Did I enjoy my food? No. Did I enjoy my experience? No. Did I get what I paid for? No. Am I coming back? No. Will I recommend it? No. Will I pick up the broken pieces and move on with my life? Yes. I paid way too much for what I got. I did not get a fair exchange. They do not have a meal deal, a combo, or lunch special either. After ordering and paying, I went to wash my hands. My soup was on my table, so I helped myself. The soup wasn't terrible, but it wasn't great. I like to eat it with my sandwich for dipping effect, so I patiently awaited the arrival of my sandwich trying not to finish the soup, but finishing it anyway because it was getting cold. Walked to the register but couldn't get anyone's attention, so returned to my table. Approached the register again twenty minutes after finding my soup on the table and was handed a plastic container with a cold sandwich. The bread was slightly burned. The sandwich was just shy of an inch thick. If you google images for club sandwiches, I don't think there's a single one that can fit into an average jaw, due to the massive height to it. I felt I'd been cheated. It wasn't a club at all. And I also got the impression that the bacon had been bought fully cooked. read more

Can't believe I've been in Memphis this long and have never been to the High Point Terrace Shops, though I pass the area almost weekly on the greenline. Visited Cheffie's based on positive yelp reviews/chatter. Was amazed at how spacious the place is. There's way more room than there are tables and chairs. You can create your own sandwich or salad or order their theme sandwiches and salads. I chose the Santa Fe salad with Buttermilk Ranch with a bowl of Italian sausage and spinach soup (yeah, hadn't eaten all day). Both were pretty tasty. Along with the aforementioned items Cheffie's has an assortment of hand-crafted beers, their own (locally-roasted) coffee and a gelato station. The have an awesome deck (built around a massive tree). Perfect setting to eat and people watch. Throughly enjoyed myself and I'll be back. read more

Don't toast the bread AFTER you make the sandwich. They need to toast the bread before making the sandwich. Food is good but it's a huge mistake on our side when they asked us if we want the bread be toasted and we said yes... it's a total disaster! The sandwich became soggy, the bread breaking apart and the food pieces between bread dropping like crazy. imagine that one of the sandwich we ordered was their famous egg sandwich and kept breaking apart while eating it... the hands were all wet and sticky... ahhh... the other sandwich was BLT and same situation, fighting and competing with the food dropping. It's like you need to eat faster or before the inserts dropped out. If you order a sandwich here, my suggestion is: Good luck! read more

I used to adore this place until the last year or so. Mainly due to the customer service. I've had specific items that I've paid for left out of my order. And no one cared. I paid for bacon and avocado on separate occasions, in which I received neither. The restaurant only offered to provide the topping free on my next order. This doesn't address the inconvenience of the order not being prepared correctly the FIRST time, or the inconvenience of me having to drive there again and pay for another order to be made "whole". Additionally, the store has closed early without any notification any where in sight. I drove across town to place order only to see the staff starting to shut the store down and halt any incoming orders. I was turned away. To top it off, today I ordered a Cobb salad. Only to receive a bowl of blue cheese crumbles. I didn't customize extra blue cheese, go easy on the lettuce. Give customers what is ordered, not what you EXPECT they would enjoy. If I order a salad, I actually want the lettuce. I'm super annoyed by this. Especially, since I know contacting the store will resort in hardly any resolution. Who owns these stores and why don't they care? The menu items are fairly pricey compared to other restaurants of the same type. I'd at least think they'd care to provide superior quality and customer service to account for the SUPERIOR prices. I ordered a Cobb salad. Not a blue cheese crumble salad. No human on earth would want a salad saturated and covered with blue cheese crumbles. This caused my salad to be gummy and chewy due to the high amount of blue cheese crumbles included in my salad. And barely any lettuce. I hope the restaurant receives this feedback. My salad appeared to be delicious until I tasted. Tell the heavy handed blue cheese sprinkler this is NOT what customers want. I actually had to add my own lettuce to the salad to try to improve it. I'm extremely annoyed. When I order a salad, that's what I expect. Not a blue cheese bowl and toppings. Do better and charge less if you're not going to deliver good service. Simple. Thanks so much for my blue cheese bowl. Hopefully, the sandwich will be better. read more

