We were blown away by the flavour of the gelato, especially the lemon and the mint. The manager told us about the mayor donating a huge amount of lemons that she had used for the lemon gelato. The prices were a little high, but not higher than usual for gelato, and the quality was worth it. A nice little extra:... More

My partner is a self-declared coffee snob, so arriving here from Texas after a week on the road was like arriving at the Emerald City. The service was great, the staff were helpful with advice about things to do locally, and the barista was truly committed to his craft. We thoroughly recommend this place.

When your downtown don't miss out on this great little coffee shop. The gelato is superb and they have many flavors to choose from. I love the hazelnut. Starts at $3.60 a cup. Also delightful pastries to please the palate.(Cannoli,etc) Small place. Seating is limited to a few tables inside (5 I think) plus some outdoor seating (2-3 tables maybe).WiFi.... More

This little coffee shop in central Lafayette does surprisingly good coffee. There is wifi and the staff are pleasant and helpful.

Really enjoyed this place. It's always crowded when we go but I can see why. Service is mediocre....it's hit or miss and sometimes they aren't friendly especially when we ask questions about the gelato, but we go for the dessert not service anyhow. Overall awesome place!

Tasty and very good location which brings life to the old downtown area. After having had gelato in several Italian cities and other parts of Europe this place is good but still has some work to do.

Lived the gelato. It was very creamy and hit the spot on a hot day.

Love this place!! Located in downtown Lafayette on a quaint corner, Carpe Diem is our new hot spot for a delicious treat after dinner or whenever we have a sweet-tooth craving for delicious gelato. Kid-friendly atmosphere. Flavors are delicious!! Highly recommend.

Love the gelato from this little bar. Great meeting place
