This two story establishment features a full bar and an open kitchen area. It gets quite busy here and for good reason. We were seated upstairs and were treated to some excellent service. We went with the butcher picnic special, which had some chicken, sausage, and brisket - all cooked in tin foil on an open flame. Served with roasted vegetables and a bell pepper medley that was amazing. Very nice meal!

Sweet Tea & Biscuits is the epitome of southern cuisine. Our recipes are depression era home made food that features homemade casseroles, sweet treats with seven minute icing and mile high meringue.

My mom and I stopped here for lunch before heading onto Memphis Tn and so glad we did. Iâm also glad we had GPS because itâs hard to spot from the HWY. Theyâre located in the back of Joyful Creations Gifts & Antiques which we enjoyed strolling their booths after we ate.2025 McCullough Blvd Tupelo Ms.The food was delicious and just the right amount of seasoning. We had one of their specials of the day and split a sandwich. Bacon and tomato quiche and pimento cheese sandwich. The purple hull peas were amazing along with the cornbread. Of course we had sweet tea and biscuits. Great casual atmosphere with miss matched chairs and locals sitting nearby playing cards.Thank you for this review. Weâre thrilled that you enjoyed your visit. Please come see us again very soon. Thanks again,Beverly

Went here on a Sunday after church and it was a good experience. Atmosphere - hip and up beat. Looks like some old garage with big roll up doors and cool metal and hardwood seating. I liked it the second I rolled into the place.Service - Donât remember the name of our server, but he was on top of it. Tall dude that went out of his way to make sure you had what you needed. He smiled the entire time. It made the experience that much betterQuality / Taste - Got the Asian chicken salad with chicken salad sandwich. Both were super good and would highly recommend. Cost - Spent $36 for 5 meals and tip. I thought is was reasonable for what you got.Only advice is to steer clear of the outer seating. It was so friggen cold!!!!Give it a shot!So glad you had a great experience. We strive to leave everyone with an experience that they will remember. I am so glad to hear we did in your case. We hope to see you again soon. Thank you for all your comments.Sherri, Catering Manager
4. Weezie's Deli and Gifts
Reviewed By ChristopherP307
One of the best lunch spots in town. Something on the menu to satisfy everyone. Only open 11-2:00, Monday through Friday at the time of this review. Consistently great food, atmosphere and service. Great ambiance with low lighting, very peaceful, usually soft jazz heard overhead, and an occasional live pianist. During Christmas season, there was Christmas music playing, and complimentary hot cider and pumpkin pie delivered right to the table. It really doesnât get much better. Thereâs also a gift shop area and work from local artists to browse while you wait. Be sure to get there early, as they occasionally run out of your favorite side item, which is not uncommon for a busy place this popular.
5. Firehouse Subs
Reviewed By iTraveltheworld195
Came here for lunch on the Sunday of Mother's Day and the place was packed! I think we arrived at just the wrong time because there was quite a long line.I had the Smokehouse beef and cheddar brisket sub. Wish that I had put mushrooms on it. The sandwich itself was a little skimpy on filling but had really good flavor and I love the Sweet Baby Rays BBQ sauce on it!Biggest complaint was that there was no lemonade available in the machine, diet or otherwise. I have recently given up diet beverages and have taken to making Arnold Palmers instead to cut down on the sugar (using unsweetened iced tea) but had to go with sweet tea here instead. Way too much sugar for me, left me feeling yucky all afternoon!
