Their fish coating is light and flavorful. I don't think there is any fresher seafood than what they serve here. They don't open for dinner on Monday, but they have all you can eat fish or boiled shrimp on Tuesday and Friday. Something that worth a trip.

The only thing better than the waitstaff is the food! I had an excellent experience. Cannot recommend this place highly enough.

So my girlfriends and I headed to MS Gulf Coast for a fun weekend. We drove til almost 2 before we realized we talked right through lunch! As we rolled through Wiggins, we happened across The Whistle Stop on Magnolia Dr. Walked in and even at that hour, parking lot and many tables full. We all got the catfish special- four generous fillets, three hush puppies, and two sides. Our friendly server, Kelli, surprised us with a complimentary order of fried green tomatoes. They were quite tasty, but the sauce is-- well, I'd skip the sauce. The plates came out, overflowing with food. The fish was really good. I mean really good. The green beans, although canned, were tasty. Please. Do not bother with the rice & gravy. It's pretty awful. The slaw was absolutely delicious. Hush puppies were solid. All in all, I'd definitely stop there again. Am eager to try other stuff on menu. Also- worth mentioning, you can tell a lot by the people dining in a place. Whistle Stop had a great range of ages and ethnicities, which made me happy.

Quaint little restaurant right in the middle of Wiggins. Clean and inviting, and super nice staff. I was there at 230 pm, and there were four or five tables full of folks, with even more taking orders to-go...means they are doing something right! Ordered the Texas Cheeseburger with bacon! One of the best burgers I've had for sure. The sweet jalapeño cheddar bun really kicked it up a notch! The sweet onion hushpuppies were delicious, especially when dipped in their signature Whistle Stop sauce! You need to try this place...and I'll be back to try something else.

Visited this little restaurant on a Saturday. The staff was very friendly, the restaurant was mostly clean, and the food was plentiful and good. The prices were a little high, but these days everything is expensive. I would eat there again if I am ever in the area.

Excellent choice for lunch. Filled me up and batter was perfectly done. Highly recommend if you are ever in the area.

When I found out that there was a Whistle Stop Cafe in Wiggins, I was really excited to plan my supper there while I was in town on business. However, I soon found out that this place was nowhere near the quality of the original WSC in Irondale, AL. I was expecting a huge buffet of country cookin' (like in Irondale) but a majority of the menu here was seafood. Still, I needed my fix of good country fare so I ordered the country fried steak with white gravy, green beans and mashed potatoes. The food was just so-so. I was told by my waitress that the steak was pre-battered frozen. The green beans had hardly any seasoning and the mashed potatoes were not homemade. One postitive- the waitress I had was very attentive and always there to keep my tea glass full.

It was good the first couple of times I ate there... As the years went by and the more I ate there the more things would go wrong I would get frozen tartar sauce on my to go meals, the vegetables are never hot if you get something fried it's good because it comes out hot they do it fresh but for some reason the vegetables are never hot ... And I ate there three days ago I have came to the conclusion I will no longer be a patron here

Have you ever woken up confused, deserted, and alone in the middle of an intensely humid national forest in southern Mississippi? If so, then you will be able to relate to the intense, undeniable craving for a chicken salad croissant that accompanies such a circumstance. Fortunately the Whistle Stop in nearby town, Wiggins, was able to satiate my specific culinary needs. The croissant I ordered was sufficiently greasy and came with a side of fried green tomatoes, which I always thought were a myth! Crazy!!!!! I guess you can fry just about anything these days.... I also encountered packets of preserved lemon juice for the first time. They made my iced tea taste faintly of Lysol, but not in a bad way. If anything, it made my mouth feel extra clean and fresh. The waitress was friendly and seemed accustomed to guiding clueless out-of-towners like myself. The restaurant décor could be described as "ocean kitsch" with notable pieces including but not limited to a shark shaped cookie/tip jar that roars menacingly upon being opened. It made leaving a tip a little bit intimidating, but well worth it. Though the likelihood of me returning to Wiggins, MS is slim (my boss doesn't offer many vacation days) I now have memories to last a lifetime. Thanks, Whistle Stop.

Great place. Service wonderful, staff very friendly and food was great. Real value. I had fried shrimp. It was fresh and properly cooked. More than I could eat for only ten bucks. I will be a regular.

I ate here on Friday, I called ahead and was told they were open until 9pm. Wish I could give it 2-1/2 stars. This place seems to do a bustling business which seemed to be a good sign. The have a poster of the US, when you come into the restaurant, and invite people from outside the area to put a pin in the map. I put in a pin while another couple entered the restaurant behind me. First thing I was asked as a entered was if I had a take-out order, they seem to have a decent to-go business. When I indicated that I was dining solo, the hostess directed me to the small table in the back right hand side and indicated a waitress would be right with me. I had a seat and a moment or two later noticed the couple who entered behind me being escourted to a table right next to me. My waitress was polite, cheerful and seemed efficient. I ordered the fish platter with baked beans & potato salad (see uploaded picture).The fish had a nice batter and was soft and flaky. I liked it. However, the baked beans tasted like they came out of the can and the potato salad was just blah. I was disappointed and wished I'd tried the fried green tomatoes which are mentioned by a previous reviewer and were highlighted on the menu as being their specialty. The available parking is a bit small around the storefront but there appeared to be a lot on the side for overflow. It was raining so I didn't spend too much time scoping the parking situation. The building is white with red trim and overall was bright and inviting. I'll have to be up in the area again in a couple of months but I'm still not sure if I'll go back. Given the other two positive reviews I may give it another shot.

Amazing fried green tomatoes. I bring all my friends from out of town here and they have all loved it.

My first experience here was walking in and placing a to-go order. Being an Asian American, I always feel a little out of place in rural Mississippi, but was pleasantly surprised by how friendly the lady behind the counter was who took my order and by one of the locals who held the door open for me when I walked out with my food. I had the lunch special with meatloaf and mashed potatoes and gravy. Not bad, but nothing special. A few nights later I stopped in hoping to get their all-you-can-eat boiled shrimp dinner. It was only 7pm, but they had already sold out! The waitress advised me to arrive earlier next time as this is very typical. I decided on the catfish and oyster dinner with potato salad, coleslaw and a roll. Delicious! The catfish and oysters were hot out of the fryer and the coleslaw and potato salad were nice and chilled. Not that there is anything hard about deep frying seafood and scooping salad out of the refrigerator, but it's always a huge dissapointment to order a deep fried dish and get it after it's been sitting around for awhile. It really seemed like my plate had been prepared with love. The breading on the oysters and catfish was a bit spicy, which made it more interesting than just plain breading and the fish itself was tender and moist inside. Just like my previous experience, the service was very friendly. The Whistle Stop is open for lunch most days, but for dinner only on certain nights. If you ever find yourself in Wiggins, the Whistle Stop is a safe bet!
