👻 A Legendary South Main Sanctuary

Located on South Main Street in downtown Memphis, Tennessee, Earnestine & Hazel’s is widely celebrated as one of the best dive bars in the world. Originally a late-19th-century church, then a pharmacy owned by Coppertone creator Abe Plough, the building was gifted to cousins Earnestine Mitchell and Hazel Jones in the mid-20th century. While they operated a salon and brothel upstairs, the downstairs evolved into a legendary after-hours jazz haven. Thanks to Earnestine’s music-promoter husband, Sunbeam, legends like Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin, and B.B. King frequented the joint after performing nearby.

Reopened as a bar in 1992 by Russell George, it became famous for its legendary, griddle-cooked “Soul Burger” and a famously “haunted” jukebox that is rumored to spin tracks on its own. Regularly praised by major national publications like Esquire and Playboy, this gritty landmark preserves its authentic, untouched atmosphere, remaining an indispensable, soulful pillar of Memphis culture.
