“Great catfish and shrimp. The corn ribs were a new eating experience and they were delicious too. Excellent service and conversation with other local customers who dine there often was very encouraging with their numerous return visits. Prices very reasonable and the restaurant was spotless. We were there for lunch July 23rd.”
“An actual coffee that doesn’t taste burnt or full of WAY too much syrup…plus the people and atmosphere are legit!”
“It is a very clean restaurant. The people are friendly and the food is amazing.”

“Food was great and the staff were so friendly. I will definitely be back !”
“we finally tried this place last night after living here for almost 3 years. The food was excellent, the service was excellent. We will definitely be back.”
“A California girl who lives in the south always in search for authentic Mexican food. It’s rare to actually find one, and it’s here in Laurel, Ms. We were traveling from Tennessee to Nola, and figured we’d stop here for some lunch. It did not disappoint!!! It’s no different than the meals I would eat in Juarez when visiting and in my home town - also the service is unmatched and it’s close to the freeway. I would definitely be hitting this spot every weekend if it weren’t for the drive. Y’all get you some real Mexican food!”

“First place me and my husband came to when we drove into town, literally off the highway to here. Immediately became our favorite spot! Best Po Boys in town, Gumbo to warm your soul, fries are to die for and much more. Owner is the best and had my husbands order down by the third visit! lol It’s months later and this is still our go to spot since moving here 7 months ago!”
“It's been my go to place since I was a kid. Every time I am in Laurel, I make a special trip there for a butterscotch milk shake and a chili burger. When I worked at South Central 20 years ago, I always went at least once a week for a fountain Coke and a big hamburger after a long night shift. It was the only place in town with a drive thru to get a burger before 1030. This place never disappoints!”
“Jackson at Raising Canes Laurel has exceptional customer service and is so kind! Wonderful experience, great staff... I really appreciate his help in going out of his way to locate a lost item and return it to us. Jackson deserves a raise!”
“Was passing through Laurel, was looking for a pet friendly place to stop and eat.
Great concept. Plenty of shade for outdoor sitting and the pup. Play area for the kids. And food was great. Had the cheeseburger all the way and onion rings.”

“Got chili burgers and a chicken strip basket. Food was fresh. Wait time wasn't bad. Burgers are good. Chicken is real good. I gave the atmosphere five stars because it was quiet and comfortable while I was there. I can't give it a real rating because I wasn't there at a peak time and was getting my order to go.”
“I don't want to not recommend this place but today was just awful. There were two tables of people there today including us so no crowd at all. We ordered 2 grilled cheese sandwiches one wrap and 3 waters. I don't know what the deal was but it took 45 minutes to receive our order. I finally walked up to check and they were just getting around to it. my son said the kid at the counter had no business dealing with customers. It was unacceptable we should have left but we had already paid and the kids were hungry. We wanted coffee but figured it was a lost cause. Thought you should know”
“Kinda unusual to get Mexican food through the drive thru 🥴.....bc the food was just as it would have been if we'd dined in. I was impressed with that, however the menu was hard to decipher and had lil trouble understanding the person taking our order. We did not wait long and everything we needed was in the bag. Not really fast food though.
It just happened to have a drive thru 😊”
“I ordered eggplant parmigiana , hubby spaghetti w/marinara sauce
Eggplant sliced thin , stacked with cheeses and a good basil sauce. Hubby liked his entree, also . Had glaases of pino noir. Generous pours for $8.00. New server. Had a couple questions she couldn't answer but should have asked so she can know for other customers. She was very sweet.”
“First time to eat at Laurel Firehouse Subs. Nice clean location, friendly staff, big selection of subs, and food was delicious”
“We ate there Tuesday and service was excellent. Our server was awesome. Her name was Phoebe she was so helpful and just genuinely nice.”

