"Tom’s Soda Shop is in a super cute historic downtown area of Baldwyn, MS and is a must place to stop if you’re in North MS. I had the #3 Smash Burger with Tom’s homemade smash sauce and seasoned fries with ranch. The server was really friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was so cool and retro with all the old memorabilia on the walls that I checked out while waiting on my food!"
