Donovan DasherOctober 3, 2014Quant little place! The latte I had was perfect, in an over-sized mug perfect for warming your hands. The Challah French Toast was delicious too. Service was slow, but friendly so it made up for it.
Service is generally slow, but it is locally owned, green fork certified, and very popular. Try the diablo or black bean wrap, stuffed French toast, or sunshine tators. Scones and coffee are great.
My favorite neighborhood stop! You can go alone or with a small group. All the food is tasty and coffee is decadent!
Bianca AJuly 21, 2017The jam is delicious! Definitely a great stop for breakfast and coffee! Be sure to get an Illy espresso!
George BlackJanuary 22, 2014Daily vegetarian specials. Patty Melt on ciabatta bread was yum with black bean veggie patty. Side salad with strawberry vinaigrette was nice but small. Wife enjoyed black bean quesadilla's.
This restaurant probably has the best service in all of Memphis. Everything is delicious, and they don't break my bank. Healthy food+great service=A+ for Cafe Eclectic.
Rodrиго РивераJune 21, 2019Good for breakfast. Large selection of dishes and drinks. Spacious and well-suited for families. Friendly service. Recommended!
The roast beef panini was perfect. Super juicy beef, the caramelized onions were a great touch! Waitstaff was nice and attentive but not annoying. Great place!
Gavin AndersonNovember 10, 2012Try the Grilled Cheese - Traditional grilled cheese, but with a delicious twist: made with provolone on ciabatta! Goes nicely with the beef & mushroom soup, for dipping.
Alejandra CaleroApril 22, 2019I love coming here for coffee when it feels nice outside to sit on the patio area. Friendly staff and the brunch is good too.
Serving great Illy coffee. Service wonderful. And the menu changes different soups with the seasons. Malts,shakes, everything. Thumbs up in my top ten to visit in Memphis- Eclectic dog, Greek lemon soup and Dragon Eye Oolong tea is simply the best. For a special valentine's day treat try the raspberry white chocolate brownie. Your taste buds will thank you :)
Call in your order of delicious traditional ciabatta bread the day before, the are very sought after!
Excellent vegetarian and vegan options! Try the black bean hummus-it's amazing!
RobertNovember 4, 2017One lady got a big fluffy waffle. Another got a strangely flat waffle. The difference was at least 0.5 inch thickness. We think that was due to how busy the cooks were during a crowded time. Flat.
Go to Cafe Ecletic. Sit @ the bar. Drink. Eat. Have the BLT&A sammich. Try Brunch on Sundays. Sit on the patio and soak in the Rhodes College neighborhood vibe. Nosh on something from the bakery.Love. Read more
The sunshine gator taters will make you wanna go in the kitchen & kiss the cook. Get it.
Have a flowering tea while eating a grilled chicken and pineapple sandwich. Fantastic place to get together and share a good time.
- Stuffed French Toast with Strawberries is the best! They have Illy coffee now, so incredibly good!
The Rachel's Breakfast Wrap is the best!! So is their Cafe Au Lait!! Great food, great service, great atmosphere!! :)
Pretty much everything on the menu is great. They have old school sodas and coke that's hecho en mexíco. So none of that corn syrup stuff.
- Paul PhillipsJanuary 31, 2015Good breakfast, but cook was late the morning I was there and there were no grits or oatmeal.

The cheeseburger is great. Made with Black Angus beef, it is very tasty and a great value.
Kate BassJuly 17, 2011Everything on the menu is amazing! Haven't tried anything I didn't love! Plus the coffee is delish!
Cafe EclecticFebruary 2, 2012Yowza Mama, Just had the burger with jalapenos, avocado and carmelized onions added. Oh you shouldn't have told me I could do that.
John SmithDecember 4, 2016They can't cook eggs, over cooked or under cooked.The eggs are very oily, even scrambled. When they're busy a creepy eyed lady keeps yelling "runner" to help get food served. It's really annoying.
Patty melts and the Star + Micey are my favorite things ever :)
- Grilled cheese, Dagwood, patty melt, blt&a, and cappuccinos are great. Have a cookie in your way out!
Wendy SanteeMarch 15, 2013Friday and sunny! What more can a girl ask for? Oh yeah a payday! Eat the Dagwood!
Blackbean wrap with the spicy mayo on the side as a dip. Salad as side. Espresso makes the world go round.

Deborah BJanuary 1, 2016The BLT & A was pretty disappointing but the patty melt, shakes, cookies were good.
Yummy! It's like a piece of artwork so pretty you don't want to drink it!
Good food. Slow kitchen. Worth waiting for but don't be in a hurry.
Fake MongoFebruary 20, 2010Come for the delicious coffee and fresh pastries! Stay for the extra half-hour it takes your server to notice you!
Undividedattn -- TashaDecember 1, 2011The decor in the women's bthrm is so perfect! Good job to the owner!
Try the creme brulatte. Vanilla and caramel goodness.
