Let me get this straight: Cabela's has a four star average but Bass Pro has only three? I suppose I'm not their demographic as I don't hunt nor fish nor even (gasp) camp. And pink camo isn't my style. But they do have an aquarium. I bought my boat at Bass Pro and Cabela's has a fraction of the boating selection, so there's that. Also, this is going to sound weird, but the ambiance at Bass Pro is dark lodge with an actual cabin and pond with fish in the middle of the store, while Cabela's has bright florescent lighting and an enormous regionally inappropriate mountain scene with giant taxidermied elk, deer and... a polar bear. Huh? My husband drags me in here. read more

So many offerings at Cabela's such a huge variety of fish hunt apparel every day wear work jeans play clothes The staff always so helpful and courteous. Their sales are really awesome. Unfortunately their regular prices are a touch higher than I'm comfortable with, but they run great sales, and the store itself is quite entertaining. Great location. read more

Place was lit and a bunch of free activities( aquarium n wildlife exhibits) to visit!!!!

If Louisiana is considered the Sportsman's Paradise, then Cabela's should be the official store of choice for outdoor activities, as they seem to carry everything under the sun. As soon as you enter the parking lot, you kind of get an idea as to just how massive this place is. When you walk through the front door for the very first time, I guarantee you'll experience some sort of sensory overload; and I mean this in a very good way. Your eyes are immediately drawn to the back of the store where there is a humongous North American big game display that looks like a rocky outcrop which features stuffed animals that would rival any museum. Above and behind the display is a suspended airplane (Piper Cub perhaps) that makes the scene look lifelike. There is a huge glass enclosed gun display that is manned by several sales representatives that are happy to show you anything. They have everything from derringers to .500 Smith & Wesson magnums. If you are looking for a pocket pistol, they'll even let you place the gun in your pocket to see how it feels/ and or imprints. The sales reps are very friendly and very regimented in their handling of the weapons, especially ensuring that the weapon is unloaded and the slide is locked back before they hand it to you. I also like the large "Gun Library" as they feature many used firearms and historical pieces too. If you are an outdoors-man, then you need to check this place out. However, if you are outdoors-man, you probably already have. read more

Something for everyone here. I mostly go because my husband shops here. He loves to look at the guns. They do have a good selection of guns and gun parts. He has gotten some good knives too. The clothing is a bit expensive, but it's very good quality, so you get what you pay for. We got a rain jacket a few years ago for my husband, and it's holding up really well. I love that they have a little aquarium in the store. I walk through it every time I'm here now. The big mountain display in the back is cool too! read more

I tried y'all, I really did. I wanted to hate this (guy) place but it's impossible. This place has something for everyone and that was apparent to me as soon as I was walking in. Hello pastel colored canoes...way to appeal to the females Cabela's. Yes, there are knives and guns galore here and of course I was made to endure these by my guy BUT there's also: -cute baby clothes -cuter women's clothes -aquariums!! -awesome home decor -stuffed animals beaucoup We spent hours wandering around here taking in the two stories of awesomeness. There's a place to grab lunch on the second floor and a pretty great fudge shop up there as well. (I recommend the snickers fudge) Oh and in the fudge shop don't miss out on the large selection of Burt's Bees products. If your guy makes you come here you might just like it as much as he does. read more

We went shopping here to buy a tackle box. We found exactly what we were looking for and the clerk was very helpful. The reason I only gave them 3 stars is because only 50% of the shoppers were wearing masks and the staff did not care. I asked the lady at the front of the store in light of the fact that they had a poster on their front doors stating that everybody had to wear a mask. She stated that they are supposed to enforce the mask mandate, but the "owner's don't want a problem with any of their customers", so they were not enforcing this. read more

Nice and relaxing atmosphere. Didn't find anything that I couldn't live without but enjoyed the peaceful tire kicking walk around. read more

This store is a outdoorsman's dream. They have everything you would want or need to go Camping, fishing, hunting, and boating. The prices are a bit higher than most sporting good stores. The interior is amazing with life size deer, moose, and various other animals adorning the store. Upstairs is a good grill restaurant and a small country store type shop with fudge and sweets. There is a really neat aquarium with huge indigenous fish and turtles. It's great for kids. I would recommend stopping in just to experience the sights in the store. read more

