These days, for a restaurant to make it past a year or two, is special in its own right, but when a restaurant can claim a few decades, that pretty much guarantees you’re in for a special treat. This historic restaurant in Mississippi has been a timeless treasure for more than half a century, and you’re in for a memorable meal when you stop by.
From the outside, the Hollywood Cafe doesn't look like much...but don't ever judge a book by its cover!
For starters, anytime there's a formal plaque in front of a restaurant, you know you're in for something good.
Up in the very northwest corner of the Magnolia State, The Hollywood Cafe is an important stop for hungry souls making their way along the Mississippi Blues Trail.
The tiny but mighty town is home to about 2,000 folks, but since Tunica Resorts is the third-largest casino-gambling destination in the country, it seems much larger than it is. While we’re on the subject, you may see the town referred to as Robinsonville, which is what the town was called until 2005.
