The 21 Best Restaurants in Memphis, Tennessee | Eater Nashville

"Upscale Irish pub Bog & Barley is a relative newcomer to the city’s dining scene, opening its doors in 2023 in East Memphis’s Regalia Shopping Center. Even at this early stage, though, it’s clear the bar is a labor of love for husband-and-wife team DJ and Jamie Naylor. DJ, an Irish native, insisted on sourcing much of the decorations for the cavernous, 7,000-square-foot space from the Emerald Isle — the bar is made of almost 450 separate pieces of wood shipped from Ireland, while the space was designed by Dublin firm O’Donnell O’Neill. The lunch and dinner menus include traditional Irish dishes like bangers and mash, shepherd’s pie, and beer-battered fish and chips, while the extensive whiskey list wanders beyond Ireland to include North America, Scotland, and Japan. End your meal with a helping of warm Irish bread pudding or Irish tea creme brulee." - Jackie Gutierrez-Jones

I was mostly trying to see some high school classmates -- one that I had not seen in over 15 years -- when I visited this really nice restaurant. My friend that lives in the Memphis area suggested this place and it did not leave us disappointed. It was just all around great -- the atmosphere, the food, and the drinks. It was so much fun seeing by childhood buddies over some really delicious food. The cream of cauliflower soup was very good as was the chicken sandwich and fries I chose to complete the meal. I also tried the roasted brussels sprouts and loved them. The service was fantastic. Our server turned out to be from a town near my home town in Arkansas and we talked about how the towns have changed. It just turned out to be a delightfully great lunch!

Bog & Barley is one of the most unique spots in Memphis. The atmosphere alone makes it worth a visit the design feels authentic and inviting, like stepping into a modern Irish pub. The staff were friendly and attentive, and you can tell they want you to feel at home. The food was a highlight: the fish and chips were perfectly crispy with fresh cod, and the bread pudding with whiskey sauce was one of the best desserts I’ve had in the city. They also have an impressive whiskey and cocktail selection that pairs well with the menu. It is on the pricier side, especially for drinks, and it can get pretty loud when the bar is full, so it may not be the best choice for a quiet dinner. But if you’re looking for great food, a lively atmosphere, and something a little different in Memphis, Bog & Barley definitely delivers.

Always great with a good beer and whiskey selection. I love that they have Guiness and Smithwick on draft. Make sure to try the duck fat fries as well. Also you can't go wrong fish and chips. The Scottish salmon is also excellent. But make sure to save room for dessert and the bread pudding.

My husband and I came here for lunch. It was our first time in this restaurant. Another friend had made a post about it, and it peaked my interest for a couple of reasons. I love a good Irish pub it looked beautiful from the pictures I saw. When we walked into the restaurant, it did not disappoint! The bar area itself is really eye catching....gorgeous woodwork, nice back lighting, and tall ceilings. A huge variety of all kinds of whiskeys. As we were led to our table, my eyes were inundated with all the cool decor in this place! I loved it and thought it was all so pretty! There is much to take in! We were seated at a table sort of in the back, in front of tall bookcases filled with all sorts of interesting items! Our server greeted us promptly and took our drink order. A glass of wine for me and a drink called The 442 for my husband. They have a good menu and I decided to go with a chicken curry dish with jasmine rice and a wedge salad. I love a good wedge salad, and this one did not disappoint! So good! My husband ordered the Fish and chips and said it was very good. He is kind of picky about tartar sauce, and said this one was very good. Our server, Diego, was attentive and helpful. I asked him about the upstairs area and what was behind some velvet curtains I saw. He said we could go upstairs and look around, if we liked, so at the end of our meal, we did. Another beautiful space! Behind the curtains is a private dining area, which we also had a look at since no one was in there. Very nice. We enjoyed our experience at the Bog & Barley and think you will too! Go in and give them a try! Sit at that beautiful bar and have a drink. It's a cool place.