Today I went in to Cabela's to purchase a firearm. I was browsing the case, seeing what my options were. An employee asked me if they could help me and I admittedly said yes bc idk where to start. I've never owned a fire arm and I'm not sure what I'm looking for besides something relatively small. He asked my reasoning for buying a gun & suggested me having a stalker. Why in fact, yes. I've had a restraining order on someone that I still do not feel safe from. The FIRST words out of his mouth was "well what did you do to him?". Talk about triggering (no pun intended). I said I didn't do anything to him as he tried to laugh it off like "oh well I'm js". I filled out my questionnaire and waited to hear back while being completely uncomfortable in front of this man. They told me we had to wait on the results of my background check and they'd call. Cool. I had some pepper gel in my hands and went to the checkout line. I Couldn't help but think of how many times I've allowed a man to silence my voice and I knew I had to go back to the fire arm section. I fought through a face full of tears and told him that the next time a woman comes in to buy a gun and informs you that she has a stalker or a restraining order against someone, the first thing out of his mouth should not be to ask her what she did to that man. I said I didn't do anything to him and even if I did, nothing warrants being as concerned for your safety as much as I am. And I walked out. Cabelas just called to tell me they couldn't sell me a fire arm due to how I presented myself being against company policy. I asked how and he informed me that I cursed and mistreated an employee. I was quick to inform him of the correct situation and that I did not curse at an employee but I stood up for myself when an employee asked me what I did to a man that abused me and make me feel concerned for my safety. & I hung up. If this isn't a reality check that men don't give a shit about women in danger then idk what is. Bc apparently the news of men unaliving their gfs/wives/ and children isn't enough either. The life of a woman. read more

I remember walking into this Cabela's when they first opened. Hunting and fishing are big in these parts, and I was amused as I watched my Louisiana friends walk around like children in a candy store. What I didn't tell them was that after visiting the big Cabela's store near Sidney Nebraska, I though that this one was kind of small. This Cabela's is easy to access off I-10. Just look for the Cabela's Parkway signs and the lake (and boats) next to the store. It's a nice shopping alternative to the Mall, and your kids should stay entertained while your checking out a new outdoors idea. read more

Cabela's is a sportsman's paradise. This store has everything you could possible want when it comes to the outdoors. I have been here several times, but I am always drawn to the gun section. Most of their new guns are overpriced compared to other retailers, but their section is great. Want to check out a new pistol, rifle or shotgun, come here. I really like the historical guns for sale in the room on side of the main area. There were old single action colt revolvers, German Lugers and Belgian Brownings, all of which were for sale. In addition to the gun section, the amount of ammunition in stock is incredible. Need ammo for a hard to find caliber? If they don't have it here, I would be very surprised. The staff were very friendly and attentive. They also don't seem to mind if you just browse rather than buy. In fact, the store is a huge attraction. I think most people are just there to look. read more

Cabela's is not a destination like Bass Pro. Save your time and money. I have never visited a Cabela's before. I checked out their website and it looked like they had a restaurant on premise like Bass Pro. Not so. It's more like an overpriced concession stand from the Superdome. Frozen and prepackaged food is their specialty here. My family ended up going elsewhere to eat. I found that their prices were too high on most of the items I was looking for. Ending up leaving without buying anything. I actually took pictures of the items I wanted and found them cheaper online at Bass Pro and Amazon. The clothing area offered a large selection. I can't comment on the pricing on the clothing since I didn't come here looking for that. All in all, I was pretty disappointed in Cabela's. I don't plan to come back here anytime soon unless they have a product that I can't find anywhere else. read more

I've been to many Cabela's around the country and this one is typical of most of them. Often local Cabela's stores will have a special display tailored for the area they are in and this location has a giant aquarium with many of our local freshwater fish species available for viewing. They also have multiple stuffed animals from all over the world so you can get a sense of proportion of different game animals. They have a huge inventory here and you can also order things online and pick them up here. They have a nice selection of firearms but the prices on the new stock is higher than you will usually find elsewhere. One of the best things about this store is they keep a great stock of ammo compared to the usually paltry and sold out offerings elsewhere these days. They have a small cafe here with items like elk, ostrich and bison sandwiches but really they are pretty unimpressive. They have a clearance room where you can find some good deals. This is certainly a great place to tour but the prices can often be higher for their regularly priced merchandise. They do offer top quality equipment here and the only baseball cap I wear on a regular basis is a Cabela's one. If you need expedition, hunting, fishing or outdoor outfitting then Cabela's can take care of just about any need. read more

Extremely helpful employees. Went above and beyond to help me find what I needed and even recommend other stores that may have stock. Fun store to visit. Love the louisiana swamp theme! read more

Cabelas has a large selection of goods for all of your camping, fishing, and hunting needs. The store is organized with plenty of parking. I do find Cabelas to be more expensive than other sporting goods stores. If they were more price competitive I would shop there a lot more and give them 5 stars. Example: Glock G23 Gen4 Cabelas - $629.99. Academy - $569.99 read more

