There's nothing quite like a slushy to beat the heat on Beale street, especially one with alcohol in it! Wet Willie's has tons of frozen options from margaritas, daiquiris to special mixes of the slushees! I decided to get a sour patch kid- a crazy and colorful mix of three different slushees (can't remember which). It was an awesome sweet and sour mix and it cooled me off and packed a punch! These drinks are definitely dangerous! read more

I had a much better time when I came a few years ago!!! Let's start with the fact that I ordered Nachos with NO jalapeño!! So why did my Nachos have them on there. Needless to say I had to ask for my guacamole and I also did not receive the sour cream. Very disappointed. I must say that "J" out waitress was awesome!! She went above and beyond for us. She deserves a raise. She ROCKS read more

Wet Willie's - I ordered Nachos with NO Jalapeño - American Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

This is a review from 12/15 Another stop we made was on Beale St and we had to try Wet Willies just because of the name. They have many different frozen drinks with some crazy names. My fiance got the Shock Treatment and it was really good. I tried the Sex on the Beach, it wasn't as good as her drink but I still enjoyed it. They had live music, the band wasn't the best I have heard but still made for a nice night. We tried a couple of appetizers, if we make it back we'll probably just go for the drinks. It's worth checking out if you are in the area. Just a side not to men, if you go to the restroom you will have a great view of the whole place because there is a window looking out into the place, this was very different. read more

Wet Willie's - On Beale Street - American Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

Tony and I was enjoying Memphis and the Cold Night life on Beale Street and Tony was a little "drunk" so I thought maybe we should get something to eat, and he was ready to head back to the hotel. So we crossed the street in front of Hard Rock Cafe, I almost went here, but I have ate there before and I like to try new locations. So, WET WILLIE's Neon Lights were flashing so I thought ...why not???? We had never been there before, not sure of the theme or food there, but it looked inviting. So, in we went. I was pleasantly surprised. It was a little larger than we thought. There was plenty of tables and a large stage for the band and a smallish dance floor in case anyone wanted to "cut the rug" as we say in West Virginia...lol !!! The bar area was amazing..it was a Daiquiri bar like they have everywhere in New Orleans. I didn't know that there was one in Memphis...Nashville needs one of these...I bet this is a huge hit in the summertime especially since you can walk with cups drinking in public on the streets or I should say "BEALE STREET" only.. I asked the barmaid and she said they had 26 flavors. I can't drink alcohol anymore, but I would have loved some of those flavors. In my day, I was a major daiquiri drinker.. The waiter greeted us and seated us immediately near the band. It was really loud and the music was more like late 70's rock..not bad!! Tony loved the men's room he said you could stand at the urinal and look at the wall and see the bar ((( it was a two way mirror like in a squad room))) the women's room doesn't have this feature...DRATS!!!! Tony ordered the " Philly Cheese Steak with French Fries" and Budweiser and I ordered the TACO meal, it was three tacos with meat and lettuce with salsa, hard shells with no cheese or sour cream..it wasn't bad, but not great ...I wouldn't order this again, but It was good. You might like it, it was fine because of my diet, but I would prefer some tomatoes and sour cream with a little cheese. It would have made it better. I would eat there again, but I prefer to try a new place first.. I had two glasses of pink Lemonade (zero points and the tacos were about 10 points) The price wasn't bad. I paid with tip, taxes and food/drinks $32.. I recommend trying it out and enjoying the Daiquiri Bar!!! read more

Came to Wet Willies with friends to get a daiquiris on a hot Memphis day and as I was about to order the bartender says that the computer was down so there was a hold on taking orders. When the computers came back up as I was already sitting down with my friends who already had their drinks the bartender completely forgot about me and went back to the bar and took orders from everyone else but me so I gave up and moved on. Its pretty expensive ripoff of New Orleans daiquiris scene anyways though the drinks are pretty strong. read more

