Louisiana is known for many great foods, but fried chicken isn’t one of first that comes to mind. But that doesn’t mean we don’t have some truly delicious, finger-licking-good fried chicken joints peppered throughout Louisiana, and some of the best places to get fried chicken are in unlikely spots. Poche’s may be known for incredible Cajun and Creole cuisine, but the fried chicken is the most underrated thing in the menu, and it’s some of the best fried chicken in town!
Poche’s has been a favorite for locals since it opened back in 1962.

The restaurant has been a tradition for generations of families in Cajun Country. The no-frills dining room is a cafeteria-style, and it can get pretty crowded at peak times, so be prepared!
