The Lady May

The atmosphere here is fantastic! It reminds me a lot of being back home in Louisiana. It's our first time here, and it won't be our last! These are the best burgers I've had anywhere on the coast, hands down. Outdoor dining was great! We must return to try the drinks; the bar looks amazing, from the relaxing French water display to the lovely garden walls. The Beacon Jam Burger 🍔 should be called the Hot Damn Burger or "The OMG Burger" 10 out of 10

Very very cool brunch spot in downtown ocean springs. Definitely get the biscuits with all their jellies! The "boards" are excellent. Snack board and brunch board are both my go to. Plenty of sweet and savory on both. You'll feel like you're royalty when you're eating either! It's literally fit for a Prince or Princess! Excellent service even though they're always super busy. Burgers are good too.

Stopped by The Lady May for dinner with my family over the weekend. We were able to get seated quickly inside, and we were happy to escape the heat! Our waitress was very nice and helpful. We each ordered something different off of the menu. I tried the Santa Margarita flatbread. I was so happy to find somewhere that offered Margarita style pizza. Their shoe string fries were some of the skinniest fries I’ve ever had! I love that the front of the restaurant has merchandise available to buy like their spreads, pickles, and hot sauces! The only complaint that I had was that the hostess was a bit rude to us when we first arrived and as we were leaving. It was busy, so I imagine she was feeling stressed. Other than that, no complaints!

I liked that they have outdoor and indoor seating. We were sat outside, it was not too hot but had a little breeze. We started with the Mango Sriracha Hummus, it was so good. I had the White BBQ chicken sandwich, also very good. They stay pretty busy throughout the day, but still had good service.

The food was delicious. Everyone was happy with their dish. The staff were so friendly. We sat outside, and the live music was excellent. This is such a great place to go. I definitely recommend it. And I will most definitely go back when I return to the area.

Friends told me to try this local hot spot for years! I kept just… not? Until now 😌 I adored the elegant yet upbeat unique decor, and staff was very friendly and helpful! Drinks were incredible – many named after classic country music stars and other legendary southern icons 🤩 I loved the crawfish flatbread, super flavorful. Avocado hummus toast sandwich was great too, though I’d suggest these same toppings for a wrap, gyro, or pita pocket, to make enjoying all the flavors a bit less messy. I forgot the name of my cocktail, but it had an amazing house made blueberry puree, and bartender Stowers whipped up a new drink (on the spot?) that was bourbon, orange, and something else fabulous – 11/10! Vibes, food, service all immaculate.

Absolutely amazing. The crab cakes were to die for! Very friendly servers and overall wonderful experience. After trying the pickled okra, I had to buy a jar to bring home!

I absolutely adore Lady May! Their food is always amazing and super consistent! I’ve never had a bad experience. The service is stellar, even if they are busy and you can’t go wrong dining inside or out.
I’ve almost tried everything on the menu but some of my favorites has to be the biscuits, the white bbq chicken ANYTHING, and the hot ham and cheese.

I also think it’s precious that they serve on mismatched China. Between that and the fresh, made from scratch comfort food, it makes me feel like I’m at my grandmas house. 🥹

This place is one of my top recommendations when people ask where to go.

Great atmosphere and great service make this place 5 stars in my book. Meat and cheese board was awesome and flatbread was great too. Our server Monroe was wonderful. Will be coming back for sure!

Exactly what we were looking for! The biscuits are scrumptious, and the homemade jams are wonderful! The open air bar brought just the right amount of breeze into the dining room where we could hear the live music from the courtyard. Shelby was welcoming and friendly. What a gem of a place!

There are lots of interesting places to eat and drink in Ocean Springs but the Lady May is one of the best. The atmosphere is amazing, especially the courtyard seating. The food was very good. Thinnest shoestring fries I have ever had. Burger was really juicy and very flavorful. We really enjoyed eating there.

We stopped in for the first time as we were traveling from Texas to Florida. Recommended by our AirBNB host. Energetic, casual dining, outside patio had an "open mic" session. Fun place, great food. On our return trip, we stopped just for dessert, fried bread pudding!! 😋

Lady May makes a wide variety of cooking sauces even tallow cream for body lotion, scented and unscented. We also bought their vanilla, hand crafted at their establishment. Put this on your list if you are close to Ocean Springs.

I came in because I was in the area and getting kind of hangry. After some discussion between the hostesses, I was seated at a booth. I had made up my mind on a breakfast plate of eggs, bacon and a biscuit when the waitress mentioned house battered corn dogs with fries, and I quickly changed my mind. It was freaking amazing. My tea had so many refills, it was amazing. Reasonable prices, very clean and very delicious. I am glad I stopped here.

Vacationing & this place came highly recommended by family who live near. I have to say that we were shocked at how plentiful and wonderful the food was. My salad was tasty and endless. I really could have shared with 3 people. I think the owner of this place has been very blessed. The staff were fast and friendly as well. I will definitely come back soon.

Make sure you eat here on your trip. It is a treasure. The food is amazing and delicious. My salad was big enough for two people and the flavors were the perfect blend. The people I was with enjoyed their food also. Make sure to order the fried bread pudding. It is a favorite. You can’t go wrong with any of their foods.

It was our first time visiting and I must say EVERYTHING was GREAT. 😋 The McDonald Burger & Braised Beef sandwich came out HOT 🔥 and they were so good. Only thing was that it was a little warm inside the restaurant but manageable.
Toni, our server, was so kind and warming. Very professional. Thank you again for the great experience. Definitely returning.

Excellent food and atmosphere! The Shank & Eggs were AMAZING and the eggs were perfectly cooked as requested. Our scrambled eggs were wonderfully seasoned, the bacon was a good mix between crispy and chewy, and the fruit salad was delightful, especially as it had no apples.

The biscuits were really good and remind me of the cheddar biscuits from Red Lobster.

If you need something to go with your biscuit or toast the strawberry lemon jelly is a MUST HAVE. Sweet strawberry flavor with a punch of bright lemon! I really wanted to get a jar of it to go!

We will be coming back the next time we visit town.

Fun place for drinks and appetizers. Also a cute small store with a few things for sale. The appetizer board had yummy, tasty food. Drinks were nice.

We had the best brunch here this morning! We sat outside and it was perfect weather for the time of the morning. The portion sizes are perfect and the food tasted phenomenal. You have to order a biscuit. Our server, Brannon, was able to help us through the menu and took good care of us while we were there! Highly recommend if in Ocean Springs!!

We enjoyed our evening at Lady Mays so very much! The atmosphere was amazing, the music was perfect, and the food was some of the best food I have eaten in a long time!
Julia was our waitress and she was fantastic! She answered questions about the menu and gave us the best recommendations on what now, is some of our favorite items on the menu. We went for the Honey menu and was not disappointed. We can’t wait to go back with the rest of our family so they can experience all that we did!
