48 hours in Memphis: Things to do, see, and eat! | Memphis Tennessee Guide
I live in Memphis and I loved your video! But locals will tell you that Rendezvous is for tourists. Central BBQ is the only bbq I approve of. And I love that you went to Railgarten. It's such a cool place.
You should try Toms BBQ. Them and Central are top 2 for sure.
CENTRAL BBQ IS THE BEST! Rendezvous is a tourist trap
Central BBQ is crap. I've eaten there many times and the last time did it for me. The pulled pork was tough and the ketchup they have in large canisters was spoiled. I actually like Rendezvous much better. Cheers from Little Rock, Arkansas.
@@gumshew2007 everybody's opinions differ. This is the first bad thing I've heard about Central BBQ. Not sure which location you went to, but the one I go to never fails to impress me 🤗

Soooo-you are tourist from LR?
Oneika, I'm glad to see that you enjoyed my hometown. We have some of the best food and some of the sweetest, down home people. Come back soon.

I believe y’all may have some good food but seriously are the people really some of the “sweetest,down home people”?because as a soul musician who’s lived in Georgia I am interested in possibly moving to Memphis but I hear of so much crime. I’m currently in Orlando and I hate it. I need a job that I can’t get and I’m not even old it’s anti social and no kind of black unity here or unity period so tell me?
I am from Nashville and I love to Travel. I need to drive to Memphis. It is easy to forget how great a short trip can be. Thanks for the inspiration.
No you don’t, stay safe
I’m glad you enjoyed Memphis!
Thank you for shining such a bright light on our city!! Excellent video
Thanks for visiting my town and showing me places I didn't know about
Hey I work for fedex in Switzerland . I saw that a 3 bed house costs 75' 000 only .In switzerland an outdoor parking spot costs 30'000 usd .A 3 bed flat over 500 ' 000 usd ! Should i move to Fedex Memphis ?
@@game-nn3rs yes
@@shirleyjohnson7272 maybe i will !🐉
Great video. Thanks for highlighting some of the great things in Memphis.
Food, food, food and that street art was amazing, what a beautiful experience to visit the Museum. I can't even imagine all of the emotions you may have felt, but glad it was a highlight on your travels 💙
Please do more videos like this for domestic travelers like myself. It's sooo many cities to explore in the US. Thank you for this video.
Oh honey no, Rendezvous is a tourist trap. Central BBQ is where it's at
Bullshit Cozey Corner is the only real BBQ Joint in Memphis the rest sucks
Cozy Corner or you haven't been to Memphis. Really.
This 8s what I want to know I want the hole in the wall spots are the best
@@johnburrows5444 what's so different about this one
Cozy Corner is that hole in the wall. Everytime I go to Memphis it's the first restaurant I go to. It's authentic Southern BBQ Black BBQ. Those other tourist traps have black pitmasters but with a white surroundings. First bite you're hooked like a Crack addict it's that good.
In Mississippi there are BBQ joint in damn near every gas station and most are damn good, but you see any black near the food or cooking don't waste your money
Great video, background and narrative. Very informative... thank you for creating and sharing.
I would eat across the table from you anytime.
Good company always makes a meal better!
Great video of my hometown! You captured the city really well! Other great local restaurants are Cozy Corner (best bbq in the city, IMO) & Chings hot wings!
I will use your video as a guide when I go to Memphis. Thanks.
loved this tour of memphis! it wasn't on my radar before... but now it is!! thank you!
It shouldn’t be on anyone’s radar
Awesome vid. I cannot wait to visit next year!
Great video! I'm from Memphis, but have been in Florida for 20 years. I wish you would have gone to Stax music museum, Graceland, the Pyramid where the Bass Pro Shop is located, Mud Island, and Interstate BBQ (the BEST in Memphis..Pat Neely's family). There is so much to do and see in Memphis, so 48 hours is definitely not enough time! Thanks for sharing what you did. Also, those not from Memphis will also be pleasantly surprised at the southern hospitality we are famous for as well.
I’m agree, Elvis is stil important 🙂
No there isn’t much to do and see
I'm planning to go there for my birthday. Your commentary and style of showing around Memphis are great! I love BBQ and Rock N Roll! Your video is helping me with the brainstorming for my trip. Keep it up!
What a great video, obsessed with the intro shot of you in orange matching the butterfly wings! :)
oh! I def miss that southern BBQ! Love the street art and the trollies are adorable!
I love your style of vlog!! I really enjoyed you!!
I’m going to Memphis soon and you gave me some great ideas. Thanks!
For what?
Thank you for showing us non-Beale street bars - I’m actually staying right in Midtown close to the ones your mentioned! I’ve been to Beale a few times and it’s just a little too touristy for me.. can’t wait to check them out!
Great video! I loved it and love Memphis too. Travel safe and thanks for posting.
No, you love the ghetto
This video was so good! Quality, wholesome content can be lacking nowadays but not on this channel. You have a great personality!
Love Memphis, loved your video. So much history and fun stuff to do. Next time try out The Commissary BBQ in Germantown, TN. It’s really great!
