Downtown
Bars, breweries, and nightlife in Downtown, Memphis
Downtown Memphis sits a short walk from Beale Street, the legendary strip that's made Memphis synonymous with blues music and nightlife, and this corner of downtown has its own distinct scene beyond the famous strip. BarFinder lists 10 venues here, lounges leading the mix alongside a nightclub and a couple of bars - Wiseacre Brewery's downtown taproom brings a craft beer option to the area. J & J Lounge and Club Studio Blu round out a scene with its own late-night character. A good stop just beyond Beale Street's main crowds.
