Another local favorite. It may take a bit to get your burger or bbq, but it’s with the wait!

I’ve been told it’s great for breakfast/brunch. But make reservations as the wait time can be long.

THE “Chicken on a Stick” gas station. It’s a staple for late night food. If you tell people you’ve gone to Oxford, often times you will be asked if you went to the chicken on a stick store. Make sure you are able to say “yes!”

Eat or we both starve if the motto of this historic dry goods store. Some of the best catfish you’ll eat. Google this place to learn it’s history. It’s an experience to go here! But call for reservations or wait time. It’s popular and byob/brown bag. This is in Taylor, MS which is at the end of the road the condo is on!

If you have a hankering for some of the best shrimp or crawfish (in season), take the 25 minute drive to the Crawdad Hole in Water Valley. The atmosphere is classic Mississippi. Imagine a screen porch (or indoors if it’s hot), cold beer, eclectic southern decor and blues playing in the background. Don’t let the exterior fool you. People come from all around to eat here!
Crawdad Hole Jr.

Visit William Faulkner’s grave and leave a little bottle of whiskey for him. Oxford Memorial Cemetery. From Courthouse Square go north on N. Lamar Blvd. Turn east on Jefferson Ave. Turn north on N. 16th St. The cemetery will be on your right. Stay on N. 16th Street, however, as the grave is at the bottom of the hill on N.16th St, just east of the historical marker. Admission: Free
