Best of Jackson 2017:
A longtime Jackson institution, Hal & Mal’s is always on a short list of the city’s top destinations for drinks and entertainment. Can’t-miss parties and special events dot the Hal & Mal’s calendar, and both local and touring musicians have carved out their place here over time. Though top-flight musical talent brings the crowd through the door, the food and drink are what keeps folks coming back after all these years.
“For us, we just do our thing, and we’ve done it a long time,” says P.J. Lee, who serves as co-general manager along with his wife, Brandi. “We love being downtown, and we love being a part of the community. So anytime people think about us in contests like this, we always appreciate the love and support.”—Alex Thiel
