The Hollywood Cafe
- “Home of the Fried Dill Pickle Since 1969,” The Hollywood Cafe, an authentic roadhouse located a hop, skip and a strum from Tunica in Robinsonville, is a local institution that predates the casino boom by a good many years. Made immortal by the Marc Cohn song Walking in Memphis, which featured the restaurant in the music video, this funky venue serves up heaping plates of fried catfish and down-home entertainment for groups of up to 75. www.thehollywoodcafe.com
