Old Country Store | Mississippi Roads | MPB

The Old Country Store has served a variety of purposes in its 130 year existence. The old store has been everything from a general store to a bus station. Arthur Davis, the self proclaimed Fried Chicken Cooking King procured the old store 12 years ago, and has been cooking up a bit of magic ever since. Mr. Davis and his fried chicken have been featured on the Food Network, Southern Living Magazine, and countless local and national newspapers. Mr. Daviss brand of southern cooking combined with his love of song is sure to provide any customer with a down home dining experience.

    I visited this place long ago (25 years) when i was a child. I still remember it and how much my grandmother loved going here on our way to Alabama. Good memories! I hope to go back one day soon.

Delightful and inspirational entrepreneur who lives up to his Chicken King moniker. The celebrated showman PT Barnum ain't nothing compared to this guy. Mr. D is all heart and funning ... but deadly serious about throwing DOWN on that magical buffet.

It was obvious we were not locals... we finally sat ourselves and the folks working there just sat and watched us... maybe we missed something, but it was obvious we were there to eat and were left dismayed at the lack of service we received.. Touching story, but I wouldn't stop at that place again, certainly wouldn't go out of the way for fried chicken... You can get the Worlds best anything anywhere.. just ask anyone trying to hustle yard bird...

Have you been sadly brainwashed to the point of losing your own morality, all in the name of “picking a side”?
