    Fish Filet Sandwich and fries
    Marilyn W.

    What a beautiful day to go by the water and get a bite to eat. We both had the fish sandwich and fries. The sandwich was surprisingly good! Afterwards we enjoyed ice cream of course- always yummy

    Haven't been here in a while so it was nice to stop here while the weather is still good. Love the calming view of the water (no pics of that today). I ordered a bacon cheese hot dog & sweet potato fries. The fries were absolutely yummy! I'm a big hot dog fan but don't think I'll order this particular one again. I expected it to be wrapped in bacon but it seemed like bacon bits, unless it was just cooked so crisp that it crumbled. Either way, I think I'd prefer the dog without it. My friends ordered grilled chicken sandwiches which they seemed to enjoy. My husband got a sausage with peppers and onions and a strawberry shake. Overall good meal. 2025-76

    Sweet potato fries are amazing. The food is good. The view is good. The service is great. One scoop of ice cream is huge. We shall definitely return.

    I enjoy going here for hots, burgers, fries. Haven't had anything I disliked. Fenced in play area for kids. Very friendly staff. Will be back many more times this season.

    We ordered the vegan chicken sandwich, cheeseburger, and two vegan burgers with French fries everything was fresh and hot to order. The French fries were crispy and hot. That's the perfect way to eat fries. We also ordered two chocolate milkshakes. They were cold, thick and full of chocolate flavor. One of my favs for sure. The service was quick and very kind. I thoroughly enjoyed the ambiance of the restaurant. Not too bright with mostly natural lighting.

    Got a sundae with hot fudge and peanut butter and was very excited until I got to the custard/ice cream. It had no flavor. It tasted like heavy cream. Not vanilla. I didn't want to make a stink about it so I just threw the sundae away as it was not what I wanted nor expected. The service was good and the girl took my order with a smile and it was ready right away. It was busy and lines moved quickly. The place looked nice with the signage lit up. I'll be back but for something else. Maybe a shake

    Cheese and bacon fries
    Richard P.

    We visited on a week night in September and they were not very busy at the time. I ordered the caesar chicken sandwich which I have enjoyed several times. My wife and I shared the cheese and bacon fries which were suitably smothered, and were plenty for us both. The prices are somewhat high, but you do have a nice view of the river. We come by here at least once every summer.

    Fish sandwich with cheese
    Norma P.

    Stopped by for dinner with my husband. I ordered the fish sandwich and shared a fries with cheese and bacon with my husband. The fish sandwich was delicious but $1.60 for cheese was too much. The fries were delicious and had a lot of cheese and bacon . Overall the food was very good but expect to pay a lot...prices are high!!! We try to go at least once every summer...the location is great being right by the water!!!.

    A Mighty Mudd Burger and Memphis Fries, please :). The food and location, which is right next to Niawanda Park in Tonawanda, is an ideal combination. It's summer and if you want something simple, satisfying and fun, this is the destination. Walking along the Niagara River is an enjoyable and relaxing activity. This is the main reason to be there, so you shouldn't skip it. Everyone who works at Mississippi Mudds is always very polite and helpful. This is a team of young, energetic people who make sure that our food is consistently delicious. Decent portions of fries are hot and crispy. The burgers are also grilled to perfection every time we order. They also serve curly lettuce, not iceberg, which is huge. Oh! I can't forget to mention the condiment stand. Mudd's Burger Sauce is my favorite. There's also pickles, a hot sauce, diced onion, plus the usual. The 2024 season ends on October 5. There are still a few days left when Mississippi Mudds will be open. Thanks, and very likely, see you next year :).

    Hot dog and French fries
    Phil W.

    Stopped in to fuel up while on a bike ride. For a hot dog , fries and a drink $15 is almost ridiculous. (Trickle down economics in play here). Fries weren't crispy, tender but no crunch... hot dog had a little char, (it's a hot dog, you can't mess it up)... Fountain drink though... that definitely hit the spot ..icy cold. Not much to report in terms of service and ambience. Order food /get food/ seat yourself if you can snag an open table.

    Two scoops of ice cream for roughly $6
    Mark D.

