- Willora "Peaches" Ephram opened Peaches Restaurant on Farish Street in 1961. During the Civil Rights Movement, Peaches Restaurant served as a safe have for activists and Peaches herself provided Freedom Riders with food despite the personal risk. Since then, Peaches has grown into a soul food mecca visited by the likes of Muhammed Ali and President Barak Obama.

there are special places in Heaven for folks like Ms Peaches. maybe i will have the pleasure of meeting her one day. RIP MS PEACHES 🙏
Thank you ms. Peaches for not leaving your community it’s very important that we support our own thank you may you be bless.🌺
My father was from Laurel Mississippi and he told me the thing "Work so you don't have to ask nobody for nothing" and I know your food is on hit! God bless you and may you prosper
learn to work so you don't have to beg...great advice
You must be white
@@shirleyconerly2724 😂 Them white people don’t know nothing about that good cooking
@@queencastlepodcast6828 big facts😂😂😂😂😂
I tell my kids that to this very day
I. LIKE THAT ONE TOO.
It's such a blessing 🙌🏽 to see owners first off who have their own business but it's especially a Joy when they've been in business for over 30 years!! Ms.Peaches started back when our society was racially divided and by her cooking Soul Food and Good Home Cooking it keep our Community together!! I do wish her all the very best and much success!!💜💜
That's beautiful.I miss places like these you never forget the meals they made for you.
Miss. Peaches is so beautiful!! From the inside out!!
Now this is where they should've filmed the tv show "in the heat of the night" instead of in the state of Georgia because Greenville Mississippi has a much more real down to Earth Southern atmosphere!!!
...it was sparta ...mississippi...

It was actually filmed in Illinois
Now that's the kind of restaurant I'd eat at every day! The food is home made, from scratch, like it should be.
Type - 2 diabetes meals
This the kind of History I want my Children to learn about
I’ve always wanted to try authentic American soul food. This place looks great.
Fried chicken, fried okra, biscuits and gravy, collard greens, catfish and cornbread are mainstays of Mississippi cuisine!.
Location, location, location!!!. Location is everything.
Damn! This place sounds so good! I hate when Mom and Pop eateries close! Damn corporate restaurants trying to take over. Maybe not in this case. But it's still happening to other home town restaurants.
...'''BiG-Momma''s...still OPEN...in TURNER's...Station...Baltimore'...All NIGHT LONG ...WESTPORT...and...CHERRY-HiLL-...MT.-Winans...''DRUG-DEALERS'''...say Keep it OPEN...crazy-JOHN''s Up on EASTSIDE''...POLLOCK...Johnny's...Up on ...WESTSIDE...all Night Long''...Like ...Bronx-New-York...and ...MANHATTEN''...City...that ...never...sleeps...
If you want mom and pop restaurants you have to go there and eat. Not hard just go and eat there . Stop mourning the passing of old places like this. Go eat there. Simple.
This is WHY it is so important that young and old, keep legacies like hers alive. The formula is very simple: patronize ALL of our businesses.
So erotic when that happens
We need more places like this ,good home cooking and God fearing folks,God Bless You All
Peaches the southwest Restaurant, looks like down home togetherness love
Peaches is one classy lady. She makes me think of my Gran-mama in Montreal.
Now that’s a real cook that don’t use recipe just by taste and by feel
Wat a strong and beautiful lady God bless
So sad that it closed. Such a piece of history
krissjay AWW THATS SAD TO HEAR..I NO IT WAS GOOD TO
krissjay why it closed up?
...WELL SO MUCH ...for that ,..What about ...Tupilo''...where Richard-Pryor-...Once...roamed...Richland ...Where i Once ...roamed...They Refused to Serve ...my blackass...

This is what I love about these friendly and loving places to eat, a very wise woman, yes work and do for your self.
Two truths about restaurants like this. You'll always be satisfied and want to come back for more.
Thank you for sharing your video, I have never been to Mississippi, and I hope that one I get to visit, and to eat the good ole soul food.
It’s peace and quiet in Mississippi. I so love it and planning to retire.
Get your stomach ready cause there are tons of mom and pop eats still around. May have to drive through the woods but they're still hanging around.

Hope to see you soon Mrs. Peaches.
Wonderful story about how she started! my great grandmother cooked without recipes as well, my grandmother would watch her and write down what she was doing so she could remember we have some wonderful family recipes we’ve been able to pass down from her. does anyone know how the restaurant is doing through this pandemic?
Down home cooking by a down home beautiful lady.........true Americana, lets hope this spirit never goes away.
Mamma Peaches you have it going on.
God Bless you!!! I wanna eat at your establishment.

Peaches is such a beautiful lady
Thanku for sharing your story. It's always good to hear your people doing & being successful and caring for other's. May you have many more yrs of happiness & success. GOD bless you and yours. Peace
I hope one day I will come to America and try its local products. Greetings from GREECE 🇬🇷
Some local friends brought us there when my band was on tour and played in Jackson. They told us it would be the best fried chicken we had ever tasted. It indeed more than lived up to the billing. Peaches was not there, but Roderick was and he asked if we had a CD that he could buy for their jukebox! My understanding is that they did indeed put our CD in their jukebox.
I'm sorry to hear that Peaches has died and the restaurant is closed. I'll always remember my meal there.
Yes ma'am that's the year I was born September 1961. Blessings for this family 🙏❤️
I can only imagine how nice the food is in there but it sure looks good, we have some really good Caribbean food outlets in the UK but this looks so nice.
Too bad this place is no longer around. Would have loved to visit here, the atmosphere and history is so amazing❤️
Praise God for Ms. Peaches and all that share in her vision. The blessed one is the giver.
GAGUT greetings to you all.

This was filmed 21 years ago (I'm writing from 2023}. This place and the surrounding businesses are no more and the whole street looks like a scene from a dystopian end-of-the-world movie. God bless America.
Delicious food Love
Wow is this place still open?
