The flat white was so good espresso wasn’t burnt and the ginger latte was spot on. The frittata was fluffy and not dry. The Brie and fig croissant was just the right balance of flavor. Friendly space in an old building. Definitely pass up the chain coffee shop a few doors up and go here!

I felt like I had found a rare gem when I stumbled upon Cafe Keough. I had been in Memphis for a few weeks on business and I had tried several restaurants during my stay but Cafe Keough was the only one that undoubtedly deserved my 5 star review. The atmosphere was calm and quaint. The food was absolutely delicious! I’m in love with their spinach quiche. It’s flaky, buttery and packed full of flavor. Their coffee is some of the best I’ve ever had. It’s not super bitter like some others. Every sip was pure perfection! If you’re ever in Memphis do yourself a favor and pay them a visit!

Quaint place. Makes you feel like you’re in Paris or some other place in France.
Great location since it is in downtown Memphis and no cars go in front of it, only the trolleys.
Offering things like bagels & lox, ham & cheese croissants, salads, sandwiches and pastries, you will find something to your liking.
We had the ham & cheese croissant and the Belgian waffles. Both came with a small side of fruits. Portions are on the European side. Meaning you will be satisfied but not overstuffed.
Bonus: sit outside so you can people watch and enjoy a nice breeze.

Waffles were delightfully light and tasty, served with pineapple and watermelon. Frittata equally as delicious. A commonality that seems to be the norm in the south is to order and sit down which was fine. Lovely old building with huge windows and exquisite ornate details. Lovely place!
Eric Herndon
Very much a French style ambiance and the service is beautiful! The food was fresh and delicious! The coffees were expertly made and the best I've had in a long time! Definitely will return when we come back to Memphis!
Brian Schneider
Great place for an off the beaten path lunch. I had the smoked salmon salad this time and it was really good. The service was fast and friendly as well.

Cappuccino was mostly steamed milk. I’m not sure what they pull espresso from but it wasn’t freshly ground beans…some sort of pod or something. Food was good but I’d search for something like law next time.

Stopped by in the morning for coffee and was so impressed, we went back for an early dinner! I had smoked turkey sandwich with cranberry. It was on delicious bread. The side salad was great! Cranberries and candied pecans. Soooo good! The atmosphere and historic building is inviting and comfortable. An excellent stop that I will revisit anytime I'm in Memphis.

When I visit Memphis, I try to find the time to stop by Cafe Keough. Lovely old building and great coffee and food.
B Jennings
Very good coffee. Breakfast was great. I had the panini. The sausage gravy on the side is very rich but excellent.
The eclairs are perfect and the croissants were nice and flaky.
Coffee service was a little slow but employees were nice and it has a cool atmosphere.
Robert Hanna
European atmosphere on an American scale. Excellent iced latte. Quiche Lorraine was good. High ceilings and widely-spaced seating areas give an open and airy feeling and unique acoustics. Nice place to spend time in the morning for coffee and breakfast.
Anthony Burke
Popped in whilst wandering downtown. Lovely interior and decoration. Great atmosphere. Plenty of seating but very spacious. Great menu options but not too vast. Service and food was delightful
Robert Davies
The amazing woman taking my order did an awesome job of recommending some new items for lunch. Coffee was very good..on par with many upscale coffee houses in NYC.
Aryn Calhoun
This is my FAVORITE place to hang for breakfast (and lunch too) in downtown Memphis. The coffee is amazing, the atmosphere is unique. Not touristy or overcrowded. Highly recommend.
Walid Nabhane
Very nice coffee shop for it's location and open space and European decor. The coffee is good. The viennoiseries not that great but ok. Free WiFi and calm atmosphere so it is cool to go for hanging out and do some work.
Jessica Myers
Atmosphere is awesome, service was good, menu looked great! My sandwich was good and I really liked the bread they use. My latte was tasty too. My only complaint if I had one was my side of French onion soup which was good by the way, would have been better if served the traditional way with melted provolone on top. Otherwise the place is cool. Well visit again.

I have been going here a LOT for lunch and I don't think I can stop. The food is delicious and the prices are very reasonable for the quality of the food they serve. It's always consistent and the service is fast and professional. The environment is relaxed and sophisticated and I like that the staff is focused and efficient. In response to a previous post stating that the staff isn't friendly, I'd like to note that this isn't a diner, so don't expect to have Alice coming out and asking you how you like your grits.
Gina Ferguson
I love the Parisian vibe of the place. The salad nicoise with the citrus vinaigrette and sushi-grade tuna is always on point. Macaroons and rich, creamy cappuccino to finish it off....perfect.
The are only a couple things that I would work on if it were my place...
The ventilation system seems never to quite clear the air, and it feels kind of empty, with tiny, rather useless ice-cream parlor tables and chairs trying to fill a huge space. Perhaps if there were several comfortable sofas and chairs at the windows, where there is a bit of a platform. More substantial tables and chairs would make it more inviting. I've watched as people have walked in the door, looked around, and walked out. It's such a shame, because had they stayed, they would have had a delightful dining experience!!!

Went in early for breakfast and had a Great experience. Everything is made fresh in house
All was good, but make sure you don't pass up the in house smoked bacon.
Richard Schutz
I walked by and immediately noticed the ambiance inside and loved it! Had an iced vanilla latte and it was probably one of the best ones I've had in quite a while!! Really nice service from the staff. :)
Stephen Palmer
We loved this place great for a coffee and lunch didn't try breakfast but I'm sure it would be great the staff were so friendly always smiling
Brian Lynn
Good, quirky place, highly recommended for anything from breakfast on the patio to a drink at the bar at the end of the day.
Alastair Galbraith
Fantastic food, great staff and excellent music
Paige Weber
Wonderful food! I came back for breakfast before I had to catch my flight because I loved the atmosphere and the food. The reason I didn't give it 5 stars was the service. The woman who waited on me (both days) was abrupt and rude.
Rhonda Brown Craft
We loved this place, went to Memphis on vacation ate here 3 times.
Cathy Franks
Today was my first visit. I’ll be back. Everything I had was great. Especially liked the fig and Brie croissant and the hash. Lovely people took great care to make our group feel special.
Nicole Elizabeth Pendas
Prompt service, friendly staff and the food was delicious and reasonably priced. Will be returning, without a doubt. I had a prefect cappuccino and the Brie and fig croissant with bacon and sliced apples! Hellloooo satisfaction!
Elvis Ghaw
Went there in August during 2017 Elvis week for the first time. Good service, and the place is nice and comfortable. Can't go always since I don't live nearby.
Jonathan Loescher
Great cafe in Downtown Memphis. Was awesome for breakfast.
Brett Hyman
Good coffee, delicious food, and prompt service in a great atmosphere. What more can you ask for?
Ricka B McDonald
This is a wonderful place -loads of atmosphere- great food, & excellent service!!! The staff bends over backwards to please the customers! We held our rehearsal dinner there and were there for lunch another time & have absolutely no complaints. Can't wait to return.
Todd Boyce
An exceptionally good spot by any measure. Coffee was great, food was outstanding and the service excellent.
