Reviews of Paula & Raiford's Disco (Night Club)

Caleb Kelsey

Incredible place but you need to know what you’re getting in to. Bring lots of cash ($15 cover and cash only bar) and be prepared to stay there until late if you want to have fun. Be sure to brush up on your drumming before you show up because there is an open drum set on the dance floor for any drunk to hop on. If you know what you’re expecting then you’ll have a great time

It was Great 25 years Ago, it’s Still Great! Nothing like sippin on a Quart in a 70’s Atmosphere listening to all the New and Old Beats. Good place to let your hair down !

Shaun Kahler

Don't go here. Huge waste of money. $15 cover, $5 for just a Sprite, and the people here CAN'T DANCE. Mostly white girls with their phones out ignoring people and putting awkward fake faces on. Really heavily nervous, awkward, stiff judgmental vibe. I've been clubbing at a lot of different places, and I'm here to tell you one thing. This place *sucks*. Save your money, and skip it.

This is not really about the inside aspect of the Disco/club but about how they seriously need to have people outside the business to help maintain order of the overly drunk idiots and keep them from passing out and puking all over themselves and the entrance way of other business. We spent hours with the amazing Raven next door at Skull & Rose Tattoo getting special tattoos and when it was time to leave we had to litterly move people away from the door and walk thru vomit to leave. Pathetic! The owners need to show more respect than that to fellow business owners.

A must visit if you are an out of towner.

If you ever find yourself with nothing to do in Memphis on night, then you have already failed. But don't despair! Drop by P&R's and become the Dancing Queen.

Dion Riley

I had a really great time.

Ivory Hawkins

the people outside were very bad .. reflecting how they look like ;’/

Hannah Duncan

Don’t waste your money coming here.

Place looks like an episode of “Bar Rescue”...before its rescued The staff was incredibly rude for absolutely no reason. Felt like you were talking to customer service people that were trained to be angry and defensive right off the bat Also they charge a $20 cover charge that I’m sure they pocket. I refuse to ever give them that money again just based on principle alone

HK Linn

It's a great place for music and dancing and he is by far a great DJ, but it is expensive. $15 to get in door, $10 - 32oz beers and they only take cash. It is loud, so make sure you ask for ear plugs. They claim to be open until 3:30am but pushes ppl out at 2:45. The armed guards with glocks on the dance floor makes sure you leave.

They water down the vodka.

Emily Kathryn McCann

The most fun I have had in months! Went on a Friday night and came right back on Saturday night. Safe environment with great security. The DJ is amazing. If you are looking for a place to let loose and dance, this is the place!

Fred Erbe

Had a blast, don't remember how much anything cost but it sure was fun

Aerin Ellis

Most fun in town! Best place for after parties and nights you'll never forget

Chelsea Henderson

Ed Revugh

Crystal Simpson

Great time with friends and fam Paula is THE BEST in the West

Kris Key

Super sad to say they completely we officially lost ignored us - say at the bar for 15 minutes and got completely ignored because of the color of our skin. Been going there for years and now never going again.

Woo!

Brent Crenshaw

You can't come to Memphis without experiencing Paula & Raifords disco. You will have a big dumb smile on your face as you dance the night away.

Josh Czupryk

If visiting Memphis, I would recommend avoiding. Try Beale Street, Cooper Young, or Overton Square as alternatives.

Nikki McCain

Raiford’s is one of the most unique places. If you’re in Memphis, you have to visit Raiford’s. You won’t be let down. Ask for Keshia. She’s such an amazing bartender with fast service.

Stefan Andre

So many different people. This is how you party!

Matt Stieg

Is this the same place as the old "Hollywood Raiford's"?? It's been years, but that place was a trip - was a house turned into a disco that only served 40oz beer from the "kitchen" window with the dining room as the dance floor. I'm assuming they moved & upgraded to an actual club. If the same, even new location, I totally understand the ratings as either 5 star or 1 star....NOT for everyone.

Wayne Tables

Best place in the world

GOD Is The Only Answer

RIP YOU WILL BE MISSED

Jeffrey Pritchard

This Place is Awesome Had Some of Tha Best Times of my Life Here!! Talk About Dancen Ur Ass Off O Yea I Did!!

Keepit Simple

It's always a good time here definitely need to add another bar

Tiffany Armstrong

It was a very bright atmosphere. It is a CASH ONLY night club. The music is very loud but he DJ does play a good variety of music.

A MacStar

Cash only... bummer

J.R. Parsons

Always seems like a good idea at the time, but you'll regret it in the morning. Honestly, it's worth doing once, but only once. Overpriced cover & drinks (& borderline creepy).

Andrew Pratt

Phenomenal disco party. Open drum set, smoking and lighted dance floor. Wait was over 45 min and staff was (understandably) very curt.

S Tagavilla

I was willing to dish out the cover charge because of the reviews; however, we left within an hour from boredom. The staff was very pleasant, but the crowd was not our style at all. Think rude, super-drunken frat boys & sorority girls...not a very diverse crowd. I also was disappointed in the music. For a disco, there was a surprising lack of disco played. I understand mixing it up a bit, but I would have expected a good portion to be older music. The place was also a bit too bright for a club. Once was enough for me.

Rendi Johnson

The armed Security here is just amazing! Doing all that they can to protect all customers and staff!

Terry Wright

Great place to have a Great time and meet Beautiful people

Robbie Hiltonsmith

One of the coolest, chillest, most welcome dance spots I've ever been to.

John Rogers

Way too much smoke , ridiculous cover charge, employees acted like they didn't want to be there , waited on my food forever and then when they brought it to me ,it wasn't even hot ! A PISS POOR PLACE !!!

Sophia Ward

I really enjoyed my visit to that club.6
