We visited White Front Cafe Joe's Hot Tamale Place this summer on our 3rd Mancation (a vacation to visit the Mississippi Blues markers and hear some tunes without our spouses (because they didn't want to come, despite being asked nicely) and got lucky enough to finally arrive when they were open! The tamales were excellent and the woman who helped us was wonderful! She told us the stories of the people who were pictured on the wall while we ate. We had ordered a bunch to just be good polite and say we had done it, but then ordered another bunch more! This is well worth the trip to Rosedale, Mississippi! Crank up the Robert Johnson and order twice as many as you think, because you'll want more! Most excellent addition to any adventure!

Great place to get some tamales. Only food they have is tamales but they are great and the owner has a lot of historical knowledge and is a treat to talk to. Grabbed some to go and will be back any time I'm in the area. Place is cash only so be sure to grab some before you go..

This place has been in my family for years. I grew up in this small town and had these often.

Guess that's your place if you like hand rolled tamales, this is your place. Authentic and friendly owner. Not your typical restaurant experience (in case that's what you are looking for). Enjoy the food if you are in that area.

If you like hand rolled tamales, this is your place. Just don't expect anything else. Carry out only right now.
Jack Coleman
Best hot tamales in the Delta, and the owner, Barbara Pope, has a heart of gold.

Go there if you have the chance.

A wonderful coworker named Eddie had several dozen (if not hundred) of these hot tamales frozen and delivered to Chicago. I have never had a hot tamale like this before... He brought me some multiple times from home and I could not get enough. I'll definitely be calling in to see if I can have some shipped to Chicago!
Very good hot tamales!!
