Where would be a great place for dinner in Tupelo on Wednesday night, an after dinner drink spot and the best place to try and eat Thanksgiving lunch on Thursday?

OT: Thanksgiving in Tupelo
- Thread starter DAWGSANDSAINTS
- Start date
Lots of good restaurants down town (nautical whimsy, amsterdam deli, grill, park heights, chop house). Would recommend the restaurant bar at Hotel Tupelo for after dinner drinks. Nothing really open in Tupelo for thanksgiving except Cracker Barrel you'd be better off driving on to Starkville.
If it's a casual/fun dinner and drinks you're looking for on Wednesday, I like KOK downtown for food and Blue Canoe for live music while you drink.
Forklift - dinner & drinks
Blue Canoe - drinks & music
Woody's for Thanksgiving - reservations are advised for this
All these are locally owned also.

KOK is closed now. I think that’s where Van Atkins jewelers is opening a new store. Agree, not much will be open on thanksgiving, but woodys would be a good choice if they are.
Damn really?? Hate that. What about Neon Pig - same owners I think, is it still open?
If you're looking for something downtown I always go with the Grill, Nautical Whimsey, or Lone Star. All are pretty good in their own way, but if you want something fancier I'd go upstairs from the Grill to Park Heights. If you're wanting to hear some music that night I'd go with Blue Canoe or Steele's Dive.
And like everyone else said, Woody's is about the only place that you're gonna get on Thanksgiving Day.
KOK has been gone for a long time. So has its successor Kermit's Soul Kitchen.
When KOK closed he opened Jobo in the new Tupelo Hotel. I haven’t eaten there yet but have had drinks there. Chophouse is behind Tupelo Hotel if you are looking for a good steak.
I don’t know personally but the wife says it’s the same guy. We met friends there for drinks last Friday. She’s never wrong even if you are right!
