A smooth and flavorful cortado and tasty, filling hamburger started my late breakfast day in Memphis. 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. read more

Hustle & Dough in Memphis is such a fun little gem to stumble across. The whole space feels cozy and inviting, but also a step above your usual coffee-and-pastry spot. The aesthetic is really well done. It's warm, modern, and just a place you actually want to hang out in for a while. The staff were great and super helpful, especially when it came to working around a few syrups they were out of. They offered substitutions without any fuss, and it honestly worked out for the better. All of their syrups are made in-house, and you can really taste the difference! They're fresh and not overly sweet or artificial. We ordered a Bourbon Mocha and a Carrot Cake Latte (which was absolutely to die for), and decided to keep breakfast on the lighter side with a slice of sourdough and two cinnamon rolls. The cinnamon rolls, though, are not your typical style. Instead of the usual big, fluffy roll, they spiral the dough tightly and bake it that way. The result is this super fun, peel-apart situation where you're unraveling layer after layer. It feels like there are eight layers of cinnamon-sugar goodness to work through! Overall, Hustle & Dough has great coffee, thoughtful house-made syrups, unique pastries, and a really welcoming vibe. Definitely a spot I'd go back to next time I'm in Memphis. read more

Hustle & Dough - Bourbon Mocha - Bakeries Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

Started off a raspberry mocha latte. Balanced coffee drink. Inreally like when I can still taste the espresso with the syrup and oat milk. 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! read more

Really enjoyed this pizza place. It's inside a very cool boutique hotel in downtown Memphis. The thick cut pizza was outstanding- crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside, and loaded with a ton of flavor. The hot honey was a perfect addition. Chef Kiss. The bartender who took my food order was amazing. She also makes some amazing cocktails. This place has a really great bar and a very sophisticated drink menu. It's a must try if you are in the Memphis downtown area. It's very close to Beale Street. read more

Recently visited and I love the ambiance. Very calm and inviting. Great for alternative work site. Ample seating room, free wifi and outlets. Im not a coffee person but there are teas on the menu. I chose the black tea with lavender added assuming it would be hot. However, it was served iced which threw me off a little. The tea was still good however it didnt help me with the cold weather. Others in my party ordered tea, which was served hot so I was very confused. If I visit again, I guess I'll specific hot as this wasn't asked of me when ordering. Overall, I did enjoy the space. read more

Fast service, plenty of breakfast food options, and excellent coffee with some art! Chill vibe, and relaxing atmosphere.

Atmosphere is 10/10. The cafe is inside a 4 star hotel. Look at the pictures of the hotel lobby, just stunning with reburnished classical design. There are couches and table where you can chill and enjoy some food and drinks. Other reviews about their food looks very good too. But I didn't get to try it . About coffee, look at the picture of my iced latte. It is white. Doesn't taste bad but the barista needs more training for sure. read more

It's not quite fair that I tell you about our time at H&D. I mean that the service was really good and the food was pretty tasty. So why wouldn't it be fair? Great question. We were so hungry that evening downtown that we went into Hustle & Dough while they were renovating the space. That's it. There are little to no available affordable food spots without a waiting list or...with one for that matter. It was a weeknight too! So we didn't care that there was a big plastic sheet hanging from the ceiling and the music of carpentry interrupted the house audio--we wanted FOOD. We got it~ yep, we did. It was a great appetizer and delicious pizza. The service was especially good with all of the commotion. Drop in! It should be just fine by the time you read this. read more

Hustle & Dough was my first brunch experience in Memphis and it left quite the impression! I guess it's fair to say the cafe is located in the Arrive hotel (a separate public entrance). The inside is beautifully eclectic, the staff is very warm and welcoming. We tried the sourdough French toast, avocado toast, and a chai latte. I won't waste time - this is the best French toast I've had. Perfectly griddled with homemade whipped cream. Not overly sweet. The avocado toast - while totally different, was exquisitely presented. It paired really well with siracha. The chai latte was simple yet delicious. The service was outstanding from start to finish. I can't wait to return! read more

We stopped into hustle and dough after a fun day downtown/at the farmers market. We sat outside and enjoyed the sunny weather. The options for breakfast/brunch are smaller but have a wide variety. The avocado toast was incredible! The bread it was on was so delicious. The BLT was also delicious. We also tried the pizza salad combo they have and it was good too! The staff were friendly and communicated when the food took a bit longer than anticipated so that was nice! I look forward to returning! read more

Hustle & Dough is a beautiful cafe that shares space with their bar located in the lobby of the Arrive Hotel. The quirky decor and interior design are artsy and fun! Love the bright colors paired with antique furniture. The host and baristas are all friendly and courteous. I loved their barrel aged bourbon mocha latte and coconut lavender latte. Definitely a must stop when in downtown Memphis. read more

