Not too far from Pop's Around the Corner. One of quite a few Jackson legendary locations that have closed or you cannot (or should not) step foot in any longer. Too bad, you could have some fun in there back in the old days.

Subway Lounge
Midnight Sun
Recovery Room
Dutch Bar
Cherokee Inn
I'm sure there are others I'm forgetting.

On the plus side, George Street Grocery and Fenians still seem to be hanging on nicely.

George Street has a (semi) decent location, at least in the middle of the urban core in the CCID.

People will (and want) to come to Jackson, you just have to give them a reason. Chockwe hasn't figured this out.

A few years back I was in Pop's every Saturday night. The Hideaway Club is nice as is Sam's. Haven't been to any in the last 7 years tho. Not sure how much they have changed.

George Street must hold the record for closing and reopening. Is it still sticky in there? Two Sisters, around the corner, had it going on.
Wasn't the building that George Street was in hunted? Seems like I remember it being on one of those ghost series.

Is/was the Hideaway Club the one in Deville Plaza? Like where the old movie theater used to be?

I have often said my city, Montgomery, was about 10 years behind Jackson on the road to hell. Lord, i saw a naked dude walking down the street just the other day.

Lyndon s was down along the tracks on Mill St. Go all the way down Fortification to the tracks , take a left on Mill and somewhere right in the next couple blocks. there were no lights or signs or anything advertising it. from what i heard Lyndon was Inez s son.

If you weren’t throwing down in Club Magoos with an 19 year old from Byram wearing a fake Colts jersey from China that she just bought of eBay as a self-love gift for being such a good mommy, I don’t know what to tell you

I thought that Murdergomery was gonna hold on after they revamped downtown. But nope, the electorate has spoken and they are definitely on the road to being a smaller Jacktown. At least they have the Air Force. Jackson is at least the business center of MS, while Birmingham has that role in AL.

Jackson is government and business, Montgomery is government and military.

Is.

CS’s is still open.

I had lunch there this week and had the Inez Burger which was good.

Yeah, I know I’m being pedantic.

CS's is terrible

It quite possibly has the best burger in Jackson now that Beatty Street is closed.

I’ll admit it’s been a while since I’ve had a Stamps burger.

Mary's Palace, Boots, hat and cane, Embers, Town Creek, The Lamar, Jackson City Limits, The Smurf Club in Bolton, PJ'S across the bridge, The Birds Nest and WADE'S BRIGADE IN Raymond, The Blue Goose and The Dusty Mule. Man the 80's were fun.

I ate at CS's back in the late 90's when I occasionally worked in Jackson. I thought it was good back then. Elite was another one that was popular but closed a couple of years ago.

Yep, you’re about 10 years behind Jackson. But did you have a naked man walking down the Interstate during rush hour? Happened in Jackson at least 5 years ago.

What was the bar at the Ramada on Hwy 80, Hunt Club?

The most target rich environment I've ever been in (for 30/40 yo divorced MILFs) was the 1001 club on County Line in the 90s.

With Richard Shelby gone, I expect to lose Maxwell in the next BRAC.
