it all ! The Daily Plate Lunches vary each day and all of ‘em look so good!
Bergeron’s is very clean and the wait staff is so helpful and friendly! I look forward to my next visit ! I’m makin’ my list & gettin’ the cooler ready for my next trip right now! =D
+, 10% off if you’re carrying your gun. (CHL) There are plenty of signs that state the fact.

Good place to grab a quick flavorful lunch. One of the plate lunches can be shared with 2 adults, it’s a lot of food for the price. This use to be a regular haunt of mine until they started with the show your gun stuff! This may not be a put off for many put for me I have chosen to patronize other establishments in the area. This is supposed to be a restaurant and not your local gun show event. If you’re looking for somewhere else to go try the best little poboy house in port allen, it’s less than 3 minutes away next to the court house and the police station. **Hint-You’ll find most of the law enforcement officers at the best little poboy house and not at Bergeron’s.

Fantastic!
When you walk in to the restaurant do not expect to be seated, walk up to the counter to your left and the menu is on the wall. It’s quite extensive with a variety of yummy options.
The two girls at the front were just as nice as they could be. Azalea offered me a taste of the crawfish étouffée before purchase and came out to check on us and get to know us while we were eating. One of the cooks also came out to chat. So friendly! 10% off for carrying your gun which we definitely took advantage of.
I had the crawfish étouffée which came with a little salad topped with a creamy Italian dressing, potato salad and a roll for $ 9.49. They package it in a styrofoam to go container.
The ambiance is nothing fancy, much like a café or diner but don’t let it deter you. The food is fantastic and the people are amazing! :)

Great food (especially the shrimp étouffée and the sweet potatoes!), huge portions, reasonable prices, and a casual but friendly atmosphere. I’ve been there twice now and enjoyed it both times. A worthwhile stop if you’re hungry on the way to Baton Rouge.

Good food. Good atmosphere.
I had the rib plate lunch it was the Wednesday special. It was ok. I’ve had top rate bbq. And I’ve had cut rate bbq. This was in the middle. Bbq is about preference and what I should have ordered was a burger.
That all being said. They were good but very dry. And not a single sauce bottle in sight. The flavor was smoked and had some spice to it. The beans the baked beans were delicious and so was the potato salad.
Over all good experience. But next time I’m ordering a burger and I’ll update. When I do ;)

Best food in town. Love going there, they have the best plate lunches ever and the drive is not bad at all. Love the fried catfish and shrimp special. For all BBQ lovers make sure to go on Wednesdays for their ribs and BBQ chicken lunch special. Ribs fall off the bone and chicken is so moist. Once done with lunch visit their smoke house. You can literally buy anything to take home and cook with. The people their are so friendly and polite. If you have a conceal carry permit bring your gun and you will get 10% off.

I can’t begin to say how awesome this place is! The inside is very clean and spacious while feeling warm and homey. It was my first time and I will most definitely be back! I had the boudin poboy and was blown away it was very fresh and the flavors were great. The boudin casing had a great snap to it and was spiced perfect. They also offer a discount to law abiding gun owners who carry in the restaurant which makes this the safest restaurant around IMO. They also have a very nice meat market next store with a great selection of locally made sausage.

Average! Nothing like the smell of Clorox while you are trying to finish your lunch. Customers still here eating, don’t mop!!!

Love this place, nice folks and great food. Very safe restaurant! I didn’t see any «gun nuts» as the one comment says below. Just good God fearing citizens. I’ve got three tours in Iraq, and the world is not a safe place. Bergeron’s is a safe place.

Do not let the plain humble exterior fool you: this is a serious place! Specializing in «Cajun» meats you can get THE. BEST. CRACKLINS. here. They also have a wide selection of homemade sausages including a dynamite green onion sausage.
Sausages, pork of all types (hocks, ribs, Tasso), casseroles, crazy good crawfish pistolettes, and spices, salsas, quail eggs, you name it they have it! In addition to being able to purchase items from the case to eat now — they have a fantastic row of freezers full of things to take home and cook later.
For those of you who may hunt — they dress deer as well.
Newly added in the last year is a restaurant next door which we have not tried.

Fantastic spot ½ mile north of freeway. Worth the wait over the Atchafalaya!
Boudain, amazing ground chicken burgers with mix ins, best seasons fries ever, better than average sausage.
My 6 year old wondered why anyone would eat fast food when they have this!
Fast casual. Goo prices. Fed 5 for about $ 20.
Note: Saturdays are a «best of» shorter menu. Still plenty.

I’m going to go with two stars because for the price this place is just mediocre. It cost me $ 11 for a lunch plate and a drink. The chicken was dry and the black eyes peas tasted like they were out of a can. The rice dressing was pretty good. Nice sized portions and fast service are a plus. I think what ruined Bergeron’s for me was the discovery of Thee Jambalaya Shop next door to it. They have AMAZING food. Best shrimp fettuccine I’ve ever had. But this review is about Bergeron’s so let me stick to them. You can get in and out quick and there is plenty of seating. They do run out of the daily specials quick so get there early.

On our road trip home my husband and I stopped at the restaurant side of Bergeron for lunch. I was craving a sandwich and they had lots of poboy choices and I opted for the Philly cheesesteak (why I chose that in Louisiana I’m not entirely sure, but it was delish!) and my husband went for their boudin poboy and said it was amazing. The fries, however, were the highlight of the meal and to die for. I was so full but couldn’t stop stuffing them in my mouth. This is by no means an upscale place to eat, they serve all meals in to go boxes even if you are dining in, but prices are good and the food was very tasty!

I was leading an Audit in the Port Allen area and my hosts had Lunch brought in on each of the 4 days that we were working. It was all good and much more plentiful than I was ready to fully digest. My first clue was when the Office Manager replaced the «children’s plates» in the Kitchen with something more substantial.
The Thursday Lunch from Bergeron’s was probably the highlight of the Week. I had the Averie Special (Boneless Fried Chicken Breast topped with Swiss Cheese and Seafood Stuffing). It was really really good, but way too much food, and enough to make the afternoon to start a bit slow. Maybe that was the plan…:)

I experienced the restaurant side of Bergeron’s, and I have to say that I really enjoyed it! I had the St. Louis Style BBQ Ribs plate lunch. They are, quite possibly, the best ribs I’ve ever had. If you ever dream about ribs, these are the ones of your dreams — perfectly smoked meat falling off the bone and really excellent barbeque sauce. The sides were good too! I finished the entire meal, which is quite a feat because the portions are quite generous.
I like how their lunch set up works too. You go up to the counter, order, receive your food within minutes, and then sit wherever you can find a seat. It definitely makes it easy to get in and out if you have a limited amount of time before getting back to the office. The only thing I did not like was how stressed out the staff seemed. It affected their service a bit. However, that is not going to stop me from going back to enjoy the ribs and the other daily plate lunches!
