    This was my first visit to the Daily Grind and really enjoyed my mocha frappe and the service. Will definitely go back and try some of their food items next time.

    There was something different about this place from the first time I visited. There was more seating I believe? The food was still awesome! The service still great! I had the Greek salad and yes I do recommend. My dad had never been before so I suggested the spicy chicken wrap they have "chic a boom" I believe is the name. See previous review. Yeah he was a fan, though he said, "boy this has a little kick to it" .

    Hamburger Pasta

    Hamburger Pasta served by, the ever-bubbly, Camille makes for the PERFECT Wednesday treat! We will definitely be returning!

    Absolutely the best place in Meridian. For a variety of amazing food. The atmosphere takes all the stress away. And the people are the best. We became like family real fast with the amazing staff

    The Daily Grind is a charming little hideaway in a sleepy little city. The closest Starbucks is approximately 80 miles away near Jackson, Mississippi. While I'm famously addicted to Starbucks, driving over 1 hour for a Chai Latte just isn't practical. Luckily for the 38,000 Meridian residents, the Daily Grind offers a fabulous coffee shop experience complete with Chai Lattes and an array of blended coffee drinks and Frenzees. They also take their proximity to New Orleans seriously and offer excellent Beignets. Breakfast is served from 7:00 am until to 10:30am. Lunch begins at 11 and offers a nice selection of Paninis, salads and sandwiches. Don't forget to top all the yumminess off with homemade cake or pie by the slice. Did I mention homemade cookies too? This warm and welcoming spot can't be missed.

    Great atmosphere

    I'll be visiting family there soon and I'm looking for a place to have a big vegan breakfast? Do you make chickpea flour omelette? Do you have homemade vegan cheese or do you buy a specific brand? Do you make your own seitan?

    Give them a call. They do have veggie choices. And have a special menu. :-)

Service was steady and unobtrusive, the kind of pacing that lets a group focus on the meeting without interruptions or long waits. As our group continues to grow, this spot is shaping up to be our go‑to. The combination of quiet midday atmosphere, dependable food, and smooth service makes it an easy pick for recurring meetups. Management listens to customers, refreshing!

    Weidmann's Restaurant located in Meridian, Mississippi is Mississippi's oldest continuously…read moreoperating restaurant. Since 1870, Weidmann's has welcomed everyone from railroad workers and weary travelers to soldiers and hometown heroes, earning its place in Mississippi's history. Founded by Swiss immigrant Felix Weidmann, the restaurant opened during Meridian's rise as one of the South's busiest railroad crossroads. During World War I, the restaurant temporarily relocated to Hattiesburg to help feed the thousands of soldiers training at nearby Camp Shelby. One of its quirkiest traditions is the complimentary peanut butter and crackers brought to every table. During World War II, butter rationing led the restaurant to serve peanut butter and crackers instead. Customers loved it so much that the tradition continues more than 80 years later. In 1935, when brothers Al and Fred Key took to the skies in their airplane, Ole Miss, they weren't just chasing a world record--they were trying to save Meridian's airport from closing during the Great Depression. They spent an unbelievable 653 hours and 34 minutes--more than 27 days--without landing. They stayed aloft by pioneering air-to-air refueling techniques. Their record stood until astronauts aboard Skylab surpassed the duration in space in 1973. One of the celebrations honoring their historic flight took place right here at Weidmann's, forever connecting the restaurant to one of aviation's greatest achievements. I ordered the shrimp and grits, and they were outstanding. The shrimp were perfectly cooked, the grits were creamy and full of flavor, and every bite tasted fresh and homemade. Of course, you can't leave without trying their famous peanut butter and crackers--a tradition that's become part of the restaurant's history. The staff was friendly, the atmosphere was warm and full of character, and you can tell they take pride in preserving this historic landmark. If you appreciate great Southern food and places with a story to tell, Weidmann's is absolutely worth the stop.

