Mississippi restaurants come in all sorts of shapes and sizes – from teeny tiny dining spots to enormous ones, like Berry’s in Florence. Though located in a small town, the restaurant is anything but a hidden gem, and that’s because it’s housed in a huge barn, making it nearly impossible to miss. Much more than a unique exterior, Berry’s serves up some of the best catfish and seafood in the state. Take a look:

Drive along Highway 49 in Florence, and you’ll most likely notice a gigantic barn, otherwise known as Berry’s. And if the unique building doesn’t get your attention, the 110’ metal cross that stands out front surely will.

With a parking lot that’s often full, it’s pretty obvious Berry’s serves up some great grub.

And that great grub includes the “Best US Farm Raised Catfish in Mississippi.” The tasty fish also earned the eatery the title of “Mississippi’s Best Catfish Restaurant” in 2014.
