What a cute, little, intimate breakfast place! The decor, food, and staff are amazing!! This was my 2nd time stopping by and the smoked gouda cheese grits are 🔥!

This is my new favorite spot in Memphis! It is tucked away but conveniently located by the Farmer Market, shops, and Tom Lee Park. Their food is amazing and service is top notch. They even have some outdoor seating options. Would recommend this place to anyone looking for a place to hangout, relax, or work a bit.

I stopped by The Brewery on the evening of June 10, 2025. I mistakingly opened the kitchen door which is on the side as well thinking it was the entry door for customers. I was saw bugs all over the food, and very, very unsanitary conditions. The owner yelled at me nastily angry at the fact that she knew I saw the condition of her kitchen. I tried to explain that I saw the sign and a door on the side, not knowing it was her kitchen. She continued yelling and cursing me out when she should’ve been angry at herself for keeping her kitchen in piss poor, unsanitary condition with food lying amongst filth, open and out with bugs all over it! Someone needs to shut this place down. You guys are giving this business all these stars and glowing reviews not understanding that she cares so little about her customers that she’s serving bug’s leftover food to all of you. That’s GOD’s honest truth! Lady you should be ashamed!!!!

Best fruit parfait I’ve ever had—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly layered. You can taste the quality in every bite. A must-try!

Had the Club BLT and Thai salad. Both were very underwhelming. A waste of money. Service was good and facility was clean.

Saw one of the cooks handling her phone will preparing food. Not hygienic.

If you are looking for somewhere new to get breakfast, brunch or lunch then look no further than By the Brewery! Let me tell you, this little spot all the way in downtown Memphis is absolutely perfect. No other way to describe it. Find out for yourself though. I promise you will not be disappointed!

Did a quick Google search and this place popped up. Wow it was delicious, super clean, fun staff. Great lunch stop!!!! Worth the trip.

Such a cute spot and the food will keep you coming back for more. The grilled cheese should be illegal, yes! It's that good. But honestly, so is everything else on the menu.
We recommend it to all of our customers too ~ since we're down in the South Main district.
Keep on doing what you're doing! It works :)

When people say Memphis is underrated, this is exactly the kind of place they're talking about.

This stumble-upon-it neighborhood cafe makes it feel like a local secret. The space is perfect for eating alone, as a couple or a small group.

After you order, you make your own coffee or tea. It’s so good! This place delivers on both cozy atmosphere and delicious breakfast/brunch experience. Whether you're planning a quick meal to-go or want to lounge for a lazy breakfast, this is your spot! We were both satisfied.

Note: Though you make your own drinks, do not touch the to-go containers or you will get scolded. 🤷🏽‍♀️

Yummy and cute! We have eaten here a few times on our occasional visits up to Memphis and it’s a great lunch spot! Quick and healthy, the food is always fresh and delicious. The staff is always so friendly and the environment is so bright and welcoming!
