    Sweet potato fries are amazing. The food is good. The view is good. The service is great. One scoop of ice cream is huge. We shall definitely return.

    I enjoy going here for hots, burgers, fries. Haven't had anything I disliked. Fenced in play area for kids. Very friendly staff. Will be back many more times this season.

    Haven't been here in a while so it was nice to stop here while the weather is still good. Love the calming view of the water (no pics of that today). I ordered a bacon cheese hot dog & sweet potato fries. The fries were absolutely yummy! I'm a big hot dog fan but don't think I'll order this particular one again. I expected it to be wrapped in bacon but it seemed like bacon bits, unless it was just cooked so crisp that it crumbled. Either way, I think I'd prefer the dog without it. My friends ordered grilled chicken sandwiches which they seemed to enjoy. My husband got a sausage with peppers and onions and a strawberry shake. Overall good meal. 2025-76

    We ordered the vegan chicken sandwich, cheeseburger, and two vegan burgers with French fries everything was fresh and hot to order. The French fries were crispy and hot. That's the perfect way to eat fries. We also ordered two chocolate milkshakes. They were cold, thick and full of chocolate flavor. One of my favs for sure. The service was quick and very kind. I thoroughly enjoyed the ambiance of the restaurant. Not too bright with mostly natural lighting.

    Got a sundae with hot fudge and peanut butter and was very excited until I got to the custard/ice cream. It had no flavor. It tasted like heavy cream. Not vanilla. I didn't want to make a stink about it so I just threw the sundae away as it was not what I wanted nor expected. The service was good and the girl took my order with a smile and it was ready right away. It was busy and lines moved quickly. The place looked nice with the signage lit up. I'll be back but for something else. Maybe a shake

    Cheese and bacon fries

    We visited on a week night in September and they were not very busy at the time. I ordered the caesar chicken sandwich which I have enjoyed several times. My wife and I shared the cheese and bacon fries which were suitably smothered, and were plenty for us both. The prices are somewhat high, but you do have a nice view of the river. We come by here at least once every summer.

    Fish sandwich with cheese
    Norma P.

    Stopped by for dinner with my husband. I ordered the fish sandwich and shared a fries with cheese and bacon with my husband. The fish sandwich was delicious but $1.60 for cheese was too much. The fries were delicious and had a lot of cheese and bacon . Overall the food was very good but expect to pay a lot...prices are high!!! We try to go at least once every summer...the location is great being right by the water!!!.

    A Mighty Mudd Burger and Memphis Fries, please :). The food and location, which is right next to Niawanda Park in Tonawanda, is an ideal combination. It's summer and if you want something simple, satisfying and fun, this is the destination. Walking along the Niagara River is an enjoyable and relaxing activity. This is the main reason to be there, so you shouldn't skip it. Everyone who works at Mississippi Mudds is always very polite and helpful. This is a team of young, energetic people who make sure that our food is consistently delicious. Decent portions of fries are hot and crispy. The burgers are also grilled to perfection every time we order. They also serve curly lettuce, not iceberg, which is huge. Oh! I can't forget to mention the condiment stand. Mudd's Burger Sauce is my favorite. There's also pickles, a hot sauce, diced onion, plus the usual. The 2024 season ends on October 5. There are still a few days left when Mississippi Mudds will be open. Thanks, and very likely, see you next year :).

    Hot dog and French fries
    Phil W.

    Stopped in to fuel up while on a bike ride. For a hot dog , fries and a drink $15 is almost ridiculous. (Trickle down economics in play here). Fries weren't crispy, tender but no crunch... hot dog had a little char, (it's a hot dog, you can't mess it up)... Fountain drink though... that definitely hit the spot ..icy cold. Not much to report in terms of service and ambience. Order food /get food/ seat yourself if you can snag an open table.

    Two scoops of ice cream for roughly $6
    Mark D.

    I have heard about this place, but have never been here until now. We happenrd to be in the area after having dinner in Tonawanda, when my wife suggested we visit. I had two scoops of ice cream, and so did she. As it was a Friday evening, we decided to grab our ice creams, and sit on the patio upstairs which overlooks the river. Definitely a beautiful experience. The staff did a good job ordering and serving our ice cream, which happens to be Perry's like most in the area.

    Sugar free fudge ripple ice cream
    Donna Y.

    Sugar free fudge ripple ice cream - yum! My hubby loves the vegan and gluten free vanilla custard and gluten free cones - so nice to have options for everyone! We love treating ourselves to an ice cream and then a walk by the river - it makes for a lovely afternoon in the summer.

    Milkshake
    Vicky B.

    Such a filling lunch! I had a hot dog, milkshake, and split an order of fries and was so stuffed I couldn't even finish the fries. Service was quick and ordering was easy. Food was fantastic, loved the outdoor seating options in both the sun or shade, and friendly staff. Highly recommend!