“Went to celebrate my birthday and had the best steak I think I may have ever had!! It practically melted in my mouth! Started with a spinach salad smothered in hot bacon vinegarette 🤤 I normally don't eat the whole salad so I have more room for dinner but THIS salad... I could have licked the bowl it was so wonderful 😊. With my 8oz filet I had roasted asparagus that was tender and flavorful, while my husband had the 12oz ribeye and fried brussel sprouts that made me wish I had ordered those too. I was so stuffed and I was able to bring some home. I HAD to get the bread pudding to go and haven't tried it yet but it's huge and looks/smells amazing!! Definitely worth making a special trip for on a special occasion, or anytime for that matter!!”
“One of the best hidden treasures in town! Their home cooked meals are absolutely delicious! It’s so hard to find places that serve home cooked meals & this place did not disappoint! The sweet treats are definitely worth the stop all by themselves. I honestly don’t understand the bad reviews. I definitely think you should give it a shot if you’re in town! You won’t be disappointed!”
“It was good i always get the italian herbs and cheese with the buffalo and mayo teriyaki chicken toasted with olives jalapenos and banana peppers i like the spicy stuff also the rasberry cheesecake cookies are amazing my favorite cookie of all time! The only thing i dislike is their new sweet onion sause BEWARE of the new onion sause its disgusting bring back the original one!”
“I’ve eaten there so many times over the years I’ve lost count. Laurel has very little to choose from to begin with so it’s not like there’s any competition locally. I’ve never once got sick, the buffet hasn’t got a large selection but that’s a actually a plus. It’s always fresh. Their fried wontons are like no other in the country, I’ve never eaten one at any other place in several states that even come close.”
“Had to order lunch for my work crew of 6 and it came quickly and was very hot and delicious and the staff was very nice and polite. The manager, I think her name was Amanda, was nice and helped out whenever we had questions about what all comes on them and the pricing. The lobby was clean and smelled good and everything seemed very good and in order. Alot better of an experience than the Subway by Piggly Wiggly. Honestly, I will never go back to any other subway around here after going there. Very good job to the management and crew. Keep up the hot sandwiches and good work.”

“A must stay historic home in downtown Laurel Mississippi. Surround yourself in charming antiquities and be prepared to be pampered by Jenny. Peaceful and quaint with a lot of Southern hospitality. Breakfast was amazing!”
“Don’t sleep on Classic Cookie!! We “always have and always will” order our cakes from here. My personal favorite is all chocolate icing but my sweet boy wanted a Spider-Man design and was thrilled when he opened the box to find this. It’s also not uncommon for us to swing by and grab all of the mini critters available in their case. I appreciate the owners and their dedication to this business for so many years as well as their customer service. 🍪”
“ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC PLACE!!!!

GOD BLESS EACH AN EVERYONE OF YOU ALL FOR JOBS YOU DO....
THANK YOU SO MUCH 🙏 ❤”
“Celiac here 👋 I was hesitant to eat here as there are few GF reviews and unmarked menus but I wanted to try. I spent time talking with the cashier and the Manager came over and looked up the ingredients for me to help me decide. I ordered the meat lovers cauliflower crust pizza and they took all the precautions for cross-contamination. I didn't get sick and it was so delicious! The other 4 in my party had calzones and liked it - portions are big. Would eat there again! There are so sweet and accommodating.”
“I know Hardee's in New Ulm MN has had some issues, but I went there today and was more than impressed! there were at least four people working there and they were so friendly and the food came really fast. it was fresh and hot and delicious! I can't wait to go there again, it looks like they have really pulled it together!”
“Of the 5 Subway locations in Laurel, this location is the best one. The other locations are not quite at the same level.
The quality of the sandwich is very good and when you look at what you get compare to other fast food places, this restaurant is the best value and far more healthy for you than any other place.
By now I think we have tried most places in Laurel for a fast lunch and generally we just come back to this place. The place is clean, the extras you get on your sandwich are not frozen (except the meat ball sandwich). It is worth coming to this place.”
“Coffee and food are always perfect! Everything is clean and fast. Pick up orders are always on time and fresh! Best place in town!”
“I went there twice, once for my mother and then for my mother-in-law who can't get out. The people who work here are just awesome and the food is fantastic. Thank y'all for making me feel at home.”
“This place is an entire vibe! The staff is amazing, the musician last night set the mood perfectly and the steak was DELICIOUS! 10/10 recommend when visiting Laurel.”
“We love The Tackle Box! Husband got a steak and I got the 1/2lb Snow Crab and 1/2lb boiled shrimp. Everything was delicious! And great prices for the amount of food!!”

