Really what’s the big deal? A musician who has a restaurant.
Here’s the deal. If you in Memphis and you want gone feel of Memphis. Here it is. Amazing BBQ. Wonderful music. I Will not not say what is better….. music or food. ,.. you decide.
I have been here few times now. It’s always been a favorite for the family.

Excellent service, food was hot, fast and freshly made. Generous portions and extremely good. Especially the BBQ and BB King sauce.
Not necessarily handicapped accessible so make sure if needed you tell them in advance.

We stopped for dinner and live music on a Wednesday night. We were seated immediately (6 PM) and there was a decent crowd. The good is standard bar food with a Memphis twist. There were 2 bands featured during the evening. There was a $10 cover charge. Overall an enjoyable evening on Beale Street

Been trying to get to Memphis/BB King's Club for the longest. I finally made it 9-30 -22 to 10-2-22 for my birthday weekend and when I say I should have been there. I really enjoyed myself from the live bands to the food and drinks. The whole staff was amazing. I will be going back ASAP. I highly recommend. I love it, I love it, I love it.

We went here for dinner after visiting Graceland during the day. There was a live band on which were brilliant, food was also excellent. Beale Street was pedestrianised on an evening with live bands which was very busy but really good.

We checked out many places and their menu options. We've noticed we don't tend to eat as much as we used to when we were younger, so this had some good options for "sharing" a meal. There were 2 different bands performing when we were there. Both were good. A couple years ago I had been here with a friend and we didn't have to pay a cover charge. This time, we each had to pay a $10 cover charge over and above the cost of food and drinks. The second band spent more time promoting their name and introducing members as well as informing us that for $20 they will play any song you want. Give me a break. We literally sat there for over an hour and they may have played a total of 20 minutes worth of music. If I had known they were going to charge a cover charge, we probably would have skipped it. The food was ok as well as the drinks. If you read the menu's and signs - almost every place on Beale Street has the best BBQ! LOL

We didn’t need reservations. We just walked in. But I bet we were there around that time on a Saturday. Check the website, see if there is any info. DON’T GIVE UP YOUR SEAT

How easy is it get seated on Friday and Saturday nights? I tried making reservations but don't do reservations on weekends.

Get there earlt..about 7 and no problem. Even later is not bad as there is a high turnover, especially at band breaks. The place is deceptively huge
Olá!! Eu e meu esposo gostarÃamos de visitar o clube mas temos uma bebê de 1 ano e meio. Como funciona os horários da casa... Posso levá-la? Muito obrigada!

A casa fica aberta quase o dia todo, a partir das 11h até de madrugada. Eu não recomendaria levar a bebê, porque o clube tem música ao vivo quase o tempo todo, em som alto e ainda é meio escuro e costuma, ao menos à noite, ficar bem cheio. A casa tem uma espécie de mesanino com umas mesas que talvez seja um pouco mais calmo, mas quando fui as mesas estavam lotadas.
