Walk Ons in Starkville
Where is the Walk Ons being built in Starkville? I understand it is due to open in April.
-
I can't verify 100% but from what I've heard both the plans for Gondoliers old spot and another spot on 12 near neighborhood Walmart have been passed on. I think I would have heard about a different spot if April was the timeframe
-
Thanks. I read on the Walk Ons web site that the Starkville location is to be the next one to open and in April. They better get busy moving dirt for an April opening.

The one in Hattiesburg is awful.

I've had a good experience in the one in Hattiesburg every time I've went. What's your beef with that one?

I have never ordered something first that’s they had. In 3 trips there I’ve never tasted food that I liked.

The one in Hattiesburg is decent, but it is not a place I go a lot.

The one in Bham is good..... It's all about the staff.

I have been to all of the ones in Louisiana and Hattiesburg. I rate Baton Rouge and Shreveport very high on Talent alone. Denham Springs and West Monroe come in next on talent. New Orleans is okay but Zachary,La. is better. Hattiesburg has an extremely young staff and that may affect service there. Lafayette, La. has lots of talent, but the food is up and down. May be good one time and not as good the next.

Is Walk-ons a "breastaurant"? Or do you mean actual talent at serving food? I've never been and can't really tell from your comment.

No, but the waitresses are all in cheerleader outfits that any high school would find acceptable.

Looked at the site and can find no listing for Starkville. Future locations in MS listed as:
Gulfport/Biloxi, MS
Jackson, MS
Oxford, MS
Southaven, MS
No red or blue flags on Starkville!

It should list Tupelo, Starkville, and Meridian. They may have pushed dates back due to covid.

It wasn't before the Covid. The mayor has really been heavy handed with Covid guidelines and it's hurt some places.

I have never had a dish that I didn’t enjoy at Walk Ons anywhere to include Hattiesburg. They have a lot of Cajun and seafood dishes that are as good as any chain restaurants anywhere. I would obviously prefer a local spot, which brings me to a question that I can’t figure out. Why are Starkville local bar owners not smart enough to realize that people want to watch sports in their bars? The ones in the cotton district especially have almost zero access to televisions. Starkville needs our version of Oxford’s Library in the worst way. Two Brothers is the only one that even comes close to having enough tv’s for me to sit there on a weekend and watch games all day. I end up going to Wild Wings or now I will go to Walk Ons for that reason. Most men want to watch sports when they are on tv. A bar should have that. Sorry for the rant.

I've had no trouble finding a place to watch games in Starkville. Bulldog burger, The Grill, Mug shots, two brothers, Hobies...... all those places I have watched football on a Saturday afternoon/night at the bar.

Bulldog burger has one tv (last time I was there) that’s about 45 inches big. That’s not what I’m talking about. I’m talking about 4 or 5 big TVs with all the games on. Hobies does a pretty good job with it but I was talking more in the cotton district. Some of them don’t even have TVs. I’ve been in multiple on Thursday nights that didn’t have the nfl network so I left and went to 2 brothers.

You and I would be friends. Hell, maybe we even are.
Starkville bars lack of knowledge about all things sports is mind blowing. When I go to watch a game somewhere, a good bit of the time the staff aren't even aware we are playing, and then when you ask to change the channel they don't know how to work the TV. It is infuriating.
I wish Starkville had a local bar that had good bar food, and had a good setup to watch games. Also, the staff and manager of said bar knew when big games were on and could control the TV system properly. A place like Buffalo Phil's in Tuscaloosa is kind of what I would have in mind.
For what it's worth, I heard that Walk on's was going to be on hwy 12 in front of the Hilton Garden Inn

AKA The Grill in the late 90's early 2000s
