Ward's - Carthage

Arrived on 5/16/24 ten minutes before closing. Ordered chili cheese fries. I guess they were out of the liquid cheese because what I got was a half melted slice of cheese on top. Fries were cold. Waited until I got home and put them in the microwave. That made it worse. Ended up being inedible. Threw them in the trash.

Only drive thru available. Sadly. ?We were traveling and love to find and eat at Ward's restaurants. We drove hours along the Natchez parkway and when we got here was shocked to only have drive thru. We still ordered but ate in the car. There was no garbage cans to dispose of our trash. The food was still great ?

In general enjoy Ward's burgers, but the ones we got here were rather pitiful. Mine was put together very poorly and was therefore extremely messy. My mother's burger was quite dry. Also, only the drive-through was open, which added to my problems with my poorly constructed burger.

The staff was ride over a biscuit and gravy order. It was done sloppy. Hopefully it closes and something else moves in. Why is the dining room still closed?

The root beer draws me in. We stopped at the Carthage Wards (my hometown) on a recent visit because of the root beer. The Ward’s Quarder we had was pretty good, too! It was drive through only—kinda disappointing—but they were still serving the the root beer. Did I mention the root beer? It might be good or something!
