Bando’s – Beaumont
Many of our readers know Bando’s as one of the great Beaumont lunch restaurants.
That’s true, but there is a lot more going on at Bando’s!
Bando’s is equally popular for its restaurant, the gift shop, and for quality SETX catering- weddings, corporate events, anniversary parties, gradutation parties, and more.
Bando’s flagship building at 215 North 11th serves lunch in Beaumont on weekdays and holds events in the evenings. On a typical visit during lunch you’ll see quiet business meetings, old and new friends catching up, and happy diners of all ages from their teens to their golden years. “Fresh” is probably the signature word your fellow diners will use to describe their meals.
Soups are made by hand daily, you can choose your own sandwich ingredients so each item is to your liking, and they have signature favorites including chicken enchiladas, crab cakes, the Bando burger, and Chicken Ala Wesley. The fried catfish is also super popular- available on Fridays only. The private dining room can accommodate up to 50 for lunch. Our state of the art catering kitchen is 3000 square feet.
The gift shop offers some of the best boutique shopping in the area including collegiate items {17 schools including UT, A&M, LSU, & Georgia} , Godiva Chocolates, Sweet Shop Chocolates, Catholic inspirational/religious and Vera Bradley, Virgin Saints and Angels, the Julie Collection, Gourmet, Hobo leathers, and so much more.
One of the nice things about the gift shop is that there are quality items for men, women, and children. The staff can also help you make a wonderful basket or to help you choose a gift for a tough to shop for person on your list.
You’ll rarely have an issue finding a perfect gift at Bando’s.
You’ll have more trouble not finding too many gifts!
We’ve started going in with just the names of the people we’re shopping for on an index card to remind ourselves not to go overboard.
In addition to being one of Beaumont’s best lunch restaurants and gift shops, Bando’s is legendary for catering Southeast Texas events.
