Great lunch spot for a hot plate. We went in back and picked out our plates. Ours were delicious. Other table partner had a salad ordered from menu, was good too

Lunch with my 3 kids. 4/4 empty plates! Even the picky kid liked the chicken strips! The grilled shrimp was good. The grilled chicken salad was perfect- decent amount of chicken and perfectly flavored.

my kind of place local real food I started off with the order of beignets and I ate all six of them. They were different than any others. I’ve had kind of like a croissant type dough very flaky next time I’ll order extra sugar. I’m waiting for the number for breakfast with a hamburger patty eggs over easy well-done hashbrowns biscuit and I added a little gravy for my biscuit

This place was great! We brought my mom there after going to the temple. Delicious food and fast service! Great comfort foods and enough variety for there to be something for everything. They also have delicious Cajun classics! Don’t miss this place!

Well worth the drive off the interstate! Highly recommend Dwyer’s for breakfast.

The food was good. Waitress was nice. They did mess up our orders a bit. Not the waitress, the back, but they were busy. Just forgot a few extra we added like everyones bacon. It’s a little weird that breakfast ends at 11. Then it’s plate lunches for 20mins , and then they start lunch orders. Then biscuits are amazing I do recommend. Taste homemade.

As a former resident of Lafayette who worked in downtown at the now defunct Daily Advertiser, I have a history eating at Dwyers, not to mention it has been there for little over 100 years. When I began eating at Dwyer’s, it was just counter service – not the larger dining areas and outdoor seating that exists now. It was pleasure to return and enjoy a #2 breakfast with grits on sleepy Monday morning.
I enjoyed walking through the entire space before finding a seat, admiring the stained glass windows, ceiling fans, red brick walls, wood floors and of course, the wall of history, which took me back to a time before I discovered it.
This morning I chose to dine on patio, where I enjoyed people watching and friendly passersby of regulars as I waited for my breakfast. My server was very efficient and friendly, addressing me with various endearments that were welcome. I ate my breakfast slowly, savoring every bit of my grits, eggs, iced coffee and butter drenched biscuit. it was quite filling, and I was unable to finish it all but it was nice contrast to another breakfast restaurant down the street, serving bite sized plates for more money.
Yes indeed, I do enjoy enjoy tradition and a hearty meal at a landmark of Lafayette. My family has tradition of eating here, and I shared few meals with my brother, who was a regular; he recently died and was the purpose of my visit to Lafayette. I thought of our times there, and thought of how fitting it was to enjoy one more good meal at Dwyer’s.
I look forward to returning here when I visit my sister later this year. And recommend it to anyone who wants good meal for fair price.

What a great example of southern hospitality. We stopped in for lunch and chose cafeteria style. We waited about 5 minutes in a short line and could choose between 3 or 4 main courses and a handful of side dishes. I chose to meatballs over rice (I chose brown rice) and the wife chose the smothered steak. Our waitress took care of our drinks and checked on us regularly. By the way, this is where cops eat, which only confirmed my opinion.