Holy Hell Fire Batman. This place is insane. Can I ask you what is better than a bar with slurpee machines lined up behind the bar- all with ASTOUNDINGLY strong iced drink concoctions spinning away , awaiting your taste buds? Normally frozen drinks are pretty weak- and considered to be rather girlie. Well, if you find frozen drinks to be for females only, then I suggest you head on down to Wet Willie's and order yourself an Absinthe, Call a Cab or an Attitude Improvement (these are the names of the drinks, I'm certainly not telling you to adjust your attitude). I have never tasted anything so strong in my life. Perhaps this is based on the small fact that I later learned most of these beverages are made with grain alcohol- and the Absinthe with 138° absinthe MYTHE. I would tell you more of this experience, but I simply do not remember it. This was one of 3 drinking experiences in my life that had it not been for photographs, I would have no recollection of what transpired that evening. For those of you who are watching your weight or counting carbs- they offer the "Naked Willie" sugar and carb free. Those of you too scared to try a Willie concoction? Yeah, they cater to you as well. You can order up the "Weak Willie" which is a virgin option sans alcohol. Can I ask why you would bother though? In my humble opinion, Wet Willie's is an experience everyone must have- and I now list it on my "must do in Memphis" list for out of towners. read more

FUCK I found something else San Francisco is seriously lacking. First - amazing ribs. Now: A 30 foot bar with nothing behind it but slurpee machines full of booze. The Call A Cab was so strong I couldnt drink it, and that is a rarity for an alcoholic like me. I later found out it is made of whiskey, rum, grain alcohol, and "Red". Well if that doesnt explain why. Also, the best Karaoke I have ever heard. I was in awe, shaking my booty and singing along - purple lips and all. read more

Things I liked about Wet Willie's: 1) They adhere to there dress code. (Guys were forced to remove their hats.) 2) No cover even though there was a live band. 3) Grain alcohol. Things I didn't like about Wet Willie's: 1) Uhh...? Yeah, I wanted to say I hated the spot, partly because I'm a big fan of non-chains. But there was honestly nothing really to complain about. Sure it wasn't a spot you'd necessarily find me in normally (I'm more of a beer girl and less of a frozen fruity drink girl), but any place that adds grain alcohol to their drinks is a place I can call home. We showed up just about as the band was finishing up, so our poor timing was a little disappointing. Overall the crowd seemed like a fine mix of tourists and locals alike. I've been to Wet Willie's in Miami and wasn't as crazy about it, but the one on Beale definitely had a different vibe which I enjoyed a bit more. read more

This place just is what it is. Go in and get a mass produced slushy drink FULL of alchol. Call A Cab is what I ordered and let's just say I had to excuse myself from my friends at about 10PM and go back to my hotel to throw up my life. I can't hang as hard as I used to. We bought our drinks and walked across the street to Handy Park to look at the vendor stalls and listen to a Blues Band that was playing there. The bar itself is kind of depressing on the inside. Little annoying thing that happened: My brother almost didn't get served. We were stopped on our drive up to Memphis for speeding so his license was taken away and all he had was his ticket, BUT he has a FOID card. The bartender was being really douchey and acting like he did us a favor by accepting the FOID card as identification. Told us that if we had a passport this wouldn't be an issue-I know the South seems like a whole different country, BUT we weren't aware that we travelling internationally. I get he is doing his job, but he could have easily just said NO and we would have went elsewhere. No need for the dramatics. We had no problem getting served liqour anywhere else on Beale. read more

First of all.... I've been coming here for YEARS. My favorite thing is Attitude Improvement mixed with mango. AI is pretty strong as it is so I like to cut it with the mango a little.. and it tastes good as fuck. LET ME TELL YOU these junts will sneak up on you... like you just be sippin and then like damn it hit you. I also enjoy collecting the cups. If you're coming in from out of town... definitely stop by WWs and get a large so you can get a "souvenir cup". Nachos are good too. read more

This was the best bar on Beale Street! They don't need fancy decor or top notch musical acts here. They have 20 or so frozen daiquiris on "tap," and I wish I had the time and stomach to try them all. Already a bit tipsy, I leaned against the bar agonizing over weather I wanted the chocolate (excuse me, I mean CHOCOLATE THUNDER,) or the White Russian. The bartender (who looked like he could've been a stripper named Chocolate Thunder) said he could mix them, and I fell in love instantly. My husband sipped on some blue, lemon-y thing, worried he'd get a headache. Me? Not so much. I sucked that chocolate thunder down like nobody's business. I wanted another, but we were traveling the next morning, so I wistfully left the bar happy as a clam. read more

