Beale Street

Though some might say Beale Street's heyday was back in the roaring twenties, we say that while it may have started then, it never ended. It remains the heart and soul of Memphis nightlife. Known as the "Home of the Blues", this iconic street is flanked by world-class restaurants, bars, and clubs, where live music and good times roll non-stop.

BB King's Blues Club

Right in the heart of Beale Street, BB King’s is a Memphis staple where the music never really stops. It’s named after the legend for a reason—big acts roll through, but you’ll also catch solid local talent most nights. The food leans classic Southern (ribs, catfish, and shrimp & grits), and the atmosphere is loud, lively, and built for a good time.
