Some of the best potato salad I’ve had! The bread is fresh and crispy. The service was fast and attentive.

It's one of my favorite sandwich places, either in Columbus or Tupelo. I love their chicken salad on croissant. I regularly order the pick 2 with a bread bowl of soup and a chicken salad sandwich. The grapes in the sandwich are the best! Excellent customer service!

This was a fun find on a girls' trip to the area! The menu has a great selection - I think almost anyone could find something. The food was priced well and portions were reasonable to generous for the price. The food was tasty (highly recommend something with chicken!) and fresh in appearance and flavor. The only thing that seemed "out of a box" was the side pasta salad. It was okay, but not great. Service is friendly, but it's not full table-service. Place your order at the counter, fill your own drink, find your seat, and someone delivers the order. Open and inviting space with lots of room for larger parties as well as booths or small tables for smaller groups, pairs, or individuals.

Jeciana did a wonderful job and cleaned out a table specifically for us so that we could sit down. The food was great. The loaded potato is awesome and I can’t wait to eat my dessert.

I absolutely love their Veggie Pita! It is absolutely delicious and healthy! The pita bread is so soft and just like homemade. The staff is friendly and helpful. This is one of very few places that I will eat at because I know they have a clean kitchen, great management ensuring the food code is followed, great staff, and clean sanitary restrooms! And they even have an amazing rewards program.

Sweet Pepper’s customer for over 25 years! I’ve been eating here since the restaurant opened its doors - and I love it. It’s one of my favorite places to eat for many reasons - the staff are always nice, helpful, and usually even downright cheerful. The food is always fresh and tasty, the orders are always correct, and the atmosphere is chill. I’ve stopped for grab & go items during lunch, I’ve brought my family for years, and most recently have even organized group meals for the ladies in our church. I would be hard pressed to choose a favorite menu item, but some of usual choices are the California Club, the Club Wrap, the Oven Roasted Chicken Salad, a loaded potato, chips & rotel, the White BBQ Chicken Sandwich, and probably others I’m forgetting! It’s all good. But NOTHING beats their cheesecake! It’s amazing!! Keep it Pepper’s crew - the Mordecai bunch loves you!
