    You can't go wrong with anything. Jim's cafe has been in business for 90 years and everything on the menu is homemade.

    Best sign ever.

    Jim's is the quintessential small town diner, a perfect fit for a trip through the Mississippi Delta. It looks like nothing's changed in fifty years, right down to the male hen party at the big table in the back, and I don't have a problem with that. We got scrambled eggs, bacon, hash browns, grits, and biscuits and gravy. The only thing that wasn't top notch was the gravy, which was on the thin side and tasted more like milk than sausage drippings. But the biscuits are obviously home made, and the hash browns are really crispy and delicious. I asked for hot sauce, and the waitress asked "Do you want bottled or my own?" "Oh, yours" I answered, and boy was I glad! It's thicker than bottled sauce, a little smoky, a little sweet, and I walked out with a big bottle, adorably packaged in a repurposed wine bottle, of my own. I read in a review that they make their own jam, too, and I was kicking myself for not asking for some. I think our waitress was also an owner; she was very sweet and delighted we liked her sauce so much. Eating here is like stepping back to a simpler time, and I will definitely return when my KC-to-New Orleans trips take me through Greenville.

    Made a wrong turn and spotted this Cafe . I love hamburgers and have tried them all over the southern U.S. and they have the best hamburger I've ever eaten ! I highly recommend this place ! Go talk to the Burger King and tell him you want a dirty burger! You want be sorry!

    Located by the Mississippi River in the cute historic district - this is a must see restaurant. Full of photos of movie stars and memorabilia. Their food is really good too. Ask for the homemade salsa and homemade jam. Made from fresh local produce.

    Bacon!

    When I asked for the best breakfast place in town to two locals they both immediately said Jim's Cafe. Places like this are what makes the Mississippi Delta a destination location to see and eat. Greenville is just a shadow of what it once was. Businesses and people come and go Jim's Cafe weathered the storm. I had bacon biscuits and they were awesome. Handmade biscuits with crispy bacon. One more superb spot. Head to Greenville. See and eat Mississippi.

I also had a fresh, fluffy baked potato. Mike had the fat boy burger. It was really good . It has a unique sauce that I had no issue with, but Mike was not a fan of. Great bun and fresh toppings. Hand pattied meat. The onion rings are hand battered flour based and are to die for. The homemade salad dressings are delicious The service was amazing. The woman who took our order cares so much about your food and experience that you would think she owns it. The young lady with her was so bubbly and talkative. An all around great experience. You have to try it!

The staff here are adamant about when busy, not allowing patrons to save tables as they walk in the door. That way those ordering first have a seat choice first. I like that. But I also like the burgers and roast beef po-boys. I have yet to find something on the menu that's just mediocre.

I forgot to ask for jalapeños after my sandwich was wrapped and it was no problem to go back and add it. Sometimes employees get a bad attitude when customers make changes. Thank you ladies for your patience. Mrs. Tracy, continue to lead your team in positive directions.

I mean nobody goes out of their way here as far as being friendly or service. I just came here because I know I can eat here at a reasonable price and I get in and out of here easily. One thing to mention is that their bathrooms need remodeling or renovated. Old dilapidated sink and stained floors and walls need painted too. However, if you just want a value priced meal for about $5 or $6, come here. It's located off of Highway 82 just east of the Intersections of Highway 82 and Highway 1. One tip is that You can actually drive around the building and then park to where the entrance is just to your left. The parking spaces are bigger and it will make leaving easier. Menu items: We came here as a party of 3. Two of us got the Black Forest ham sandwich special for $4.99. It comes with chips and a drink. Your drinks are self serve and refills are free.
