In the summer of 1956, a rising star named Elvis Presley fell for the Mississippi Gulf Coast — and the Coast fell right back. This limited-time walking tour brings that story to life through the flavors of today. Make your way through the heart of the Coast, stopping at four beloved local restaurants for Elvis-inspired tastings — from meatloaf and mashed potatoes to a Velvet Elvis Waffle — while your guide shares the real history of Elvis’s time here. Created in partnership with the MS Gulf Coast National Heritage Area’s Summer of ’56: Elvis on the Coast exhibit, this is food, history, and a little rock ‘n’ roll all in one afternoon.

Itinerary
1
Government Street Grocery
We kick off with meatloaf and mashed potatoes — fitting, since Priscilla Presley once revealed Elvis ate exactly this every single night for six straight months. Your guide will set the scene for Elvis’s summer on the Coast while you dig in. Cocktail pairing: the Velvet Elvis
20 minutes
2
The Garage at Cash Alley
The dish that needs no introduction. Elvis’s all-time favorite was a peanut butter-banana-bacon sandwich, this version fried in bacon grease — rich, indulgent, and utterly Southern. Cocktail pairing: Screwdriver cocktail.
20 minutes
3
Mosaic Restaurant & Bar
A double-bacon cheeseburger is right in the King’s wheelhouse. Cheeseburgers were among Elvis’s well-documented favorites, alongside the Southern comfort foods he grew up craving. Cocktail pairing: Blue Suede Sidecar.
20 minutes

The Lady May
A sweet, decadent finish, just as Elvis would have wanted. Beyond his savory obsessions, banana pudding, icebox cake, and rich Southern desserts were beloved staples at Graceland. Cocktail pairing: The Elvis Whiskey Cold Brew.