Memphis, TN. I located this establishment by YELP recommendations. Originally I was going to walk the path from the River Crossing, but I needed lunch so I drove. Easy parking on a Sunday.. The staff was mildly friendly, that's ok, better than grumpy. There was some famous musician there (No, I don't know who it was). He was being interviewed on camera and his whole band was participating. Steph got her picture taken with him but I still don't know much about him. My turkey sandwich was almost all bread, maybe two very thin slices of turkey. Steph's sandwich was similar, she got more out of it (Flavor wise) by discarding the top piece of bread. Plenty of lettuce in each Sammy though, maybe just call them "Lettuce Sandwiches?" The lattes are weak, I would pass if I were to come this way again. read more

First time in Memphis, and found Hustle & Dough for coffee right down the street from my hotel. I travel A LOT for work and am always trying new cafes and coffee shops, and this will go down as one of my favorite. Didn't plan on getting food, but I love a good yogurt parfait. And OMG am I so glad I ordered it. Such a fun spin on a traditional parfait using mandarin instead of traditional berries. The granola was homemade, and you could tell. The yogurt was whipped to perfection, and not too sweet! The cortado was also excellent, and the ambiance was great. Plenty of comfortable seating and tastefully designed. Highly recommend! read more

I'm aware that on the whole, this place generally gets a good rep; however, in my experience, it's just been pretty average anytime I've been there - including everything from the drinks to the service to the overall flow. I suppose each time I've been there the service has just been so-so (read: inconsistent) and there always seems to be a longer than necessary wait, no matter how many other customers are there. I've been when it was busy and empty, and there was really no difference. Add in just average cocktails, and I'm just left at that - average. You won't ever have an awful experience and everything you get will be fine, but if you're wanting something more than that, this isn't it. But it could be. read more

This place is amazing. Soon as you walk in the decor and vibe makes you want to just sit and relax. Staff was great for recommendations. Came in looking for a snack and was recommended the pizza. Was not expecting what I got. An elegant tray of salad, spices and a worthy pizza. Washed it all down with a nice Latte. Overall I just wanted to camp out and enjoy the ambiance. read more

This review is for my texture people!!!! The coffee is good. I got the bourbon mocha which had good flavor but texturally I probably should have gotten it hot cause cold the mocha curdled at the bottom. Today I got the avocado toast as well. The bread...grilled to perfection. However I don't prefer sliced avocado on toast... it does nothing but fall off. Also not sure who decided to put pepitas on just bread & avocado but it wasn't a good idea to me. Avocado is already creamy & I would have preferred a tomato or some pico or something so the toast was so thick & dry. There wasn't a speck of salt or pepper either making it bland. Not even a squeeze of lime. The toast has potential just needs another level of flavor & texture in my opinion oh and at least some salt & pepper. read more

I have been coming here for years. It is a nice place to work, chat, and eat. I am local, so I have not stayed in the hotel yet, but the staff is always kind and today the manager Richie and his staff went out of their way to make me and my furry friend comfortable. I am so grateful for this location and would recommend it to anyone! PS. The Lavender syrup is seasonal and worth the hype. PSS. You can buy loafs of the bread they serve and after tasting, you will understand why I included this important information, ha. read more

Cute cafe in Memphis! I love the decor inside - a lot of bright colors, eclectic furniture like turtle couches and varied texture.

This is a great place for a quick breakfast bite and coffee. We had and pastries and coffees here before going to the Civil Rights Museum. They were delicious! My raspberry and pistachio pastry was flaky and flavorful. My latte was also perfect The shop is literally at the trolley stop and is actually in the hotel lobby for Arrive. The breakfast spot shares space with a beautiful looking bar. We shared table space with two women who were staying there for their work and they said the hotel was nice as well. If we visit Memphis again, I would like to also check out the bar. read more

Hello yelp world - I don't typically write reviews nor consider my experiences to be indicative of an establishment's value. While that may be the case, I do feel compelled to to share a bit of my perspective of H&D. Most customers at Hustle and Dough are simply passing through, likely due to its location within the lobby of Arrive Hotel. Since the primary customer demographic may only have one to two experiences with the cafe, the majority of reviews are through the lens of first impressions - whether good or bad. My perspective, though not more significant, is a little different. As a life long Memphis resident, specifically in the South Main neighborhood, has not only been a place with high-quality coffee, beautiful aesthetic, and a pleasant atmosphere, it has most significantly been a consistent place of welcome. Customers can sit here for hours with deep assurance of their safety downtown, value to the staff, and enjoyment of great food and coffee. H&D is definitely a must in Memphis, and when you go, say "hi" to Richie for me! read more

