Annie M’s Cafe

Greeted by courteous staff. Ordered half chef salad which was plenty for one person. The salad ingredients were fresh and crisp. Ordered fresh baked cornbread as a side.
You must visit the dessert display of fresh baked 5 layer cakes, bread pudding and more.
Easy access off/on US Hwy 49 located end of shopping plaza. Ample parking and located near convenience store/fuel.
A must stop.

Went for early lunch on a Sunday and everyone else must've thought the same as there was only one spare table. They offer a buffet on Sunday that included assorted fried and baked chicken, shepherds pie, chicken and dressing, meatloaf, mashed potatoes and gravy, white rice, Mac and cheese, field peas, lima beans, green beans, rolls and Cornbread. Everything was pretty good and was about $12. Highly recommend if you find yourself on 49 in Flora.

Wow! I can’t believe this place is *next door* to Bentonia in Flora! An AMAZING working man’s pulled pork blue plate (...called it 10 H and added that data to paper log after pic). And ordered a slightly tweaked cobb salad (1x grilled chicken tender substituted for turkey) for later. Well worth the $30 bucks 💸, including tip and five BIG stars. 😏😀😎

Everyone I ask about Annie M’s Café raves, so been wanting to try it out—especially since it replaced the boring fried Glycine max farm-fed fried catfish place that was there before (No desire for fat 🐡 swimmin’ in earl! 🤢). Was excited to see the black ’n’ blue on the Google maps menu until told no longer but can make some chicken-based salad (...prolly good but with fake blue cheese, i.e., Syscosumfin ranch? Didn’t ask. 🙄🤣). The “Slow roasted pulled pork topped with cole slaw and BBQ sauce...” sandwich with potato salad were generous portions, unfortunately devoid of any spices and BOTH the ripped pig 🐗 AND bun were as cold as the TINY dabble of slaw. Thank goodness I added grilled mushrooms, but they put the BBQ sauce instead of THEM on the side!??! The mushrooms must have been grilled in a previous life—cold, too. 😞 No Coke but at least they have Pepsicocrud whatever root beer. Minus 1 star for all the cold stuff, and hopefully they know a REAL hamburger goes on a grilled bun for next time!

Oh, the desserts will fix ANY hypo (bread pudding today)—just remember portion control AND be smart order to go! Lol

Maybe I’m asking for too much, but if they had a REAL grilled corned beef Reuben with plenty of caraway seed sauerkraut AND Russian dressing (...NOT 1,000 islands whateva Lol) I’d be in culinary Heaven.

Great service, food was very good. Family had a variety of items (salads, chicken fried steak, jumbo shrimp, chicken tenders, pork chops, Hawaiian chicken sandwich, cheeseburger, and several types of cake). We were all happy and there was more food than we could eat. Lastly, we came with a party of 11 an hour before they closed and they were still very kind and helpful!

Do yourself a favor and stop in this little out of the way jewel. Absolutely delicious food in a rural area. I had the eggs benedict and grits. The eggs benedict was amazing and the grits were really good..not just your average grits. I can't wait to stop in again and try their lunch and dinner menu!