Seriously love the salads and how they are all chopped and mixed. So many tasty choices. Curry chicken salad is awesome and salads are huge. Roast beef sandwich is good too. read more

Great people. Great, healthy food. The best place in Memphis for salads. Everyone who works here is super kind and helpful. COVID hasn't changed that a bit. They are still helpful and kind. They are working hard to keep everyone safe too. They clean the tables very well after every customer. It's a great place to eat. read more

What in the world happened to cheffies. I used to love it but now it's trash. Like 2 slices of meat in my sandwich how do you put something in a panini press and it's still cold? Not to mention the soup taste like it been frozen a sandwich and a soup cost $20 seems and don't get my started on the staff. owner/manager if you're reading this you're failing go back to how it was a year ago Lol read more

Man I hate writing this because all of the workers are so nice every time. I live in the area and like most ppl love the convenience of cheffies. Last time I went was 6 months ago and saw flies on the Turkey and ham meat just sitting uncovered in the back in a massive pile. Not in a refrigerator or anything. Today I decided to give it another chance and saw the exact same thing. Just grossed me out a lot and makes me question some of their food safety tactics! I know the flies are bad everywhere this time of year but maybe at least put plastic wrap over uncovered meat? read more

We are visiting Memphis and decided to stop by. The building is brick and charming. There are mostly sandwiches and salads. I decided on the create your own salad. You can choose you lettuce, protein, cheese, crunch, veggies, dressing and more. The portion is so large it's enough for two people or another meal at least. Everything tasted fresh. The people were very courteous and helpful. I'd totally recommend this place. read more

Such a great chopped salad, and made to your liking! I personally get their curry chicken salad chopped/mixed into a romaine salad with lots of fun toppings. The large is big enough for two meals, which is an added bonus. :) read more

This place is my favorite salad bar and sandwich restaurant in Memphis. I always seem to get the Santa Fe salad or crunchy roast beef sandwich. The salad is so good and well mixed with ingredients. The sandwich also just is comfort food and taste so good. They are also decently fast. The only problem I have with them is that the way to dispose of your tray and dishes is cluttered and confusing. Also, the staff is a little lackadaisical. Otherwise, I would def go here again and enjoy the food. read more

Cheffie's Cafe - Salad bar options - Sandwiches Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

I have been to Cheffies before but since COVID their online ordering process is less than positive. I ordered a make your own salad and when I arrived their was no place to park (no designated space) yet they offer curbside. In addition the number the online ordering process says to call to let them know I have arrived has been disconnected. Finally, their online system doesn't allow you to select the preference for your salad to be chopped (in person they offer this option) and the menu options don't allow you to mention a comment or select and option to omit ingredients. Overall give had such issues with ordering online, the process needs to be reviewed. read more

Yummy! Fresh! Great service! Ice cold cold beer on tap. I got the turkey sandwich with few modifications... wheat bread was thick fresh, nutty, turkey tasted great, and spinach white cheddar just added to a mouthfull of flavor for me! Sandwich was so big, only could eat half of it! Love it! Get a beer, each a sandwich and support your local small biz! read more

The best way to describe this place is a salad and sandwich chipotle. I'm not saying that is a bad thing, I thought that this place was really neat. Between the bbq and heavy food of downtown Memphis, it is nice to have a salad place thrown in the mix. The staff were very nice to us, and were very efficient. I appreciate the conservation efforts of the restaurant, between the serving dishes and utensils, to the cups, which I recommend keeping, as they are made of durable multi use materials that you could use at home. The food was very fresh and tasty. Between the prebuilt selections, and the create your own options, the possibilities are endless. For those who want a break from the bbq, I recommend this place as a go to joint. read more

Great food, as always! Customer service wasn't so good. One of the employees treated us as if she didn't feel like taking care of us and had an attitude (also had AirPods in). I wasn't happy with my salad and she said she couldn't fix it (in the process of making it) because it came that way. Will only be back for the food read more

Put an online order in, showed at the time they said it would be ready. They had not even started making it. Staff was rude,

