The Crystal Shrine Grotto is a large man-made crystal cave hidden in the middle of Memorial Park…read moreCemetery in East Memphis. It was started in the 1930s by Mexican sculptor Dionicio Rodríguez and is covered with tons of quartz crystals, religious sculptures and biblical scenes depicting the life of Jesus as well as grottos, bridges, and concrete landscapes. After crossing into the cave you'll find scenes depicting: - The Nativity - The Last Supper - The Resurrection - Various Old and New Testament stories And it's all illuminated by colored lights reflecting off the crystal-covered walls. It's one of those things you have to see to fully appreciate and it's absolutely worth a visit. Admission is free and it's easy to find once in the cemetery (there's plenty of signs pointing the way) and parking is easy. Definitely don't miss this if you're in Memphis. Pro Tip: it's located near the grave of soul music legend Isaac Hayes so if you're into music history you may want to package the two stops together.

Hidden Memphis Gem! Beautiful and very peaceful. Love the Biblical scenes inside of the grotto…read more This is a place you just have to go see & explore for yourself.

The Be end and Street of Blues Dreams!…read more Welcome to Beale Street in Memphis, Tennessee. Let the memories of the past be here in the present. The ghosts of the past are here are you ready to discover and see them. When in Memphis, this is a must! Well I don't drink! That's all right! They have mocktails if you need them. Or a mixed cocktail. Whatever wets your whistle. Hair of some sort of a dog. Now Beale Street is not Las Vegas, maybe during its hey days. Let's go back to circa 1920-1940s this was a black owned atmosphere that boomed. It shook all night with nightclubs, restaurants, theaters and of course the music. W.C. Handy and wrote" Mr Crump," being the Father of the Blues! He made the blues a word of mouth bit. Muddy Waters and Bb King among others performed in these juke joints. The blues thrived and made the area strong. At the beginning of the 1960s Beale Street fell into decay. Elvis was a regular visitor here moving to Memphis when he was only 13. He was signed to Sun Records in November of 1955. The likes of Beale Street were more the local screaming joy rather than a tourist attraction. In 1966, it was added to the national historic register to preserve the cultural significance and iconic heritage. In the 80s to the present day it's a great place to see. Be prepared to bring your actual identification card from your local place of residence or you will not be able to get through security. Vegas could learn from the heighten security measures here. Everyone shows id or you don't get in. They take security precautions and very strict measures here. It makes an individual feel safe. Wander and feel the effects of the blues viruses taking ahold of your soul.

Beale Street is the epitome of a tourist attraction/trap…read more It's a street with stores, bars, and restaurants geared towards visitors. However, there is some interesting and eye-catching street art to be admired. If you've never been to Memphis, check it out. Really no need to see it more than once.

Second Yelp night out! Thanks so much for the tickets! I…read morelearned alot about whiskey that night but...I forgot it all...darn that whiskey!!! I tasted the Piehole first and I know I said the Larceny 92 proof would be my last. Then I saw the second table of whiskey and gave in to the strawberry one since my soul was on fire from the Larceny still. What two whiskeys I had inbetween I can't remember. That Piehole was to die for though! Pecan Pie Whiskey?!?! I usually gag at the thought flavored whiskey but man that stuff was good. If you want to get a party started the quickest way would be the Larceny though haha. DONUTS. I came in knowing my favorite: Howard's all the way!!! But I found a new favorite: Jody's Donuts. The ladies from Jody's were so awesome (the only people I saw from the respective donut places) and I knew immediately that I had to ask about the one with bananas on it. They sold me on it and just when I regretted taking it, I took a bite and went into Elvis/doughnut/childhood memory nirvana. Gotta go by their shop now! Gibson's were actually on point that night even though I am usually the hated one in Gibson's debates.

I was here, and I wasn't really here... So much donuts and whiskey…read more.. Okay, settling down. I had to shoot some hoops to see if I was able to drive home. And since I missed majority of those shots, I suppose I am! Did you guys noticed that the Yelp panties are perfect for spider man cosplay? Who's going to be my Peter while I be your Mary Jane? Did Deanna just pack a whole box of donuts home? Above statements were part of the saved draft... So, I guess I had fun last night! Those pecan pie tasting whiskeys are killer. I'm also very happy that I tried donuts from 3 different vendors and donut holes from 2. Unfortunately, Gibson's took the crown and run away with it. Gibson's donuts are the best. Rec Room is awesome. I can't think of a better location for an event like this. Whiskey, donuts, and video games! Generation Y, represent!

They always have banana pudding which is my favorite and it's such a fun place to look around while you wait in line. There are so many candies to look at and they even had some Labubu balloons my kids were asking for. It's a fun place. We love the Chicago mix popcorn! Checkout was easy and $16 for 4 ice creams was a very reasonable price IMO.

I dropped by here recently with a pair of very well-used, leather, SAS shoes that were given to me…read moreover twenty-five years ago. I knew that if anyone could reattach the sole, this cobbler would (if possible). He wasted no time with his almost instant assessment. If the sole were glued back on, it would soon detach again. This guy is an expert at what he does, and I trust his judgment and opinion. I really enjoy doing business with someone who's honest and direct. No false promises equals integrity in my book. I'll definitely continue with taking my leather goods here.

This hyped up Memphis spot is beautifully designed but disappointingly serves a subpar dinner. I…read morefully appreciate the cozy, low-lit interior. The vibe was upscale and elite, and the service was timely and attentive! The notes I have are solely regarding the dishes we ordered. My boyfriend and I split the Honey Gem salad, which was perfectly balanced and had delicious, sweet profiles. We then ordered the Chicken of the Sea Pizza, which was very questionable. Essentially, the pizza was just round garlic bread with a 3oz mound of sushi-grade tuna in the middle. The cold, raw tuna atop hot, oily cheese was not the combination I was expecting nor enjoyed (I was expecting cooked tuna, and for the pizza to lean more on an Asian flavor focus). This pizza was supposed to have a green goddess sauce/drizzle, but was unfortunately missing. I was hoping the sauce would help to round out the odd flavor pairings.

Midtown is no longer an ice cream desert…read more There's an ice tan shop in Cooper-Young! You will miss it if you don't look closely. It's on the bottom floor of a building with condos near the old Stone Soup Cafe I didn't fully understand the concept until after I left and saw some photos here on Yelp. Basically, you can add pre-set toppings from the menu or toppings of your choice. I got the cake batter flavor and it was good.

I was highly pleased! i went around 3pm and parking was good. The staff was friendly and helpful…read more The combinations were creative and I ended up going with "Da Coconut". My name was checked off the list and I was good to go after my order. My waffle cream was so delicious that I sat outside and enjoyed it in full. It wasn't going to last in the car LOL! I love that this is a Black-owned ice cream shop because we have so few in Memphis but growing! Great job Yelp Memphis!

Ever since discovering Memphis Roller Derby in 2016 through a Facebook event post. I decided to…read moredrive on over to the Pipkin building & see what RollerDerby was like. All I have to say is I was impressed from the the whistle to the very end. Watching the Roller Derby girls block jammers & jammers trying to get through. For $10pp you & your family can enjoy this high energy action packed sport monthly on Saturdays. Where you can spectate the fastest action on 8 wheels to touch down onto the floor of the Pipkin Building. I'm never impressed with the consessions as they are overpriced medicore & the selection is depressingly boring. I'd just suggest eating at the Highland Strip or anywhere in midtown from the Cooper Young area to Overton Square. As they are just a convient drive from the Pipkin Building but if your looking for an after party with the derby girls. Be sure to check out their group page on Facebook for more info on matches & roller derby related events happening in Memphis. fb://page/17275832821
