    This is one of the most beautiful and relaxing bakeries or coffee shops I have been to. Their service was excellent. The staff were kind and quick. The coffee was very good. I ordered a vanilla latte. It wasn't too hot to enjoy. I also had their French toast. The bread was fluffy and the flavors were all so easy to identify and fit perfectly together (vanilla, caramel, butter). It was perfect. I cannot wait to visit again!

    Always enjoy a stop at hustle and dough for a bite to eat! I also got to try the edible Memphis championsip latte which was called a meadow latte. It was yummy I enjoyed the lavender cold foam!

    French Fries Bravas

    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!

    Bourbon Mocha

    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.

    Sausage Pizza with Pepperoni and hot honey

    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.

    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.

    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.

    This is crazy....i barely moved this around. Presentation terrible. Peel still on the fruit. CRAZYYYYY

    Update: just went by for the first time in years. The smell was so strong and so fragrant my wife and I left after being there for just a few minutes. Idk who owns this place but if it could ever get back to the days when vice and virtue was in there, man they were the best coffee shop/bakery in town

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Yogurt parfait - so good!! Picture doesn't do it justice.
    Megan V.

    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!

    Avocado toast
    Erin M.

    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.

    Ask the Community - Hustle & Dough

    Are there any gluten free options for toasts or other things? I didn't see any on the menu. Thanks!

    Not at this time. It's a very small operation (and kitchen), and any alternatives would need to be prepared in a dedicated environment to be completely gluten-free.

Sunrise Memphis did not disappoint. We stopped in around 12:30 p.m. on a Wednesday and didn't experience any crowds or much of a lunch rush. That being said, after eating here, I completely understand why people mention waiting hours on weekends. The ordering process is simple: walk up to the counter, place your order, grab a number, and seat yourself. I appreciated that they offer both breakfast and lunch all day because it meant we didn't have to choose between the two. I ordered the chicken tenders with tater tots and an Arnold Palmer. Everything was fresh, hot, and exactly the kind of comfort food you crave in the middle of a long road trip. Kyler ordered the Kitchen Sink, which came with eggs, bacon, hash browns, grits, and a biscuit. He asked if he could swap the cheesy grits and biscuit for biscuits and gravy, and they ended up bringing him everything anyway! It was a massive meal, but absolutely delicious. Beyond the food, the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. I also loved the fun, eclectic atmosphere. The colorful Memphis touches throughout the restaurant gave it so much personality, and there was even a bar area that made me think this would be an absolute blast for brunch with friends. Sunrise Memphis ended up being one of our favorite surprises of the entire drive. If you're passing through town, do yourself a favor and stop here.

I had a fantastic espresso martini and the best brussel sprouts I've ever tasted! So I was excited to come try something else. On the plus side, the bathroom was so nicely decorated. It was also very clean. I sat at the end of the bar, beside the little section of books. The bartender was nice. I ordered the Ember&Passion cocktail. Although it was pretty good, it was quite mild. Unexpected with the ingredients in it. I was surprised that the level of expected heat was not very detectable. I give it 7/10. When I came here before in the winter, the temperature was perfect and I don't remember being too bothered that they don't have cocktail napkins. But yesterday it was quite warm in the restaurant and not having these napkins wasn't good. Nobody in the restaurant had any type of napkin under any drink! I noticed that just like mine, every glass of water from every patron had a puddle of condensation under the glass. Each time I picked up my glass of water, it would drip onto my food and clothes. My two menus got so wet. I suppose they made this decision to save themselves a lot of money. As for the food: My parmesan truffle fries were excellent!! Hot, crispy on the outside and perfectly cooked in the middle. Best I've had in a long time. The Alabama white sauce on the side was just your typical sauce. It tasted just like every other Alabama white sauce that I've had so was not disappointing. But I actually ended up not using it because it was too thin and it didn't add anything to the fries. The fries were excellent enough on their own. I ordered my burger "pink" but there wasn't any pink to it, but I wasn't that bothered about it. Burger and the toppings were tasty, except for the fried green tomato. Looking closely at the picture, you can see that it was SO SMALL compared to the size of the burger. When a restaurant does that, don't they realize that it makes for a glaring disappointment?! It apparently came from near the end of the tomato, and not the middle. If you are going to offer a fried green tomato on a burger, then I feel as if you should only use the larger slices of the tomato, and save the smaller ends for maybe putting in salads. I've always been obsessed with fried green tomatoes. After having my first two bites of burger and still not reaching the tomato, I took it off to eat by itself. Sadly, it tasted terrible! I was surprised. Obviously, they didn't season the tomato or the batter. (Salt and pepper go a long way.) The burger toppings apparently made the tomato batter not only soggy, but also this strange thick texture. Like mushy and chewy at the same time. 1/10 Worst problem: FLIES!!! So many flies! When I just had my drink but no food yet, I noticed them but was not bombarded by them at that point. It wasn't until my food came. All of a sudden I was literally surrounded by them. They were everywhere! No exaggeration. I actually had to use only one hand to eat and the other hand to constantly move back and forth over my food. I eventually gave up and set the plate of some of my fries about 4 inches in front of my burger in order to hopefully draw the flies to the fries so that I could eat my burger. Unfortunately, after only four bites of my burger, when I set it down to take a drink of water, a fly landed on it within one second. Obviously, that was my last bite, and even when I was moving the plate closer to the end of the counter, two more flies landed on it. The glass of straws was inches from me. That, and the book closest to me seemed to be where they gathered to wait for their opportunity to dive bomb me. So many of them! It turned my stomach when I realized that I had been drinking from a straw with my water and I'm sure there had been flies on it before I got there. Every person that gets a straw in their drink at this restaurant has had a fly sitting on top of it. When the bartender told me about the desserts, it turned my stomach to think of just how many flies were in the kitchen. Had I known the fly situation was that bad when I first got my drink, I would have never stayed there, and I certainly would have never ordered food. I do think it is a real shame because the winter months are a totally different experience in that restaurant. But because of how horrible it was this time, I just can't ever come back.

