Welcome to
Word of Mouth Café

We’ve been cooking together long enough that we know how to balance each other–comfort meets freshness.

Nestled between Hixson Brother's Funeral Home and the Rapides Parish Courthouse, you will find one of Alexandria's best kept secrets: a little white house with plate lunches that taste just like Grandma's. Word of Mouth Café is all about fresh food, down home atmosphere, and personal service. Come visit John and the gang for weekday lunch.

Friendly
Staff

John Gunter, owner/chef is an Alexandria Native. He followed his dream and with a leap of faith opened Word of Mouth Café in 2010. His southern hospitality shines though his culinary artistry. From his unique twist on a classic Louisiana dessert, Bread Pudding, to his various twist on tacos, John will charm your appetite.

Relaxing
