Club 662, Tied to Tupac and Suge Knight, Is Now Hamburger Mary's
Suge Knight's old Club 662 is gone — Hamburger Mary's drag brunch now runs where Tupac Shakur was headed the night he was shot in 1996.
Published · 4 min read
The Henderson building once known as Club 662 — Suge Knight's Death Row hangout and the destination Tupac Shakur never reached the night he was shot in 1996 — isn't a nightclub anymore. It's a Hamburger Mary's, complete with drag brunch and a burger menu. With interest in the case renewed by the 2023 arrest of Duane "Keffe D" Davis, Vegas411 breaks down what's actually standing at that Warm Springs Road address today versus what true-crime searches keep suggesting.
Quick Facts
- What: The former Club 662 building (also once known as Club 662 Las Vegas) is now operating as Hamburger Mary's
- Historical significance: Suge Knight owned the club; Tupac Shakur was shot on the Strip the night he was headed to a party there in September 1996
- Current use: Restaurant and bar, part of the Hamburger Mary's chain known for drag brunch and LGBTQ-friendly programming
- Worth knowing: The murder itself did not happen at the club — Tupac was shot in a drive-by near the Strip and died days later at University Medical Center; Club 662 was the intended destination that night
Suge Knight bought the club in the mid-90s and ran it as a Death Row Records hangout, the kind of room where you’d see Death Row artists any given night. On September 7, 1996, Tupac and Knight left the MGM Grand after the Mike Tyson-Bruce Seldon fight, got into a shooting on Las Vegas Boulevard, and Tupac was hit multiple times. He died six days later. He never made it to Club 662 that night. The club’s name stuck to the story anyway, because that’s where the group was headed when the shooting happened, and because Knight’s ownership tied the venue permanently to Death Row’s orbit.
That association is the reason the property still pulls search traffic three decades later. People type in “Club 662” wanting to know if the building still stands, whether you can visit it, what’s there now. The answer is yes, it stands, and no, it's not a shrine or a nightclub anymore.
From Death Row Hangout to Drag Brunch
Hamburger Mary’s operates in the space now. The chain is known nationally for drag brunch, campy decor, and a menu built around burgers, though the Henderson location carries the history whether the current operators lean into it or not.
That’s the part locals find funny. A building tied to one of hip-hop’s most infamous unsolved murders is booking drag queens on a Saturday afternoon instead of Death Row artists at midnight. Nevada authorities have never closed the Tupac case; an arrest was made in 2023 in connection with the killing, tied to Duane “Keffe D” Davis, and that case has moved through the Clark County court system separately from anything happening at the physical building. The venue and the case are two different storylines now — one a cold case turned active prosecution, the other a Henderson restaurant with a burger menu and a drag show schedule.
I get why the search traffic exists. True crime interest in the Tupac case never really dies down, especially with the Keffe D arrest bringing new attention to old details. People want to know what’s left of that era. What's left, physically, is a building doing something completely unrelated to why it got famous.
Why "Club 662" Still Comes Up in Searches
Part of the mix-up online is that “Club 662” gets referenced in documentaries, podcasts, and true-crime YouTube breakdowns without anyone updating what’s currently at that address. Search a location tied to a 30-year-old murder case and you’ll pull up old crime scene photos, old news footage, and zero current information. That’s the gap Vegas411 is filling here.
People do drive out to see it. What’s there now is a Hamburger Mary's — burger menu, drag brunch on the schedule, nothing preserved from the Death Row Records era. Check the Hamburger Mary's locations page before you go. Hours and drag brunch scheduling vary by location, and you don’t want to show up expecting a show that isn’t running that day.
For background on the case itself, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department's ongoing case files and reporting from outlets that covered the Keffe D arrest are the better resource than anything you'll find standing in the parking lot in Henderson.
