Reve is a staple coffee shop in downtown Lafayette! Its the perfect place to grab a great latte and take a stroll to explore the downtown area, or you can just relax inside where the vibes are wonderful! And it's only 7 minutes from St. Leo the Great!
I (Rani!) ADORE Coffeeweed Cottage! This place is for my plant lovers (and coffee lovers of course). Coffeeweed combines a coffee shop, plant shop, and boutique all in one. The atmosphere there is just so fun! They serve some breakfast and lunch options as well! This hidden gem is located not far from downtown Lafayette and less than 10 minutes from St. Leo the Great.
I (Andrew) love the boudin links, fried boudin balls, and fried cracklins from here. If you aren't familiar with Cajun food, these are some staples to try. (Andrew is obsessed with this place, and honestly it's so yummy. Pepper jack stuffed boudin balls are my FAVORITE -Rani)
We (Rani and Andrew) love this donut place! We will both argue that this place has the best donuts ever. They make them hot and fresh in the morning if you were looking for a quick breakfast snack or midday snack. There are multiple locations throughout Lafayette!
This is the only remaining Borden's ice cream shop in the world, so be sure to step in for a yummy treat! Especially in the Louisiana heat!
