Ruby Slipper, a New Orleans-based brunch concept is coming soon to 4701 Ambassador Caffery in Lafayette. The restaurant is taking the place where the previously announced Denny’s was planned to go.
We announced that Denny’s would no longer be opening in Lafayette back in March of this year.

Ruby Slipper, known for its vibrant brunch, has grown across several southern cities including Metairie and Baton Rouge along with locations in Alabama, Florida, South Carolina, North Carolina, and Tennessee.
The Lafayette location of Ruby Slipper will be about 4,000 square feet and will feature a new 1,300-square-foot outdoor covered patio to be constructed.
The Ruby Slipper menu offers a vibrant and diverse selection of Southern-inspired brunch dishes including signature scratch-made biscuits, french toast bites, and pig candy bacon bites. Their specialties include Biscuits & Gravy and Shrimp & Grits, while pancakes, Benedicts, and omelets provide classic brunch options with unique twists. For those who prefer a sweeter option, the menu features dishes like bananas foster french toast, and white chocolate bread pudding pancakes. The experience is complemented by a selection of bright cocktails, including Ruby Mimosas and their award-winning Bloody Marys.

Further details are limited as we patiently wait for more details. However, this is the gist.
One thing is for sure, the brunch scene in Lafayette Parish is booming with companies like Parish Biscuit Co. (https://www.parishbiscuit.co) in the Oil Center, the beloved Another Broken Egg, Downtown Lafayette staples like The French Press & Brown Skillet, Youngsville’s KK’s Cafe, the recently opened SoLou, and the coming soon spots like Toasted Yoke and Ruby Slipper. There are so many options and they are ALL BUSY!