Easily my favorite coffee shop in Memphis. Hustle & Dough on South Main is so much more than a coffee shop -- it's like the living room of our downtown community. I've spent countless mornings and afternoons here meeting friends, working, or just soaking in the vibe. The coffee's incredible (get the Bourbon Mocha -- trust me), and the food is next-level. The French toast and avocado toast are both unreal. The space itself is beautiful -- seriously one of the most stylish spots in the city. It's got this perfect mix of Memphis history and modern design -- old maps and antiques mixed with clean lines and cozy corners. Whether you're here to catch up with someone or get a few hours of work done, there's a perfect spot waiting for you. But honestly, what makes this place special is the people. The staff are always kind, welcoming, and they somehow remember you -- you feel like you belong here. And the crowd is always a fun mix -- hotel guests, locals, artists, business folks, even the occasional celebrity. It's just a really special place that brings people together. If you're in downtown Memphis, this is the spot. read more

Just as awesome as it looks in the pics. The kind of bakery, coffee shop, breakfast nook you wish you had in your neighborhood. Coffee - bold and delicious. Scones, warm and flaky. Mixed berry scone very good, cheddar jalapeño scone exploding with flavor. The Brussels salad and grits bowl exceeded the high expectations set by the Yelp photos and reviews. The grits weren't gritty, they were smooth and creamy. And the date maple syrup, complemented with little puddles of butter - rich sweetness. The sunny side egg on the salad was lightly and perfectly done, just waiting for the wet yolk to be popped and blended with the Brussels. If I lived within a half hour drive this would be a regular morning Mecca. Next time I'm in Memphis I might have to stay at the Arrive hotel just to have H&D an elevator ride away. Hustle on down to the Hustle & Dough! read more

This place fell off so long ago. Used to be the best place for a coffee and breakfast. Sadly, it's become a laughing stock. Formerly these menu items were 10/10: Yogurt and granola Choc chip cookie Banana bread As of today I wouldn't order any of it again. It's as if they went from a baker and legitimate culinary staff, to a former cafeteria worker at the VA. Coffee was average, some roaster from Louisiana. It's sad, a once Memphis gem has become gross and honestly the entire time I was in there they were playing blues music...brother it's a coffee shop in 2025 I don't wanna listen to BB King shred for 3 hrs. Not to mention the smell. I couldn't tell if someone just used dry shampoo as an air freshener or if they genuinely think their customers want to smell synthetic chemicals while they chill. Who is managing this disaster?? Give me back my favorite spot with the line out the door any time I go. Look at the amount of yogurt in the bowl w the grapefruit. It's clear the quality is gone. Wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy. The granola tasted terrible too. The dude brought it to me from the kitchen with his gloves still on read more

Date of visit: August 9, 2023 We needed a little recharge after an early flight to Nashville and then the three hour drive to Memphis and Hustle & Dough was the perfect place to do that! Full of cozy chairs and small tables for laptops, we observed a variety of peeps enjoying coffee or a snack while working, lounging, or lounging while they were supposed to be working. While the small kitchen takes a bit to serve up items for groups, everything that comes out is quite good. I would have preferred the Bourbon Mocha to be a bit sweeter, but I'm sure that I could have rectified that if I had tried. Also scored some cute dog biscuits for my fur child and met an adorable puppy named Penny! read more

Friendly staff. I ordered an almond milk latte on my way out of the hotel, it was kinda pricey but it was made well. Also got some pastries to go.

Great food. Excellent service. Cozy atmosphere. Definitely recommended for a light lunch or afternoon snack.

Cute ambiance, friendly service, and great bites! We found this place because it's one of the few spots open on a Monday morning in the area. We tried a cortado, which was perfect in every way, Brussels salad-literally top 5 salads I've ever had. Lemony tangy dressing, salty crispy pancetta, toasty croutons, crunchy Brussels and cabbage, and the runny egg was just the "icing on the cake"! Hubs got the fried bologna sammich which was humongous and delicious. We split the soup of the day which was roasted red pepper. This was the only letdown as it was cold and flavorless. We finished off with Banana bourbon chocolate bread (cake) which was divine!! Would return when in Memphis :) read more

Seriously, the best avocado toast I've had! I was just glad I could find a seat because apparently this is the weekday SPOT! The folks who work there are pretty cool and had no problem helping me order. Because I walked in out of pure interest. I got the avocado toast with absolutely no changes but the next time I go, I'm going to get extra garlic pepitas (those lil things are good lol)! I also ordered an iced bourbon mocha and had it not been during work hours, I would've had to ask the bar for a shot of bourbon...it's GOOD and dark. Loved it!
