MEMPHIS, Tenn — Roxie's Grocery, a beloved establishment in North Memphis, is closing soon, but Friday, it received a tribute from Shelby County Commissioners, highlighting its significance just a stone's throw away from Saint Jude.
The establishment's origins trace back to 1986 when Floyd and Roxie Miller laid its cornerstone as a grocery store. It's since been considered one of the best places to get a burger in Memphis.
It quickly became famous initially for their homemade breakfast and soul food lunch menu selections.
Present at the event, the Miller family watched as the County Commissioners paid homage, acknowledging their dedication that has propelled the family business through several decades of operation.
Roxie's Grocery will continue to operate from Monday to Friday, operating between 7 AM to 3 PM, until the reins are handed over to new buyers.
