Looking for a place to watch the World Cup games coming up. I lived in BR before and was able to go to the Londoner, but since moving, I haven't found any place here similar. TIA

I'm about 98% sure that there is not one in the city because I would have sniffed it out by now.

I don't think the laws allow bars to serve drunks that early in the morning

Stupid, drunks should be able to congregate at any time they want.

Its not exactly english, but I would guess the Tap House, or whatever its called, would accomodate the soccer crowd

meh. tap room doesn't do well with any sporting events. mostly because the general crowd that frequents there isn't really that into sports. It's the best bet in lafayette outside of parish taproom (in broussard), but that's not really saying much.

I just thought of Bob's Pub also, but it's a shite hole. I doubt I'll ever go there again.

Pretty sure the "closing laws" only prohibit sales between 2am and 6am. The remnants of the asinine "blue laws" may still prohibit sales on a Sunday before a certain time but I would hope Lafayette has crawled out from under that rock....Even BR has.

Places to watch World Cup in Lafayette (I.e. places I will be going):
1.) Urbanos Taqueria - Good Tacos, decent drinks, all games aired I think. They also have an Xbox set up at times that they were playing Fifa on the last few weeks. Hot girls from what I remember.
2.) Tap Room - Only because of their beer selection. And new Haut Dog menu.
3.) Dix - Don't know for sure how many games will be aired, but they are usually really good at showing events like this. Good food, decent drinks. Usually hot girls.
4.) My House - Best beer selection in Lafayette area and I can watch in my underwear.

I'm sure there are other places too though
