Kings Palace Cafe's Tap Room

We were in Memphis for only one night and hit Beale Street; the whole street was lively as ever even for a Thursday night.The Tap Room had a band playing some great music so we poked our head in. Ended up staying a lot longer than intended and had a good amount of drinks too. The bartender was super friendly and the vibes in the place were great too.The place is just a bit small and can get a bit crammed, but otherwise a great place to spend a night on Beale Street.

This bar is located on Beale Street in Memphis it has a cool feel to it & a live band plays here also. If you in Memphis stop by & have a drink.

Came in late for a light dinner on-a Sunday night for my first time. Here's the summary:- Music- no music in the restaurant but they have a side yard outside where the band was playing. - Service - Slow but friendly- Drinks - Wife's margarita was huge & well made- Food - was good but nothing to write home about.

Jamie is a fantastic and attentive bartender. Not sure about the music? Everything else was great, the staff is wonderful and location couldn't be better.

A-OK (3 stars). We were wandering Beale St. and this place struck as inviting. It had draft beer options, and some open seats, so in we went. We sat at a small table near the front door, and listened to the band for a bit. My brother bought a couple or wristbands, which I think acted as cover for this place, and I think, other places. This info came after a few beers, so I didn't quite get the concept. From our seats, we noticed a door in the wall, and as we watched people walk through it, thought we heard more music. I think we just found the cafe, as where we started was not a very good place for food. From this building we noticed tables and chairs out front, and this was the find of the night. My brother and I could now enjoy live music and watch the action on Beale St. Perfect. Tempted make this four stars, but since we did not dine here, I am reluctant to do so. Bottom line: OK, 4 stars. It was a great place to sit and drink (and people watch).

Food was yummy Good service and bartender Great dessert Music was perfect ! I will definitely be back try the Memphis breeze and gumbo!!!!They even gave me samples before ordering

If you are in search of great music while on Beale Street, this is it and totally worth the $3 cover charge (and tip jar $$$ for the band). On the other hand, those who desire quick bar service, this is not your place. There was one bartender and it took at least 20 minutes to place an order. Not much of an issue for me because I chose to remain thirsty & cocktail-less during our visit.

A friend and I made this our base of operation a long night of drinking on Beale street. What caught out attention at first was it had one of the only open walk up "beer to go" bars we could find. Secondly the music was outstanding. This girl was absolutely blowing up the fiddle. Killin' it!!The bartender was extremely nice and informative about the area and sights to see. The place got crowded in waves. As soon as the band would take a break there would be almost nobody in the entire bar with in the next fave to ten minuets. The band would start back up and the place would fill up quickly. After about 8pm there was a 3 dollar cover to keep the riff-raff out... On another note, the restrooms. The mens was so bad. It was literally right behind the stage, so the sound was completely deafening. The door didn't lock let alone shut. I walked in on at least two people and visa versa. Kinda embarrassing. But hell, after a couple drinks nobody really cares any more.This is a great bar and music venue. Just be a little weary of the rest room and stay safe.

I always get a cup of gumbo and catfish here. The food is good especially the gumbo. This is a nice spot if you are on Beale and want a sit down type dinner.

OK- THIS REVIEW IS FOR THE RESTAURANT, NOT THE TAP ROOM. We were walking Beale Street and decided to stop in.There was a BB Kingesque guy playing electric guitar and singing popular songs accompanied by a recorded bass line and drum machine. The ambiance was good and relaxed. The air conditioning was great on a hot night. The "Championship" gumbo was very good. The Memphis hot wings were mildly spicy and served Chinese style intact from drum to flat to wingtip. The dipping sauce was unique-- similar to ranch, and it was good.Everyone, from child to adult, LOVED the dry ribs. They had a sweet, crispy, outer rind and were tender inside. Perfectly cooked and executed. I've had ribs everywhere in the world, and maybe these were the best. The fried green tomatoes were good.The red sangria was bad. Very bad. Stick with the cold beer.I think I'll remember this meal with my wife and kids for a long time.
