Broussard
Broussard is in the heart of Cajun Country, as evidenced by the 14 percent of residents who still speak French. There’s also its claim to original Cajun ancestry.
Things to Do
The city is home to at least 15 turn-of-the-century Queen Anne Revival residences, all within blocks of the Broussard house. After you check out downtown Broussard, be sure to stop by the Zoo of Acadiana: Zoosiana as well as Parish Brewing Company, which offers free brewery tours on Saturday afternoons.
Places to Stay
Consider staying at the Carriage House Hotel, a luxury hotel experience in nearby Lafayette.
Food
Grab a bite at Creole Lunch House, a drink at Wildcat Brothers Distilling and a little of each with Cajun Food Tours.
Getting There
It's easy to navigate Broussard — especially since the city is just half an hour from Lafayette. If you're flying into town, rent a car, hail a taxi or book a rideshare from the Lafayette Regional Airport.
