Really cool, retro spot. Had my first slug burger! Food, service, and milk shake were all on point! Much enjoyed!

This was our first visit and the parking, oh my goodness, I didn't realize how tight the streets were. It was a little nerve racking. But, once inside, it was like a step back in time. The burger that I had was delicious! My fries were a little over cooked but it ok. This time. I'll definitely be going back. Try it out for yourself.....

After being recommended to stop here, I made plans accordingly. To my understanding, this is the oldest drug store in the state of Mississippi. I arrived on the square, and was shocked at the traffic surrounding this side of the square. It was a Friday morning, but it was bustling. All of the tables & booths were full, so I sat at the bar area. I was immediately welcomed and given recommendations. The waitresses (forgot her name) was super friendly and informative. She told me the history of the establishment and about the infamous “putt putt”. It was a unique experience to watch the drinks be made from the way they used to in the past. Each and every employee looked cheerful and content. They all had smiles on their faces, which is refreshing to see in today’s world. I opted for the cherry phosphate and original Coca Cola. They were wonderful. I also ordered some of their pimento cheese and was highly impressed! Each and everyone who comes through Corinth needs to stop here and enjoy the atmosphere, customer service and just the unique experience in and of itself. ( after checking out, I struck up another conversation and totally forgot to leave a tip. I realize this after I had left the city. If the owner is reading this, please give me a Venmo, PayPal or cash app I can send a tip to )
