Coffee Shops in Acadia and St. Landry Parish to Get Your Java Fix

Skip the chains and support local coffee shops with great-tasting home-roasted brews!

By Courtney Jennings, Publisher Acadia-St. Landry August 25, 2021

There is something that is just so inviting about coffee shops. They offer the perfect atmosphere for socializing with friends or collaborating with co-workers. Most, if not all, generally offer free Wi-Fi as well so you can sip your favorite cup of joe while tackling emails or catching up on school work. Popular chains get a lot of hype, but many of your favorites and specialties at these local cafes will really mocha your day!!
