We’ve all heard the expression, “The best of both worlds.” However, nobody brings the old adage to life quite like Barrelhouse, a modern gastropub that specializes in southern-inspired dishes and incredible craft cocktails. Take a look:

Jackson is no stranger to great restaurants, so it should come as no surprise that the culinary gem, otherwise known as Barrelhouse, is located in the capital city.

For anyone who doesn’t know, a gastropub is basically a bar with exceptionally good food. And going by that definition, Barrelhouse is definitely worthy of being deemed a gastropub!

But Barrelhouse isn’t just any gastropub – it’s “a southern gastropub” that focuses on southern cuisine with a bit of a twist.

Meatballs are also a big part of the fare. In fact, there’s an entire menu devoted to meatballs, which, are made of beef, pork or chicken and served with either classic tomato sauce, Parmesan cream, or pesto.

Traditional pub grub, such as burgers and sandwiches, has a place on the menu, too.