Amazing place! Loved the atmosphere. There was live music and even though it was a busy Saturday night, we were sat immediately. Lots of space. The food was great! We had the roasted chicken, 8oz filet, mashed potatoes, and duck fat chips and loved all of it! The auld bog draft was also good as well as the Guinness chocolate cake. Our server, Gavin, was so delightful and gave us a great experience. He even fixed our table because it was a bit wobbly. Will definitely be coming back!

The sheppards pie was good as were the oysters and brussel sprouts (pictured). We also ordered a bread plate that was recommended and honestly that was pretty mediocre. Beautiful atmosphere for work or birthday party!

Great food great place. Hands down the beef tartare was my favorite app. The lemon cake was my favorite dessert. They cooked my filet perfectly. Wonderful experience. I highly recommend.

Great service and delicious food. A very unique experience. I love the decor. The pimento cheese bread appetizer was divine. I got the Shepherds Pie, and it was amazing. My bf said the Rainbow Trait was fantastic, as well. Will be back.

This place is amazing. The staff, service, ambiance, food. It's fantastic from top to bottom. I got the shepherds pie. It was very tasty. Last time, I got the porterhouse pork chop, which was divine. If ya want fancy and delicious , the pork chop wins. If ya want traditional Irish pub fare, the shepherds pie will serve you well. Great bar with a nice selection of wine and beer. The desserts. Oh my. So, we have tried them all here. (Literally). I give the top spot to the bread pudding followed by the Guinness chocolate cake. But they are all great. My least favorite is the lemon cake. It's good. Just not as good as everything else. It's an amazing experience here.

Solid pup fare--love the shepherds pie--and a great Uk and Ireland beer selection on tap, and at fair prices. The suburban location is a bit unexpected but that's means plenty of parking. The classic pup interior is worth a look, or two. The best back bar around? Efficient, friendly servers too. No waiting on that first pint of Harp's. Yes sir !

I dropped by here for a late lunch. My delicious meal consisted of Scotch Eggs, Roasted Beet Salad, Irish Chicken Curry, and Guinness 0 (zero). I was seated almost immediately, and given an iced water to drink. My nonalcoholic beer from the bar arrived about ten minutes later. The delay was why I declined two separate offers for a refill. There were no patrons sitting at the bar. I'm unsure if they even had a bartender on duty. The first course of my meal arrived about fifteen minutes after I was seated. The pacing was spot on for my other two courses. I was checked on by my waiter at acceptably intermittent intervals. (I'm also thinking that my waiter had other duties, such as checking-in patrons at the front entrance, perhaps.) It's nice that this place still offers nonalcoholic beer. They even applied a decorative feature onto the foam of my Guinness. It was a nice touch. Four stars. I especially recommend the new menu item: Roasted Beet Salad. I plan on returning here again.

I went here for my friends birthday because he was raving over how good this place was. I really want to rate them a 3.5 but the service and staff were so nice, I will go with a four. The oysters were the perfect size. The bread that comes out with it, hands down the worse shit I ever tasted. Just ask for some crackers with it. Nonetheless the oysters were good. My friend had been bragging about the steak being one of the best steaks he has had in Memphis. Blah Blah Blah. Yall the steak was cooked perfect. We both ordered our steaks medium. They got it right, EXCEPT they didn't add anything seasoning. Like none at all. The steak had literally no flavor. Not even a pinch of salt. I was like this is not it. Even my friend was like I'm so sorry because it usually hits. He said this was his third time ordering steak but this was the first time it had no flavor. So needless to say my first experience was blah. I'm willing to give them another chance because Cassie the General Manager was soooo sweet. She came over and greeted us at the bar and actually held a very nice conversation. Our bartender was amazing as well. The staff is what's saving this review because my first food experience did not pass the vibe check. The restaurant is beautiful inside and the size of it was unexpected. It has upstairs seating as well. Very cute.

Went to Bog & Barley for the first time this week. I had heard great things about it. My friend and I were immediately impressed by the beautiful decor and excellent service. But I hate to say that I was disappointed with my meal. I had the Shepherds Pie. Maybe I don't know authentic Irish Shepherds Pie but this dish was 1/3 meat and at least 2/3 mashed potatoes. The menu said it contained root vegetables and peas. I search for the veggies. I never saw a pea and finally found a couple of small (1/4 inch) pieces of some veggie. I will say that my friend's Roasted Scottish Salmon with barley risotto was excellent. One hit and one miss. Because of the environment, I'll probably give it another try with different dishes.

