Government Street Grocery

I like the vibe here a lot, service was friendly from the get-go. A local recommended this spot when I asked them for one of their favorite restaurants. The server was helpful and gave great recommendations on the menu. The house-cut fries are really, really delicious. The cut, the crispness, I didn't even want to share the fries. I would go back just for the fries. Looks like they have live music on Fridays and Saturdays, I definitely plan to come here again for the food and also to check out the music. *Note, I am not a local so when I first heard the name, I legitimately thought it was a grocery store.

Super friendly staff the moment we walked in the door. Got some beers, fried pickles, veggie burger, and spicy roast beef sandwich. All dishes were cooked perfectly and tasty. I'd like my fries a bit crispier. The veggie burger was great flavor (primarily black bean). The menu is diverse. So yeah, worth a stop. We paid about $20 per person. So maybe a bit pricey but good portions. Overall, recommended.

Very good burgers. Everyone in my party ordered different items. Everyone was very pleased with their food. Also they have some of best homemade French fries, freshly cut. The place was clean and service was great.

We ate there for lunch and we really enjoyed it. The salad was good. We split the chicken pesto wrap and that was awesome! Try the coleslaw, love it!! We will be eating lunch there often since we will be opening a business downtown! It's nice to have healthy options. Service was great and so was our waitress.

Order takeout from here. Nice place with friendly people. The food was great both in taste and price.

The service here was phenomenal. I think we got one of the owners as a waitress. She definitely set me in the right direction. I ordered the BLT with chili and the chili was phenomenal, and I'm not a chilly fan, but I decided to try something different. The service was amazing. The drink descriptions were perfect. These suggestions were on point. We also got fried shrimp. Oh what a taste. The portion size was great we had leftovers for breakfast. It also reheated well. The ambiance was wonderful. Clean restrooms as well.

I’m from Texas, but work in this area often. Recently I dined at a food truck in San Antonio that served Cajun type food. He told me that if I’m ever near Ocean Springs to try the Muffuletta at Government Street Grocery. He worked in the kitchen here and said it’s where he learned to make this sandwich. The muffuletta is perfect. The bread is soft, but holds up. The olive mix is delicious. My side salad was fresh and the ranch was amazing. (Made in house). Friendly staff and a great meal.

Government Street Grocery is a cool restaurant with a unique vide. The outdoor area gives you the opportunity to enjoy the night air while engaging in the consumption of the delightful morsels. All the food on the menu pair perfectly with a frosty beverage. The descriptions of all the menu items had my mouth watering. Attempting to expand my experiences, I was pleasantly surprised by the taste of fries dipped in gravy as an appetizer. I settled on a spicy steak wrap with a side of shrimp. Be careful because the heat in the wrap will sneak up on you, but it was delicious. A must eat if you are the area. If you found this review helpful, like and share the review. Follow me too! Thanks and have a great!

A staple in coastal culture is the delicious GSG. Great diverse menu, drinks, and live music in the heart of downtown Ocean Springs. Super friendly staff, and indoor/ outdoor dining make this a local favorite. I ordered the spicy roast beef gyro and fries. Our table ordered burgers and their delicious beach bread. Highly recommend by my family, my musician family, and the majority of Ocean Springs. Crucial if visiting the city.

Best Veggie Burger around! Veggie burger and fried okra! Makes this southern girl happy! It's in downtown Ocean Springs and has been for a very long time. They are a staple there. That says a lot! On the weekends there is live entertainment! Inside and outside dining. Parking is limited but you can street park. The menu has several options of food and drinks. Cheers

So this was recommended to us as the Best Burgers and we love burgers so we took it as a challenge. She got the Mushroom Burger with Jalapeño and I got the Tijuana Burger. Neither of us were disappointed, food came out hot and even to the last bite of the burger it was warm, the fries appear like hand cut and were delicious. Would recommend!