One time some friends and I took an impromptu road trip to Memphis. I am not really sure why. All I know is that after half of a Wet Willie I wanted to get into a fist fight with both of them. I seriously wanted to punch everyone I met. In a good way. I cannot think of a more ringing endorsement than that, honestly. Slurpee. Machines. With. Alcohol. This is honestly the easiest review I have ever written. read more

Meh. Came here looking for fun and a strong fruity drink, and I found neither. The "Call Me Cab" was not strong at all and had a horrible aftertaste. I couldn't even finish it because it was a waste of my calories. On the Friday night I went to in January it was dead as a doornail inside. The overhead music was wack and the poor guys behind the counter said they had no control over it to change it. All in all I'd rather spend $8.75 of my time on something and somewhere else next time. read more

This is a great spot on Beale Street, but be prepared -- the drinks are strong, which may/may not be a good thing, depending on your tolerance. There are at least fifteen varieties of colorful premixed frozen drinks lined up behind the bar, each one a different concoction of rum, vodka, grain alcohol, various fruits, and occasionally ice cream and chocolate. Delicious, and one is enough to give you quite a buzz. Have a designated driver on hand and prepare for a wild night -- the perfect place to go to blow off steam with a group of friends. read more

Wet Willie's - American Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

I remember back in the day this place used to be the cool spot ot be... Now i think im an old lady and have moved on to older pastures. I love the idea of the booze slushie wall, walk in, point and sample... create your own mixed concoctiojn or use one of their reccommendations... your choice.. but in my case have the tums on hand... between the brain freeze and the firey burn of some hellish heartburn... i have to pass. The boys both got whatever the most alcoholic combination was and i kid you not the first taste was like drinking jet fuel. it went down rough.. However i do believe from the shenannigans that ensued later that night the drinks did accomplish their goals :) and some of the flavorsare alot more tolerable then some of the others. Def a fun place to go, an experience you dont want to miss... but like i said,, keep the tums on hand. :) read more

Wet Willie's is a Memphis institution and I will give you three good reasons for that: 1. Wet Willie's offers the finest assortment of frozen cocktails East of the Mississippi. Seriously, the selection is practically infinite--from peach, to strawberry, to sour apple and bahama mama, there is definitely a flavor for everyone. And since they're premade, it's like daquiris on tap--quick and fresh. 2. These drinks are REALLY kickin'. Don't let the girly sound of some of the flavors fool you; these things are Grade A strong. When you buy one of these, you get your money's worth of buzz. 3. Wet Willie's is cover free. Even on nights when the rest of Beale street is charging $20 just to get in the door, Wet Willie's sticks to their guns and won't charge you to get in the door. So if you're looking for a great night out in Memphis, don't miss Wet Willie's! It just isn't a real night on Beale without at least one of their signature daquiris. read more

So good! Banana smoothy...maybe it was called a funky monkey, so darn good. Real bananas not the yellow artificial flavors. Fun fact: The men's room has a hidden view...take a look at the crowd while you take care of business. read more

It isn't often I get to feel like a kid again...but here's two words for you; alcoholic slushie! We stopped in here on a weekday afternoon and it was pretty dead. Service was extremely fast, especially the food, and it proved to be tasty. I tried a 'banana colada' a.s, and then had a few of the no-sugar 'call me a cab.' These frozen treats hit the spot on a hot July afternoon! read more

Wet Willie's - Drink enough of these and you'll be seeing sideways, too! - American Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

We were in and out of this place for a single reason: the music was incredibly loud. The bartender was putting napkin pieces in her ears while my wife was selecting a drink. Usually not a very good sign. The drink itself was very sweet so she ended up barely touching it. #sbroadtrip2013 read more

When in memphis I always stop here. If you dry they will get u wet kmsl. I come in sit down and drank till I cant. Ball till fall & just drink until I'm intoxicated and have to depend on the husband to help me get to the car & in my seat belt. If u can name it they can make it. Ha ha try the new York call a cab! It's a personal favorite of mine. You will drink like your in new York but afterwards u be so drunk u got to call a cab lol. read more