Called to check availability of a firearm. Stayed on hold for 3 1/2 minutes and was disconnected . Called back, this was about the same time and was disconnected. Called the third time and reminded the young lady that this was my 3rd call and I keep getting disconnected. I asked, if it's that much trouble getting through, should I just take my business else where... her response, OK!! read more

Cabela's is a neat place to stop in if you are interested in anything "Great Outdoors". It is also a great place to stop in with the kids just so they can look around. Of course the prices are a little high, it is Cabela's after all. They have the best selection of hunting and fishing gear you are going to find in a retail store hands down. Give them a try if you are passing by. read more

Love the smell of the pecans cooking! Very helpful gentleman named Greg! This store is always clean when we come here! I enjoy the clearance section! read more

WORST SANTA IVE SEEN IN ALL OF MY YEARS!. Me and my family drove an HOUR to get a picture with Santa and not just a free one we were actually going to buy a package until this horrible experience! I wouldn't suggest going here for Santa pictures with your children. You and your children will be disappointed. He was the worst, he looked uninterested with his job. He didn't once ask the kids what they wanted for Christmas, much less speak to them, he didn't once interact with them he just sat there. The picture we received was disgusting at the fact he was basically rushing to get rid of the kids. If you are looking for a Santa that is full of joy, loves to interact with kids, and is actually a Santa then don't go here you'll really be disappointed. Here is the picture we got! read more

What an awesome store! My dad has an abnormally crazy reaction any time he gets close to the place - fishing and hunting paradise!! Hard times in the area Aug 18 2016. Cabela's stepped up and let Marathon Petroleum stage supply distribution for their employees impacted by the flood in their back parking lot. Their manager came out and checked on everyone - what a class act! Wish we had convinced Zac to buy a wide brimmed hat and some sunscreen. Thanks for the fudge! #CabelasCares #MarathonProud read more

Cabelas is a guys "toys r us"! Everything you could need for any outdoor sport. Great aquarium for the kids to check out. 5.11, underarmor gear, and of course the cabelas brand. Employees were helpful and friendly. Bathrooms were also clean, a true barometer of a well run business. read more

This place has really gone down hill. I haven't been in there since last year and they have really let it go. I went in around 6pm on a Wed evening. The store was nearly empty and it took me 30 minutes to get them to find someone who could get a pair of shoes from the warehouse for me. read more

Any place that has free kennels for your dog while u shop is good in my book...I could care less what they are selling. Its hard to find anything dog friendly in Louisiana. They also don't mind if u go in the store with ur pet as long as its on a leash. I put my dogs in a buggie and wheel them around. They love it. While the dogs and I were on our joy ride my husband sold a gun he'd been wanting to get rid of. He got a fair amount of cash and it was hassle free! read more

Customer service is great, good selections. Man who helped me and my dad pick out our kayaks was AMAZING he helped us get the right size oars and life jackets,in addition he gave us tips for picking out additional gear like add ons for fishing. read more

I LOVE Cabela's! Anything you might need for nearly any outdoor activity is available. From fishing to rock climbing and everything in between, the quality and variety of products is top notch. My only beef is that the top quality makes everything expennnnnsive. That's ok, because I know I'm getting excellent stuff, but it breaks the bank everytime! I still love this heavenly place though. read more

This is the outdoor man's version of heaven. It is the next best place to be besides outdoors. It has everything you need to go kill something. Or if you are more into being one with nature, there are also a huge selection on hiking and camping gear. read more

this place it's just money hungry not willing to stand behind any product they sell I won't being going there again I bought a faulty crossbow with a manufactured defect when to cabelas thinking they would swap it out no problem. boy was I wrong they just want your money dont waste your time just go online and buy the product you planned on buying. read more

I bought a shirt here and another not so necessity or two. The shirt is super comfy for not being a sleep shirt. The selection for things I'm not into did seem extensive. The staff working was outstanding; the interior is cute. I think that if you're weak willed when it comes to purchasing, and hunting, fishing, or nature is something you can go to town with, you may want to stay away. For me it's a great different place to see... and shop. It's time to get more private dressing rooms. There were a few people hanging out a bit close to them who may or not realize where they are carrying on their conversations, loudly. Some people just prefer to feel like they have a little a little more privacy when trying on clothes. Otherwise, it's a five star review. read more

