There's never going to be another restaurant as good as Edge Alley! Thanks for the chance to come experience the sights, sounds, and tastes over the years! It has been amazing!

We had brunch and arrived a bit early for our reservation. They accommodated us immediately, super nice. Bloody Mary was spot on! We had the pimento appetizer and it was lovely. Curry chicken salad for me and the burger for hubs. Both were delicious and hearty without feeling stuffed!

The food was moderate, nothing to brag about; we were still a little hungry when we left, and the biscuit was hard. I was a little disappointed. I wanted to order the how now brown cow but was told they only had whole milk and oat milk. I asked if I could get oat milk instead and was told no, they don't substitute for the how now brown cow, which is odd because each drink is made to order. I ended up ordering a regular coffee that had coffee grains in it. My husband's eggs were very salty, and he was disappointed In the overall experience.
I had a disappointing experience at this establishment. The General Manager, who is also a part owner, was quite awkward and lacked a personable approach, leading to an unpleasant overall experience. She enforced strict rules on the use of computers and seemed to monitor customers closely. This tactic subtly encourages customer turnover and boosts restaurant revenue by restricting the use of computers. On the positive side, the food was good. However, it was frustrating that the GM wasn't accommodating to allergies and even used subtle hints through the staff to communicate their unwillingness to make exceptions for dietary restrictions. Despite the good food, the lack of accommodation for allergies and the uncomfortable atmosphere created by the General Manager's behavior overshadowed the dining experience.

Hands down the best brunch spot in Memphis. I stand by this. Everytime I go, even during long periods between my visits, I always get the best experience and the food is oh so good. 12/10 cannot recommend enough.

Went for Father's Day brunch! Great atmosphere, excellent server, thank you , Liam! And the food and drinks were absolutely fabulous. Appetizing to look at a delicious! Highly recommend!
Truly a hidden gem, not far from The Sun Studio (which is also a place to visit beside Graceland). The food is fresh, well prepared and delicious. The service is consistent. The space works for small or large party. While living in Memphis, we went there many times and even after we moved, Edge Alley was on our must go to place. Thank you Lina and team for wonderful experiences and cherished memories! Keep up the good work!

Funky industrial type cafe up towards mid-town within easy walk of Sun Studios, so check it out on the way as we did. Stared with their signature Minosa which was Grapefruit and taste, which was very refreshing. Coffee was good although would have enjoyed it with Almond milk as wasn't fussy over the Oat Milk as slightly to creamy. Cinnamon toast (muffin for us Aussies) was delish and the waiter freaked when I poured the sauce over it. He said in all of his time working there he hadn't seen anyone else do this, we'll always a first.
Great fried chicken and shrimp and grits at Edge Alley for Sunday brunch. Service was a little slow but food was great. Also, did not like it that 18% gratuity was already included for a table of 2. We would normally tip 20% so I guess the server lost out.

Food was delicious. We were there for brunch and I had the wonderful French toast. My husband had a breakfast sandwich which he enjoyed. We also shared the overnight oats. The Good Stuff is a great coffee drink with bourbon. Waitress was very friendly and efficient. Room was full but we could still talk in a normal tone. We were visiting Memphis for the first time. The restaurant is within walking distance of Sun Studios which is a plus.
Fantastic experience. The hush puppies alone could be the only reason to go, but our meal was sensational. The nouveau unrestored/restored environment was a delightful setting. Will definitely go back.

This was my first visit for brunch. The shrimp and grits were great, but the other menu items were just ok. The other people in my party tried other dishes. I wish there were more classic items also. The server was great and was knowledgeable about the food. Although it was decent, l will not return. I am glad I tried something new.

Very nice interior, ample parking and amazing drinks. Our server was phenomenal, and everyone we interacted with was friendly and professional. Food was a little greasy/salty for my liking but I'm also just picky, everyone else at my table loved their dish.

Service wasn't great. I would have liked to try another cocktail but couldn't get out server to revisit the table. We had to get up and go get her. Of course gratuity was included so what did she care?

We had a delightful late lunch at Edge. Neighborhood clearly working to a more upscale hip level. Decor of Edge is modern industrial. Loved the unrestored ceilings. We enjoyed the pot roast open face sandwich. Great combo of melt in your mouth beef with properly cooked red pepper and onion, covered with cheese on well toasted baguette. Comes with nicely dressed bed of greens and generous side of fries that are presented whimsically. Nice friendly service. Tip built into the check.
