Bayou Bar & Grill

Bayou Bar & Grill brings Cajun cooking to Overton Square, one of Midtown Memphis’s restaurant and entertainment corridors. Its website says it has served from-scratch food and local draft beer since 1987, and presents the venue as both a dinner destination and a place to gather for games. A recent local guide identifies screens and packages for NFL, NBA and college sports, a distinction from a restaurant that simply leaves one television on.

The menu explains why food is central to the visit: it lists seafood gumbo, chicken-and-andouille jambalaya, shrimp-and-crawfish étouffée, po’boys, oysters, Zydeco wings and alligator-chili nachos. Burgers, salads and fish dishes are also available, alongside beer and cocktails. The official menu publishes prices and can change; the homepage lists daily service, online ordering and events. Reviews for this branch often discuss Cajun flavours and classic dishes, with varied comments about drinks and service.

The address is 2094 Madison Avenue, and the website lists daily hours from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Its location among other restaurants makes it suitable for a pre-game meal or group outing; a tourism listing also identifies parking availability, but specific conditions should be checked on arrival. For playoff games or late fixtures, confirm whether the broadcast will have audio and which menu items remain available near kitchen closing.
