Johnnie's Drive In Reviews
Go for the nostalgia. Food was hot and fresh.Great service even when they were busy.Welcoming atmosphere. And that ranch they gave me to dip my food in-best ever.Price was extremely reasonable for what I ordered
Great food and service and the staff are very friendly
The service from our waitress (Amanda) was good, and the food was good also. Make sure you see the eating booth that has the photograph of Elvis Presley when he was dining there...many (many, many) years ago.

The menu features hamburger steak plates, ribeye steak sandwiches, doughburgers, pimento cheese sandwiches, potato salad, pecan pie, and funnel cake fries. Meals are reasonably priced, and the food is highly praised for its delicious taste. Visitors have especially enjoyed the doughburger, onion rings, and tots, all described as exceptional. The Elvis Booth, a popular dining spot, is recommended for its nostalgic charm. The restaurant maintains a simple decor that oozes history and atmosphere, making it a must-visit for anyone exploring Tupelo. Parking can be crowded and narrow, but there is usually enough space, with some suggesting nearby church lots for convenience. The staff are very friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient, providing service that adds to the overall experience. Children are welcome, and the place is accessible, though assistance may be needed for wheelchair users. It’s also noted that the restaurant is cash only, contributing to its retro feel. Johnnie's Drive In is just around the corner from Elvis’s Birthplace, making it a perfect stop for fans of the iconic singer.
