Commodore Bob's Yacht Club

Located just a little of the beaten path of the bustling Cotton District in Starkville, you’ll find a restaurant like no other place in town. Commodore Bob’s Yacht Club sits in its own little world just behind the bar scene of the Cotton District. For the last three years, Commodore Bob’s has been serving up fresh, made-to-order meals and cocktails that are nothing short of impressive.

The entire menu at Commodore Bob’s is exceptional, and you’d be hard pressed to find anything like it elsewhere in Starkville. Head Chef Caleb Nabors describes the style of food at Commodore Bob’s as “world cuisine.” No other restaurant in town claims that title or serves up meals as unique as Commodore Bob’s. The menu is a bit more upscale – something you really don’t find in the Cotton District area. Everything in their kitchen is locally-sourced and made fresh daily by Nabors and his staff. Even fresh herbs are grown on site.

On the menu, you can find lighter appetizers like Buffalo Chicken Dip, Street Corn, or a classic Charcuterie Plate. Seasonal specials are also available, like the end-of summer Caprese Style Tomato Tart. This tart is loaded with fresh tomatoes, cheese, and a delicious balsamic glaze.

With a name like Commodore Bob’s, you can expect a seafood-heavy main course menu. The Seafood Cioppino is one of the most popular dishes. This massive dish is loaded with fresh lobster, Chef Caleb Nabors mussels, shrimp, scallops, and a rich tomato sauce. Chef Nabors said they are also known for their steaks, fish tacos, lobster and shrimp mac and cheese, and oysters. The menu isn’t just limited to seafood, though. Sandwiches, soups, and salads are also available.