I always make a stop into Cheffie's whenever I'm in Memphis. It's my favorite place to get a salad in town. When you come into the restaurant, you order at the counter. They have a variety of salad and sandwich options, or you can make your own from any of the ingredients they have out at the salad bar. I recommend the Santa Fe salad - it has black bean, corn, tomatoes, and chicken with a buttermilk ranch dressing. You also have the option to get the salad chopped with dressing mixed in. Always do this!! I don't like bug chunks of lettuce in my salad, and by chopping up all the ingredients, i don't get that. They can then mix the dressing into the salad in a big bowl, which is way better than me trying to mix in dressing with my fork. If you frequent Cheffie's, they have a rewards program that you can sign up for! read more

If you live in Highpoint Terrace, ride your bike over to Cheffie's! I love this neighborhood restaurant that is right off the green line. The atmosphere is great with exposed brick and a cement floor. There isn't waiter service. Instead you walk through a cafeteria line, which can be confusing your first time. The seating is also cafeteria style, so you're sitting with strangers (don't worry, it's fun not awkward). Try any of the salads; they are huge and amazing! read more

I'm a soup and salad junkie. Always have been. I've always been disappointed in the lack of soup and salad places in Memphis. Heck, even a Souper Salad would do in a pinch. I just want a place I can go in and order mounds of veggies and nuggets of deliciousness upon piles of mixed greens. Enter Cheffie's! How no one has ever pointed me in the direction of this salad mecca is beyond my comprehension. It's my oasis in a hot desert with no water. Just what I've been searching for- and search you must. You won't find this place just passing by. Which probably attributes to it taking almost three years to find it. On this particular day, I opted for one of their salad creations. If you're not feeling very creative they do offer some great selections of salad on their menu. If you would prefer, you can build your own. I opted for the curry chicken salad and a bowl of corn chowder. My husband went with the Greek salad and the chowder as well. I'm going to be nice and just say skip the chowder. It was very bland and had little flavor. I only had a few bites and fed the rest to my 10 month old. The salad however was divine. I am kind of in love with that curry chicken salad. Chunks of fresh chicken and apples in a curry dressing mixed with greens and a balsamic vinaigrette- it's perfection. It looks a little boring, but the taste is right on. Their Greek salad was typical, but they didn't skimp on the feta and olives in the slightest. They offer sandwiches, desserts, an entire case of gelato and wine as well. I love everything about this space. It's laid back and the food is great. I predict this will become a regular spot of mine. read more

I wandered off the Greenline and into High Point Terrace hoping to run into the little market I've passed on occasion. Through the haze of Memphis humidity came the Cheffie's sign and it's safe to say I have never been so excited for a salad. We entered and were assaulted by ice cold air conditioning, friendly staff, and delicious smelling food. I opted to build a veggie sandwich instead of a salad. I know, I know...boring. Negative. My sandwich was heaping with practically every veggie they had on the bar, along with spicy hummus and cheese on thick wheat bread. The sandwich was so large that we split it. I'll definitely be back to try out their salads and to sit on their patio with the cool kids. Oh, and they have gelato. We always return for gelato. read more

Cheffie's Cafe - Veggie sandwich - Sandwiches Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

After a 10 year hiatus, Cheffie's has re-opened in High Point Terrace. Clearly, the restaurant was missed because half of Memphis seemed to be having lunch there during the soft opening yesterday. It didn't seem overly packed, though, because the space is so huge. There was plenty of space at the long cafeteria-style tables and at couches. When it's nice out, there are plenty of tables on the shady patio. While Cheffie's has a small menu of classic sandwiches and salads, it's entirely more fun to choose the "create your own" option. You can have the friendly counter staff pile your custom salad or sandwich with as many toppings as you can take for less than $9. I chose a half-sandwich, half-salad option. My sandwich was a generous scoop of egg salad on some of the greatest wheat bread I've ever had. My notes from yesterday describe it as "stupid fluffy. I had my romaine salad topped with sliced egg, blue cheese, celery, bell peppers, red onions and vinegarette dressing. It's worth noting that Cheffie's has plenty of vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free items on the menu, and any of the existing sandwiches or salads can be edited to meet your dietary needs. For dessert, grab one of the huge rice crispy treats, dense hello dollies or home-baked cookies. Once the weather gets a little warmer, I'm going to have a hard time resisting visits to the side counter stocked with gelato, beer and wine. Given their location in a small shopping center High Point Terrace, Cheffie's will probably be packed come summer. The restaurant is about a block north of the Greenline, and they share their space with a bicycle repair shop. read more

