Pool and bowling

We came here for a birthday party. Bass Pro Shop is in the pyramid in Downtown Memphis, and it's much more than fishing gear and hunting paraphernalia. The building is clean, decorated, and areas of interest are labeled. Both entry and parking are free and available on both sides of the pyramid. There is an elevator for the lookout ($10 entry) and and lodging upstairs. There are several areas to explore that include gifts, shopping, hunting supplies and attire, a bowling alley, old time candy, Wahlbergers restaurant, even an aquarium and alligators (with live feedings at 2pm). We ate at Wahlbergers, and the food was really good. After eating, next was bowling. You pay based on time, and they offer socks for a fee (if needed). It's easy to lose track of time, so bring a watch or use your phone as the elevator for the lookout closes at a certain time. Whether or not you're into outdoor sports, this is a great place for adults and kids to explore.

Wow, this was an amazing place to visit while in Memphis, Tennessee. This is a huge pyramid and it has all kinds of outdoor merchandise, activity, vehicles, and all things "outdoorsmen", in this large pyramid. There's even a restaurant inside of this place. You can go to the top of this huge pyramid and actually have a view of all of Memphis, and I understand other places like Arkansas, Texas, etc. There was a super long line to get the elevators to go upstairs. When you're walking up to the place, you can't help but notice that the security is definitely looking at you and watching anybody who comes in and out. It was really strange also to see a Memphis PD officer parked in the front , and inside she was walking out with an empty wheelchair. That was very strange. Anyway, when you come in, it's like you're in a huge outdoor world, then you see a wood cabin interior in the entrance. So, there are all kinds of great things in the lobby to look at: all equipment for fishing and whatever you do outdoors all around the place. They even have taxidermy of animals of all kinds on display here. They even have a lodge that you can stay in, it's a hotel. I was excited to see the live alligators, fish, ponds, waterfalls, palm, streams, etc., all around this big store. They even have a little arcade where you can practice shooting targets, and there were a lot of little kids in their parents do that. So many children were climbing on ATVs and sitting on them and I thought it was really funny. This is like a world for any and everything outdoors, campaign, fishing, and all terrain affiliated activities. When you go to the registers, they have snacks and you can buy snacks for anything here. It's definitely worth checking out. It's definitely a tourist attraction at this location.

A few friends suggested I check this place out. Not normally my thing, but I had nothing else to do. Holy crap, was I wrong. This place is incredible. They literally have an alligator put in the store. And a shark tank. The place is massive and beautiful. And everyone was exceedingly friendly.

It's a Bass Pro in the Memphis pyramid. Really cool once in a life time visit; really cool inside with a lot of sure to see; ie. a few small alligators, and many fish. The story of how it came to be is interestingly funny. https://www.forbes.com/sites/joesills/2020/08/26/the-unbelievable-true-story-of-how-the-memphis-pyramid-became-a-bass-pro-shops/

Talk about an establishment that makes a statement both external and internal. You need to check out this location it is so cool. There are even live fish and alligators present. There is a wide selection of items available. It s an outdoor adventurers dream. I have never seen so many outdoor hunting products in one area before. This ranged from a plethora of guns, bows and arrows, etc. There are different price points for items too and you can pay $8 to take the elevator to the top of the pyramid. This is a great value to see a Memphis Sunset. The employees are all so helpful and they actually seem happy to be there.

Cool place to walk around check out what kind of camping/hunting stuff they have to offer. You can even take an elevator to the top to see the views of Memphis. Lots of parking and you can spend a good hour walking around seeing all the products and check out the food here too!

I don't like fishing. I don't like hunting. I don't own a gun. All that being said... this place was pretty darn cool. We wanted to go in because it's a giant pyramid so it stands out. Really thought it would be lame. Great deals on clothing. Wish I was willing to spend some money but vacation is over. I already spent too much. Every beef jerky making machine you can imagine. Giant catfish. Alligators. I'm terrified of heights but we took the elevator up to the tippy top of the pyramid. I was too scared to go out on the glass observation deck but my friend did. $8 a person. We also sat down and he got a beer. Super cool looking bar with giant fish tank. You gotta see this place. I think it has something for everyone.

What a cool place to check out. They carry all of the same stuff as other ones, but it has some cool scenery. Check it out!

After all six people that we asked about Memphis told us we had to go to Bass Pro, we decided something that everyone agreed on must be worthy of at least a short visit. We are from the bass pro headquarters of Springfield, Missouri and I actually didn't have high hopes this place could outdo our own bass pro which is massive size and also has the number one aquarium in the United States eight years running. This pyramid is jaw dropping. From far away, it gleams in the sun, beckoning you to come and take a peek. The exterior reminds me of the Luxor in Las Vegas, but the inside is so much more fun than a casino in my opinion. There are a lot of nostalgic parts of Bass Pro because the animal areas reminded us of Wonders of Wildlife back home in Springfield. Even though we've been to our bass pro many times we wanted to completely explore this location and we had a super fun time looking at everything that the building had to offer. If we ever come to Memphis again, I think our biggest mistake was not staying here. We ran into many people that were staying at the hotel and they all seemed super happy about their accommodations. We wasted no time in taking the elevator to the top and even the 45 minute wait flew by as we got to know the fellow patrons in line with us. There is also lots to look at as we waited in line because Bass Pro always has a fun selection of items to purchase. My kids especially liked the dinosaurs filled with sand and picked out a pig dog toy for our Frenchie that we knew that she would adore. We loved taking the elevator to the top at the lookout and hearing the story of how this building came to be. At the top, it was a beautiful view of the bridge, buildings and all of the surrounding area. We also were able to score an amazing reservation at the Lookout and enjoyed a fantastic lunch that we will be talking about to all of our friends and family. I think we spent around 3 1/2 hours at Bass Pro and we really enjoyed every minute of it.

Kind of cool I guess. It is definitely something to see in Memphis. Big shopping store. Restaurants inside. Free parking - some in shade under the bridge overhang. Electronic duck shooting game. Pressable pennies. A "large" fish tank. Go up the top of the pyramid for a view of downtown Memphis. There is also a restaurant upstairs. $8 (before taxes) to go upstairs.

I didn't know what to expect when coming to the famed Bass Pro Pyramid, but I was pleasantly surprised. I feared it would be like a mall or be overly commercialized, but it was just a regular Bass Pro Shop with the addition of a hotel and a Wahlburger's inside.

Pretty much a tourist trap - built like a pyramid- after that loses its luster. $8 per person- to ride to top - semi ok views of the city

I somehow missed reviewing this jem. This the best thing to ever happen to any pyramid in the tri-state area. It may even be the best thing to happen to any pyramid in all of North America. It's a Bass Pro Shop, duh! The backstory on this place and how it became a Bass Pro Shop is a long one.... I ain't got time for all that, so Google away. It used to house our college and NBA games, some other sports stuff, a few big religious sermons, and was a terrible music venue as well. Sound was aweful. Anyway, this place is rad! I mean like really, really cool. Even if you are not an outdoorsy kind of person, you will almost surely appreciate what lies inside this stainless steel monstrosity that is perched on the bluff of the mighty Mississippi River. There is so much to see and take in inside. It's hard to really explain it and do it justice. Fish tanks, hotels, bowling lanes, shooting range, antique guns, ammo, camo, Santa, portable stoves, duck decoys, boats floating in an inside manmade lake with ducks, fish, and other wildlife. There is even a spa!!! You get the picture.... Shits rad '25 - 11/111
