Tucked away inside the Mighty Eighth Museum, Miss Sophie’s is a hot spot for home-cooked meals. Every day,
a buffet line features four vegetable sides and two to
three starches to accompany the day’s entrees. The weekly menu includes:
Tuesdays: Fried pork chops or meatloaf
Wednesdays: Fried chicken or pot roast
Thursdays: Fried chicken or country-fried steak with gravy
Fridays: Baked or fried fish, twice-baked potatoes, and chicken tenders
The food is authentic and comforting, and it’s clear from the clientele that this place feels like home. Many military personnel in their fatigues join the line, reminiscing about family meals.
In addition to the buffet, Miss Sophie’s offers a menu with salads, sandwiches, burgers, and hot dogs, including the famous meatloaf and gravy sandwich.
Miss Sophie’s is straightforward and no-frills, but you get more than your money’s worth. And yes, seconds are allowed. Get there early, as the dishes are prepared fresh daily and sell out quickly.
