On our way out of the Peabody hotel in Memphis, we came across the street and located this place as Yelp recommended it. The Peabody hotel does have a deli with coffee and drinks. However, this location was after we checked out so we decided to try it. When I walked in, there were only about five patrons inside and they were all either studying, working, or ordering something,. It took me a while to order because there were so many options on the menu, but I knew I needed breakfast and there were not a lot of pastries available at 1 PM. I ended up ordering the Iced Matcha Latte with butterscotch syrup added, and the breakfast sandwich on a croissant I requested a chicken sausage instead of the pork or bacon or ham options. The person who took my order, said that she highly recommended the House or Home potatoes for my side dish. I went ahead and ordered that as my side upon her recommendation. The weight was about 10 minutes and it was because they actually make it to order. I was able to peruse around and see the place. Take pictures and wait patiently in a very comfortable chair. My food was to go and the gentleman walked it up to me and so did the barista who made my matcha latte on ice with butterscotch syrup added. They were very customer service oriented and I think them both and went to the car. When I got in the car, my food was absolutely hot and too hot for me to eat so I waited a while. My Matcha latte with butterscotch was delicious and I enjoyed it. When we got a few minutes away, I was able to open up the container for my food and this time aired out so that it could get to a temperature where I can enjoy it. I was very frustrated because I did not get chicken sausage as I had ordered. I got regular pork sausage. Also the Home fried potatoes at first bite were delicious, but after the second and third bite, I started to taste old frying oil that they were cooked in. I did not finish my meal and basically wasted it. I still think this is a good place to come and enjoy a nice beverage and possibly a good pastry, but I probably won't be ordering the home fries again nor the chicken sausage croissant. Other than that disappointment, this was a very nice experience.

Pistachio matcha

Found this coffee shop/ restaurant while visiting Memphis. It's big and bright with lots of seating. The food menu is expansive. I went with the breakfast burrito (comes with 1 meat but I added an extra) and omg it was so delicious especially paired with the gravy. Also had a iced matcha latte with pistachio syrup which was tasty as well. Service was quick and friendly!

Pistachio matcha latte and pistachio latter

Oh my goodness! Yesssss. Support support support! Was greeted with a smiling face and someone who was happy to serve. We ordered two coffees and three breakfast items: breakfast burrito, breakfast bowel, and honey butta chicken sandwich (so tender and juicy and was my favorite) Everything was delicious and the baristas were super helpful and kind!

Delicious breakfast sandwich

Cozy fabulous little place that serves breakfast and lunch... love the breakfast sandwiches.. bagels and croissants are extremely fresh and delicious... the oatmeal was warm and definitely hit the spot on this cold morning.. love the vibe here...

Almond lavender latte
Lisa U.

Ordered almond lavender latte which was delicious, but would have preferred the option to have it in a mug since I chose the dining in option. In any case, For a late breakfast I orders the breakfast plate (scrambled eggs, grits, chicken sausage, and a biscuit). Despite not being terribly busy and having a full 6 people standing around behind the counter, the food took forever to get. By the time I finally asked for a status I noted my order on their screen had already been 26 min in the making. "It's coming" is what I was told. I love that you can choose how you want your scrambled eggs cooked. I chose loose and they were perfect. The grits were very dense, like dough, which I thought I wouldn't enjoy but they were absolutely delicious, and the biscuit was perfect, The only disappointment was the chicken sausage patty. It was like warm and could have used a few more seconds ion the grill. Overall the food was great, servers were sweet. Next time I'm in Memphis I'll stop in again and try their other offerings.. IF I'm not in a hurry.

Matcha latte

Previous to today's interaction I truly loved this place. I love locally owned coffee shops. I had racked up almost 200 "points" eating here since they have opened and the food is really good. But today when I went in, the service really threw me off again this is about my 10th maybe more time eating here. I know the people who work here pretty okay and everything. I ordered the breakfast sandwich, over medium egg, now mind you it's not listed , anywhere I see, on the menu an over medium egg is an extra 2 dollars and some change. But after I left to clock into work and come back, after I had already paid, to pick up my breakfast sandwich, the lady who took my order called me over and said it will be an extra charge of 2 dollars and some change for an over medium egg because jay said so. I have gotten an over medium egg before and never had to pay 2 dollars and change after I had already paid for my sandwich and coffee. I truly was shocked. I paid for it but after I did it just didn't sit right with me so I won't be back. Unfortunately because again everyone here was truly so kind and the food is good. But this just left a bad taste in my mouth all together.

The staff was amazing and so attentive! The seating is very open and a great place for breakfast or to work in! The breakfast sandwich was good the bacon was just a little overcooked for my liking! Matcha was greatttt its a true matcha! I'll be coming back!

Driving from Oklahoma City to Maryland sounds absolutely insane (because it kind of is), so when we…read morefound ourselves passing through Memphis around lunchtime, I turned to my trusted Yelp experts to help us find a local gem. 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.

This is a funky little spot just outside of downtown for breakfast, brunch and lunch. We initially…read moreattempted to walk from our hotel, but it's not the easiest walk across a few big intersections so we took an inexpensive short Uber ride to have a wonderful breakfast. Love the kitschy country decor and mis-matched coffee mugs. All the servers were so friendly, and the food was really good. My only issue is that we arrived at 9am and the brunch menu was up on the board, but you can't order from the brunch menu that early...so that was confusing. I tried to get the Grown Up Chicken Tenders and they said that wouldn't start until 11am. However, they did make me a kids' chicken tenders and fries (so literally, it was the Grown Up Chicken Tenders just minus one tender). Accommodating and awesome, but definitely still confusing.
