Ole Planters Restaurant

A nearly half-century downtown Hannibal dining tradition is coming to an end. In a Facebook post last week, the announcement came that Ole Planters Restaurant would be closing for good November 30.

On vacation in the late 1990s, Joe and Karan Noonan visited Vicksburg, Mississippi. They pulled into town late one evening and found the only Bed & Breakfast with the lights on - The Duff Green Mansion on First East Street.
