Area diners got a big shock earlier this week when it was announced that the Catfish Inn, one of the oldest and most popular restaurants in Jackson Parish was changing ownership.
Located at 1650 Arcadia Hwy in Quitman, the eatery has been a favorite of Jackson Parish residents and those from the surrounding area for nearly half a century and under the same ownership for the past 30 years.
The surprising change of ownership was announced in a post on the Catfish Inn Facebook page on Saturday stating that current owner, Ms. Robbie McConathy was selling the business to Robert Stassen.
More information is set to follow on new hours and times of operation.
When I come home that’s the one place i always try to come by (and enjoy some catfish). I bet Rober will do a great job and congratulations to Robbie! Enjoy your retirement!!
Each time we go back to visit friends and family in Farmerville, Hodge, Georgetown, Houma, Choudrant, West Monroe and other lovely places, we always, before leaving, eat here. Food and folks waiting on are amazing. Only drawback are the prices, which seem to rise often. However, I attribute that to Bidenomics.
