The only better than finding a great dining spot, is finding a great dining spot with really low prices. And that’s just what you’ll get at Dairy Kream. Throughout the years, not much has changed at the decades old dairy bar – and that includes the prices. Keep reading to learn about the longtime favorite.
This is Dairy Kream. Located in Tupelo, it’s open Sunday - Thursday from 10 a.m. – 10 p.m. and Friday – Saturday from 9 a.m. – 11 p.m.
You’ll find it at 796 E Main St., Tupelo, MS 38804.
It’s exactly the type of place you’d picture when thinking of an old fashioned dairy bar - and that’s no coincidence. Opened in 1955, it’s as authentic as they come.
Old fashioned in more ways than one, Dairy Kream is a "cash only" type of place, so don’t forget to stop by the ATM on before your visit.

Much more than a local favorite, the eatery – and its tasty fare of sweets and fast food eats - have consistently received rave reviews on websites, such as Trip Advisor.
But it’s not just the food that’s raved about. Dairy Kream’s old fashioned prices are mentioned repeatedly. And with 70-cent ice cream cones, it’s no surprise customers are impressed!
Just like the dairy bars of the past, Dairy Kream features a walk-up window and no indoor seating. There’s plenty of outdoor seating, though, so (luckily) you won’t have to wait to dig in.
Dairy Kream is located at 796 E Main St., Tupelo, MS 38804. For more information, call (662) 842-7838 or visit the eatery’s (unofficial) Facebook page.
