Met with the owner, nice Guy...it was ony list of things to see
The oldest juke joint in the USA. That's right! And, if you are lucky, you may actually see the blues legend himself play guitar. A step into history, there's no place like home, there's no place like home...(Love )
I found a photo of this establishment while staying in an Airbnb in Benevento, Italy. I am pleased to see that you are still in business and hope one day to visit. Hello from the other side of the world!
My wife and I stopped in a couple weeks ago hoping to meet the legend himself, and take in the iconic Blue Front Cafe. We were lucky enough to spend a couple hours talking to Jimmy and his brother. Wow, what kind and gracious men. We drank a few beers, smiled, and laughed and talked some blues. A memory that will last forever, thank you both for spending some time with us.
Quelques accords de guitare à l’intérieur d’un “temple” hors du temps et Mr Duck Holmes qui nous reçoit et nous parle de son Grammy award : rencontre surréaliste !
Not serving food today but the place is still cool to see and was nice talking to Jimmy
Food was very affordable and good 👍.
I didn't order any food. However, the atmosphere and service was a very welcoming, friendly & true to the Mississippi juke joint culture. I loved it.
The restaurant was not open but there was a band sitting in front. Getting ready to play. I don't think anyone is working restaurant these days. It's just a landmark
Nice
Mr duck holmes ,74 headed richmond viginia next weekend jazz fest ,thanks bentonia blues man!!!!!!!
Part of me doesn’t want to give up this secret because I loved how untouched it was, but you guys deserve the love so… I felt I had finally walked in to the real life of the USA. By then, as much as I loved the 10 states I’d visited before, I couldn’t help pretending that I’d finally found what ‘murika’ was about. This was the most beautiful, welcoming, and down to earth place, shared so many jokes and history a little part of my heart will never be the same. Trust me, true American spirit here! 🇺🇸 Met the coolest people And so underestimated- I’m 36 and life has taught me, this is always place you want to be. I will be back ❤️
Had an amazing time.
I missed out on music but had a lovely time talking to staff. Sweet home feel to the place with locals hanging out. Fried chicken and potato wedges were great. Hope to come back on a day that has music
Down home blues. My family’s spot.
Good music have been going there for a long time Evan took my kids there a long time ago And duck is a really good guy
Jimmy Duck Holmes is the best.

Great place to listen to and play music, I've played there a lot, I'm a regular, oldest juke joint in Mississippi
[Friday, 25-Feb-2022 review] Stopped at the Blue Front today and had a nice chat with Jimmie, picked up a copy of Cypress Grove and a delicious to go order of chili with crackers. You’ll never go wrong at Jimmie’s place. Go.
