Memphis Slim's House of Blues

Very nice underground bar! We loved the atmosphere and the singer. The bartenders were very friendly and nice. Would go back for more! If you want good blues in Adelaide, here’s the place for you.

Seriously, at one of the lowest points of my life, I stumbled across this place on a Wednesday night. It was a quiet night, but I was treated like family here.
We talked about blues. I requested a song that Steve didn't know how to play, but knowing the song he played a great substitution.
Seriously if you haven't been here, have you really been out in Adelaide??
Thanks guys xoxo

Awesome underground bar with amazing live music and drinks! Great atmosphere and service. This is a perfect place for a date, it's a small bar so it might be challenging to find seating with a group unless you split up.

I had so much fun in this down stairs jazz bar. I have visited while a band played and prior to a ban appearance. There is a pool table and a small dining / drinks area. The main bar houses the band, seating and standing areas. The sound is perfect, the drinks well priced. I don't like standing and was lucky enough to get a seat. Toilets are up stairs near the nite club.

Great little bluesy dive bar with extras! Fantastic live music, free pool table and some private nooks if you want to get out of the crowd. It does get busy though, so get in early if you want a seat. Bar staff are great, really friendly and welcoming. The food is actually really amazing too. Highly recommend the burgers and wings!

Located in the heart of Adelaide, just off Rundall Mall, Hindley Street and Gilbert Place. As you enter from the street, there are 2 entrances. The one upstairs goes to a bar and the one downstairs to the basement is for Memphis Slim's House of Blues. We went on a Saturday night and it was very crowded, standing room only. It was so crowded we could not get to the bar to buy drinks! Music was good, atmosphere was reminiscent of the good old days of blues.

Great small basement venue for live music. Went twice in one week while visiting Adelaide. One band played cover songs and one played mostly originals. Both were excellent.

I went for the Thursday night jam, spent about an hour there from 9.30 to 10.30. $10 entry, good drinks specials ($10 for a Sierra nevada), exceptionally good quality live blues music. Venue is a bit small, gets crowded quickly. Wrist stamp got ink on my clothes after it dried (be careful!). Great time, would go back and plan for staying longer.

Great atmosphere excellent music. Go there! But be prepared for expensive drink prices 🍻

Called in here for a drink as had read the bar had a great selection of Whiskeys. Great little bar on the style of your typical small American Bar. Great atmosphere & if there was a band Playing it would be a top atmosphere.

Excellent little bluesy dive basement! Great place to forget about the world above and just fall into a blue mood. Cocktails are out of this world! Staff are friendly and very helpful (shout out to Jack!). Make sure you have a Philly Cheese Steak too.

This joint hops!
Great band on night we were there - Matt Hawkins 4 (can they play, or what!)
Two more groups playing that night at later times, as well.
Loud in the stage/bar room, but they have booths in another room where music can still be heard.
Bar staff were great, friendly and efficient.
Drink prices are a little higher than a pub, but also cover the live music so are very reasonable .
TRY THE BOOZE AND JUICE choose your liquor base, then they juice fresh apples to add with ice - unbelievably tasty

Great place nice food gay friendly Great beer love the music 🎶 🎵 👌 ❤

Absolutely love this place! Down the stairs you will find a fabulous atmosphere, live blues and the best whiskey sours in Adelaide

An awesome underground venue for live music 🎶
Great atmosphere!

If you want good music, amazing people and good beers, go there!!!

Very welcoming and a great atmosphere.
Friendly, helpful staff and awesome music. 👌

Another hidden away gem in adelaide. Great vibes, great drinks, great staff.

Love the vibe here! Bartenders also know how to make a blood good cocktail. They have an interesting and unique cocktail menu. Live music was so enjoyable too if you are into Blues (per the venue’s name….)

Yeah so this is a hidden gem. Underground country for the absolute win. Live music, great bar, friendly staff.
