There are so many alums staying in the CD, seems like there is an opportunity for some entrepreneurial person to have a to-go biscuit and coffee truck or stand. I’d selfishly like for it to be in the Coconuts lot. Blutos breakfast is good. But a place to walk over and grab a sack of breakfast wld be nice. Lots of good things happening in town. Beautiful weekend. JM.

There was a place in Starkville called the biscuit shop, run by a woman they called the biscuit lady. She moved her operations to the Tuscaloosa, AL area. I can attest that her biscuits were incredible.
I forgot all about that place. It was very good

Starkville needs breakfast places in general. When does 929 reopen?
This is true. We lived within walking distance of Starkville Cafe, and it was a weekend tradition no matter the season.

Set up a biscuit booth, a la the state fair. One free biscuit per drink (coffee, water, mimosa, etc) Then let the folks know they’re hungry and migrate to the main courses in a permanent fixture. Or maybe a food truck park, which are always fun.

People that will pay the 3-night minimum in Starkville could swing it.

Concur, I'll invest.
Dumbest of questions on that...we have a restaurant on the other end of the Plaza owned by 4, run by 1. How does investment work? You get full payout by ___, you get dividend on some schedule ?

As to a food truck, doesn't seem like much of an investment opportunity for more than 1 or 2, no?

It's amazing how many fans of other teams like the Starkville Cafe. We ate there after the EKU game, don't remember what time we got there.
Well....I could be considered one, since we come to town once per football season, if that. The biscuit place was the first consideration. Outside of that...starkville Cafe has a monopoly in the search engines.

Food truck park is a great idea. Also could do with a food hall if you could find the right spot.

She sold out to someone else that moved it to Northport I believe. I see her in Strarkville occasionally

The old location is about to open as a coffee shop upstairs and a family friendly 'game board' playing business downstairs (whatever that it). 929 said they would reopen at a later date elsewhere but I haven't heard where. The Coffee Depot isn't a full breakfast place but they have good scones, muffins, pastries, etc. It's in the old train depot across from Rosey Baby. I think it was a drug store before they opened up Coffee Depot. The Breakfast Club is open, again, in the old location on Eckford Drive where Cappey's and The Joint were too

You do not want Connie's Chicken unless you have some condition that prevents you from eating anything seasoned. The most tasteless, unseasoned fried chicken you will ever eat.

connies has fantastic chicken and the blueberry donuts are life changing, at least in Tupelo!

Starkville 17ed up letting Bojangles leave. Best damn chicken biscuit on the planet
Man I've lived in the Carolinas for a long time now, and I love me a bojangles biscuit. It's good, but it ain't the best. I'd say biscuitville or tudors are better. Nothing compares to my grandma's though!