I'll admit, my friends and I are suckers for Daiquiri bars! Beale Street reminded me a lot of Bourbon Street and there are plenty of these to be found down there. This one however was unique...because you can order a sugar free drink! We walked in on a Monday night. The place was dead but all we wanted was a drink to go anyway. The girl behind the bar was friendly and told us Tennessee had a no sampling law (???) Strange...some like to try before they buy but ok. There is a list of descriptions so you can pretty much go off that to order. My friend ordered the "Call A Cab" which was pretty damn tasty. I opted for the healthy sugar free mango something-or-other. Yeah, you could tell it was missing something but it was booze so...not a big deal, it was still decent. I'm sure this place gets exciting on the weekend so if you're a fan of daiquiri bars, pay this place a visit. read more

This is where you go if you want a frozen drink while on Beale street. I've tried a few of them, and they're good! My issue is that I cannot seem to drink them fast enough, and I end up with a slurry of alcohol and sugary flavoring, rather than a yummy frozen treat. Go for the drinks, and not for the food. With friends of mine, we needed some fuel to keep the party going, and I just thought the food was okay. Nothing amazing, and I probably could have made it in my own kitchen. It's a fun little spot. However, if you sit close to the wall where the restrooms are, you can see guys standing at the urinals. It's almost like a two-way mirror kinda thing. You can only see from shoulders up, but it's a little awkward. My girlfriends and I found out one night, and I've learned to stay away from those tables! read more

Not a bad place to grab a quick alcoholic slushie to conjure up some liquid courage before dancing. I had Sex on the Beach and Call a Cab. Sex on the Beach was delicious, but Call a Cab tasted like straight up Nyquil. read more

As soon as I get into Memphis Wet Willie's is always my first stop on Beale. On a hot Tennessee day there is just nothing better than a slushie chock full of grain alcohol. Doesn't sound appealing to you? Trust me, its delicious and after a 'call a cab' you'll be ready to get your party on all over Beale St! They also serve food, but I've never eaten there so I can't review that but it's always looked good! The last time I was there they were serving jello shots for $2- also made with grain alcohol. They weren't the tastiest but they did get the job done. A large drink will run you around $8.50, there is a smaller version for around $6 but you'll want the large. They also have another cup with an included coozy option if the cold is too much for your hands! At night they have live music of karaoke. Just a blast in a glass. read more

I absolutely love Wet Willies, it has to be my favorite go to place on Beale street in Memphis!! The atmosphere, the drinks and the people makes it the best place to go to for great drinks any time! read more

My bff's and I came here twice, while we were in Memphis. Both times, I had the Easter Egg, The drinks are awesome. Nice and strong

Wet Willie's was one of the favorite places I visited while in Memphis. Which is strange, because I am not a frozen drink kind of girl....but when in Rome, or Memphis.... This seemed like the least crowded option, and they had live music with no cover - SCORE! The band was really good, and they took requests. They really got the crowd going. We managed to score a table as another group was leaving, just after getting our brain freezing slushies. I had the "call a cab," which was cherry and strawberry and 151 and 100% freaking delicious. A few of those and you will have to call an ambulance! My friends had a pina colada (WAY too sweet for me) and a strawberry something.....it was a fun stop. The bartenders were friendly, and as I said, it was one of my favorite stops while in town! read more

AWESOME place. You have your choice of over 10 different frozen drinks. I'm a self professed beach bum so this place makes me feel like I'm at the beach, just because of the frozen drinks, even if nothing about the decor is beach themed lol. The decor is a bit lacking, but whatever, you're on beale street to bar hop and you're not staying inside very long. Service was fast as they had plenty of bartenders. They had a DJ spinning the latest hip hop so that was cool. Food didn't seem too appealing, but again, it'd be like eating food at a strip club or something lol. Go next door to Dyers if you're looking for food I guess! read more

