Our favorite BBQ place in Memphis. Must try: both wet and dry ribs and BBQ nachos!

Beale Street

Beale Street

Beale Street, Memphis, TN

Walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale - you have to visit iconic Beale Street while you are in Memphis! We suggest going during the day since it can get a little rowdy at night. Check out live music (BB Kings, Rum Boogie Cafe, Jerry Lee Lewis), enjoy a cocktail outside (Silky O'Sullivan's or Alfred's), and watch the Beale Street flippers if you get the chance!

Wolf River Greenway - Mud Island Section
