Peabody Deli and Desserts

Memphis, TN. Just on the visuals alone I would recommend coming in here. The beautiful display is quite a show on its own merits. There was one lady working here the night I stopped by and the line was long and slow. She announced that if we were in a hurry, to "Go somewhere else!" She did OK trying to keep the line going but then, of course, someone ordered a latte that brought everything to a halt for five minutes. Eventually help arrived and we got to buy our tiramisu in a chocolate cup. We took it back to our room to eat it. As far as the tiramisu goes, it was quite lovely, it compared to others in the top notch category quite well, even though it was lacking in standout uniqueness. The chocolate cup was mostly decorative. It tasted ok but wasn't high grade chocolate. It was probably the chocolate they must use to create these designs, such as the cups.

The desserts here are decorated very nice and detailed. And of course, being The Peabody...some in the ol' duck theme. The taste of flavor of the duck (filled with mousse)....was a winner combination. The white chocolate flavor and texture, worked great with the mousse. The bourbon pecans mini pie: pretty lousy and got nothing out of it. Still give the place 5 stars...as the other desserts look great and have many options to choose from.

Heavy, dense desserts, most likely not made here, with a cup of strong average coffee -You're in the Peabody Deli. I'm here for the atmosphere and the nostalgia. My mom loved coming here for afternoon coffee and dessert and despite the prices, so do I. Good place to cool off from the hot July Memphis heat.

Delicious croissant! The coffee was complimentary, which was a pleasant surprise! Be advised that no eating is allowed in the main lobby of the Peabody so be sure to enjoy before heading to see the ducks.

Aaaaaamazing!!!Oh my sweet tooth Repeating this moment again very soon sonnet than I think

I had the pineapple matcha and the mud pie. It was a little pricey but good! The matcha could have used more matcha and a less pineapple juice. It's a nice place to sit and relax away from the busy hotel lobby.

Went a couple times, once for coffees before the ducks and again after dinner for a fun dessert. If you're visiting but couldn't stay at the Peabody for whatever reason it's a fun place to go and be a little fancy. The coffee was tasty and we were able to grab a table out in the main lobby to get a good view of the ducks after. Quack!

The service is quick and kind. I love their cheesecake and tiramisu! The coffee is always delicious as well!

First off I love this place cause you can get free coffee in the morning! FREE coffee. Because the rooms here are small and there really is no place for a coffee maker there. But you can ride the elevator down in your pjs if you don't care about anyone see you in your pjs. Coffee cuts off promptly at 9, but not to worry, just go to the lobby bar and order one of their specialty coffees with adult beverages in them.There's also a case full of beautiful desserts in individual sizes. I had a key lime pie. I was a little disappointed in the taste, but it wasn't spitting out awful and not that expensive either. My son got a duck filled with chocolate mousse. He ate it and bed and said the next morning it looked like the duck pooped in his bed cause it was messy. But good. Chocolate is always good isn't it? The desserts are drop dead beautiful. Was do have one if you get the chance. Otherwise, just drink their "free" coffee ($12 resort fee daily covers this so it isn't really free) Drink lots of coffee to earn that fee.

We walked in today at 1:45 pm looking for a lite lunch. We were completely ignored by the 2 young women behind the counter. As we struggled to locate the lunch menu, they continued to ignore us and helped another customer who had walked up to the counter after us. The young woman behind the counter complained that she needed some Alcohol for her various mosquito bites. She still didn't glance in our direction and she never acknowledged our presence. She proceeded to bend down and voraciously scratch the mosquito bites on her ankles. My husband and I looked at each other and said the idea of being served food from someone who had just been voraciously scratching her mosquito bites did not sound appetizing, to say the least! Needless to say, we will not be returning to the Peabody Hotel under any circumstances.