    This place is just wonderful. We came at the height of the day around 11:30 and 15th in line! Time…read morepassed and we were finally seated after maybe a good hour and some change. Marissa our server was nice and offered suggestions which I loved because we, a party of four wanted to try everything. The vibe was very nice. It was busy but not chaotic. The washroom is very nice and spacious and good mirror ladies, wink, wink. The food was amazing. The flavors, the presentation and the taste was 10 out of 10. We had favorites and of course but overall a good brunch spot and low key worth the hour plus wait. The staff was pleasant and smiled walking by and someone came with tab on wait time for food and the price point is excellent. This place has screened in patio seating, main dining area and a bar and still seemed comfortable and cozy. This place is definitely worth the hype!

We did see that there's plenty of tables available and figured it might be due to understaff. Overall service was very slow. From being seated to taking orders and food being served. Unfortunately my egg Benedict came with the eggs being soft boiled rather than runny. Other than that, it's decent compared to the other outlet.

The food however was honestly meh (in my opinion). I got a creole dish and to be fair my dish looked beautiful. The plating was 10/10 but the taste for me left something to be desired. After eating this dish I questioned if I even like creole sauce because it really just wasn't that good. If this is a preference issue, I honestly don't know. I also thought the charcuterie appetizer had a weird mix of items on it from club crackers, to meat and cheese, and random veggies. Not bad but just kind of a weird mix. My husband ordered the salmon and he said it was good, not the best he's had but it was good. Other friends of ours got the white fish among the many other dishes. I did have a salad with these apples on it which was incredibly yummy. I will say though my dish looked amazing some of the other dishes were not plated well. Not to nitpick but to want to be considered a more upscale restaurant which means charging guest more money than say a local Applebee's then knowing how to appropriately garnish or drizzle sauce to elevate at plate is important (see my picture of the chicken dish). All and all not my favorite restaurant but definitely not the worst!!

The place looks like a renovated home that is cozy and comfortable. It is decorated nicely with a country charm vibe. I have been here before for dinner and brunch. The food is delicious and quite filling. I ordered the patty melt that included two meat patties, rye bread, Swiss cheese, jalapeño cheese sauce, caramelized onions and mushrooms. It was divine. The bread was toasted just right. I ate half of it and took the delicious other half of my sandwich home. We also tried the pimento cheese too. It was very yummy!

The atmosphere? FIRE. The vibe? Definitely FIRE! What really made the evening special was the experience. We got to create our own flower bouquets, which was such a fun and unique touch. Great food, beautiful drinks, good energy, and something interactive to enjoy with the other Yelp Elites--it was the perfect combination. Magnolia & May has a warm, inviting atmosphere that makes you want to sit back, sip your drink, eat good food, and enjoy yourself. I had an amazing time and would absolutely return. And yes...I'm still thinking about that fried broccoli!

    An amazing breakfast that was well worth the wait! A true hidden gem that is a must try…read more We came for breakfast on a Saturday around 10. When we first pulled up, the line was out the door, so we knew it was good. We waited maybe about 15 minutes, and then we were let inside where we placed our order at the countertop. The menu is pretty big, so there were lots of options to pick from. I got the rooster, a fried chicken sandwich, and others got the kitchen sink plate with a Bloody Mary. After you placed your order, you found an open table. All of the tables were clean and accessible. I loved the vibe! Very up beat breakfast theme. Soon after we got a table, our food arrived. It was hot, fresh, and delicious! We all basically licked our plates clean lol. After they drop off your food, there is no 'service' so you do have to get everything yourself. But, I loved this actually since it was casual and it gave you an opportunity to get up and explore a tad bit. When we were done, the 'server' took our plates and we were out the door. The line outside kept steady! But, I see why! It was a great way to start the day.

I ordered the "Kitchen Sink" along with a side of biscuits and gravy, and everything was outstanding. The biscuits were fresh, fluffy, and easily some of the best I've ever had. The bacon was thick-cut, salty, crispy, and cooked perfectly. Every bite was excellent. I got takeout, so I can't really comment on the atmosphere or service, but the food alone was enough to impress me. I'm only in Memphis for two days, and this place was so good I'm already planning to come back tomorrow to try the breakfast tacos. Highly recommend if you're looking for an amazing breakfast spot in Memphis.
