Welcome to Back in Time, a charming little restaurant nestled in downtown Opelousas.

It may not look like much from the outside, but inside, well, there’s a lot to look at. You could spend hours just gazing at all of the memorabilia on the walls from years past.

Grab yourself a table and check out the menu. This little cafe may not be very big, but what it lacks in size, it makes up for in bold flavors.

This quirky little cafe has meals that are home-cooked, local creations that make for the perfect lunch.

All of their dishes are named after a famous person of event from the ’20s, ’30s and ’40s, adding a fun little twist to your experience.

What you *won’t* find is any traditional Creole cuisine. Rather, when you dine at Back in Time, you’re getting wholesome, comforting food made from scratch. It really feels like you’re dining at grandma’s place.

And, of course, you'll want to peep the desserts. The perfect ending to a delicious meal!

Back in Time is open for lunch six days a week.
