Originally a 1920s gas station, the Blue and White Restaurant is a favorite of visitors and locals in Tunica, Mississippi looking for a hearty meal. Many of the employees have been with the restaurant for decades and work alongside family members. The menu has also remained relatively unchanged in the last 40 years. The Blue and White also has regulars who dine daily.

Classic Southern fare is what you can find on the menu with all the staples like biscuits and gravy and fried chicken. Delta tamales are also included. The restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. But be warned, smoking is allowed inside, so you may want to keep that in mind if you’re sensitive to it.
