MeMe’s Diner/Facebook How good do these loaded shrimp fries look? Contrary to what the name suggests, MeMe’s has a dine-option. This has nothing to do with shrimp, but it’s important: MeMe’s recently added soft-serve ice cream. MeMe’s Diner KilnMeMe’s Grab & Go Diner, 17330 MS-603, Kiln, MS 39556, USA

At least two of these four restaurants are open on a given day, but each is closed at least one day a week. So be sure to check the hours of operation of each place before you go!
