We recently became empty nesters and have decided to try one new restaurant each weekend. This…read moreweekend we ended up at Bog & Barley and it did NOT disappoint. The restaurant has a really neat vibe and is decorated better than most of the restaurants in the memphis area. We came at 5:00 on a Saturday night and we were seated immediately without reservations, but when we left, they did have a small wait to get a table. We started with the pimento cheese toastie which was garlic bread with melty pimento cheese on top. We both really enjoyed it. I decided on the filet with peppercorn sauce. I asked for it it to be butterflied. My steak was cooked to perfection with the perfect amount of pink and it sliced like butter. I got the peppercorn sauce on the side and used it for a dipping sauce. I really liked the sauce, but it is really peppery. While I loved it, some might find it a little spicy. My husband had the bourbon glazed porterhouse pork chop. His was cooked perfectly fly as well and was super tender. He really enjoyed it, but mentioned that the sauce did have something in it that gave it a little spice. We shared an order of rosemary duck fat fries as the entrees come à la cart with no sides. The fries re heavy on rosemary which my husband didn't care for. I enjoyed them, but they were definitely not my favorite. Neither of us cared for the mayo sauce that they came with and preferred to eat them with ketchup. Overall it was a great experience and we will definitely be back!

The service was fantastic. Some appears to be rush or don't want to be bothered. But overall, they…read moreare very good. Fanatic decore, and ambiance. It is a good place to go to socialize. Unfortunately, the food has been consistently underwhelming during my recent visits. I first ordered the lamb chops. They were not what I would consider traditional lamb chops and were surprisingly chewy and difficult to enjoy. I returned and decided to try the Irish Curry Chicken. It was, without exaggeration, one of the worst dishes I've had there. The menu described it as chicken thigh, but it was clearly chicken breast. The dish lacked basic seasoning and flavor. There was very little salt, umami, or curry flavor. The rice was wet, overcooked, and mushy. Overall, the entire meal tasted like something taken from a grocery store freezer section and reheated. At this point, I would recommend sticking to the fries and the burgers, which remain the strongest items on the menu.

The main level holds a bar and banquette seating along the opposite wall. Restrooms are at the back. There is an upper level with table seating and a basement bar and stage that is set up when they have live music inhouse. The menu is varied and includes Irish fare such as corned beef & cabbage and bangers & mash. I went with a spinach salad, which is quite nice, lightly dressed with beets & goat cheese. I like spice, but the spicy pecans were a miss for me. The Irish eggrolls are very well prepared. Ungreasy, flavorful, good ratio of fillings to wrapper. The dressing adds to the overall flavors. My dining companion ordered the cornedbeef and cabbage which comes with whipped potato. It looked amazing with a nice portion of cabbage and cornedbeef. I am told it's very good, and if it tastes like the egg rolls, I believe it. Malt vinegar, mustard and hot sauce are on the table along with s&p if you like to add those to your meal. Staff were friendly and attentive. Full bar with beer on tap including Guinness. Football (soccer) was on the TV's. I asked about the upstairs and was offered a look around, which I did. I love the old tiled floors and other preserved, vintage parts of this old building. Good stop!

I LOVE breweries so visiting this place on Beale was a no brainer…read more Like most breweries, they have a selection to choose from. The options are displayed on a large screen above the bar. I believe the place was empty when we took a seat at the bar but another party of 2 followed shortly behind and sat a little bit further down the bar. I tried something that sounded better than it tasted but ultimately this is a matter of personal preference and I have a high maintenance palate. The people next to us got wings, which looked good until they were dangerously close to a leak that had sprung from one of the exposed pipes above. They had to move to a table behind us and then some of the staff got a bucket to place on the bar to catch the dripping water but that made a very loud noise so then they put a towel inside of the bucket. I will admit that I have never experienced such a thing before. It looked like the pipe that was dripping had tape wrapped over that area so they had tried a "bandaid" fix in the past but it didn't work. Obviously, this does negatively impact the "ambiance" portion of the overall experience and getting the impression that this is an issue that could have been fully addressed previously but the decision was made not to. It wouldn't stop me from going back but it certainly isn't ideal.

I was worried since this place is smaller and tucked away that it would be only a hangout spot for a group of older neighborhood guys, and that's how they want to keep it (looking at you, old now-closed cigar store on Mendenhall). But everyone was nice, I had a short conversation with some guys who at least acted like they were there in some official capacity and they urged me to come back soon.

Service is solid. It's on a different level with the atmosphere and plates posted up high. Burgers and fries are excellent. It's worth a visit for the popular brews from around the country. Dogfish Head, Sierra Nevada, and the local greats. Certain items go on rotation for sometime and then leave to return later like the chicken and chips. Those are pretty good. Their giant pretzels are outstanding too! Overall a nice place to relax and have a drink at.

For our entrées, we both got the smash burgers; he had regular seasoned fries, and I went with the loaded fries. Everything came out good and we really enjoyed our food. They also had a live band playing, which made the whole place feel like the perfect date-night spot. I wanted to stay and play darts, but after the long day I had, I was DONE . We had a really good time and will definitely be back for another date night!

Also, the establishment has no set time to close. It officially closes once the last customer decides to leave. Cost: 9/10 It was the typical price range for a brewery. Taste: 8/10 The burger was tasty & the wings were not bad However, I wasn't a fan of the fries. Ambience: 10/10 It was decor is beautiful. There is plenty of room for private events (large & super small), a band, and more. I love that the restrooms were covered in creative art. Parking: 9/10 There is no specified parking lot. However, you can park outside of the establishment for free. This wasn't an issue for us because we went during their slow period. I can see it being an issue at busier moments especially with it being downtown. Con: They only serve can drinks. A drink machine would be appreciated.

The…read morewaitress insisted she had told them no pickles and had it written down so it wasn't an issue with her not being able to hear me when I ordered- it was LOUD in the outside patio, which was not my choice because of the flies, but they were renovating inside at the time. I didn't want them to make it a third time because it took so long to remake it originally that everyone else had already eaten and my wife had shared hers. When I did eat it, the burger was dry. I asked for medium but you couldn't see any red to it like you should for medium. Pretzel bread didn't have a taste to it and I expected it to taste different. I've had better burgers at fast food places. I was able to eat the tater tots while waiting for the burger. They were not good. They were either overly salted or oil they were being fried in needed to be replaced. They were crunchy all throughout instead of just the outer crust. Maybe the oil was the wrong temp or they were just overcooked.