Maybe even a "Super Cracker Not Lacking Electro Current Cracker Barrell"! ™. It's mine, you can't have it. I will find you! You can juice up the ride and fuel the body with some mediocre foods. That's like a win/tie!! Get it?? Win/Tie?? I am just so witty, I can't stand it! Our original server traded us off for a regular that came in and sat in another section. It's hard to deal with rejection right at the beginning of a relationship. We barely even just met, lady!! I shook it off well as the other server l was really nice and took good care of us. I'll send the therapy bill to Martha later. I never got to see any of the remodels that occurred that got everyone up in arms about Ol' Uncle Hershel, so this one looks just like they all do. Cool fireplace, nice warm colors. Just the right amount of dust covering the old artifacts. You know.... Just like the old days. Food was fair. My dumbass got catfish worth my UH breakfast. That was a mistake, but other than that I enjoyed my meal. Eggs were perfect and it was hot and fresh. Biscuits and gravy baskets make me really happy too!! Win/tie for sure!! I must not have gotten C's breakfast pic. She had pancakes and bacon which is always a winner!! She probably said something like "how many fucking pictures of pancakes do you need, Adam".... and I stopped. She's cool like that most days. I ended up spending almost a $100 on breakfast because of the stupid gift shop catching my wife with "sales". Is it really a sale if it is junk that you don't need? I think not.... We left with gifts for the in-laws, which I good I guess since we were on the way to see them just before Christmas. They are jerks, and don't deserve things. Nice visit.

    Public Safety Alert: Menu Misrepresentation, Undisclosed Pork Concealed in Cajun Pasta at Bistro 24…read more On July 4, 2026, during a holiday trip from Georgia (5+ hour drive), my fiancée and I dined at Bistro 24 at Pearl River Resort. Having abstained from pork for over 30 years, I trusted the menu when ordering Cajun Pasta--a meatless base with a paid Chicken add-on. Unbeknownst to us, pork sausage was heavily concealed inside the thick Alfredo sauce and vegetable base. We elected carry-out containers after sampling several bites and returned to our room with the intentions of getting some much needed rest. Hours later, my fiancée suffered acute gastrointestinal distress. I called front desk to be connected to Bistro 24, in hope of speaking directly to a manager or food representative, to no avail. Moments later I suffered severe biological rejection resulting in acute emesis upon our bedding. At that time I requested housekeeping. We were forced to get dressed and leave our room at the Silver Star Hotel to address the issue in-person at Bistro 24 inside the Golden Moon Casino. We confronted the manager and Executive Chef. The Chef openly admitted, in front of the manager, that he intentionally added pork sausage to the base because "everyone was asking for it to be", despite omitting it from the menu. This was a deliberate decision to alter a dish without disclosing a restricted protein. We filed an on-property complaint with resort security (Officer Iris, badge #47). Post-departure, we sent emailed complaints. Risk Management sent a Certified Mail package offering a nominal $500 each, conditional upon signing a Confidential Release Form. We rejected it. I offered a final window for them to outline their corrective menu policies, but they chose total silence. CRITICAL SAFETY WARNING: I urge anyone with severe food allergies, religious/spiritual beliefs, or dietary restrictions to exercise extreme caution here. When a kitchen intentionally conceals pork inside a base sauce without labeling it, it creates a high-risk environment. You cannot trust this menu. Due to the resort's total lack of accountability, I am formally escalating this to the Choctaw Gaming Commission and the Office of the Tribal Chief for a full regulatory audit. We intend to exhaust all available means to protect public safety from corporate entities that fail to acknowledge grievances and operate outside of policies meant to protect the public.

There was some kind of street fair going on, so we parked in the back and walked in from the back door. It was a little confusing, but we four a very sweet server who showed us where to sit. I think her name was Lincoln and she was very sweet. The outdoor area was a little messy, but no big deal. The food was okay. I had a French burger that was a little flat tasting. My husband had the French dip. Again, it was just okay. Cocktails were pretty good. Based on that alone I probably wouldn't go back, but we were limited on choices due to having our dog with us. Here's where it took a turn. We went to our car and there was a very nasty note telling us, "The next time you park here you will be towed." It directed us to go inside to get someone to move their car which was blocking us in. We didn't see any other parking lot and there weren't any no parking signs. I went inside and found our waitress who gave the note to a woman sitting at the bar with papers spread out in front of her. I assume she was the manager or owner. She didn't say a word and sent the waitress to move her car. All of the sudden our sweet server wasn't so sweet. Come to find out, the parking lot entrance was on the side where the street fair was and we couldn't see it. I think that is a pretty nasty way to treat customers. I don't recommend this place at all.
