Editor’s Note: Oak Leaf General Store has closed. For another fun destination, visit this epic general store in Mississippi. 

General stores in Mississippi often double as great restaurants. In the past, we’ve told you about a few such stores, including H.D. Gibbes and Sons. Despite its small town locale, the historic shop is famous for its steaks and seafood. It’s not the only middle-of-nowhere general store that’s found success as a restaurant, though. Oak Leaf General Store is another. And just like its predecessor, it boasts a unique setting and fantastic fare.

Oak Leaf General Store is tucked away in Ellisville, a tiny town of just a few thousand.