The server charged me for the wrong tab at $56 then realized and ran my card again for my tab $46 without asking me, so I was charged for $102 for a meal. she refunded me the $56 but it will take a couple days to go back on my card. I'm very upset she didn't ask me before running my card again, I would've been fine buying another drink or side to bring my tab up to $56 but charging me twice is unacceptable. Now I don't have much money and won't be going back there again.

Delicious food, great atmosphere, refreshing beverages and very attentive waitstaff. The eclectic menu and friendly folks make this place a downtown Ocean Springs favorite.

Food was good, I loved the bacon cheeseburger. It was well seasoned and tasty. The drinks were also a fair price and the service is good. I would eat here again.

I used to live in the area for 23 years. Then we started moving around. We're currently in Pittsburgh. I've missed all the great food on the gulf shore. We hit this place because I wanted a muffuletta. The service amazing and the muffuletta hit the spot!

Extremely rude people. Such a shame because I had heard good things about it. I'll never be back.

The fries are so bad! The fries every time are dreadful! The fries taste like they were fried in old dirty oil. Just take a look at the pictures on their page here, they even look bad. Fries are supposed to be golden brown and crispy. These fries are oil logged mostly or they bring them out cold. They just can't make the fries delicious. Drunk people with the munchies who'll eat anything are here.

It was a very relaxing atmosphere. It's definitely a local's hangout. The food was great and perfect in size. Service was ok. It took a few minutes to be waited on but the food was worth the wait. We will definitely be back!

Great location and cute vibe from the street but the interior was a little tired and unkempt. Staff was friendly. Our meal was disappointing- the potato salad was mushy and my son's soup had no flavor and the sandwiches were meh. I also had a bad stomach ache after eating there. Needs a little TLC.

Love this spot. We've only been for lunch, but it's got a great vibe. The food is always good - usual favorites are the Cajun Roast Beef Wrap and the Smoked Tuna (salad and melt). Today the Chicken Pesto Wrap with perfectly fried okra was awesome - sorry the pic was taken after I started. I was too excited. Cocktails are really good and the service is always excellent. Great spot in a great town.

Really good! Super friendly place, cute vibe. Burgers were great and had good fries. Enjoyed Bloody Marys while we waited for our meal. Enjoyed our visit!

I was staying at one of the local casinos and this place came very highly recommended for their cheeseburgers. Government St itself is very cool to visit. Many locally owned shops and restaurant make walking up and down quite enjoyable. This particular restaurant is nothing fancy to look at, but those burgers are quite good! 1/3 pound with your choice of a side. I went with the potato salad and it was delicious. The staff was really kind and it made me wish it was a little later in the day so I could hang out at the bar for a bit. If you're visiting Biloxi it is definitely worth the $11 Uber over to Ocean Springs for a visit.

Great food! Great Service and Staff. My go to in OS. Very laid back casual atmosphere.

My friend and I stopped in here when we were bar hopping in ocean springs. We really liked the environment. We shared an order of the wings and had a couple of beers.

We sat at the bar for about 10 minutes while two bartenders just looked at us and proceeded to ignore us. Not sure I have had this happen before. We eventually walked out.

The food was absolutely phenomenal! Nice seating inside and outside! Food was hot and fresh!!!

Have to say this is one of my favorite places to eat of all time. If you are looking for homemade fresh food, with an amazing atmosphere this is your place. Amazing staff, great company. Stopped in here and did a low carb gyro (no bread, even though it is divine here, trying to do a thaang) Jolene took care of me, she was absolutely wonderful as the whole staff has always been. Please don't be shy stop on in and try it out!

Amazing lunch. Great burger and a muffuletta for very reasonable prices. Nice patio in the front that was very comfortable. I would go back anytime.

Cool little spot on Main Street. Rode our bikes from Mobile! Love the atmosphere! Great food and I love their fries!

We at here several days during CYC. Very good service and food is excellent. We will be back.

Burgers were good and fries were hand cut and delicious. Beer was cold and the patio nice. Casual cool place with friendly staff right in the middle of Ocean Springs.

Great vibe! The experience completely met my expectations and the vibe was great. There were so many great options for food and we got the chicken wings; they were cooked perfectly and they came out steaming and you could tell they were fresh. Would definitely come back!