Cheffie's Cafe - Half sandwich, half salad - Sandwiches Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

I'm honestly shocked at the fact I haven't written a review. This place makes the best salads by far. I have tried almost all and loved each and every one. Their ingredients are always fresh and wonderful. Sometimes eating a salad makes you look like a huge idiot, but they slice and dice it to perfection so you never have to worry about opening your mouth super wide :). The location is prime time. Highpoint is such a fun, active area and this place really caters to that! I also love that they serve beer, wine, and gelato ice cream. The space itself is pretty big and spacious. Lots of room to sit, and they even have a cute little patio outside! read more

I was a superfan of the old Cheffie's when it was on Mendenhall and Sanderlin. This new Cheffies has caused an uproar in my heart. The premise does not seem the same (take out items ready to go, displayed food in case), but the food quality appears to be unwavering. I ordered the Garden Delight sandwich to go, and grabbed a Pellegrino water by the register for my drink. Napkins were not in the bag, but I was told I could find some near the drink station. Chad, who took my order, was very easy to speak to over the phone (I checked the menu out on their website). Once I opened the sandwich in my car, I saw they'd done everything exactly as asked! Every little thing was just perfect, only it was 10% larger than what I really needed. Delicious tasting sandwich, just what I needed for a late lunh. read more

I stopped in Cheffie's on my way to a client meeting and after not eating all day. I was looking for a little something to put in my stomach. It was Absolutely delicious! The soup was amazing and hit the spot. I wanted to order a salad but didn't have time. I love places that offer fresh veggies that you can customize how you like. I'll definitely be back!!! read more

I'm so happy I was introduced to this place! Always fresh, the quantity is satisfying and the price is worth it. I've had the Cobb salad, the Spinach salad and will be coming back for more. read more

Love that you can make your own salads here! All the ingredients here are so fresh and there is a pretty good variety. The salad bowl itself is HUGE. Fave protein topping is the curry chicken salad. Sandwiches are big as well and look tasty (though I've never actually ordered one - would try next time). Cheffie's is a great place to be a regular and come in for a quick and healthy lunch/dinner. Staff is very friendly and the restaurant is huge with lots of seating and open space! read more

Food was decent but the sandwiches didn't come sides. For the price and quality they really should. Considering all the fees you pay when ordering delivery, it really isn't worth it. read more

Wanted to grab lunch nearby as I had a lot of errands to complete and stopped in. I was surprised. It is beautiful, open, and it makes me want to hangout here with a beer in hand. I sprung for the curry chicken salad while my friend grabbed a turkey sandwich. The salad was perfect---I'm definitely going to make this part of my routine of places to eat. I took advantage of the gorgeous weather and sat outside on their patio. Great for people watching and enjoying the view. This place is a gem in Highland Park! read more

Had the crunchy roast beef. I am still trying figure out why roast beef is in the name. There was so little meat in the sandwich that I couldn't even taste it. For a $9.00 sandwich it should be piled high. Skip this place if you want a sandwich as advertised. You are better off going to a Firehouse or Jimmy Johns. read more

I have been to the Highpoint location on 3 different occasions within the last month and they have been closed. Yesterday, I noticed the hours of operations was removed from their door. As a business, Cheffies need to be more considerate to their consumers. Please update your site when you are closed. Things happen (short staff, no staff, supply chain issues with food), I get it. However, it is extremely annoying to drive to the HighPoint location only to find out its closed after checking your website and it says now open. Additionally, the number listed is a non working number read more

Finally tried Cheffie's! Was running errands and needed a quick lunch. Cheffie's did the job. Great food, even better staff and so many options for everyone. They had 3 soups ( one vegan), a variety of sandwiches, a HUGE salad bars, and yum crunchies to top off your salad. I tried their garden veggie sandwich, but added pesto and asked them to grill it. Added a side of tomato soup. Perfect lunch! The staff is very welcoming and accommodating. I'll definitely be going there whenever I am in the area. read more

