This is a great family-owned local cafe on La Fiesta Square, only a few yards from that other Lafayette staple, Chow. They have an outstanding selection of teas (black, green, herbal, decaffeinated) -- including teas most people have never heard of (e.g., Keemun tea), excellent espresso drinks, pastries, bagels, etc. What makes it special (besides the tea/espresso/etc.) is the family who run the place, the rotating art exhibits, and the local feel. Papillon attracts people of all ages from young mothers with babies to retirees (and everyone in between). Some people come to work on their laptops but a surprising number are there to hang out with their friends and actually talk. There are a few tables outside. Free wifi. My only complaint is that they arent open late, but I suppose they deserve to have a life outside of work. Wonderful place. I wish we had more like this.

Local coffee shop dead center in Lafayette. The tables are spread out so its not ideal for huge groups but the serve better scones and muffins than Starbucks. The coffee is okay. It can be busy on weekends especially with bikes and walking groups. Sometimes theres a line which takes forever when theres only 4 people in front of you just ordering coffee. Parking is NOT free but if you get there and leave by 10am, you wont have to pay. Otherwise, you get the privilege of paying. I dont put that on the business though. It appears to be a private lot and all surrounding businesses are affected. That being said, youll always be able to park and its not super expensive to do so. Its a local favorite and a good place to meet.

The best place in Lafayette for a latte or mocha! Always served with a smile by a caring and thoughtful barista! Features art work of local artists! Our favorite place for coffee and visiting with friends!

Cool nieghborhood spot without the corporate energy that is surrounding it. Nice tea selection, good regular cup of coffee, strong internet. As a traveler that avoids chains, this is a nice find.

Nice. Would be better if theyd put out milk and cream for customers instead of guarding it behind the counter.

Love coming here on a Sunday morning, sitting outside as watching the people go by.