Overall my meal was enjoyable if not a little bit not worth the price of admission. I had the trout with roe and "crispy" potatoes that were not crispy. The fish was good but there was probably 10 individual roe eggs. The asparagus was probably the best part of the meal. I got their 901 sour and sadly it was probably the worst whiskey sour I have ever had- it didnt taste like whiskey or lemon so not really sure why it was so bad. The bread appetizer was good but I would hope for more portion for a bread app that you have to pay for. The creme brulee was very acceptable and I tried some of their other desserts that my friends had and they were very good as well.

Bog & Barley is the spot to hang out when in Germantown. With plenty of seating, large parties can come in for dinner and catch up with friends and family over a drink and watch the game. The menu is extensive, offering appetizers, salads, seafood and British fare. Isaac, our server, and other waitstaffs are extremely friendly and helpful. Excellent service. The desserts read really delicious with the Irish coffee and cream ingredient, but tasted quite mediocre. I'd skip on dessert next time, but definitely will come back to try other entrees whenever in Germantown.

I'd put six stars if I could!! The ambience is very nice, they have an amazing bar featured prominently that is a work of art in my worthless opinion. I also very much liked all the bookshelves with, well, books but also bric-a-brac. We had a reservation for 5pm on a Friday night which we probably didn't need but we weren't sure what to expect. I will tell you this place was fancier than I expected. It wasn't snobby or hoity toity or anything, I was just expecting an Irish pub type place but this more than that. I had salmon with risotto. The salmon was good but the risotto was exceptional!! One companion had the pork porterhouse which was very good and we shared a side dish of the Brussels sprouts which were also very very good!! They came with a yogurt based sauce with thyme and coriander I think and also currants. Really good!! One other young man companion had the cheeseburger and fries. He said they were very good. For dessert we got an Irish crème cheesecake, a Guinness chocolate cake, and a lemon cake. All three were very good. The lemon cake was very light and soft it was almost like a custard.

Went for drinks, good and cocktails with friends over the holidays. We had a wonderful time catching up and enjoying adult beverages. It was so great to see friends and family. The restaurant was decorated with Christmas decor. I love the vibe of this place. It is so pretty on the inside with natural wood and lighting. We sat upstairs in a nook which fit our party perfectly. You could see the downstairs and enjoy people watching or sports on the tv near us. Our waiter/server was Caleb I believe. He was so nice and provided excellent service for our large party of 15. I asked for appetizer recommendations and I ordered the asparagus. That dish was simply delicious. It was a bed of asparagus that was buttered. The sauce was made of sour cream and possibly mayonnaise with chives and other great seasonings. It was very very decadent but very good. I really enjoyed it because my plate was a happy and clean. I also ordered the Irish Soda bread that is not on the menu. Always very soft on the inside and crusty on the outside. I can't wait to return to try the Irish Creme Baileys Cheesecake.

Another fabulous visit here. Their fish and chips are really good. I highly recommend them. It doesn't miss. We also had a special, the seafood Parmesan risotto. It was really delicious as well. Go get some....

The bar is absolutely beautiful. Had the lamb meatloaf on the server's recommendation the first day and it was great. Went with a party of 7, and all high-fives on the menu items ordered, (pork porterhouse and Shepherds pie were next to me and looked delicious!) Drinks were cold, and service was excellent. Went back the next night since the first experience was so good. Would definitely recommend this place, and will likely return again before leaving Memphis.

Went for lunch on the suggestion of a friend. Despite the outward appearance the ambiance inside was excellent. Service was second to none and the food was great. I had the Rueben and duck fries. Can't wait to come back and try dinner. Give it a try. You'll be glad you did.

Had a great experience there on a date night in March. We each had the fish and Chips (made with Cod - the king of fish) $22-25. Love places that have Guinness ($7) on tap. Shared a creme brûlée ($8). Service was pretty good and the atmosphere was good - loud, crowded (though I don't always like such).

