Billy's Boudin & Cracklins - Opelousas American • $
904 Short Vine St, Opelousas

“We were traveling thru and I read about boudin and more importantly how Billy’s was fantastic. We never had boudin as we’re from the north! I will say Billy’s is a must stop even if not staying in the area. We brought a bunch home. Used the leftover crawfish boudin from the night before with scrambled eggs the next morning! It’s my new favorite breakfast item now!“

“First time visiting today, 7/10/23 and so glad we did! I had the Tony Chachere on Focaccia an d my sister hand the Marilyn Monroe. We both loved them! I’ve never had Focaccia bread so soft and delicious before. It was very hard to choose from all the wonderful sandwiches and I’d definitely go back again next time I come back home to Louisiana for visit.“

“I like the store but my friend was behind someone at the food counter and they served them but didn't come help my friend. It's like they just were to busy to help. We were only ones in the business n there were 2 people standing behind the counter doing absolutely nothing. I won't even stop at that Go Bears again. I might stop at the one across the street like I usually do, maybe! ?“
