I've tried mostly every single restaurant in Starkville and have gotten the "normals:" you know, the cookie dough bites from Stombolis, and the Bin 612 cheese fries, but I have come to find some interesting menu items that are just as good as the regulars, if not better.

1. Bin 612 - Chicken Nachos

This appetizer is grilled chicken, red onions, jalapeños, tomatoes and the famous white cheese sauce that come on the fries all over homemade tortilla chips.

2. City Bagel- Pizza Bagel

Any bagel of your choice, with pizza sauce and cheese on top. You can add seriously anything you can think of, and it is amazing.

3. Anthony's Good Food Market - Panko Crusted Cheese Bites

Not in Starkville, but these are worth the 25-minute drive to West Point to eat. Pepper jack cheese bites that are served with marinara. Seriously the best things I have ever eaten.

4. Bulldog Burger - French Onion Soup

A perfect replacement for french fries to go along with your gourmet hamburger. Mozzarella cheese baked over the top and croutons in the middle make for a perfect side.

5. Lost Pizza Company - BBQ Nachos

Normally you would be going to a pizza joint to get pizza, but the BBQ nachos at Lost Pizza are to die for. Not on the menu, but if you ask they know exactly what to serve!

6. Starkville Cafe - Fried Corn on the Cob

Blue plate lunches at Starkville cafe are homemade and change every day, but the best day is when they have fried corn on the cob. They literally deep fry the entire thing. It's amazing.

7. Mugshots - Reagan's Peanut Butter Burger + Jelly

This burger is a patty with your choice or creamy or crunchy peanut butter and you can always add jelly to make it taste better! This burger is also unique because for every burger bought it goes towards the Reagan's Peanut Butter Project that helps provide HOPE and laughter.