    I have heard about this place, but have never been here until now. We happenrd to be in the area after having dinner in Tonawanda, when my wife suggested we visit. I had two scoops of ice cream, and so did she. As it was a Friday evening, we decided to grab our ice creams, and sit on the patio upstairs which overlooks the river. Definitely a beautiful experience. The staff did a good job ordering and serving our ice cream, which happens to be Perry's like most in the area.

    Sugar free fudge ripple ice cream
    Donna Y.

    Sugar free fudge ripple ice cream - yum! My hubby loves the vegan and gluten free vanilla custard and gluten free cones - so nice to have options for everyone! We love treating ourselves to an ice cream and then a walk by the river - it makes for a lovely afternoon in the summer.

    Anyone have an idea on the prices here. I'm just looking for a simple hotdog and fry combo but the online menu doesnt have prices?

    we spent 21$ last week. had a hamburger, italian sausage and two drinks. i don't know individual item prices.

    Is it open?

    Seasonally. Opens around mid-March and stays open until mid-October

    Did Mississippi Mudds used to be Helf's in the late '60's to early 70's?

    Yes

    I stopped here to alleviate my gnawing hunger pains. It seemed like a great idea, sit down along…read morethe water front and enjoy my solitude. The night held promise. I was even pleasantly surprised when a flock of ducks came by to say hello. Now, the only thing I needed was a tasty delightful meal of sorts. I came up to the outdoor counter and stared at the menu: "burgers, hot dogs and fries;" okay -- the typical fare. The prices were surely super reasonable ($5-6 for a burger). That was a little too cheap in fact, so I inquired; "do you cook your burgers from frozen?" Indeed, they did. Ouch -- that was an incredible disappointment! My expectations were already low, but I figured I was so hungry that I wouldn't even notice. You know how when you get to that point where you're so hungry, even the worst cut of meat tastes delicious when plastered with the proper spices? That's how hungry I was. So I placed my order for a "Turkey Burger" (wanted to at least convince myself I was trying to be healthy) and sat down to enjoy my time along the river. At least the setting was great, right? Well, I don't blame the restaurant for this, but there were about 15 wasps that wanted to enjoy the river with me also. They didn't sting me, but they were super pesky. The peak of my enjoyment came when a flock of ducks came within an inch of my feet, looking at me curiously to see if I had some food. It was majestic. So, the turkey burger comes out. I am excited with anticipation, but as I bite into it all I taste is a huge dose of sodium. Is this meat or salt? Even my hunger wouldn't allow me to properly deceive myself and enjoy my food. I finished the burger, but with the sort of shame that accompanies eating such a meal. I then watched the lady behind the counter start feeding the ducks. Indeed, this food may be suitable for ducks but truth be told even they didn't look too happy eating it. It's definitely not the best people food. I will not be back unless they start properly sourcing their ingredients. Heck, raise your prices a little but get some fresh meat to serve your customers!

The menu is basically the greatest hits of American civilization: burgers, hot dogs, chicken sandwiches, Italian sausage, decent ice cream selection, and for those under 12 who can still confidently recite the Pledge of Allegiance without accidentally starting with "In God We Trust." Free i scream you scream an ice cream cone!!! They've also got beer, wine, and mimosas, because apparently Sea worthy Lumberjacks believes in equality between breakfast, lunch, and questionable afternoon decisions. But i didn't live that dangerous and had bottomless raspberry tea which was absolutely delicious. Like, "Why have I been drinking regular tea like some kind of peasant?" delicious. The band was great, too. And then came the plot twist....They announced that Lumberjacks is closing at the end of the season because the property has been bought by the city. Cue the dramatic violin music. So apparently, after providing waterfront food, beverages, music, and a place for people to sit around enjoying themselves, civilization has decided we've had enough. The city has acquired the property, and the Lumberjacks era is coming to an end. Which is unfortunate because if I had a boat and an eye patch, I'd probably be permanently docked here by now. I'd have a raspberry tea in one hand, a beer in the other, and absolutely no idea where my boat came from. Great food. Great waterfront patio. Reasonable prices. Good music. Good drinks. And apparently a limited-time offer because the city is taking over. If you haven't been, go before the season ends. Because nothing says "support your local restaurant" quite like finding out it's being taken away and suddenly developing a deep emotional attachment to the place. 10/10 would return. 11/10 if I had a boat. 12/10 if someone gives me an eye patch. ‍