This is a Cabela's, it has typical Cabelas features like an aquarium with native fish, some sort of center piece with animals of all shapes and size. They have guns, fishing gear, hunting supplies and camping equipement. If you need something for any of these activites with far and few exceptions and cabelas doesnt have it, you dont need it. read more

Cabela's is so much more than an outdoor gear/hobby shop- This place is truly an experience! I came knowing that they had an extensive gun and ammo collection that I would appreciate, but what I didn't know is that they carry supplies for any and every outdoor hobby you could possibly imagine- shooting, fishing, hunting, camping, boating, auto/ATV, among other hobbies (kayaking, birding, droning, metal detecting, and even rock polishing) as well as clothing, footwear, home goods/decor and don't forget the Bargain Cave! They even have a Deli and Grill so you can easily grab lunch/dinner and a cute little Fudge and Nut Shop where you can buy baked goods on the second floor. Needless to say, I spent about two hours aimlessly wandering around the store and could have easily spent more time here if I didn't have a prior obligation to attend. From the overall decor, elaborate taxidermy displays, giant aquariums and nearly endless amount of gear/supplies it's so easy to get lost in time and space inside of Cabela's that it almost seems like an alternate universe. I really appreciated the time they took to setup each taxidermy display scene to make the recreations appear as realistic as possible. The gun and ammo area is beyond extensive and it was fun to take a look at all of the guns I've been eyeing but have trouble finding in the average big box stores like Academy or Dick's. The folks who work here are extremely knowledgeable so it was also a great opportunity to get some questions that I had been pondering answered. They have a giant pond outside of the store fully stocked with fish and although I didn't have the chance to try it out at my last visit, I would love to give it a go next time around! I do wish they had an shooting range available, and they definitely have the space to add one in the future, but that is probably the only thing I could think of adding to this extremely well thought out store. They have a great selection of clothing and shoes, and a large area dedicated to pet supplies which I absolutely loved. It's hard to pick out a favorite area of the store because they're all pretty amazing. All in all I had a great time visiting Cabela's. Honestly if I lived in the Baton Rouge area I would probably be here Way more often than I should; and even though I don't I'm already looking forward to my next visit! read more

This Cabela's off of I-10 in Gonzales, LA is a wonderland of goodies for all sorts of outdoorsy people and non outdoorsy alike!

Take advantage of the knowledgeable staff and Cabela's goodies....they have fudge! read more

Stopped here on our way to NOLA from Baton Rouge. We had to stop, as it felt like Mecca itself appeared on the horizon, as we drove down I-10. Naturally, we stopped to peruse their gun selections and other outdoorsy items. The prices were what one would expect; some items really overpriced and others fairly even with other markets. It's a very nice place to go and visit to be honest--the aquarium is actually very well done, and the overall décor of the store was a bit tacky and over the top (which is clearly what they go for). A good place to visit if not for the aquarium and extensive amount of outdoor equipment and items. Worth taking a look--never know when a good price will jump out at you. read more

Trip home from NOLA- Huge, clean store. Employee's were plentiful and greeted us and everyone with a smile. They were pretty helpful as well. The selection is huge.We purchased a gift and some smaller items. As I said, the store was clean. People milling around and I did not see one piece of merchandise on the floor or out of place. Not many places can say that. I'll be back. read more

Of course my husband loves Cabelas for the hunting accessories, my children love cabelas for the animal and fish exhibits, myself I love my family so I enter the store knowing it will be hours before I exit again. This cabelas from the road doesn't seem very special, which is sad because inside is very nice and entertaining apparently. We some how just spent 5hrs there and spent less then $500!!!! My husband found associates that knew there info and talked the fist hour away, while the kids and I visited the main mountain animal exhibit in the center of the store, then visited the fish aquarium which is about 25,000 gallons all together (very nice!) The kids and I decided to wander upstairs and have lunch at the cafe, on our way we ran into my husband...still talking about hunting stuff... Informed him we were heading for food. We ordered a nice meal of burgers, hotdogs and sandwiches which all come with fries and a drink. It took about 15 minutes for our food to be prepared, $43 for a family of 5. That included a $12 Buffalo meat burger for the hubs (who was still downstairs talking.) Once we were finished we were all back together and the husband took the kids for a bit so I could wander. I'm not a talker so I went straight to business... The fudge shop upstairs!! Yum We met back up in the Back Country museum in the back corner and read up on monster A-Typical deer. Two recommendations for Cabelas... 1) by the hour daycare center!!!!! I would totally pay you $10 a kid for an hour of no questions asked shopping!!! 2) a spouse napping station or massage chair station!!!! I mean I just spent 5 hrs on my feet in your store, I need rewarded!!! read more
