Fayetteville cafe aims to entertain younger crowd

The Lil' Memphis Blues Cafe in Fayetteville has changed its entertainment format to appeal more to the youth of the community. According to the Cafe's management, Friday and Saturday nights are now designated as Teen Weekends. House disc jockey DJ Cheeze will provide a mix of Hip Hop, R&B and Rap music.

Special shows are planned to include live performances by local and national recording artists, radio personalities and teen talent shows. Video games and a new lighting system of multi-colored spinning lights, strobe lights, chaser lights, fog machines have been added.

On the menu are burgers, fries, onion rings, snacks and soft drinks. No alcoholic beverages will be sold and smoking is not allowed, according to manager J.P. Beaty. "We feel that Lil' Memphis will provide a fun and safe atmosphere in which teens, 13 years and up, can socialize on weekends and after high school football games," Beaty said.

The cafe can also be reserved for special meetings and private parties. Beaty said parents are welcome to visit or sign up as chaperones.

Operating hours are Friday and Saturday, 8 p.m. to 1 a.m. Lil' Memphis Blues is located on Ga. Highway 85 in Fayetteville, behind Mrs. Winner's.
