Featuring live jazz and blues each weekend and the popular Comedy Caravan every Tuesday (shows start at 10pm), this rustic tavern began pouring drinks way back in 1835, making it one of the state's oldest-operating watering holes. Friendly patrons and a personable staff make the place a long-standing favorite with Lafayette newcomers, and turn-back-the-clock highlights include a '50s-era...
