Gibbes

Built in the late 1800’s, H. D. Gibbes & Sons began as a general merchandise store. In its early days, the store was a primary center for commerce in Learned, Mississippi and the surrounding community. Learned is now a town of fewer than 90 people. H. D. Gibbes & Sons is still open 6 days a week. Here you will find convenience store items such as gas, chips, hamburgers, cold beer, and soft drinks. The business has been in continuous operation and owned by the Gibbes family since day one. In the year 2009, H. D. Gibbes & Sons began offering steak, lamb chops, and seafood served with homemade potato and vegetable casseroles on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights. Live music, top-notch cuisine, and a unique dining experience draw customers in each weekend. “Community seating”, food served on paper plates, and paper towels for napkins are all part of the Gibbes experience. “An old store that happens to serve steaks”, is the best description for H. D. Gibbes & Sons according to Chip Gibbes. Although it has been described as a “once in a lifetime, place like no other” to guests from both near and far.
