Restaurants near Cankton

“Friendly service. Best snocone!”

“Cute lil bar, friendly atmosphere, good customer service. They have two pool tables, Dj playing music. Lots of cold beer and plenty of different hard liquor choices. 2 poker Machines, for those who like to Gamble.”

“Looked for a sit down crawfish boiler between Ville Platte and Lafayette that was boiling for lunch on a Saturday. Cankton Cafe was one of the few sit down places open and boiling. The place was easy to find with plenty of parking. The staff was very friendly and attentive and the crawfish seasoning and quality was above average. Definitely a small town restaurant worth taking a detour for.”

“Great staff and some of the absolute best pizza in the state. The habanero cheese bites and swamp monster pizza were pure fire 🔥 perfect flavor with a touch of heat”

“Five Mile is a great breakfast and lunch restaurant. Great healthy options!”

“Very nice experience for my first visit. The food tasted great and service excellent.”

“A perfect fusion of American classics and Louisiana dishes cooked over open wood-fueled flame , served up in a comfortable and modern concept. Came on recommendation from two different locals who said this was the best restaurant in Lafayette. We were not disappointed. Reservations were needed, but the hostess was able to accommodate us by the kitchen. It worked out GREAT. Was able to see the chef, Sullivan, and his crew perform their magic on each of the dishes. Every member of the staff was very friendly - from the hostess, servers, chef, our waiter Zach, and the general manager Aaron. Just get two orders of the Roasted Oysters to start. Trust me on this one. Even the Mac and Cheese was delicious! The creme brulee was delectably perfect. Get it! If cocktails are your jam, you won't be disappointed with the selection. My only gripe was that it was very loud on a Saturday at 7 PM. Felt like it was a night club. Made conversation challenging at times. If you need to change diapers, the unisex bathrooms will have accommodations for your baby. A thoughtful touch. Will definitely return if I ever come back to Lafayette.”

“We went in Saturday without a reservation and lucked out with the last table available. I love the atmosphere. I appreciate the good wine choices and had a great glass of Malbec. Our entrees were excellent. We had pizza and the special of the night. Service was excellent and we will certainly be back!
Reminder all bread is made in-house and to die for!

Vegetarian options: I am not a Vegetarian but try to have two - three plus days of only veggies per week. There are plenty of pasta and vegi options or pizza or calzones and ingredients are of high quality!”

“Awesome food, awesome atmosphere, but better people! It has stood the test of time for a reason! Go check it out you won’t regret it!”

“We had a birthday celebration on Saturday night. I called for reservations a week in advanced, received a text confirmation minutes later. I then received a text reminder on Friday. THEN a phone call an hour before. The service was excellent. The food was fantastic and well priced. The drinks were well made. Couldn't have asked for a better birthday dinner with family and friends.”

“Johnsons is always delicious, never had anything I didn’t like. Extremely friendly staff. One of Lafayette’s best for sure!”

“Gary’s has been absolutely perfection with our catering orders. Could not ask for better. Quality eats at a reasonable price, and amazing service!”

“My husband and I went for jazz tonight!!! It was our first time and it was amazing! Our waitress Anna was very nice and engaged with us about what we like and suggested certain things. We tried many different drinks called Hot sauce, Chantilly, Expresso martini, dirty classic martini!! All are top notch drinks. The food was great!! We had the fried chicken and gravy, crawfish sauce croissants and fish tops with crawfish sauce on top of fries. We will be back!! This is a hidden gem. Don’t miss out! I also had a spiked ice cream yum”

“SO TASTY 😋 The space is gorgeous and open and friendly vibes all around. what a way to start my day with a great tea!”

“We stopped in on our was from Texas to Alabama. The store was great! Clean, well organized, items not found just anywhere.

I stopped specifically for the pork cracklins. While the flavor was good, not overly spiced, they were fried extra hard, to the point I thought they would break my teeth.

I'm definitely going to give them another chance, hoping this was an unusual occurrence. I also want to try the chicken cracklins.”

“Do not sleep on this lady. Today I purchased the smoked rotel and chicken salad. I had to stop and get crackers from the store because I couldn’t wait to get home to eat it🤦🏽‍♀️ then I topped it off with the beignet trio (praline, glazed, powdered) straight pressure 😋 the praline beignet was my favorite.
