Talk about a history! The building that houses Earnestine & Hazel's had a split personality in its original heyday: by day it was a dry goods retailer and by night a brothel. For those who prefer swanky neighborhood dives, this local gem is just the place. A surprising – and eclectic – crowd of young professionals and downtown regulars floods here...

If it's beer you seek, this popular bar should be the first joint you check out. Inside, you'll find an atmosphere conducive to downing a few brews and having a good time: wooden furniture, pool tables, and plenty of Elvis memorabilia.

If you're looking to branch out from the typical Memphis blues joint, Hollywood Disco is the club for you.

Blue Monkey, both restaurant and bar, is a definitive local favorite. Its menu includes pizzas, calzones, salads, plate lunches and Black Angus burgers, and pool tables and live music create a fun, friendly atmosphere.

Memphis has more than its fair share of neighborhood bar and grills, and Huey's happens to be one of the best. The atmosphere is no frills and all bar, and the menu features what many locals regard as the area's tastiest burger. Huey's is a great place to swing by and catch the game on TV too – especially if you're inclined to down a few brews and...

Few places in Midtown inspire the loyalty that Murphy's does; the clientele includes everybody from hip, young professionals to college kids to hard-core beer hounds. Perhaps it's because their Happy Hour lasts, as luck would have it, until 7pm! This Irish-style pub, a Midtown staple for more than 20 years, offers a casual atmosphere and excellent...

True to its name, the Sports Pub attracts a good mix of sports fans. The bar tends to be lively, especially if the Vols, Titans, Tigers, or Grizzlies are on the tube. Expect it to be crowded on weekends with everybody from professionals and college kids to tourists. The place is popular for its 20-plus TVs, a rather daunting beer selection, and an...

Popular with a younger (and louder) crowd of professionals and college kids, Old Zinnie's is a terrific stop when you want to grab a bite to eat and drink a few brews. The bar hasn't changed much over the years, and it's always been a great place to play pool, toss darts or catch a game on the tube. If you get hungry, the Cheese Coney and the...
