We mostly eat breakfast, but it's very very good. Only short coming is they usually have only one waitress who serve the entire restaurant. But she be on top of it as much as she can.Give them a try View all feedback.

What User doesn't like about Pappy Jimmies:
first, that's not a place to get doug's famous Brat rip sandwich. not only the roasted bark was not the classic (dougs), but it was not even in a pot; they cut it into 5 ounces of plastic bags and heat it in the microshaft before serving the gast. 4.25 is not bad for the sandwich when it is done right, but it was not.

The place could use some serious cleaning and more fish in their catfish fillets.

Nestled away from the bustling main roads, this hidden gem captivates diners with its authentic Southern cuisine, vibrant flavors, and delightful comfort foods. While the food garners praise for its taste—think exceptional pecan pie and delicious fried seafood—the service leaves room for improvement. Diners report long waits and inattentive staff, although some highlight the friendly demeanor of the servers. Whether savoring fluffy biscuits and gravy or Pappy's renowned gumbo, guests seem thrilled with the culinary offerings. Despite the mixed reviews on service and atmosphere, many agree it’s a worthwhile stop for a satisfying meal in a cozy setting.
