Beck's is my favorite place...I love it so much. The food is amazing and brings a breath of fresh to Philadelphia cuisine. The specials are always on point and never disappoint. Essential spot for all foodies..the gator gumbo over jumbalaya is my favorite:)
First of all. Idk who's Grandma you're hiding back there, because I had the bread pudding with the vanilla sauce.... My God. If I would've died right after that. It would've been perfect. I recommend everything on the menu.
We were walking through Reading Terminal and noticed two seats were available at the bar. We weren't really hungry but wanted to share something different. We ordered the Beck's Cajun Cafe Gator Gumbo and White Rice for $9.95 with a side of the Mini Cornbread Loaf for $2.00. The Gumbo was so flavorful and the right amount of heat. Our waitress was really sweet. Service was fast. They were getting people in and out. Opposite where we were there was a line and that was for ordering to go. Beck's was bustling, however the staff was composed and got the people what they came for. It was great to see all the action and partake in a delicious lunch.
It's been quite some time since I had good Cajun Food, so was really excited when I saw this place inside the Reading Terminal Market. I got some Shrimp Etouffe and Alligator Gumbo. Both of them tasted quite good but definitely less spicy.
Visiting Philly for the week and got a blackened catfish po boy and sides for lunch from here!
Prices are really affordable and the po boys definitely hit the spot.
No matter what you order as your main dish, I recommend getting the cajun fries. They are great by themselves but I think it goes really well with any sandwich/meat.
Fried Mac and cheese was really tasty as well. If I visit next time, I would try their options to add gumbo or bacon on it to enhance the experience too.
Food was delicious and the service was excellent. The Mac and cheese balls to me weren't the best I've had, but okay. The have a seating area around thier kitchen which is great. You can see them freshly prepare your food.
This a great place to stop for lunch when in Reading Terminal Market. We've had the gumbo w jambalaya rice, alligator Po' Boy, and a few other things. All are very tasty. Many other great choices on the menu. Definitely a place to check out!
GREAT Shrimp Po Boy and Cajun Fries. The Po Boy was incredible. Shrimp fried perfectly, FRESH lettuce, tomato, pickle and creole mayo on a great baguette. Seriously awesome. Then the cajun fries … crispy french fries with jalapeño peppers and sweated onions. And the dipping sauce is no joke. Counter seating or take out. I sat at the counter, good service and plenty of hot sauce available. Would definitely do again … as their other stuff looked great too. Jambalaya, muffaletta, etouffee, bread pudding etc.
Really good stuff and they give a 10% discount if you're on jury duty! (If u ask)
Obviously busy, the line moves. Service is pretty solid, I’ll give it a 9/10. Food was good. I didn’t get any sauce so overall I’ll have 7/7.5 out of 10. The fried Mac balls are a 10! Can’t beat that! Po boy was fresh! Bread was soft!
This place was so good! The alligator gumbo was delicious, just the right amount of spice.. and you can't beat real southern sweet tea. I also got bread pudding which was very good- great texture, sweet but not overwhelmingly so, warm and perfect. I would definitely come here again!
As someone who has vacationed in New Orleans; stopping in at Beck’s was a taste of the Big Easy.
The chicken and sausage gumbo breakfast bowl with an egg and cornbread was amazing. And the beignets were perfectly warm and sweet and doughy.
The employees were energetic even though the Reading Terminal Market was just opening up as we got there.
So glad we visited Becks Cajun Cafe! The food was incredible - seriously mouth watering! The menu has something for everyone and you will not leave disappointed or hungry!
