We were referred to Jim’s Cafe by several locals while in Greenville for the Tamale Festival. Their recommendation was spot on. We had the Western Omelette with hash browns and toast. The omelette was a very good sized portion and full of grilled vegetables. The hash browns were amazing, lightly crispy and very delicious!! The coffee was very good, not bitter or too strong. The staff was very friendly and courteous. Would definitely recommend Jim’s Cafe.

Great breakfast and lunch spot in downtown Greenville!
Historic location with lots of character. Old man’s liar table in the back!
Breakfast is eggs, toast or biscuit, grits and bacon or sausage. It’s good.
Great hot lunches; a meat and three. The burgers are good, club sandwich is good. Homemade salad dressings, excellent comeback.
Vegetables are seasoned well. Great, friendly service. Fast, efficient and a good value.
Chicken and dressing with cranberry sauce allows for Thanksgiving year-round. Every Wednesday!
Beef tips are like a roast and the gravy is savory. Good rice.
Butterbeans are seasoned with salt and black pepper.
Sweet potato casserole is sweet, creamy and a quasi-dessert!
The hamburger steak is great. The pinto beans are real good, too!
Eat here often! It’s comfort food!

Came into town for the hot tamale festival for work. When I first came to the restaurant there was a line. I went into the bathroom to change my shirt. When I exited the restroom the waitress told me to never come back in there again. I am black and I didn’t know that Greenville Ms was still a segregated community. Don’t do recommend this restaurant. Feel bad for this establishment to be honest

Sitting near the tail end strip of downtown Greenville is this lovely, local diner. The food was delicious and comforting, and I loved the homemade hot sauce for my from scratch biscuits and gravy. Lots of locals dining, chatting, making it a very lively experience. It's adjacent to where the original Stein Mart location opened. First time seeing a taxidermied, Peccary, tusked, Large Mouth Bass. I wonder what this mythical beast's name is?

I eat there as much as I can. Great lunches. Homemade vegetable soup and cornbread, chicken and dressing is to kill for, meatloaf is great with mashed potatoes and red gravy plus much more too many to list

Great place with an atmosphere that is hard to beat. SO authentic (although the toilets could do with a bit of refurbishment). The food is homemade and tastes completely as it should! Finally, eat here if you are near Greenville and want some southern food ?
Really old school Americana experience here, and best of all the breakfast was fabulous, particularly the hash browns. But what absolutely made the place was Michael who chatted away to us and offered to show us a bit more of Greenville, taking us to see the new mural over the road.
A lovely experience in addition to the already delightful food. Thanks Michael, and I hope you keep taking pride in your town and let others know as you did with us!

Do yourself a favor and make it a point to stop in here to eat if you are ever passing through Leland.Jim's Cafe has been in business at this location since 1909. The family that owns and operates this business is the fourth generation. This family has owned this business for over 90 years!The food is pure Southern home cooking at its best. The Southern hospitality is as good as it gets.We arrived today at 12:30. It was packed with locals. All eyes were on us as we entered because they were trying to figure out who the strangers were. By 1:30, it was pretty cleared out.They have daily specials, and we overheard the server telling some late comers about some side dishes that they were out of already.It was Wednesday, and we both ordered the daily special. You are given a choice of two meats and three side dishes. I got the chicken and dressing. My wife got the beef tips over Rice. We both thought we ordered the best dish. The sweet potato casserole was to die for good. It was right on par with the Cherry Cheese Pie.So glad we made this stop today.
