What's New? There's a new bakery in Hattiesburg that has everybody talking and it's a place you must go and see for yourself. Nearly on the University of Southern Mississippi Campus in the Mid-Town Community, visitors can find a bit of joy from Loblolly Bakery, located on Hardy Street across from Trustmark Bank.
This new restaurant is the latest edition to the Robert Saint John collection of restaurants, including Midtowner, Ed's Burgers, Crescent City, and many more. The restaurant has a vibrant new feel with bright colors, a beautiful dining experience and fresh original food that you can't find nowhere else in the world.
So what does Loblolly serve? "Pastries, croissants, fresh bagels everyday, loaves of bread, cinnamon rolls, danishes, and muffins," says General Manager Serena Llyod. Serena goes on to say that the store biggest seller is its "Chocolate Croissants & Blueberry Muffins."
The bakery also offer alot of sandwiches, including an unbelievable Italian cold cut sandwhich. Loblolly also offers daily specials including a daily french toast special along with daily soup & salad specials in the afternoon. Grits has also been added to the breakfast menu. Loblolly also has a 'build your own sandwich' option.
What makes Loblolly different than any other place in Hattiesburg? Because it has a world renown chef, none other than Martha Foose, a James Beard award winner, serving as its head baker. Martha is the author of 3 cookbooks.
Loblolly is hoping to be a place where more students can come in between classes for a quick snack or enjoy a moment with fellow students and friends as most of the staff are USM students.
Serena encourages the community to come out and give Loblolly a try. It's a place like no other that appears to be destined for greatness, good vibes, and a great time.
