The Tea Room

Dine with us!

There’s no better lunch spot in Memphis than the Woman’s Exchange Tearoom with its cozy dining room and sunny garden room. Treat yourself to genuine Southern cooking with a side of tradition and a generous helping of a worthy cause.

Recognized as a destination for “Best Lunch” by Memphis Magazine, The Tea Room at the Woman’s Exchange has delighted customers since 1962. Every day, our famous chef Rev Bailey conjures up a hot entrée, a tasty vegetable plate, a delicious soup, a hearty salad, and a specialty sandwich. We also cater to special dietary needs and allergies.

We can help you celebrate special occasions like birthdays and bridal showers, or gatherings with friends. We accept reservations for parties of six or more and are open Monday through Friday from 11:30 am to 1:45 pm.

Please call (901) 327-5681 in advance for reservations for groups of six or more.
