The basics

Since 1876, A. Schwab has expanded its footprint on Beale Street to provide an old-fashioned experience while carrying more contemporary goods. You’ll find anything and everything on the store’s two creaky wooden floors, including books, dry goods, jewelry, and local souvenirs. You can visit anytime during operating hours, though some visitors prefer to pass by on a walking tour to learn more about A. Schwab and the other original stores that once lined Beale Street.