I came here for brunch, and it did not disappoint. We ordered the Reuben and shrimp and grits--both were excellent, 10/10. The service was fast and accommodating, and the vibes were unbelievable. Piano bar over everything! The drinks were also great; I tried The Dominican. While it mentioned strawberries and blueberries, I couldn't see how they were incorporated--perhaps they ran out of garnishes? Regardless, it was still delicious. Highly recommend!

It's GORGEOUS in there. Nice work on the ambiance! The customer service was great and the bartenders were awesome. Loved how knowledgeable everyone was about the menu and even had recommendations for non-whiskey drinkers. But this place, you go to for whiskey for sure. Next time, I'm going to try a flight (or 2) Giving it 4 stars for now because the meal I had wasn't that great but I'll give it another shot and update my review later.

My family and I went for a late lunch. We were seated promptly and our server brought over some water while we looked at the menu. The ambiance was very pleasant. We shared the pimento cheese toasty and the fish dip- both were delicious. For my entree, I had the jumbo lump crab cake and it was really good. The other entrees looked good too. For dessert, we shared the Guinness chocolate cake and the crème brûlée and both were delicious!

Food-5 stars Ambience- 5 stars Service- 3.5 stars My friends and I had a reservation for 4 for dinner. When we arrived we were sat at a high top round table. This table was almost too small for each of us to have a drink and an entree. Someone ordered a whiskey flight and we had to send the board back to the kitchen because there wasn't enough room on the table for it. I don't think more than 3 people should be sat at the small bar tables. Our meals were delicious and the atmosphere has immaculate vibes. There was live music later in the evening and he played some great songs. Our waiter was extremely impatient with us from the beginning. Rushing us through our drinks, continuously taking things off of the table. When we finished our food, he took the plates away and then after a few minutes took the salt and pepper shakers off of the table. He tried to take my drink twice thinking I was finished with it (it was in a copper cup so he couldn't see through it). We asked for certain things and he would appear with something else instead. We asked for a Moscow mule and he brought a ramekin of buttermilk ranch dressing. He keyed in extra desserts we didn't ask for and we had to have our ticket changed (which isn't a big complaint, mistakes happen). When we tried to go to the restroom our waiter (male) was in the women's restroom cleaning it. Tried to go upstairs and the restroom was locked/out of service. Went back down stairs to the restroom being mopped and cleaned. Went double checked the times for the restaurant and the bar didn't close until 11:30 pm, we left around 10:45. The rushing seemed unnecessary and made us feel like we needed to get up and leave before we were ready.

Heck, yes. It is huge and gorgeous and there's so many interesting things to look at. This is an event space and experience, almost like a trip to some sort of mansion cabin in the 1920s. There is all kinds of seating, including huge booths, private seating upstairs seating, and a gorgeous stunning bar. We sat upstairs and were able to look down upon the bustling restaurant. The service was very attentive and excellent. The place was packed and it was the middle of the work week and lunchtime. The food was good enough. I paid $70 for two appetizers, a main entrée, a dessert, coffee ,and tip. A great place to meet somebody for business or a cool date or to bring somebody from out of town. I got the cabbage steak and I wouldn't get that again. I would definitely try a different dish. The Guinness chocolate dessert was delicious.

Yelp
Still an undefeated 5/5 in my book. The Auld Bog has to be the best Memphis grown brew around and it can only be found here and at the sister establishment. Their crispy brussels sprouts are so very good and have a unique combination of flavor that I really enjoy. Love the mild sweetness from the coriander yogurt against the contrast of the roasted brussels sprouts. Feeling Bangers and mash? Also an excellent choice. The B&B burger is probably one of the best in town and their corned beef Reuben is top tier. The Reuben is paired with fresh pulled beef, not stale or dry. Don't even get me started on their outstanding fries. Put a dash of malt vinegar and you're in business. Thinking about dessert? Don't sleep on the Irish Cream Cheesecake. It's light and absolutely full of flavor. Hands down a good atmosphere and amazing service as always!

