The corner of Highway 438 has a kitchen

A Highway 438 fixture since 1996

Big's Place has been a part of Franklinton since 1996 — the kind of store where folks stop in for a plate lunch, grab what they forgot for supper, and catch up at the counter. Same corner, same welcome, nearly thirty years running.

It's a country store with a kitchen: a hot lunch special most every day, the everyday groceries you need between trips to town, cold drinks, beer and wine, and a friendly face on the way through. Run by the Knight family, for the folks of Washington Parish.

"Big's has great food and also what you need on the go. They even have the stuff you need to fix something." — a Big's Place customer