Great video. I’ve saved your video to remind myself to check out some of the places you visited. I plan to visit Memphis for the Beale street music festival in May. Thx for the video.
There are better music festivals to attend. This world is huge and revolve around Memphis
Please, please keep more videos like this coming!
I miss my Memphis. Thank you for this video.
Yea you miss that ghetto shithole
I wish I would’ve traveled more in the US before traveling outside the country but now I’m living in Thailand with my Thai wife and loving it here. Love the videos
Some people are surprise of the many Great things to do in Memphis. And this video is just a small sample. Real good presentation of The Best City on The Planet.
Give us some idea
There is absolutely nothing to do there
You must have been listening to me and my friends discussing places to see...Memphis is on our list and this video hit the spot.
Take it off your list
@@kaydod3190 LOL...no worries...I still haven't been to Memphis...
Love your style! Rendezvous is so much fun!
But central is the spot!
This was great! Heading to Memphis next month to pay my respect.
You are supremely talented. I loved this video. Fun interesting visceral educational...
Great video. Happy Thanksgiving. I loved your style. Nice work.
Beautiful city, it's fun to explore and learn about this new city.😂💯👌👏
I hadn't thought about going to Memphis before, but after seeing this video I think we'll try to get here sometime in the next year. Thanks for sharing!
Jerri Clemons You did great.
Please don’t
Awesome video! I want to perform in Memphis, I've gigged in Nashville a dozen times but never been to Memphis! What a great job you did editing and narrating this video! You also have a great voice over skill btw!
Very nice.. Will go to places..Thank you.
My home town, you did an awesome job... I hope you felt warm and welcomed❤
I’m going to have to try Alcenia’s, that’s a new one for me. Thanks for stopping through the 901
😂😂😂
I used to live in Midtown! I just moved back to Nashville a few months ago. I saw the thumbnail and knew you were at Alcenia's, I LOVE that place!
I never thought about Memphis but for quick trip looks perfect for a long weekend. Thanks!
Do yourself a favor and stay out of Memphis.
lagaman11 why? Seriously tell me why? Because as a soul musician I am interested in possibly moving to Memphis. I’m currently in Orlando and I hate it. I need a job that I can’t get and I’m not old it’s anti social and no kind of black unity here or unity period so tell me why
Alot of homicide and gang violence out here right now have too be careful where you go
Yes, exactly! You truly need a bullet proof car, and clothing, to be really careful. But, even then, you still are running a huge risk.
@@lagaman11 but its danger everywhere you go not just Memphis.
well edited and made video!!
Coming May 2020 can’t wait ty for your video
was in Memphis a few years back, great video, wish you stayed longer and told about the local transit, buses...I found few when I was there, still a great city
No it’s not a great city
Wow beautiful video ! I’m goin to Memphis to visit my cousin looking for things to do thank u 😍🙌🏽
😂😂😂
Thanks for a great post showing some of what's up in the 901. You need at least 5 more visits to get a real taste. Everyone is always welcome to the 901.
Yup. You need to at least get shot or hear gunshots, harassed, robbed, car jacked, and hear ambulance/police sirens to get the true 901 experience
I enjoyed it. :)
Omg, you are SO pretty. This was in my "recommended for you" and I'm glad it was. You're also fun, energetic and informative. And did I mention very pretty, lol, God bless.
Hey, great video of my hometown🤗 . Here's some advice for future visitors. BBQ: ONE & ONLY BBQ, INTERSTATE BBQ, SOUL FOOD: SOUTHERN HANDS, THE FOUR WAY SOUL FOOD RESTAURANT, UPSCALE: ITTA BINA ( B.B.KING), EXPLORING: STAX MUSEUM ( THE HOME OF MUSICAL GENIUSES), SLAVE HAVEN, TOM LEE PARK, RIVERSIDE DRIVE, and of course BEALE STREET (RICH MUSICAL🎶 HERITAGE) We have such a diverse city and so much history here. I hope you will enjoy your stay✌🤗 MANY BLESSINGS❤
That city isn’t diverse at all nor does it have history. Stop talking out of your rear end just because you’re from that shithole
Excellent videos 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
So many places and I haven’t even seen them and I live in Memphis and hour from downtown lol 😆
You must live in Jackson,Tn. Lol a hour from downtown
nice video! great narration. the city council should pay a promo fee!
I'm coming to Memphis in a few weeks. I never been im so excited 😊
Why?
Ha! Rendezvous! I go there every time I go to Memphis (which sadly has only been twice)!
Be thankful you’re still alive after visiting twice
Great job! Although, like all of the other locals commenting, The Rendezvous is NOT the place to go for BBQ. Central BBQ right next to the Civil Rights Museum is the BEST.
The museum is a must. Very sobering and eye opening.
She's very pretty... I am from Fort Lauderdale, but live in Memphis now... Cool city. Great video.
HI...we found you through Hey Nadine's 2019 Travel Countdown...glad we did! But, we were curious about Bolivia and your experience but we couldn't find a video on it. Is it posted somewhere else?
I'm going to Memphis on the 20th can't wait.
Why?
