The Green Beetle

The Green Beetle holds the claim to fame as Memphis' oldest tavern. This place has such an amazing history - not only was Desi Arnaz a regular when he would come in town to play at the Chisca Hotel, but rumor has it that it's one of the last places Hank Williams drank before he died.

 

This is the original front door, which now stands between the restaurant and the hallway that leads to the bathrooms. Check it out next time you're there, and don't miss the pictures of famous regulars that line the walls.
