Best coffee drinks in town, delicious breakfast, lunch, and dinner -- locally sourced, fresh and healthy, tasty and high-end ingredients. Brewery next door. I like to go here first, brewery after, then walk the bridge.

Sightseeing
Walk or bike (there are mobile app bike rentals available at this location) the Mississippi! The pedestrian/bike bridge is about a mile across, and is wheelchair accessible.
How often do you get to say you're standing in two states at the same time? Once you cross into Arkansas on this pedestrian/bike walkway, there are miles and miles of beautiful and very flat Arkansas fully paved trails. Ideal for those who are active and want to see some of the Delta plains while getting in a good workout!

If you want a tranquil walk/jog along the river (not over the river, like Big River Crossing), this is a lovely 2 mile stretch of shaded cottonwood trees and riverscape -- highly recommend late afternoon and sunset. Grab a cocktail afterward on the rooftop deck of the Bass Pro Shop

Arts and Music Scene
Check out the underground art and music scene in Memphis. Their website is Off The Walls Arts and their events page is usually up to date. Metal Sculptor, Yvonne Bobo, holds art exhibit openings and live concerts at her artist collective warehouse in the pinch district. There is plenty of parking and usually no cover, just pay for drinks (there's a bar).