Omg... are you beautiful! I am texting from Madrid, Spain. Hope will be visiting Memphis in less than a year. Thanks for your advice and thank God for your pretty face.
Every time I go to memphis....i never want to leave
Why? You got shot there?
We've been only to New York so far, but thinking about giving the United States yet another chance as travel destination. :-)
As there's a flight to Atlanta from Dusseldorf, a Road Trip throughout the south seems interesting! From a European perspective, those are B-destinations - but with those, you learn more about the country and won't be exposed to German tourists all the time (as in NYC or San Francisco). And I enjoy places with lots of local tourists!
Note to self, Skip Beal St, head to Midtown !
Omg! My city! I've never even heard of Alcenia or Railgarten. Lololol
I lived in Memphis for 42 years, and the last 10 was in Midtown(Cooper Young). The place was like SoHo on the weekends. I'll be 43 in a couple of weeks lol, but I always say "there's nothing to do in Memphis." I built a home in the suburbs almost an hour away... you make me want to explore the city like a tourist lol!
I live in the Overton Square area and there’s plenty to do in Midtown. See live theatre and live music. A new boutique hotel is being constructed at the Square and AirBnB’s are plentiful. Rent bikes or scooters and ride on the many bike lanes and trails. The Levitt Shell in Overton Park offers free concerts in spring and fall. Visit one of the best zoos in the US at Overton Park. The Concourse (old Sears Tower) is a vertical neighborhood with shops, entertainment, restaurants, retail, living space and more. Broad Avenue Arts District offers boutique shops, craft activities, bars and restaurants.
There's nothing to do in the 'burbs. (Except maybe Cordova) Midtown and downtown there's literally always stuff happening. Suburbs are mostly for growing families etc not necessarily nightlife or fun. That's how it is most places - not just Memphis. If you're tapped into the downtown/midtown scene there's always fun stuff happening
@@countessratzass5408 No there isn’t
@@verda_renee Nothings happening but shootings, robberies, and car jackings
My city. Wish I'd known you'd be here.
😂😂😂
Love the smile
Would love to visit Memphis one day! Great video friend. Very helpful!
You have a bless day
Memphis Tennessee.... come for the food and music, stay because your car got jacked.
😂😂😂😂
I love Memphis 💙
I love the ghetto ❤
Greeeeaaaattttt! Video! What's the name of the hotel you stayed in while visiting Memphis? I want to visit. Thanks for sharing
CynthiaTravelingQueen thanks for sharing nice video
Yaay!
Famous Elvis Presley and Graceland in Memphis !!!!!!❤
hey little advice from a fellow film maker, you should get an on camera mic like the "rode video mic pro" or the "rode video mic go" or the even smaller and cheaper "rode video micro" it will take your videos from zero to hero great job and i am looking to see you build your channel and come visit me in NYC one day.
I lived in Memphis in the early to mid 90's and LOVED it. It breaks my HEART to see what's it's become especially my old neighborhood which I'm told is now called Hickory HOOD (!). It was the GREATEST city ever back then. A common debate was whether Memphis or Atlanta would become a bigger and better city ... Memphis coulda been bigger and better than what Atlanta is now. Breaks my heart.
Yea hickory ridge is empty
Memphis never had the potential and it never will be great a city or greater than Atlanta
The four way....tops burgers....Jack pirtles steak sandwich...Broadway pizza and burger...bbq shop....Bryant's breakfast....amerigo....hueys...folks folly...the corner store in Raleigh has great chicken livers....on and on. And rendezvous is some good ass bbq
Great spotlight, and i hope you get a chance to return. please disregard the negative comments here. it's obviously a very slanted view that is misleading and unneeded.
Wonderful video and, with all respect, you are pretty! 👋😄
Beal St was great in the 80s.
i'm going to memphis on spring break
You did us right sweets!!! #901
Great vid! But Rendezvous is the Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. of Memphis lol. It's all about tourists. Locals don't really eat there.
Elvis put this city on the map for the rest of the planet!
No he didn’t. All the killings and shootouts put it on the map
Locals don’t go to Beale Street to party, only if they’re taking out of town guests. Locals go to Midtown (Overton Square, Cooper-Young, Broad Avenue Arts, the Concourse).
😂😂😂
subbed
What an incredible video! Did you shoot this alone? I think you did and you are officially awesome. You’re an amazing storyteller. Thank you so much for including the “I am a man” sculpture. Nobody ever does this in their Memphis videos. I hope you’ve done an episode on Knoxville!
FYI as a person form Memphis absolutely no local goes down to beal street
Not true. I was born and raised in Memphis and spent 30 years in the local news media. LOTS of my friends are regulars downtown and on Beale, but we know how to be alert and stay with the crowds for safety.
I worked there for a year and no one I know hangs at Beale.
Just depends. I grew up in Memphis and I know people who still hang out there. I know others who wouldn’t be caught dead out there lol.
Rendezvous is absolutely awful. Plenty of cool places to visit though.
Seems like a nice place to visit.
Since you Travel so much! Your Opinion" What's the safest and Best place for Blacks to live at?
