First time visitor to Lafayette

What's the place right across from the ball park? Is that Agave?

Yep. Agave. Good Margaritas, terrible food. Jmo

Dwyers Cafe in Jefferson st is good for any meal. Jefferson St has lot of bars. Other than Dwyers, eat at the other suggested places.

Hands down my favorite home cooked meals in Lafayette. The plate lunches there are fantastic.

Hey DoubleDawg, can you tell we're a little passionate about food here?

btw when Ole Miss asks where to eat, we'll just refer them to the nice STATE fan's thread. That ought to make for a serious case of redass

Seafood Buffett

Lagneauxs.com

Way over rated.

Old Tyme is obviously highly recommended and is in close proximity to campus.

Important question for an out of towner that may get sent here..... Do they still only accept cash as payment (or am I imagining that)?

That is correct, Olde Tyme only accepts cash or local checks. They do have an ATM there now so it isnt too big of a hassle

[DoubleDawg]

Heck yeah. I love to eat, myself. Y'all are making me think I need to take 2 trips!

[Cajun_RH]

All of this talk about food makes me Campus Copies way too much.

BWK, French press is directly between the fire station downtown and the downtown location of Agave. Turn off of Johnston to go to Don's downtown, pass it up and it will be right there on the left. It's a can't miss. Enjoy!

If you leave Lafayette hungry, it's your own fault.

For seafood (Crawfish) - Dons downtown for Crawfish Bisque never disappoints. (Hurry crawfish season is almost over)
For a somewhat eclectic menu go to the French Press across the street from Dons downtown.
For sushi Tsunami downtown
For Mexican - LaPaqua on Johnston or Aztecas on Ambassador Caffery (Avoid LaFondas no matter what anybody says)
For Italian - I Monelli or Alesi's both on Johston street.
For smoked meats Johnstons Boucaniere (you will not be disappointed) If you really want to get down with cajun go to Poches north of Breaux Bridge.

For a somewhat more elegant setting Cafe Vermilionville on Pinhook or Jollies also on Pinhook.

For Tapas - Pamplona Tapas on Jefferson.

Helmet, you are a smart man
