About Lancaster’s A Gulf Coast Favorite, Served with Heart
Every great restaurant has a story. Ours began with a simple act of love. One afternoon, Tansy was craving a fresh, made-to-order salad. After driving around town searching for a comfortable sit-down restaurant that served the kind of fresh salad she wanted, she and Rodney realized something was missing. Instead of wishing someone else would create it, they decided to do it themselves. That idea became Sassy Salads, opening in the heart of downtown Ocean Springs. What started as one great salad quickly grew into something much bigger. Guests fell in love not only with the fresh ingredients and homemade recipes, but with the welcoming atmosphere that made everyone feel like family. As the restaurant grew, so did the vision. Rodney and Tansy expanded into Lancaster's, adding hearty Southern breakfasts, satisfying lunches, homestyle dinners, daily specials, and full-service catering, while proudly keeping the famous Sassy Salad that started it all. Today, Lancaster's has become a favorite gathering place for families, friends, visitors, and locals alike. Whether you're stopping in for breakfast before work, meeting friends for lunch, enjoying dinner with family, or picking up catering for a special event, we're honored to serve our community with the same care and hospitality that inspired our very first restaurant. Because for us, great food has never just been about what's on the plate. It's about bringing people together. Welcome to Lancaster's Ocean Springs. We can't wait to serve you.
Lancaster's is proud to be recognized by Sun Herald and Gulf Coast Woman as one of Coastal Mississippi's favorite dining destinations. These awards celebrate our commitment to great food, Southern hospitality, and serving our community every day.

Their “Sassy” omelet is everything! Stuffed with shrimp, crab meat, crawfish, tomatoes, & spinach! It’s good by itself, but I always add sautéed onions & bell peppers! With grits & a biscuit & it’s more than enough. Also, their Belgian waffles are so dense & delicious… perfectly cooked! We always order takeout & it’s always hot & ready at the estimated time. Whether you are a local or just passing through & want a taste of the Gulf Coast, the “Sassy” omelet is where it’s at!

"Fabulous hometown eatery! I enjoyed my smoked turkey wrap with a side of potato Salad. My husband enjoyed his Country fried steak with mashed potatoes, white gravy, fried okra and cornbread (on the lunch menu). The place wasn't crowded, the food was very fresh and flavorful and the dining area was clean and comfortable. The portion sizes are quite generous and the service is fantastic. I highly recommend this restaurant!"

"Had dinner yesterday and breakfast this morning. Dinner was great. Hamburger steak with onions, green beans with a hint of pork flavor and other seasonings, fresh cut pineapple\grapes, and Cole slaw. Everything was delicious and tasted home cooked. It was the same with breakfast. I had the french toast and Western omelette. Don't judge me, both were incredible. The wait staff are just like seeing old friends again. If you go, ask them about how they got started and the "Sassy Salad".
