1 Best Sight in Jackson, Mississippi

Hal and Mal's

If Jackson is the "City with Soul," Hal and Mal's is the sanctuary where, for decades, people of all ages have congregated to find comfort in the food, solace in the music, and fellowship at the bar. The entire complex, housed in a former train depot, comprises a combination of private and public event spaces—each one with unique traditions, including the headquarters for Jackson's biggest street party of the year: Mal's St. Paddy's Parade. Try the Blue Plate Special for lunch, Monday through Friday.
