For More Than Half A Century, Dining At The Hollywood Cafe In Mississippi Is Always A Timeless Experience

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!

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.
Low-key, casual, and family-friendly, The Hollywood Cafe checks off all the boxes.
