Breaux-Bridge is a town located in St. Martin Parish in south-central Louisiana. It is known as the "Crawfish Capital of the World." The population as of the 2000 census was 7,281 residents. Breaux Bridge is also considered the "gateway to authentic Cajun culture" in south Louisiana. It's a picturesque town filled with history, music and fantastic Creole and Cajun cuisine. Restaurants in the area were the first to offer crawfish openly on their menus and the Crawfish etouffee was invented in the town of Breaux Bridge. Other specialties include gateau syrup cakes, sweet dough pies and bread puddings, and other masterpieces unique to the area. The town has a quaint downtown and is filled with art galleries, shops and cafes. The architecture of the town is beautiful and guided tours for groups of ten or more are available, or you can feel free to take a walking tour of the town on your own. Information can be found at the Visitor's Center located on Bridge Street. Breaux Bridge is host to an annual Crawfish Festival, which is recognized as one of the state's finest festivals.
