Southbound Bagel and Coffee Shop
217 E Front St, Hattiesburg, MS
Crema's Take
“Southbound is a genuine neighborhood gem where fresh, house-made bagels (try the chocolate chip or garlic varieties) anchor a breakfast menu that's earned serious acclaim from well-traveled regulars. The real magic happens in the atmosphere—whether you're grabbing coffee to go or settling in for a leisurely morning on their outdoor seating—paired with genuinely warm service that makes you feel like part of the community rather than just passing through.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Tiny place with a very old school diner type feel. I can see it being chaotic when it's super busy but it wasn't bad this morning when we went. Wife and I both got the Hub City Hash and it was extremely good. Highly recommend for a good breakfast.
Once, this spot was tied for my top breakfast spot in Hattiesburg. Over the past year or so, the quality of both food and service have become very inconsistent. I still have a great experience occasionally when I eat here, but the inconsistency is a BIG deterrent when it comes…
Great bagels and great breakfast and good place just to have coffee in the morning downtown Hattiesburg
I’ve been wanting to try this spot since we moved to Hattiesburg and finally made it today! The fresh bagel with eggs, bacon, and cheese was fantastic, definitely the highlight. The pancakes were okay, just get the bagels! Cute, cozy spot. Highly recommend if you’re in the area!
I love Southbound. The breakfast hash is great and so are the bagels. I like the atmosphere, too or sitting outside on a nice morning.
We had Southbound for breakfast twice on our trip to Hattiesburg because it was so delicious! The service and staff were amazing; especially two of the servers-precious young ladies! If you’re in Hattiesburg, it’s a must stop!
