Lafayette has quite a few choices of restaurants open Christmas Day. My family has a tradition of eating Chinese food on Christmas Day like in the movie "A Christmas Story". Back when we started, there weren't very many restaurants open on Christmas Day so we would just drive around until we found one. To save you the time, here is a list of restaurants open in Lafayette on Christmas Day.

You'll be able to find everything from pancakes, to Indian food, to steaks and more. If you know of more restaurants that will be open, please let us know.
