This is a classic Delta eatery. It's a real place where you can have a great meal and honest conversation. Try catfish and ribs.

Chef Ronnie opened early for us since we were passing through and were looking for some good ribs on a Sunday afternoon on or way back to Little Rock. Very rustic Authentic Blues Cafe with lots of charm and a warm welcome from Ronnie and his wife Betty. The ribs and catfish were excellent as well as the baked beans, coleslaw and fried okra! Murals on the side of the building record a interesting history from a local music teacher who would often sit in with some of the greats from the blues world when they needed an extra or missing instrument.

What a great experience! Started the day at the BB King Museum and ended up at the Blues Corner Cafe. Could not have felt more welcome as Ronnie greeted us at the door. Our group was the only one in the place so after he prepared our food we asked Ronnie to sit with us and we were treated to a local history lesson. The only thing that topped the experience was the food. Best potato salad I've had since my mother passed away. And the ribs were great! Don't judge by appearances, you may miss an amazing memory.

Awesome southern food. Love the catfish and rib plates. The green salad was fantastic. Fried okra was lightly breaded which really brought out the taste of the okra. The potato salad was great too. Friendly owner!

Prices are low and food is amazing Three of us ate and the bill was less than fifteen dollars. The blackened bologna sandwich is an almost inch thick slice of meat with all the fixings you want. The fried green tomatoes are great. My son had barbecue ribs and said they were also good. The baked beans were really good. Service was good and fast. The atmosphere is Delta Blues. We will definitely be returning often.

Went here for lunch trying to find some soul food in the heart of Blues Country. I had the crawfish hush puppies as an appetizer. They were hot. And very good. I ordered the catfish plate. I was a little disappointed with sides they offered, fries and mayo slaw. I was really hoping for some collards, beans and a slice of onion. Other than that the food was great along with the decor.

We visited Ronnie and Betty's fabulous cafe on a drive up from New Orleans through the Delta to Memphis. Walking in the door, it was clear that we were in an authentic place - no frills, just articles from the local newspaper on the walls with stories of various sports teams from Gentry High School. A pool table dominated the space. Betty took our order, and shortly, her husband, Ronnie, came in. We ordered a rib platter - as good as any you'll find in Memphis - and when it arrived, we chatted with Ronnie and Betty for the next half hour. They are family friends of BB King, and filled us in on the role the Blues have played in the Delta, and in Indianola in particular. We will never forget this conversation, or this warm and lovely couple. Don't miss this place!