First time getting a salad there, and I ordered over the phone. They asked if I wanted it chopped and I said no. When I picked it up I saw the wonderful selection of salad greens and toppings. But, got home and my salad was chopped (to bits), and the dressing was way overdone. BTW, I had asked for dressing on the side - also ignored. So I didn't like my salad at all - ended up throwing most of it out. But I will try them again, only this time made to order as I am standing there. Perhaps that way they will listen to me. read more

a question I never thought i'd ask anyone, but cheffie's...are y'all using artificial hard boiled egg? I ordered the spinach salad which was fantastic...except where I expected fresh chopped hard boiled egg, I found bits of spongy yellow stuff and rubbery white chunks. the only thing I could think of is that they are using artificial hard boiled egg which seems like such a weird corner to cut but okay! next time i'll build my own salad and nix the egg because everything else was great. loved the honey mustard dressing and seasoned croutons, the veggies were fresh, and it's honestly just a relief to have a super healthy meal option in this town (I love you memphis but you and I both know this is a thing). will be back, but with some key edits to my order. read more

Nice variety of toppings for a salad and/or sandwich, a relaxed open environment. Patio seating is popular. Great neighborhood deli style meal. read more

Used Cheffie's for a big catering job last month - 58 boxed lunches. I worked with Jacky beforehand to make arrangements. He was professional and pleasant. On the day of delivery, food arrived a few minutes early, and the driver helped us set up. The order was 100% correct, including custom-made salads and sandwiches, requested to accommodate dietary restrictions. My experience was exceptional, and I'll definitely use Cheffie's catering again. read more

Stopped here on the recommendation of a friend. I got a build your own salad with zesty avocado dressing and chicken. The portion was huge and very filling. The vegetables were crisp and I loved that I could have the salad chopped. I can't wait to go back and try more flavor combinations. The only reason I didn't give five stars was the fact that the ordering process was a little intimidating. The person who made my salad did not any questions along the way so I was confused about what to add at which step of the process. My salad wasn't hopped immediately since there was a queue of salads waiting to be chopped. Because my salad got added to the queue I didn't get the chance to add any "crunch" to my salad but it was delicious without the added crunch. They were swamped when I was there and got us through the line rather quickly being confused during the process was understandable. read more

Cheffie's is a wonderful neighborhood secret located just off the Greenline in East Memphis. The salads and wine are divine. And most recently, the folks there took great care of me after a fairly catastrophic cycling accident. I can't say enough good things about the owner and staff. Their eats are terrific too! read more

My friends and I have been going to Cheffies at least once a week,ussually in the evening to eat and socialize. The temperature started getting colder inside for a couple of weeks,so I brought a tempature gauge from home. The temperature got down to 65. The manager had told us that our group was wellcome to start a game nite there, but the staff have been feezing us out. read more

Delicious! I know it's only a salad but it was so good!! This place is basically like chipotle for salads and sandwiches (the sandwich thing is nothing new). I think the way they chop all your salad items and then toss it the dressing and top with any crunchy bit you've chosen makes all the difference. All the salad bites are the same size, which makes eating it delightful (no big salad chunk to contend with), and the natural juices from the salad toppings mix together with the dressing-it really was so good! Makes me want to buy one of Jose knives so I can make my salads at home sing. If I lived in Memphis I would definitely be a regular! And the next time I'm in Memphis I'll be coming here for salad! read more

Okay how nerdy is this.. just feel me for a few.. okay.. here we go!! So one of my very best friends lives 2 minutes from me down N. Highland. So I run to her house then she and I will walk or run to get food! Enough about J.T. Let's talk about this amazzzziiinnnggg place in Highpoint T. They have the best, most crisp, fresh as you can get, natural/organic items to go in or on the salad, and the homemade dressings are out of this world. I build my own salad only because I'm a bougie queen.. then at the end they ask if you want your salad chopped!! I know I know I was so in awe as well! I know.. I know just thank me later after you finish off one of their massive salads and center yourself around a good nap! Any time at all my friend is like J. Want to run and I'm like yeah. We run straight to this amazing restaurant. Also the staff know everything about their products so no question is too much for them! It's also super clean and they have a nice deck on the side under some huge shade trees.. where you can enjoy a nice lunch/brunch if you will! read more
