We went here s couple of times, and the best night was on Wednesday because of good music. However, both nights on Wednesday and Thursday the food and staff were absolutely great. Highly recommend this place, especially on a Wednesday night when a great band plays.

My wife and I met at RB in ‘92 but this place has gone downhill- doorman very rude and disrespectful, we got up and left. Finding good help is hard but this guy needs to go…

Chris Gales is the only reason to come here! The catfish poboy is all bread with old lettuce and a tomato. Go to Soulfish for your Memphis catfish. They jacked the prices up in the last year and sooooo way undelivered. 20 minutes for a beer and forgot a meal at our table. The only upside was the amazing jams of Chris Gales!

Our waiter was clearly high, we could smell it. He was friendly tho 😆. The food was terrible. I ordered a catfish sandwich and the lettuce wasn't just wilted, it was molded. The rice wasn't cooked all the way in the red beans. The side of bread we were given tasted funny, like moldy. The catfish itself was fried perfectly. The drink was made well. Everything else was not good.

Rum Boogie Café on Beale Street is downright cool! Not an inch of this place goes untouched! There’s so much to look at, it’s incredible. You can feel the energy and history that’s passed through here, even during the day!

We had the breaded mushroom appetizer, which hit the spot, and the drinks were heavy pours, a definite plus! Loved the cherry margaritas! There was just one guy running both the bar and food service, and he did a fantastic job keeping everything on the move. They have a separate bar area as well as tables to dine at and watch the stage entertainment.

I only wish I could have seen it fully alive at night, but even during the day, Rum Boogie Café has a really unique vibe. Highly recommend stopping in!

Awesome place to sit and have a few drinks while listening to a good band! We loved sitting outside on the patio people watching as well. Had a great time there. Will definitely visit again when we travel back to Memphis.

We loved the music from the band and decided to get a rable. It was 1000 on a Wednesday night. I dropped off my wife while I parked 2 blocks away. It took me 12 minutes to park and walk back. When I walked in, my wife didn't have a drink and no one bothered to ask her what she wanted. Several tables of people had food and we wanted to get some drinks and order food. I had asked a waitress if I could order food and some drinks. She asked the cook and he said we could. She asked where we were sitting and then proceeded to ignore us for another 10 minutes. . After sitting there for 25 minutes, we left hungry and discouraged, not a good way to end our last night in Memphis.

Only takes cash but a nice spot with a decent lunch time menu and cocktails. Has over 300 signed guitars which is pretty cool.