Alcoholic slushies...what will they think of next? This was one of the first places we hit once discovering Beale Street, and the supreme awesomeness of being able to wander the strip with booze. At the recommendation of the slushtender, we ordered 2 large pina colada/strawberry slushies, and made our way outside. The drinks were a little pricey, but DAMN were they strong! There wasn't too much else to be noticed inside, but it was well worth it for what we got. Delicious! read more

I love their daiquiris! They are quite cooling and pack a punch. I mix a high-octane with a mix of orange for a cool tasty treat before the downtown stroll. The lines can be long atrociously long with equally slow service. I flank the crowd by flashing a $10 bill for a large and catching them serving someone. Another tactic for not losing your buzz waiting in line: I bought a tourist's drink that took pictures and squeezed in my drink order with her transaction. It saved me twenty minutes and was worth $7. My date time is money. read more

My thing was security made me remove my beanie...mind you it's 30 degrees and it's Wet Willie's, it's not that crucial bro. Other than that, my girlfriend and I ended up getting the Call A Cab and Sex On The Beach daiquiris. The flavors were pretty good however, they weren't very strong. We were lowkey underwhelmed. read more

I had the Triple Play and the chocolate one (can't recall the name). Triple Play was overly sweet and not at all boozy. The chocolate was not properly frozen and tasted wrong by itself. However.... We were ready to take our drinks and walk outside. The guy behind the counter practically begged us to stay as the entertainment was about to begin. So we stayed. Oh my gosh. If you guys ever hear of Victor Wainwright and his band playing anywhere you must GO! You'll want to break out and swing dance like a mental patient deprived of his Prozac! This group kicks your butt, your friend's butt and every one of your family's butt and then starts all over again. Magic piano man. Whew! We went back again the next night and I had Call-A-Cab. Now, this was a little more boozy and I could feel the sneaky effects. If I had two I'd have to get assistance. Victor and his band had played earlier and wrapped up before we got there the second night. Bummer. Wet Willie's and live honky tonk raucous high-octane boogie-billy music go together like bread and butter. read more

Pretty cool bar on Beale St. Never have I seen so many daiquiri machines lined up in a row with so many flavors. And not just any daiquiri-very high proof ones! There are probably 25 flavors then all kinds of concoctions you can make by mixing them. Beer is served too for the non daq lover. The band was a cool 80's band playing lots of tunes you could sing to. Some dancing going on. We enjoyed the drinks and the show. Most of the joints on Beale serve "big ass beers" so it was nice to get something different for a change, and listen to something other than "blues" for a bit read more

Wet Willie's - American Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

My senior year of college I went to Miami on spring break and first learned of this establishment. Years later I am now visiting Memphis and I knew I needed to get a drink from here I ordered a piña colada paid and that walked up and down Beale street with it. It was sweet with enough alcohol to know that this was not a drink for children. It was refreshing in the Summer Memphis heat. I'm going to Miami for a wedding in October so I will be visiting again :). read more

Nice slushy drink for a hot Memphis walk on Beale St. They have a large selections of flavors. They are very helpful with suggestions on mixing it up and making your concoction. I would add a few more of non-alcohol flavors for those who are the DD or non drinkers. read more

Frozen booze in to-go cups? Of course this warrants 5 STARS. Didn't eat here and to be completely honest, it wouldn't have mattered because I came for the drinks. Tried a few different ones and definitely liked the Call-A-Cab best. Pricey for a slushy with house liquor - but was delicious and perfect for wandering Beale street and watching what appeared to be total disregard for child labor laws and middle aged tourist mobs. I'm going to try the one in Atlanta next. read more

We went in for a snack and I got excited by the row of daiquiris lining the wall. I wanted the call-a-cab, but for some reason the waitress (who was sweet otherwise) talked me out of it as if she just knew I wouldn't like it. (No samples, but no biggie) We ordered the tripple dip to start. The cheese was tasty and warm, but the artichoke dip was cool and the salsa was like chunky ketchup with some of the chips tasting stale and chewy. I went to the bar to ask the bartender about the call-a-cab, and he literally stared at me as if I'm supposed to greet him. He eventually said, "hi." Each one of these things on their own, I could have ignored, but added up they made for a very unpleasant experience. read more
