I've been to many a bbq joints all over the country and after eating here this is one of my favorites. I think they now have four or five locations around Memphis but the one I went to is on Elvis Presley blvd. It's an easy three mile ride just north of Graceland. This location doesn't have much, if any... more

You just finished your Graceland mansion tour and it's lunchtime. You could eat at one of the overpriced restaurants at the Graceland tourism center, but why not live a little and take the gang a few miles straight up Elvis Presley Blvd to a genuine eating experience at A & R BBQ?

Elvis Presley location is in a lower-income/off-the-beaten-tourist-path area,... more

Can you say hole in the wall, and in the hood? Well, this place is. My family and I were in Memphis during my children's spring break and we asked some locals where to go. They told us to go to A&R on Elvis Pressley Blvd. The outside of the building was kind of rough and the location was in... more

A & R had the very best bbq sandwich we ate in Memphis. Get the pulled pork and a bag of chips, a nice cold soda and you'll be in heaven. more
