“ The shrimp are perfectly fried, boasting a golden, crispy coating that locks in their juicy, tender flavor. Each bite delivers a satisfying crunch, followed by the sweet, succulent taste of fresh shrimp. The side of potato fries is just as satisfying, with a crisp exterior and fluffy interior, seasoned to perfection. They’re great for dipping in a bit of ketchup or hot sauce, providing a classic pairing to the fried shrimp. ”
“ I was driving through the area looking for someplace to grab a bite to eat. I did not want to eat at a national chain. I was looking for a good local spot. I drove past Villagers Cafe and had to turn around. The restaurant is in a small wood frame building that looks like it was a residence at one time. When I walked in I was greeted by one of the staff. She was bringing food to another customer as I walked in. I grabbed a seat and looked over the menu. They had burgers, seafood, and a number of po-boys. The special today was fried catfish. I decided that sounded like a good deal. I ordered fries and a IBC Root beer. I ordered at the counter and the lady said it would be right out. There are only about 6-7 tables in the restaurant. It was down home and very inviting. My food came out pretty quick. The fries caught me by surprise. They were cut flat circles. I love potatoes cooked like that but was not expecting it. If two people are eating one order of fries is plenty. The po-boy was very good. The French bread was fresh! Dressed with mayo. The catfish was hot and well seasoned. I could only eat half my po-boy and half the fries. Saved the rest for dinner. Next time I am in the area will definitely be dining at Villagers Cafe again. ”
“ The pot roast Po’Boy is one of the best in the Lafayette area, although all of the sandwiches are delicious. I love the Way they heat the bread in an oven to warm and crisp it. The fried potatoes are also a must. They do everything right at this tiny sandwich shop ”
“ Passing by this joint for 12 years never stopped. My mistake. Great food, large servings and super cheap prices. Half a Poboy and I'm stuffed only a super hero could eat a whole fast paced tiny place but it moves quickly. You must go here ”
“ Two friends and I were in Lafayette covering a local comic con, and asked one of the local artist for good place to eat. He pointed us to this place and we were not disappointed. We had three of their po'boys and all three were delicious. We had the pot roast, Philly, and villagers. The staff was very nice and accommodating. If I had any complaint, it seemed to be a bit small of a location for the tons of people I want to drag back here with me. ”