Place is cool service was great and friendly but the food was okay nothing to rave about.

The food was good except for the gravy fries. They had so much salt you couldn't eat them. I asked for another organs the waitress never brought them out. So I told her to just take them off of my bill.

A very low key atmosphere with a simple menu. Our waitress was friendly and helpful but service was fairly slow especially considering it wasn't very busy. I was disappointed that the only "soup" of the day was chili. Overall a tasty meal. Beach bread 5/5 surprisingly delicious. I'm so glad we ordered after our waitress highly recommended Wings 5/5 juicy, tender, and flavorful Muffuletta 3/5 too sour/tart for my preference and overpoweringly salty Potato salad 4/5 flavorful and creamy but would've loved less large pieces of potato Tijuana burger 4/5 juicy and delicious! My one critique is that the burgers are smash burger style so they can only be cooked medium well Fries 4/5 nearly identical to five guys fries so they are flavorful and on the softer/soggier side rather than crunchy Chicken Sandwich 4/5 juicy and tender chicken but I would've loved some more interesting toppings to make this a more standout entree

Government Street Grocery is a strong contender for best burger on the MS Gulf Coast. GSG is located on Government Street, but is not a grocery store. It is a bar that serves food which means kids are welcome during daylight hours. I ended up here a few weekends ago with my kids and I really liked it. Because it is a bar, you should expect some bar characters when you visit. While we were there the crowd was relatively tame and all we got to hear was a couple of women complaining about their husbands. One thing I was pretty impressed by is that no one was smoking inside. I'm not sure if that was a rule, or the smokers were considerate of others, but everyone walked outside to smoke. That made the meal much more enjoyable. Speaking of the meal, I stuck to the basics. That means an appetizer of their grocery fries and a Tijuana Burger as my entree. The fries were chili cheese with sour cream and jalapenos. If you are a fan of fries with stuff, you need to try these. The fries were hand cut and topped with what seemed to be homemade chili. Even if it came from a can, it was very good. The Tijuana Burger was delicious. The hand formed patty of around 1/2 pound was cooked a perfect medium, seasoned well, and had that juicy burger flavor I crave. I've tried darn near every burger on the coast and this one ranks among the best. I'd have to try it again before crowning it the best, but it is damn good. If you are a fan of bar burgers, you need to try this one. Service was friendly and prices were reasonable. Parking was in a private lot adjacent to the building and was very convenient. If you find yourself in Ocean Springs and are craving a great burger, GSG should most definitely be on your list.

This place is nice and quaint! They are dog friendly! The service was pretty slow the night we went but the food and drinks made up for it!

If you ever visit Biloxi for the beach and casinos, but want an area to walk and here live music, sample local fare, and enjoy the scenery then Downtown Ocean Springs( just across the bridge from Biloxi) is a great place to visit!

Came for a quick bite since I haven't had gotten anything to eat all day from my volunteer event. Anyways I always drive by this place almost every week when I go around ocean springs and play Pokémon. Decided to come try out it since I see a lot of people coming in and out of this place. Wasn't too busy when I came. Was able to get a table anywhere I wanted. Also they have outdoor seating if you wanna eat outside and enjoy the hot sunny day! Ordered chicken wings which was perfectly cooked and juicy inside! Came with celery sticks and your preferred dressings. Chicken was pretty good size as well. You can ordered from 6 or 12 pieces. I got the 6 pieces cuz I still had the grocery burger coming. Burger came with fries and a pickle. Fries weren't crispy but good texture. I couldn't tell if I like the fries or not but I couldn't stop eating it. Burger was okay for me. Wasn't really anything there to wow me but it was good size and bacon was good. Wish they held back a little on the mustard cuz that was mostly what I tasted. Full bar inside, daily food specials and great service. And they have live bands but I'm not sure when I just saw it on their wall somewhere.

Great hang out place for a group of friends to eat, drink & on the weekends catch a local band. It's not fancy but very relaxing and reasonably priced. Good sandwiches, wings & great gravy fries!

