This Ramshackle Burger Shack Hiding In Mississippi Serves The Best Hamburgers Around

Some of the best places in Mississippi are also the most hidden, and that’s exactly the case with Junk Yard Burgers. The tiny burger shack is tucked away in an even tinier town, so most people have no idea it even exists. However, those that do know about it, all say the same thing – the burgers can’t be beat! Take a look:

Great restaurants and small town Mississippi go hand-in-hand, so it should come as no surprise that Junk Yard Burgers is located in the tiny town of Gunpoint.

Between its small town locale and the fact that it’s basically housed in a shack, Junk Yard Burgers is easy to pass by, but you definitely don’t want to do that…

…and that’s because it serves up some of the best burgers in all of Mississippi.

In addition to incredible, made-to-order burgers, the menu features other tasty options, like rib-eye sandwiches, dough burgers, milkshakes, and other goodies.

Remember, Junk Yard Burgers is a no-frills kind of place, so orders are placed at the walk-up window.

Also, there’s no indoor seating. But there are a few seats on the front porch as well as an outdoor dining area.

Don't forget to stop by the ATM prior to your visit - Junk Yard Burgers accepts cash only.

For more information, call (662) 348-3425. You can also visit the eatery’s Facebook page.

Address: 1393 N Main Street, Guntown, MS, 38849

This isn’t the only tiny eatery that serves out-of-this-world burgers. Read about another here.
