Hidden gem in the middle of nowhere. Huge portions of great food and a history lesson while you wait. Home of the most famous hunt in history and the birthplace of the teddy bear.
Very unique little place. Didn't stop for the food but did buy some of their delicious jams and jellies. Super friendly folks recommend stopping and checking it out!
The Onward Store is a great little restaurant about 30 minutes north of Vicksburg on Hwy 61 heading towards Rolling Fork. The prices are a little high, but the food was delicious. My wife and I got the shrimp dinner. We arrived a little late in the evening, and they were out baked potatoes. I was extremely happy with the service. Since they were out of certain foods, the hostess gave us a 10% coupon on our next visit. This is an old store I used to go to when I was a little kid (50+ years ago). It is the area when Teddy Roosevelt went bear.hunting. It's where the Teddy bear first started. This visit is worth the extra time to make.
We stopped by for a lunch during a road trip. I ordered the pork chop with gravy and lima beans. It also came with a cornbread. The pork chop with gravy was so yummy. It reminded me of my hometown favorite. The bathroom was upgraded and incredibly clean. We enjoyed the farm and creek view. I would definitely return.
Like other reviews stated, we stopped because this was the first sign of a restroom. The restrooms are very clean. After reviewing the menu, we decided to stay and have lunch. My wife had the catfish basket and I had the Wednesday lunch which included; fried chicken, Mac n cheese and turnip greens. The food is amazing. The employees were the nicest we have delt with in some time. We will definitely stop here again. Very nice atmosphere, 100+ year old building.
