DOWNTOWN


Max’s Sports Bar

You can always count on Max's to have not just the game on but the sound too and now with the recently expanded patio, there is a ton more room for seating and that many more TVs to watch the game. Here, every game is a watch party. Happy hour runs 4:30-6:30 Monday-Friday $7.50 PBR and Fireball, $14.50 domestic buckets, $5.00 wells, and $5.50 draft. Plus, on game days they will run their happy hour buckets for an hour before and after every game and $6 Grizz shooters while the games are on.
 


The Green Beetle

Memphis' oldest tavern, The Green Beetle, offers a historic atmosphere combined with modern amenities like plenty of TVs for watching sports. It’s a great spot for grabbing a bite and enjoying the game with a laid-back vibe. Happy hour here runs Monday-Friday from 4-7pm for $2 off ALL appetizers, $2 off wells & drafts, and $4 Busch Light. Plus, all burgers are $2 off every single Tuesday.
 


Slider Inn

There's no shortage of seating between the outdoor space and indoor bar. The downtown patio has a huge outdoor TV screen perfect for game nights. Plenty of picnic table seatings or hang in one of their cabanas. Show your ticket before & after games for $1 off drinks (5 max, all season long).


Loflin Yard

An underrated spot to catch a game in my opinion with indoor bars and outdoor spaces. They have a ton of TVs outside but for big viewing events, head indoors where they have a few large projector screens. They host watch parties routinely. Happy hour runs Monday-Friday too with $4 domestics, $5 drafts & wells, $6 slushees, and $7 snacks.
 


Huey's (Multiple Locations)

While not exclusively a sports bar, Huey’s is a Memphis institution with plenty of TVs to catch a game, especially if you’re looking for good burgers and a family-friendly environment. Highly recommend the Poplar East location which recently expanded a huge patio space with TVs. Happy hour runs 4-7pm for discounts on most drinks, beer & wine, plus 2-for-1 well drinks & select drafts from 4-10pm. 


Birdie's

It may be a golf bar but this spot still takes all sports seriously like opening up early for soccer matches. Birdie's has plenty of TVs for your Grizzlies viewing plus some quick bites if you're in need of a pregame snack. They have a different happy hour for every weekday: $7 beer and a shot on Mondays from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m., BOGO wine on Tuesdays, $6 Vodka Red Bulls on Wednesdays, and $8 espresso martinis on Thursday from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m.

Flying Saucer 

Seating is rarely ever an issue at Flying Saucer. The downtown location is HUGE with plenty of TVs. They often have the sound on for games too. There's a full food menu and endless beer options. Plus, all draft beers are $5 from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m.

Wiseacre Brewing Co. HQ

The downtown HQ is the official pre-game spot of the Memphis Grizzlies. On home game days they offer $1 off select beers and special pizza deals (slices!) from Little Bettie Pizza. Deals start 2.5 hours before tip and go until closing time. Sticking around during the game? Wiseacre has two large projector screens for games.

MIDTOWN + COOPER-YOUNG

Bayou Bar & Grill (Overton Square)


Bayou may be all things NOLA and Saints on Sundays but it’s also a great spot for Grizzlies games with its plethora of TV and projector screens. Pull up a spot at the bar or at one of their many tables and grab a pint and some zydeco wings because what else could you need?

Celtic Crossing (Cooper-Young) 

While this is also a go-to spot for soccer fans, Celtic Crossing is a great spot to catch Tigers games whether it's inside at the bar or on the patio with TVs. Always a fun and lively atmosphere.

Alex’s Tavern (Midtown)

A Memphis institution since 1953, Alex’s Tavern is one of the city’s oldest and most beloved dive bars. Known for its legendary burgers and classic jukebox, this no-frills spot has a charm all its own. The bar features several TVs and a laid-back atmosphere, making it a favorite for locals who appreciate good food, strong drinks, and a true Memphis experience.

Murphy's

A classic Memphis dive bar since 1977 and an underrated for spot for games. One of those places where the TV chirping is almost more fun to listen to than game. Affordable bites and drinks too.

Additional spots to check out: Blue Monkey, Madison Tavern, Young Ave Deli.

EAST MEMPHIS

Brookhaven Pub & Grill 

THE sports bar of East Memphis with lots of indoor seating and outdoor patios and plenty of TVs. Brookhaven is known for its Tiger football watch parties but it still makes for a great Grizzlies game watch. 21+ after 9 p.m.
