Gumbo Stop Cafe

What a great stop, we needed a quick break and found a little bit of NO in Huntington! The food had all the expected flavors of the Mardi Gras. The service was excellent and the ambience of the seating area was perfectly suited to the food.

Amazing food. I had cake and tried my friends sausage gumbo it was fantasitc. We got our food within 5 minutes of ordering. Its so cozy in here too 4 tables and a bar and delicously cheap food make this a cant miss spot

Stopped in at the Gumbo Stop Cafe with a friend for lunch today. This was our first time here, every was very nice and so helpful! I ordered the jambalaya and thought it was fantastic, and it was so steaming hot! My friend got the muffuletta sandwich and cheese grits and thoroughly enjoyed both. Both of our meals can out very quickly with great service. Can't wait to have lunch here again! Great Cajun food in West Virginia.

Got our order to go after an event in Huntington. I hadn't had the chance to eat here before so I got the Cajun food sampler. It features gumbo, jambalaya, red beans and rice, and shrimp Étouffée ($15.99) everything was super delicious and flavorful. I'm not a huge shrimp fan, but they were well seasoned and a good texture. The grits were amazing. The gumbo was perfect on this rainy day. My husband got the Blackened Catfish and Andouille Smoked Sausage Étouffée over Cheesy Garlic Grits ($14.99) and he really liked it. The fish was large and flavorful, the sausage was tasty. And he also really loved the grits. I'm usually in town on Sunday when they are closed so this was a real treat. The two folks working were friendly and accommodating. Will definitely eat here again.

Great for quick service. I stop in every chance I get .definitely worth going out of your way .

Food and service were terrific! I liked the gumbo/ it's not too spicy at all but you could add spice, and the Kentucky Butter cake combined with strawberries and cream was addictive!Cute decor too- and a superb location being right by the historical museum.

Delightful, new to me spot, in my college town! Love seeing new and more unique spots coming to town and not just chain restaurants. I ordered the beer battered shrimp po boy and my husband ordered the shrimp étouffée with grits. The po boy was delicious even after a good 12 min drive back to where we were staying. I'm sure it would have been even better (shrimp more crispy, had I not had a drive. My only negative was I wasn't a huge fan of the bread... it was a tad on the dry side. I sampled my husbands grits with a bit of the étouffée sauce and it was SO good! I was told carry out would take 10-15 minutes but it took a tad longer. I was ok with this since my drive took about the same as my original estimate. The staff were super nice and fun to chat with while I waited for everything to finish up. We'll definitely be back anytime we're in town visiting family/friends!

Food is phenomenal Outstanding and the service only adds to the experience. Quaint place with a personal touch.

Definitely the best and one of (if not the only) place to get Cajun food around here. Try it.

I had gumbo there a couple of days ago. It was awesome. I'm sure that you will be happy that you ate there.
