The Stables Downtown Grill

"For 5:00 in the afternoon the atmosphere was kind of blah here. The waitress was friendly, but not real attentive. She spent a lot of time with the customers that were drinking alcohol. We were not. We ordered a Philly cheesesteak with no onions. We specifically asked for the bell peppers. They left them off too. The waitress never even noticed. I had the shrimp poboy. We both had fries. The fries and the sandwiches were very salty. Too salty. We also ordered the blackened catfish nachos, a half order. They were the best thing we had. The poboy would have been much better if they would taken it easy on the salt. The shrimp were big and crispy. The sauce on the poboy was good. The fries were good if you ate them while they were still very hot. By the time we finished eating they were very rubbery. This is typical of frozen fries. They were okay when they were very hot, just all that dang salt . I would like to go back and maybe see if we could catch a different cook there maybe."

"Fun little bar with excellent food. Service was fast and atmosphere was great. We had the blackened catfish nachos as an appetizer and fried catfish platters. They were on point."

"We stumbled upon The Stables by accident when another restaurant we were going to weren't serving catfish. We were very happy to discover it because we had a great meal. We both ordered the catfish with fries and the fish and fries were cooked perfectly. The fish had the right amount of crunch while the fries were hot and crispy. The hush puppies and slaw were good too. The service was great and we liked the atmosphere. We couldn't believe we had been in Tupelo for nearly 3 years and hadn't been to this hidden gem. We will definitely be back to try their burgers and chicken fingers if we can keep from ordering the fish. Give The Stables a shot if you haven't already."

"The food is the very best of the best. Today, I had a cheeseburger with everything...and I mean everything. Cheddar, pepperjack, pickles, green peppers & onions, bacon, and a well-seasoned beef patty on a toasted bun with butter. Come on now! And a side of the BEST fries in town (hands down). As always, I had to carry half of my burger home. *Our most recent friends' lunch food selections included a catfish plate (plenty big to share), patty melt, pastrami and swiss, and Philly cheese steak. All EXCELLENT! Menus don't include prices, but the prices are very reasonable."

"The historic Stables Bar & Grill is a literal hole-in-the-wall, but a well-known local hangout. Fresh grilled salmon or salad for me, thanks. Popular daily plate lunches available for extra hungry folks & a full bar to keep you there from lunch well into the night."

"Go look at my other reviews, I don't drop stars like this lightly! No. 1. Atmosphere (Davis Alley) THE BEST IN TUPELO MS No. 2. The Service THE BEST IN TUPELO MS Our waitress stayed on top of all our needs! No. 3. The Food THE BEST IN TUPELO MS The blackened catfish nachos are remarkable (destroyed before getting a picture). I had the Stable Burger with EVERYTHING minus the mushrooms. This is THE BEST BURGER in Tupelo MS! My wife had the patty melt and raved about it also. And let's not forget, the beer was cold!"

"This place is a hidden gem!!! We just moved to Tupelo and came across this place by accident! The food is excellent, The prices are very reasonable. The wait staff and everyone are super friendly. Next weekend we're coming for the Brunch!!!"
