Welcome back to Almost Oxford, the series about bars, restaurants, and road stops that... I mean, you get it. This week I chose to highlight a burger place I mentioned in a piece about casual dining that Oxford could use.
Velvet Cream has been serving burgers in Hernando Mississippi since 1947. I’ve never had any reason to go to Hernando, but Velvet Cream is one of those right off the highway places you can hit traveling between Oxford and Memphis. The first thing that stands out about Velvet Cream is the size of the menu. The only thing bigger than the menu is the giant ass cup that looks like it was created just to one up Sonic.
