The atmosphere and decor of this coffee shop are both inviting and antique bringing feelings of the historic times and souls once living in the area. The "team"working here were both professional, kind and friendly. When eating in your entree is hand delivered with a smile in a timely manner. I even got a brief visit from the supervisor/possible owner asking if I needed anything and how everything was going. When I replied with a positive experience he said he will pass on the word to the team. I liked that he gave credit to everyone/team. I will definitely return when in town for business and recommend to my colleagues.

Had pizza and fries for dinner as we hung out last night with friends to catch up during the holiday. The pizza was quite tasty. I enjoyed the sourdough bread that was topped with cheese, white sauce and mushrooms. The pizza dough reminded me of focaccia. Very pillowy and seasoned well. The bottom was crunchy and tasty. The fries were good but the kitchen was out of aioli. Still the fries were hot and the salsa added a different flavor. Service was excellent at the coffee bar. Shoutout to Caleb and his nice, courteous and helpful demeanor. The server at the bar was so nice too. I forgot his name but he was super friendly. My pizza was 1/2 off since it was 4-6 which is the scheduled happy hour. The cool vibes of the hotel lobby are ultra inviting with chairs, sofas, community table and side tables. I really like the aesthetics of the Arrive Hotel. Hope to stay in one of the rooms for a stay cation in the Mtown! I know I will be back for coffee and other foods at Hustle and Dough!

You log into an app on your phone and there are all kinds of people saying things, calling attention to themselves and others, making videos, sometimes of themselves, sometimes of them using products and telling you to buy things. Most recently she is on some food reviewers that review food in their car while they eat on camera. Big Term and the Pizza Guy I think are their names. Big Term got his teeth done since the last time she showed me a video of his. It must pay well. His wife stars in some of his videos and she is extra gross with all that open mouth chewing. Ewwwww Personally I can't stand watching folks smack their mouths and eat food in the car. I find it absolutely vile and most unentertaining. How did we get here as a society? It's nasty. I don't even take pics of food with bites taken from them. Just ewwwwweewwwe Now.... You may ask.... Why in the hell did I start with that? This is how I got here. These folk infiltrated my girls feed and have got her wanting to go to some interesting places we would have never gone before. Walk in and it's a hodgepodge of stuff going on inside. Some BB King memorabilia, some cool rock and roll murals, that kind of thing. It's an interesting vibe. There are a couple conditioned patios that provide majority of the seating. Multi levels inside that would prove to be difficult for me a year ago. Now I am a real boy again though! We were sat near the front entrance. Folks waiting for to go were abound. They do a great take out business and stayed busy with take out the entire time we were there. Food took every bit of 45 minutes after we ordered. The first 15 min of that was because our server never rang it in to begin with. Pair this with it taking 15-20 to actually take our order to begin with, and it's a really long time to wait. It's ok. But not really though. Most people came and went while we sat without food. Finally someone who looked like a manager recognized we had been there for an excessive amount of time and gets things going. Thanks man. Food arrives and I am starving! C's pancakes looked great and my chicken and waffle looked pretty promising. I had never had C&W before but this seemed like a good place to start trying them. C liked her Chef breakfast with pancakes and did not even use syrup on them. I did use it on my waffle, which was pretty good of what I could eat of it. It was way more dense than I expected. I got seasoned chicken wings and they were cooked and seasoned well. The sausage is really tasty! I started this as a 4, but slid to a 3 as I wrote it, and here is why. The dang plastic ware they give you with your meal. It's the absolute cheapest you can get I would bet. People make mistakes, forget things, and kitchens get backed up, but serving that plastic crap is a choice! I'll bring my own in next time if we make it back. I gave up eating my waffle because I could not cut the damn thing with that liquid knife and fork you gave me! The knife folded under any pressure at all and the fork would not penetrate the waffle. Please buy better stuff for your guests to eat with. You have plates and cups, why not silverware? '25 - 104/111

I love the ambiance and the vibe of the place; it's pretty neat how it used to be a theatre, and they have kept presence of that history in the place. Beyond that, there's very little that pushes me to really want to go to this place, while at the same time acknowledging that I don't find myself being negative if a friend or someone else picks here. The food is decent, the service is really hit or miss, and I've always found them to be quite slow ... so it just hits average for me. Not something I'm picking but not something I'm dreading if it is picked.

The food and coffee was so delicious. I wouldn't say I'm a food snob, but I'm particular about breakfast foods, and this made me very happy. We each ordered a coffee and the bacon potatoes to share. I ordered the Juniper Benedict and my friend ordered the loaded biscuits and gravy. The bacon potatoes were cooked perfectly, soft and slightly crunchy with plenty of cheese and bacon. The eggs in my eggs Benedict were cooked perfectly and they used a regular house-made biscuit that soaked up the egg yolks perfectly. The restaurant was pretty big, but the ambiance felt like a small-town diner. The staff was super kind and attentive, too. The cost is par for the course for a nice diner in a big city. TLDR: Not a bad word to say about this place.

If I were to really put the time and effort into understanding and then describing my favorite…read morekinds of places to eat it would tell a story, and that story would likely end up sounding like The Second Line feels to me. I feel like this place embodies the essence of my inner peace somehow. It was born as a overflow bar for Iris from the lore I hear. To me, as I see it, this place became Chef Kelly's escape to reality as far as food, atmosphere, and service are concerned. I think this place presents his personality in his relaxed more chill version. If you have ever been to Iris, specifically, when it was next door, you would understand what I mean. When it was the tiny place it had some kind of pretentiousness to it that just turned me off. I only ate there once. It would take weeks to get a reservation before he moved it and the constant limelight had to be a lot of pressure. This place though.... I could come here three times a week no issue. In fact, I actually wish that I could eat here three days a week. Second Line is moving soon. They are going back to being next door to Iris in the newer Laurelwood location. In some ways I wonder if Chef needs that jovial comfort of a place next to Iris to keep him grounded. I do hope the charm of this is somehow transferred, but looking out the windows into Cooper the last time I was here Dec '25, just will not be a possibility in that shopping center it's headed to. That will be lost. He's a great guy! Hell of a Chef! World class employer! Tremendous philanthropist! A leader in the City of Memphis! Please go support him in the new location. Now.... All that BS and I ain't said shit about the food and why I like this place so much. If you scroll through my photos you will see almost every dish that has ever been on the menu here. Some are fantastic! All are very good! I have had nothing but great food here for many years! I have only had one bad meal here. Catfish Picante and it is long gone it seems! I wrote a long ass draft I never published (thank god), after that visit. I do believe it was my first time here and I almost didn't return. What a waste that would have been. My favorites now are Sweet Heat Oysters, Chicken Livers with pepper jelly, that lobster knuckle sandwich from waaaay back, spinach Madeline, and of course... the Red Beans and Rice. The desserts are always killer as well. I guess I'll catch you at the new place soon! Love you guys!! '25 - Finale
