Yay Beignet

What better way to enjoy a rainy day in Georgia than stopping by Yay Beignets for an Ethiopian coffee ceremony and some incredible beignets! The people here are beautiful and welcoming, and the coffee ceremony was absolutely amazing—some of the best coffee I’ve ever had. We had to order a dozen beignets “just in case” the rain continued, and the bourbon glaze was a total hit. That dozen didn’t last long! Coffee, beignets, and awesome people—highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a warm, delicious, and memorable experience.

Adorable little shop! They recently changed locations, I like this one. Has a very inviting little seating area outdoors. Has a cute ice-cream stand (seperate business) in the same location. Lovely Ethiopian coffee, great beignets, and they sell king cake for Mardi Gras. Good customer service too❣️✨️. $3 for coffee, and $18 for a dozen beignets with your choice of dipping sauces ❣.

Yay Beignets is an absolute gem! The beignets are fresh, hot, and perfectly fluffy with just the right amount of sweetness—crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The strawberry dipping sauce takes them to the next level 🤤🍓—sweet, creamy, and the perfect complement to the warm beignets. The service is friendly and welcoming, and the vibes are great whether you’re grabbing a quick treat or hanging out for a bit. If you’re craving a New Orleans–style indulgence, this spot is a must-visit. We will definitely be back!

Ethiopian coffee was smooth and delicious. My partner had the Ethiopian tea and he said it was amazing. Beignets were made fresh to order. The dipping sauces of dark chocolate and praline caramel are a must! Definitely the best in ATL ❤️

I came here on a rainy day and it was the coziest coffee shop I could have picked! There was light jazz in the background, warm lights that feel like home and the delicious smell of beignets baking in the oven. I actually only came in for a coffee and to get some work done (yes they have wifi!!!) but I had to try a beignet after seeing how fresh they looked. The barista was so kind and offered me one to try and I ended up getting 3 more because it was SO fluffy, soft and perfectly sweet. Highly recommend this spot, it’s such a gem and just full of good energy ❤️ PS I do not say this lightly — don’t sleep on the caramel sauce!! Definitely worth getting it on the side.

My wife and I had a taste for beignets and Yay came up in several different searches. We decided to give them a try since we've never had Ethiopian coffee which was a featured item. I have had beignets in New Orleans from the famous establishments and in my opinion, these are some of the best beignets I've ever had.😋 We ordered an assortment of; plain-no powder confection sugar, glazed, and traditional powder confection. We first tasted the plain beignets with no confection sugar. They were so delicious light and fluffy, we did not need any dipping sauce. The glaze and powder confection only added to the delicious delight. Let me say the glaze enhanced the beignets flavor without tasting like glazed donuts. The traditional powder confection beignets totally satisfied our cravings. We also tried the bourbon praline dip and it was a complimentary delight. The Ethiopian coffee was also very good non acidic and smooth. We were served by the owners who were very pleasant and inviting. I highly recommend giving them a try when in the mood for some good coffee and treats.

Warm fluffy and delicious beignets with choice of several toppings. On Saturdays at 11:00 there is an Ethiopian cultural demonstration of slow roasting & and serving their coffee. Wonderful 1st visit!

We were on our way home from our coffee purchase at T***** J**'s, looking for a coffee shop to stop at. This was our second choice, the first one (because it was close by) was closed. We got a simple Ethiopian coffee with cream and an order of beinets. OH. MY. GOODNESS!!! these beinets were nice and big, fluffy and oh so yummy 😋. Would definitely make this a must have stop every time we do our coffee run. Oh and the coffee, yes it was very good too! Not burnt tasting and full bodied. They also sell ice cream of all different flavors. Kids don't like coffee, they got hot cocoa too. Stop by and enjoy a little break!
