lizabeth Gibson graduated summa cum laude from Mississippi College in 2019 and is presently enrolled at the University of Memphis while maintaining a teaching position at Clinton Junior High School. In her free time, she enjoys exploring Jackson and traveling through Mississippi with friends.
1. Saltine Restaurant (622 Duling Ave., 601-982-2899, jackson.saltinerestaurant.com) Saltine has my favorite oysters in the city, and its menu has other fun items as well.
6. Mississippi Museum of Natural Science (2148 Riverside Drive, 601-576-6000, mdwfp.com) Visiting this museum makes for a great COVID-friendly activity.
2. Brent’s Drugs (655 Duling Ave., 601-366-3427, brentsdrugs.com) The diner has delicious milkshakes, and I always get the patty melt.
7. New Stage Theatre (1100 Carlisle St., 601-948-3531, newstagetheatre.com) I love the arts, and New Stage always puts on the highest caliber of shows.
3. Mississippi Museum of Art (380 S. Lamar St., 601-960-1515, msmuseumart.org) The museum regularly has wonderful exhibitions, such as the Van Gogh, Monet and Degas gallery I visited with friends over the last year.
9. The Manship Wood Fired Kitchen (1200 N. State St., Suite 100, 601-398-4562, themanshipjackson.com) They have wonderful charcuterie boards.
4. Fenian’s Pub (901 E. Fortification St., 601-948-0055, fenianspub.com) I love and have been attending the bar’s trivia nights for three years now.
8. Mississippi Civil Rights Museum (222 North St., 601-576-6800, mcrm.mdah.gov) The museum provides a compelling telling of the “whole story” surrounding the Civil Rights Movement in Mississippi.
5. Fairview Inn (734 Fairview St., 601-948-3429, fairviewinn.com) I love strolling around the gardens, and it makes a great venue.
10. Mayflower Cafe (123 W. Capitol St., 601-355-4122, mayflowercafems.com) I love the “small-diner” aesthetic, and it’s a great spot for a date night!