Bog & Barley is the top notch, all around, undisputed king /queen (depending on your preference), of all Irish Places in and around Memphis, TN. The beautiful interior design blends perfectly with the menus. The ridiculously deep whiskey lists, the signature flights, signature cocktails, and the food menus are full of delights. My favorite whiskey is Elmer T. Lee. If you see it on the list, get it. On top of that, they have like 20 beers on tap and a good selection of wines to choose. There is even non-alcoholic beer for people that don't drink, but still want beer. That's just fucking strange by the way. They do pour a proper Guinness draft and even have the thing that will print your picture on the head. Tehehe. Your head on the head... I have had majority of the food on the menu, or it has at least hit my table. I love the Scottish Egg and the Pim Toasties for apps. Mussels are killer. The duck fat fries are a must get no matter what. The Fish and Chips is exactly the way it should be. In fact, all of the "Irish Fare" is perfect. I do think there are too many potatoes in the Sheppards pie lately, but that's just me. The trout they had last year with the lemon sauce, holy shit. I could go on and on. This place is well done!!! '24 - 31/100

This was my second time here. First time I had the fish and chips & second time I had the fish sandwich with the grilled broccoli. Food came out hot and in a timely manner. Service was good. The fish could have used a little salt both times but it was fried to perfection & cooked throughly. I love sauce and their house made tartar sauce was good...def made up for the lack of salt. The fish sandwich gave fish filet from McDonald's but waaaaayyyy fancier. It was so good!!! But the BROCCOLI!! That was the best broccoli I've here had. It wasn't too soft or hard and it was perfectly charred & seasoned. In all I'll def be back.

Who knew I loved Irish food??!! But seriously as soon as you walk in the door you're transported to another world. The decor is top tier. The attention to detail is incredible. As far as service you can't ask for more. Each visit we had servers that made us feel we were their only table. Now you're in a beautiful setting with top notch service and I haven't evens started on the food. So far everything we've had has been great. Two in our group had the bangers and mash absolutely loved it. First time for both. Fish and chips, great. Salmon, great. Lamb meatballs....Amazing!! Try something different here. Step out your comfort zone. Reservations highly suggested. On a Saturday night it was standing room only. It's fancy but casual. They have a bar and TV but is also intimate. Great for a date night. A must try!

You are not prepared for the interior of this restaurant - I read the description online and was skeptical, but it literally feels like you are stepping into a pub in Ireland. I'm so mad that we have lived in Memphis for two years and that we are just now trying Bog & Barley - the decor is insanely well done and the staff was super friendly and attentive. Cocktails were great, I can't wait to come back again!

The most amazing spot for a lunch date! It has a distinctive vibe! A formal regal atmosphere with a laid back feel. The portions were perfect the Shrimp & Grits and Shepherd's Pie were amazing! Well seasoned shrimp and with the sausage was another dimension to the dish and a more filling experience! The Shepherds Pie was also well seasoned, meaty and had a crust which completely complemented the meal! Prices are reasonable-they have a full bar and a few areas which could accommodate small dining groups. Upstairs-when open-is an experience in itself-so much to look at and so comfortable. The noise levels were low as tables were spaced well and not overcrowded. Parking is available, but as there are 3 other restaurants and numerous stores so do not be surprised if you can not find close parking. It is a huge parking area with handicapped spots, but they were all taken. (Considering the size of the lot itself the city planner/designer might re-visit if there are a representative amount of handicapped parking spaces.) Overall a wonderful experience staff were polite well informed and seemed happy & really enjoyed working/serving their clientele.

Phenomenal, would recommend highly! The service was great, seated quickly and attentive wait staff. The whisky list is extensive, lots to choose from. The food was the best part (although the whisky was really good). The smoked fish spread lacked a little smoke flavor, but it was very flavorful otherwise and the fresh chips were great for dipping, easily big enough for 2-3 people. The chicken curry was others worldly. One of the best curries I've had, and the chicken melted in your mouth. Just get it, you won't regret it.

