Local 463

1000 Highland Colony Pkwy #5002, Ridgeland, MS 39157, USA
(601) 707-7684

This is my absolute favorite restaurant in Mississippi. If you go, get the Honey Rosemary Fried Chicken with extra honey glaze on the side, or get the Tart Apple & Arugula Salad and add the Crispy “Kung Pao” Rock Shrimp. If you want a drink, try the Jana's Honeysuckle!

Krilakis

My other favorite restaurant- it's a tie. Get the Two Cheese Burger with fries and add grilled onions. Don't forget to get the sweet tea too! They have the best burger in Mississippi in my opinion!

Sombra Mexican Kitchen

Sombra has the best chips, queso, and margs EVER!

Bop's Frozen Custard

(601) 952-0661

This is by far the best ice cream in Mississippi! I had Bop's at least once a week in high school. My favorites are the chocolate banana milkshake (they use real banana's) and the Turtle. I also love the Oreo and Snicker Concrete made with chocolate custard. But everything on the menu is wonderful!

ACTIVITIES

McClain Resort

McClain Safari is a drive-through safari and petting zoo located in Brandon, MS (about 35 minutes from the venue). Cooper and I went to McClain's on one of our first dates. All you have to do is purchase food for the animals at the desk up front.

Cooper, Jake, and I completed the Pizzeria escape room here and it was a blast! We have done quite a few escape rooms and this was by far our favorite! Highly recommend