    Chicken bacon avocado sandwich
    Kristin C.

    Haven't been to Mississippi Mudds in forever, but can't wait to start revisiting this casual spring/summer spot. We usually go to Old Man River, but lucky for us it wasn't open for the season yet. The interior was super clean and the condiments were organized really well. I ordered the chicken avocado bacon sandwich- the chicken was tender and flavorful. The marinade they used on the chicken is delicious. My husband ordered the turkey burger and we shared the sweet potato fries which had the perfect amount of crisp. Can't wait to go back.

    Ask the Community - Mississippi Mudds

    Anyone have an idea on the prices here. I'm just looking for a simple hotdog and fry combo but the online menu doesnt have prices?

    we spent 21$ last week. had a hamburger, italian sausage and two drinks. i don't know individual item prices.

    Is it open?

    Seasonally. Opens around mid-March and stays open until mid-October

    Did Mississippi Mudds used to be Helf's in the late '60's to early 70's?

    Yes

They accepted a reservation for a party of 12, they welcomed us warmly, with empathy for the circumstances. They served us quickly and efficiently.

I highly recommend and we will definitely be sure to go back there again!!

It was not busy and we didn't have to wait for a table which is a plus. I ordered smoked turkey, with salad and sweet potato fries and a pg13 which was ginger beer, mint and I added a shot of vodka. When our food came out I had to question what was going on with the sweet potato fries because they had a thick coating and looked beer battered, not at all indicated on the menu. I asked the server, Kelsey W., and she paused and said yea I don't know for sure but if you can't have gluten I wouldn't eat them. I was annoyed at the situation and just took them off my plate but I understand this can happen. The server seemed annoyed and goes on to blame me and says I should have told her. Now will say I did have to go through the salad ingredients and pick most of them out, she didn't ask me about allergies either. And it's not common to add a beer batter coating to sweet potato fries without indicating it in the menu. The menu should be updated asap for other guests. Any other server would apologize for the situation and ask how they can make it better and not blame for a customer for a misunderstanding. After that I realized there was an extra sauce on the tray, I asked her to check with the kitchen to see what was in it, is it safe for me to eat? She came back 15 minutes later and said she will check and have an answer soon. It was not busy, this was not acceptable. Again clearly not showing any help for your guest with a food issue. This showed me she had zero concern or care about this or trying to smooth it over. Finally, towards the end of the meal I realized my water was leaking, had thought it was condensation as it was hot out. My glass, water cup had a huge crack in it. You would have hoped that someone would have seen it before serving it to someone. Clearly a safety issue. I hope I didn't ingest glass. I handed it back to our server and told her this glass needed to be tossed in the trash. Her response was another blank look, she didn't really care and just gave me another shallow I'm sorry. The rest of my meal was tasty and it was a large portion. Everyone else at my table had nice looking food and was happy with it. I will personally not come back here. District 37- it wouldn't hurt to update your menu and add what is gluten safe and indicate what kind of coating is on your sweet potato fries because a lot of people who choose these have special dietary needs. You should also train your staff to help bring up allergy issues with your guests and have more empathy if an issue arises. If this is something a server isn't able to work on they might consider an alternate employment opportunity.

I ended up playing several funny rounds of ad-libs with strangers which totally made the evening. I felt welcomed and comfortable, like I immediately was one of the regulars even my first time there. The beer is great and they have a ton of options including stuff on tap and in cans. Look for the tv on the wall for the list of current beers on tap; it's on the far left side of the bar just above the large front windows. My curly fries and chicken strips were perfection - think of the best possible version of those things and that's what I got here. This came with sides of BBQ sauce, blue cheese dip, and ketchup. I greatly enjoyed my pumpkin ale and would happily drink this again. I appreciate that there are so many vegan options on the menu (not my thing but it's nice to have a place to bring vegan friends!). A surprising very cool thing was the restroom. There is great art all over the walls! Check it out even if you don't need to, you won't regret it. I sat at the bar; there is another room with tables and a pool table and I think I spotted some hidden booths in the back. There are also a few outdoor tables out front. Lighting is pretty dim so if you're going to read a book, choose your seat strategically. General volume is on the louder side. Parking is on the street. I saw that they do trivia on Monday nights; there are a ton of flyers for upcoming events in the front window. Overall this was a very easy place to give five stars to.

I got the vegan Mac n cheese and the chicken tenders with fries. Everything I got wasn't good, the breading on the 'chicken' was disappointing and tasted like old oil. The vegan blue cheese was good surprisingly cuz I don't care for the real thing at all. The fries were fine but the Mac n cheese had absolutely no flavor, my kids said to me that mine was better and they aren't that picky with food elsewhere unless it doesn't taste like anything. For that I'll still be back to try other things cuz I appreciate the effort in making vegan food for us vegans out there.
