The Willow Cafe

We love the Willow Cafe! There aren't many cute spots in Thibodaux, but this is definitely one. Prime coffee shop/cafe vibes when you walk in. They have an average coffee menu, but the drinks are very good. The food is delicious. The sandwiches are very good. The bread? To die for. I absolutely love the panini-pressed bread. The desserts are what people come for, though. The cookies and cupcakes are so good. The employees are very friendly. They never get my orders wrong; however, this place is never very speedy. Not a great place to stop if you're in a rush or want something healthy (they do have salads). The food is very, very good.

The food was nice. The pastries were delicious. The ambience is quaint. The two women who worked there were kind and hospitable.

Their service was fast at lunch time about 12:45. Our server, Nora, explained anything we had questions on. The oysters almondine. appetizer was great. The phyllo wrapped stuffed shrimp was great. So, we enjoyed our lunch and hope to return soon.

I went in and came out with nothing. I wasn't greeted, asked about products what little available and wasn't answered I figured I wasn't wanted there so I turned and left. I just wanted to sit in since it's a cafe have a coffee and some beignets or something you know the cafe de monde experience but nah I'm not going back

I had to go back and change my review. As of today I went in this establishment and the service was just 360 of what I had originally experienced. The down to earth environment was just off. When our food was finished the woman who gave us our food called the name all rudely. My partner said thank you just shaking off the bad energy but she didn't even acknowledge the thank you either. Usually everyone's sweet and helpful. I'm very dissatisfied with todays visit. Even my sandwich melt tastes made without love due to whatever is going on in that place.

Visited on a Monday morning and had the cafe entirely to myself and my family. Lots of baked goods to choose from, though we skipped the sweets and went for a savory breakfast. I had the lumberjack sandwich which was loaded with meat and so incredibly filling. Loved the ham on this!! My daughter got the chocolate drizzle waffles, kind of small for a meal, but still good and cute to look at it. Caramel macchiato was a 10/10

Love love love this place for lunch! Turkey pesto and homemade tomato basil soup is the best! They also have some weekly specials that are drool worthy. Lets not forget about all the desserts on display, carrot cake and a coffee

I had a wonderful lavender vanilla latte and the Willow sandwich was out of this world. I would absolutely come again!

Just had lunch here. Very busy and had to wait a while. I ordered the Chicken Pesto Sammy and while the flavors were amazing I had maybe 2 bites of chicken. It was more pesto and red onions. The soup I ordered was great-Tomato Basil. Heard lots of good things and other sandwiches I saw looked to have substance, just very disappointed with the lack of chicken I got.

Ordered special ice tea of- berry tea, lemonade, peach syrup. It had absolutely no peach or lemonade whatsoever. It was just a watered down berry tea. And the cup was filled with ice so I got about 6 oz of tea. I was flabbergasted what i paid for. A total rip off.Carrot cake- I am a carrot cake lover and was so excited to see it displayed. it looked absolutely fantastic in the case. BUT it was absolutely tasteless. I could see carrots, nuts, and it was definitely moist. No taste of spices used in carrot cake. The cream cheese frosting was gallingly sweet I had to scrape it off (and I'm a cream cheese frosting lover). I couldn't believe it was tasteless.So shocked that an iced tea and slice of cake were so bad coming from a bakery.
