In the past, we’ve told you about must-visit retro spots, like Brent’s Drugs and Borroum’s Drug Store and Soda Fountain, but those aren’t the only decades-themed eateries in the state. Another that belongs on your radar is Blue and White Restaurant. Authentically retro, the restaurant looks like something straight from the 50s. Take a look:
Located in Tunica, Blue and White Restaurant first opened in 1924 alongside the original Route 61. It moved to its current location in 1937.

From the vinyl chairs and booths to the classic checkered floor, it’s undeniably retro. There’s even countertop seating – a cornerstone in diners of decades past.