“I’m a truck driver, traveling from New Orleans, I stopped by Hardee’s the three ladies they greeted me very nicely. The restaurant was very clean and I couldn’t believe the general manager was on night shift. That’s says a lot about management and customer service. The food was fresh and my cashier Amber was very nice and her smile lit up the room. I will definitely return to Hardees on Chantilly Street”

“I always stop here when I am visiting from NOLA. The best donuts, breakfast sandwiches, and coffee drinks in town! The staff are very nice and friendly, and prodessional. The donuts are very light, fluffy and tasty, and also great when I put leftover donuts in the microwave the next day. My only go to place for donuts in Laurel!”

“Ciara was an excellent server and took great care of us! She made sure our drinks were filled and the food came out quickly. Despite her running around taking care of other tables she made us feel like we were the only ones in the dining room.. best service we’ve had in a while to be honest. I got the ultimate sampler and my girlfriend got the chicken wrap… food was hot and fresh and we will definitely be back soon! Thanks again Ciara!”
“6/20/26 This morning we went in for breakfast the waitress came over to take our order I told her the table needs to be wiped off first she said that would wiped the table off after she take the order. So she left I told my friend she have no intention of wiping this table off that had sticky stuff all over it. About 45 minutes later she brings food out we told her we didn't want our food sat on a nasty table so lady behind us had just left to keep from cleaning the table where we were sitting at she ask us to move so we did the food was cold. Then a white man came and sit at the table she ask him to move but he wanted that table just like we did cause it was quite behind the door . That lady went back to the registry and stood around playing on phone awhile later a white ldy came and wipe the table off I don't guess there was a supervisor out there if so she was telling them they job. We had to bring half our food home cause it was cold as ice I guess she just let it sit up there. If I go back out there don't want her waiting on me never.”
“If you go to McDonald's, you might want to sit in the line. They really don't pay too much attention to you inside. They rude as hell. Bathrooms be disgusting and lobby trashed because they always packed. One girl tried to help them by cleaning because she was trying to get a job there and he kicked her out and banned her from the restaurant. Management rude and bougie. . .
Parking: Around the entire restaurant
Kid-friendliness: Somewhat.
Wheelchair accessibility: Yes”
“Went by yesterday because I just had to have a footlong coney. It's been years since I've gone. Took my order promptly and I came out very fast. The man who brought my food said the order so fast I couldn't understand what he said. Turns out, he was the manager and explained that with the fast paced environment, they get used to talking fast. He repeated the order for me more slowly so I could understand. Very pleased with his customer service. It's so rare to find people that will accommodate you. And to be fair, I had a very long week and was tired... so I was probably listening slow. 😅 Shout out to you sir, thank you for making my food and my day. 😄”

“As a native Laurelite, I've been here for many, many years and have visited all the usual dessert places on my wife's and my payday date nights.
For tonight's date night, we tried something different.
Ladies and gentlemen, whether you're looking for something good to snack on after a sweltering Sunday church sermon or you're hunting for munchies after visiting the dispensary down the road, look no further.
Las Fresitas is genuinely magic. It's a welcoming, wonderful little Spanish dessert and comfort food shop in our own backyard. It's super clean, fun, fresh, and just an all-around amazing environment.
I got the Fresas con Crema and my wife got the Churro Split, and as we took our first bites, we both felt like we were back on the Caribbean and Mexico cruise we took last year. At one point, we stood in our living room eating the Churro Split in complete silence, close to tears over how good it was.
All of this to say: my wife and I both rate it 5/5, would come again (and would also gladly add 15 pounds of pure churro fat to our midsections).”
“Never been to hog heaven before today but I’ll definitely be back. Great food and even better service. Exactly what I’m looking for when I visit a Mississippi barbecue joint. A true traditional style barbecue with a modern Mississippi flair.”