Service - needed a reservation on a weekday, sat upstairs at large table- perfect. Service started immediately as we sat, cocktails came out in minutes and apps followed in less than 10. Steaks were cooked perfectly and every dish was outstanding. I'm leaving this review for the staff that allowed us to talk until everyone had left. We were literally the last to go (had not noticed). Never rushed never approached and told they were closing. The smiles and service that started our dinner remained until we started to leave. Truly exceptional all the way around. Would highly recommend.

Inside was amazing. You walk into a wall that, as a bourbon and whiskey drinker, is what I would love to have in my home. Cool drinks mixed with old classics. The food was pretty mediocre nothing special but the service was great. We even did the beers with our faces printed on them which was pretty neat. If you want a drink and chill night a recommend your bourbon of choice watching the game at the bar.

So let me start out by saying: upgrade your fries/chips. Just. Do. It. Bog & Barley serves up a meeeean Rosemary Duck Fat French fry!!!! Goodness. I will absolutely be daydreaming about those. Their fried fish was wonderful as well! As was both the aioli AND their tarter sauce they served alongside it. So much damn flavor and everything we had was so fresh. One gripe? The Coke was not great. Super syrup heavy & flat. That was a bummer. Another gripe? The fish & chips are very fried-food-heavy so I didn't feel great afterwards. I don't think that would stop me from ordering the same meal again, though! I also tried their grits and they were creamy and delicious! Service was hit and miss. Our actual server was very MEH. He smelled like smoke. Wasn't super friendly. But he was moderately attentive and I appreciated that. Nearly EVERY staff member we walked passed greeted us or asked how our meal was! So so awesome - it made me feel so welcome. Oh my and the interior? LUSH. Absolutely stunning. The exterior blew me away as well. This place offers substance in a world overfilled with fluff. All in all our first time was a positive one and I really can't wait to come back! (And get more duck fat fries!!!!!!)

Today was my first time trying Bogs and Barley, and I must say that it was a treat. I highly recommend the vegan cabbage steak with a side of mushrooms. The restaurants decor is amazing and the service is awesome. This is an awesome place to visit for any occasion.

I really enjoyed the atmosphere and style of the restaurant. It's nice to have this type of restaurant in Memphis since there's nothing like it. Everything was delicious. The highlights were the leak soup and bangers and mash though. Staff was great and I loved how our waiter told us some interesting facts about the design of interior.

Nice vibes and they have a few real vegan items besides a "weak" salad and streamed veggies

Went to B and B's last Saturday night. Had some friends in from Birmingham so we wanted to entertain them at your restaurant. The food was great, but the music was not what I expected. I thought we'd have some pleasant Irish gig music playing, but whoever was doing the singing was really too loud and disturbing in my book. We could just about hear ourselves talk, possibly if it was turned down a little bit it wouldn't be as bad or disturbing. we will be back, but it will be times when there's no music playing by live band again. The food was great. The atmosphere was fabulous. Do you have this type of music playing every night or is this just a Saturday gig thank you. See you next visit Bob.

Let me tell you this is my absolute favorite place to order Fish and Duck Fat Chips! The fish is always so fresh and tasty. Omg the duck fat chips are to die for. I've never tasted a tastier chip ever in life. You can taste the duck fat as you chew the chips. My husband had the burger which he said was very tasty and full of flavor. The ambiance is really nice, it doesn't give an Irish Pub at all. We sat in the indoor patio area but the dining room was gorgeous. As soon as well walked in we were greeted and seated. Our server was very good and attentive as well, I wish I could remember his name. I will definitely be back sooner than later! Please add this place to your list of places to try! You will not be disappointed!

First off WOW!!! How wonderful of a job they did setting the ambiance of this place. Absolutely top notch. Felt like maybe I was in the Ashford Castle! The fish and chips as good as you will ever eat. The Guinness was fresh and wonderfully poured. The bread pudding, shut up!!! You will be tempted to lick the plate. Our server was pleasant, very informative and attentive without being too much. This is a great place to hang out. Get over there and check it out. I promise you will love it.

Excellent food and service. The wood work was brought in from Ireland for the bar area for sure. It's beautiful and made for a very nice atmosphere. Made reservations but I don't think you have to.
