We were back at Mary's again this past Thursday. The Memphis Rum Club meets here once a month, and it's always a good time. Mac is a great bartender...
Tiki Bar
Mary's Bar of Tropical Escapism
Memphis, Tennessee, United States
Opened April 13th, 2024.
Mary Oglesby and Paul Gilliam, who created and opened the Cameo cocktail bar in Midtown, are the co-owners of Mary's B.O.T.E.
The interior has a dark classic tiki feel with fish traps hanging from the ceiling above the bar, and a back-bar shelving unit stacked with booze and featuring what must represent many many hours of routering native style patterns.
Across from the bar and barstools are diner style booths lining the wall from front to back.
There is also a back patio decorated with pink and turquoise yard flamingos.
