Starkville, Mississippi thrives off of the baseball season in the spring, the graduation ceremonies in May, and the everyday business that the 20,000 students that live here bring. Since the outbreak of COVID-19, Starkville has suffered, but the heart of the town can never diminish.
1. Lost Pizza Company
I am proud to call this place my employer. By working the frontlines of the food industry, I have witnessed the change COVID has brought the area. During COVID, Lost Pizza is creating kits that you can bake your own pizza at home! It will occupy the children, if you have any, or can be a fun activity for you and whoever you are quarantined with.
2. The Little Dooey
You have some of the best BBQ you'll ever have here! Right now, they are having specials on their crawfish and I promise you will not be disappointed.
3. 929 Coffee Bar
