We ate Sunday brunch in the Library room of the Anchuca on our last day in Vicksburg. The Library is in the main house, among all the historic furniture and decor. The other seating option was in the Cafe, which also appeared nice, but not quite the same experience. Anyway, I'm glad we chose the Library, because the atmosphere and the service was 5 star, no question about it. The only reason I deducted 1 star was that the brunch menu was really more of a lunch menu, not an egg in sight. But it did come with 3 courses" salad, main and desert (my peach cobbler and ice cream was yum!). I ended up getting the meatloaf, with creamed spinach and mashed potatoes. Food was very good, but it was just too heavy for 11 am, and I ended up taking most of it to go. They did have shrimp and grits, which I regret not ordering, but I was disappointed that there was not more breakfast-leaning options, like eggs benedict, or hangtown fry, or a breakfast hash. To me, brunch indicates a mix of both breakfast and lunch options. Anyway, from what I understand, the brunch menu is not posted online because it changes frequently, so maybe I just went on a day where nothing on the menu really appealed to me. I will try again another day, as long as I can dine in...
Read moreHad an evening dinner on the first night of our stay. Food, atmosphere, and service were great. It took a little while to get our meal and there was only one person serving the dining room doing the best she could. Asparagus bisque, Shrimp and Grits, and Chicken picatta were excellent. We also order a flight of white wine. Great selection. Peach cobbler with vanilla bean was very good as well.
Breakfast came with our stay. It was served in the same dining room and there was a video shown that explained the history of Anchuca. Breakfast plate was grits, eggs, bacon, fresh fruit, biscuit with jams and butter. Very good food...
