Shirley Mae's Cafe

We will be closed Thursday, November 25th so that we can spend Thanksgiving together as a family.  We will reopen Friday, the 26th at 11am as usual.

We wish you and yours a safe and Happy Thankssgiving!

Due to the ongoing increased cost of supplies, we are going to have to increase our menu prices. Our lunch special will increase from $10 to $11. Entrees will increase by $1 with the exception of Ham Hocks and Pig’s Feet. New menus effective September 30th.

Chicken wing prices have almost doubled over the last two months. Until we know if this is a temporary or permanent cost increase, we will be putting three wings in an order instead of four.

Thank your patronage and understanding

Commonly known as a Derby Pie, the Kentucky Bourbon Pie is a dessert lovers treat: walnuts, chocolate, bourbon and a crust to die for. It is in season and available Saturday the 10th and Sunday the 11th of April at Shirley Mae’s.

While slices last..

Yes, Shirley Mae got her first Covid19 vaccine shot last week.  She experienced some soreness in the arm opposite the arm the shot was given.  She is already scheduled for her second shot.

Since the first shot, I have had chills and soreness in the side opposite the arm that I got the shot in.  I read that I need to drink plenty of fluids, so I am drinking plenty of water.

Here she is after her second shot.

As we do every year, we as a nation and as an establishment will take Monday, January 18th to honor the legacy and sacrifice of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.  Unfortunately this year because of the pandemic, Shirley Mae’s will not host a fellowship to honor Dr. King. We look forward to the day when we will be open to dine-in customers again.

We are going to continue closing at 9pm on Sundays going forward.  We are also going to continue only doing carryout only until further notice.  Covid19 is still too serious for us to take any chances.  You can call in orders, do curbside service, or come up to our order table outside.  We wish everyone good health and safety and appreciate your continued support.

We will be open for carryout and call in orders during our normal hours:

Thursday –  Sunday

11am – 9pm

During these challenging times, it is tempting to allow fear and anxiety to control us.  When I look at my life, the history of our nation and scripture, I am reminded how resilient we are and that ‘this too shall pass’. I want to thank all of our customers, friends, family and fellow citizens who have continued to support us physically, spiritually, emotionally and financially.  Thank You!
