Absolutely impressed with this museum. I can not believe how much fun we had at this place!…read more My teenager absolutely loved it! The Mississippi Arts and Entertainment Experience (The MAX) is a museum that opened April 28, 2018 in Meridian, MS. The 50 million dollar museum highlights Mississippi artists and entertainers in every artistic discipline. From Elvis Presley's Tupelo, to B.B. King's Indianola, to Jimmy Buffet's Pascagoula, to Eudora Welty's Jackson, to Walter Anderson's Ocean Springs, it shines the spotlight on Mississippi's many contributions to the entertainment industry. The exhibits are organized around 6 themes: Land, Community, Home, Church, People + Places, and Global Community. There are 15 total permanent galleries of exhibits and 2 spaces for changing exhibits.

Guided tours, fantastic visiting exhibits, classes, classroom activities, etc. are outstanding…read more You won't find another experience like this one.

There's furniture, clothes, books, tools, crafts/craft items, signs and so much more like those unique items you will only find at a place like this. I will have to say for as large as this place is, they have done a good job keeping it organized and looking nice inside. Do be mindful of one thing it isn't air conditioned, but they do have big fans to help keep it cool. However, if it's mid-summer I advise getting there early morning to beat the heat.

I frequent this store everytime coming back from Gulf Shores prior moving to the local flea market (see picture for location). The biggest highlight for me stopping over is the food. I love home made churn butter & hoop cheese. Their home made wheat, and raisin breads are the freshest breads I have eaten next to my local bakeries a small bit of butter or home made jams complimented each slice. Side of hoop cheese made this a excellent breakfast snack.      The cashiers' a pleasure. With her friendly attitude & helpful in finding any particular product I was seeking or interested me in a bestseller & personal recommendations. Outside of the food offered. Other merchandise available such as a few antiques collectables, knick knacks & other old items found at a country general store. The suspense & eagerness to visit their store again is intense. I have to visit Captain Amish at their flea market location next road trip & I currently live further then Marion.    I do recommend locals or anyone driving thru to make this a stop on a road trip or enjoyable part of their flea market visit.  I included some extra food recommendations below the FB link. Be sure to like on FB & tell a friend https://www.facebook.com/captainsamishstore/ Recommendations: lemon squares apple pie & Home made Sticky Buns.

Love this place!! Amish cheeses, fresh baked breads and vine ripe tomatoes & other produce. Goods…read moremade by the Amish community in Ohio. Furniture from Mennonites in MO. plus other great stuff Capt. Richard Gatewood finds from all over. Lots of cool stuff here!!! This is a super cool store with something for most people. My sons loves the cheese and butter. I like the fresh baked bread and the raw local honeys and some of the artisan items are hard to pass on. There's so much going on here from the small glass baseball refrigerator magnets to the 8 foot concrete painted alligator to the cheese curds and the vine ripe tomatoes. They have a truly eclectic selection of, how did they used to say it in the good old days, goods and wares. What got my attention initially was the homemade goods like the jams, jellies, relishes, 40 types of cheeses and Amish butter and it keeps me coming back for more. This place actually reminds me of a cross between an old country stores in Appalachia and a roadside stand in Amish country Pennsyavania with hand crafted furniture and lawn ornaments and shelves full of canned pepers and chow chow. It's just plain cool!! They don't have a website that I can finfld but there's a Facebook page at:wew.facebook.com/captainsamishstore/ and a local business listing at: http://www.visitmeridian.com/index.cfm/shop/all-shop/captains-amish-ole-country-store/

We had grabbed a few beers to entertain though there were a number of them that the keg was already tapped unfortunately. There was large outdoor seating area with a small outdoor stage as well, probably for day concerts. A jazz band was setting up inside the play for the night though which was nifty. Food was decent. I had gotten the grilled cheese and fries. Others had gotten burgers and chicken tenders, and there were mozzarella sticks to share. Fries came out hot which was nice, but nothing's gonna wow you on that end. Oil definitely needed to be changed though to be honest. Can be good for certain purposes, but misses on other marks.
