Usually this drive-in on the north side of Hwy 24/48 in Liberty (I don’t know it’s name) is covered up with cars and people when I pass through, but one time last summer, I happened to come through early in the morning and did a uey and screeched in to grab my shots. The blue sky and sun were icing on the cake. I’ve never had a shake here, but look at the menu board and the trophies in the window and the usual crowd in the parking lot and tell me it doesn’t have the best shakes in Amite County.

Great roadside architecture! The covered area on the left was an add-on. As for the prominent loudspeaker: “Number 6, your shake is ready!”

Yes, I can see the need for the covered seating, but isn’t it a shame it’s not executed with the same panache as the original.

Lord love Liberty but I don’t know if panache is in the local vocabulary! My best friend from college is from there and still lives there. It’s a neat little place.

I think it was called the Liberty Bell when my wife and I married, in 1970. Her mom and step-dad ran it at the time. And her dad, brother and step-mother owned one in Brookhaven, MS called the Star Drive Inn.

Very good catfish boxes. I had the pleasure of eating there three or four times over the past two months. Food is good. But I do still miss Mr. Jack Cupit’s (former owner) black pepper hamburgers. Yum Yum.

Beat cheeseburgers and ‘ Curly Q’s ‘! We just not forget those! The chocolate and vanilla swirl ice cream: whether ordered ina cone or cup, is the best .
My maws maw brought all her grand babies there, early in our lives. In the 60’s.
This place is a legend, if it’s iwn.
Guy, from the food network needs to visit this place.
The owners need to contact the Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, with Guy Feri. He would come visit in s heart beat.
