Alex's Tavern

Alex's Tavern is the kind of old-school neighborhood bar locals guard closely. Its Greek Burger is the order that keeps people coming back, and it was one of the burgers Memphians recommended most often in a 2026 online discussion about the best burger in town.

This is a tavern first, with an easygoing, late-night crowd, so do not expect a big menu or a fancy dining room. It opens in the afternoon, which makes it a better pick for an evening burger and a beer than for lunch. Check its social pages for any schedule changes before you go.