Love the food and the friendly service. Always recommend this place to people who aren't locals

Stopped in for a quick bite while we were in the area. Chicken fried steak sandwich was hot and crispy - gravy with the fries were a hit. Will be back next we are back in town.

Sat down outside to have lunch and drinks. Went inside to use the woman's bathroom. No working water, toilet was full of "everything". Asked the bartender if they had a working bathroom. Got an attitude, and was told if they work, they work.. if they don't, then they don't. Needless to say, we went down the road and a great lunch and drinks at the Taco Bar.

We stopped in here during the art festival this past weekend. My husband had a spicy roast beef wrap with fries. I had a gyro with coleslaw. Both dishes were delicious. Staff was shorthanded but there was a sign outside letting everyone know. Pet-friendly also. Covered outside seating with ceiling fans came in handy when it started to rain and as the rain stopped and the air became muggy. Nice little low-key spot.

A nice funky little spot for American Cuisine, Craft Beer and solid Cocktails. We spent the afternoon on the Patio which was very popular. The service was friendly and inviting, the food quality good and atmosphere chill. Definitely worth a try and on our list of places to return to in Ocean Springs.

Best Bloody Mary in town...thanks Christine!! Delicious shrimp basket! Friendly service, fresh seafood great laidback atmosphere all in a quaint little seaside town.

We've been here for more than 45 minutes and just got the appetizer. We were so looking forward to eating here, but any good vibes have been crushed by the wait.

Great food and even better service. We loved this place. Definitely will be back soon!!

Cannot attest to the rest of the menu as in two visits I couldn't get past the warm, toasty muffuletta. Having had a muffuletta at the famous Central Grocery in NOLA, the sandwich at Government Street is much better because it is warm and the cheese is slightly melted. Someday I will try something else but for right now I'm content.

I love the burgers here. Probably one of the best burger places in ocean springs. It's one of those places you go and have fun with your friends.

The food was okay, however the staff told us they were not allowed to hand out a bandaid? I guess it's acceptable to get blood on the bar top??

On New years Eve my family was in town for the holidays and we decided to visit the downtown ocean springs area for the holiday affairs. Waiter was a tall caucasian male with a bald spot at the top and a thick mustache on the sLinder side. He was very loud and rude because We didn't tip. There was so many people there and we waited so long and was sitted in the back of the restaurant area by their break rooms. Spider webs everywhere and extention cords were everywhere. Service was poor and unprofessional. He yelled out that we stiffed him and didnt tip and drew the attention of others dining in. we spent over $100.00 with the business and for him to try an humiliate us for not tipping and received poor service is totally unexceptional. I will report this to the health department and keep my review of this bias offense current so that this business could be recognized for their service.

This place is a gem! We came here for lunch and we're immediately directed to seat ourselves. We were promptly greeted by our waitress, who was great. Within what seemed liked seconds of putting in our order, we got our food. Highly recommend this place if you're in the area. Simple menu with some great food. Amazing wait staff and a modest, yet satiating beer selection.

Well that's a first for me. They are hosting a legalize marajuana drive some interesting smoke in the outside patio The food was good big portion on shrimp and the chicken wrap was excellent. Interesting place worth a visit.

Best shrimp Po-boy in OS! Excellent beer selection and I love that I can sit on their patio with my dog. Instead of fries... I recommend the fried okra! Staff is attentive... can get really busy during festivals and events.

Stop here at around 1:30 PM for a quick bite, was a lovely crowd and packed. Sat at the bar had the Nacho's appetizer was fast and full of flavor. Wife had the brown grave and fries with a salad was awesome! I had the gyro and fried okra was surprised at the taste was a great surprise. The staff was spot on Mr. Eric if I'm right with his name was behind the bar with a lovely lady helping. Those 2 ran the front end like no ones business never stoped and always with a smile on. Will be back and next time I will enjoy the pour, because it was show just to see this guy work. Thanks for the good food and time we will be back! Bobby B

Love this place! Burgers are the best and beach bread is to die for! Best burgers in town!
