Never wavering from the original menu, the iconic eatery has been serving up the same mouthwatering fare throughout its entire existence. And after one bite, the reason the restaurant has never changed its recipes becomes clear – every item on the menu is already perfect. From authentic country breakfasts to delicious burgers, Abe’s Grill is a must visit. Take a look:

In business for over 4 decades, Abe’s Grill is much more than a restaurant – it’s a local institution.

It was first opened in the 1970s, making it the oldest restaurant on Highway 72 in Mississippi, but that’s not its only claim to fame.

In addition to being located on a Civil War landmark, it’s also home to award-winning burgers and the "mid-south's favorite homemade biscuit."

From the moment you arrive at Abe’s, which is constructed of a mixture of signs, placards, and a variety of other items, it’s clear you’re in for a real treat.

The iconic eatery is open Monday through Friday for breakfast and lunch. The early morning fare is served each day from 5 am until they "run out" - or about 10:30 am.

Get there early and you won’t be disappointed. In addition to fluffy homemade biscuits, the authentic country breakfast also includes favorites, like sawmill gravy, chocolate gravy, country ham, and more.

Can’t make it to Abe’s in time for breakfast? Don’t worry; you’re sure to be just as impressed with the lunch menu.

Though not huge, the menu is filled with a bevy of mouthwatering burgers and sandwiches, like the Ribeye Sandwich. The tasty creation has been a lunchtime favorite for years.

The Big Abe is another popular item. Made with 100% ground beef, which is ground fresh daily, the juicy burger has won countless awards.

Of course, no matter what you order, it’ll come with a side of Abe’s famous hand-cut Idaho fries topped with the eatery’s signature seasoning.

Wash it all done with a nice cold glass of sweet tea, which comes served in a frosted mason jar – could it get any better?!

After finishing your meal, spend some time looking around. Be sure to check out the wall of fame, where you’ll find photos of Abe’s famous patrons.
