Description

In a 1950s‑style diner in Corinth, MS, this tiny, cash‑only spot is known for its iconic Slugburger—affordable, customizable and beloved by many locals. Patrons praise the nostalgic decor, friendly counter service and bargain prices; detractors cite inconsistent food quality, soggy fries, mystery‑meat patties and unreliable phone orders. With limited seating and no card payments, it’s a nostalgic roadside must‑try for adventurous road‑trippers and budget diners who come prepared with cash and modest expectations.

Tasteless burgers, my expectations were set way to high by advertisement. Price was good though.Wheelchair accessibility: It had a wheelchair ramp

Heard about this place for years living in MS. Finally went to Corinth today and ordered 4 double patty slugs…well the locals like them that’s the only positive I can say. Me and the wife hated them! Pork patties? It was more like eating unflavored cardboard. We literally looked at each other and tried to reverse engineer what it is we were eating. Maybe pork, maybe a little chicken, definitely FLOUR to thicken a lot. Pass and pass HARD on this place. There’s a lot of old local burger places in MS. This isn’t one I’d EVER go to again.

Discovered this little eatery on our weekend adventure to Huntsville. We ordered slugburgers, shaved beef sandwich, fries and drinks. The price was awesome and food wad good. A few of our fries were frozen and the rest were just kind grease soaked and semi-mushy. Other than that, we would try again. FYI. This place is cash only!!!!

Honestly, I wouldn’t have even given this place one star. I’m sorry but their “slugburger” was one of the most disgusting things I have ever had. This was my first time in Corinth and my husband and I decided to try the famous slugburgers everyone had told us about and this was not it! I was fully expecting a delicious hamburger, but what we got… I am not even sure what the heck it was! A fried MYSTERY MEAT. I actually made the mistake of thinking it may have been a chicken patty until I bit into it and started to gag. When I told my friends about it they reassured me that what I had was definitely not a true slugburger. Honestly I dont recommend this place unless you truly have no other option. I get the feeling that a group of 20 or so older folks is what keeps this place open. If you are looking for a true slugburger go somewhere else in town. Also another thing is they only take cash which is a real inconvenience.
