  • Your review helps others learn about great local businesses. Please don't review this business if you received If you're a hipster who enjoys cocktails served in mason jars (mason jars!!!) and an ironic country vibe (without being too country), you'll love Memphis on Main. I definitely witnessed at least one guy wearing cutoffs and cowboy boots drinking a PBR. This place seems to get really loud on weekends, and with live music, there is sometimes a cover. I almost went once on a Friday night, but didn't want to pay to stand amidst the cacophony of drunken yelling and mediocre country covers. I did, however, return on a Sunday night when it was almost completely empty, and I enjoyed one of their specialty cocktails served in a 32-ounce mason jar. They have a full bar and a number of beers, as you would expect, but the mason jar cocktails are definitely the most interesting thing on the menu. I ordered the long island ice tea, and the menu actually specified that they would only serve one per customer (implying that 32 ounces of this cocktail was about as much as any one person could handle). The marketing gimmick succeeded, and I really did feel like a man as I ordered this high octane beverage. Here's how they make it: they take a jar, stuff it full of ice, pour in about four shots of well liquors, and then blast it with sour mix until it's full. I imagine this is what most of their cocktails are like - a few shots of liquor with a ton of sour mix or juice. If you hate the taste of hard liquor, you'll love these juicy, sweet cocktails. You barely taste the alcohol because it's so diluted in ice and mixers. Similarly, if you love the taste of sour mix, you can't really go wrong here. When I think about it, this is pretty much the best 32-ounce sour mix mason jar cocktail that $8 will buy in Champaign-Urbana. I realize that I'm being way too hard on this place. It's just a bar. The drinks are gimmicky, but kind of fun. I highly recommend coming during off hours unless you really dig a super loud drinking environment. * Apologies to the friend who brought me here who will almost certainly read this review. He's a great guy and we had a great time, even though I was being a total cocktail snob the whole time.a freebie for writing this review, or if you're connected in any way to the owner or employees.
