Welcome to the neighborhood! As a resident downtowner, this place could easily become a favorite.
We went on an early weeknight. The renovation from Double J's is incredible. Great, clean, smoke-free. There is an expansive bar, tvs on the wall and in each booth (individually controlled!). I had the jambayla with crawfish etoufee. Spicy with ample crawfish. Excellent. Wife had grilled Chicken w/ polenta. Tender, cut with fork. Our son had Claybrook farm filet. The best local beef around. Plenty of beer in tap along with other spirits and wine.
Staff was great. Fantastic addition to the South Main District. Looking forward to next visit on weekend with live music.
There is an upstairs with outdoor balcony and patio.
May try to convince owners to build a Saturday & Sunday morning soccer on tv brunch crowd. ��

We were visitors to Memphis. When I walked in I expected nothing more than bar food. I ended up with a fantastic meal of grilled redfish, lump crab meat, asparagus and risotto. Our cocktails were just as memorable - "The Front Porch" (drink) started from a homemade simple syrup with thyme infused local honey. Incredible. Our server never neglected us and the chef came out and spoke with us. It was a memorable night and we will definitely go back.
The Smash Burger rocked my world.. I sell the very best food for a living and come from a family of VERY PICKY eaters! This burger is amazing. Yes, it has the grease of a fried burger, yet the top and bottom of it is fried crispy. The middle was a perfect medium temp. This burger deserves an award!
Went to the vault yesterday to watch football. The food was excellent and reasonably priced. The bartender, Dallas, was wonderful and was on top of everything. Definitely would recommend to watch games, eat lunch or dinner, or to just hang out.
Our favorite place downtown. As a local downtowner, this is the best little gem down here. Matt, the bartender, is FANTASTIC! He is the best down here! Food, music, Matt, and other local DT residents make this place so awesome.
Great addition to the neighborhood. This is our new spot for games and beer on the weekend. Only thing I'd suggest is to up their on tap beer game and it would easily be my favorite bar in Memphis. The frost rail for drinks is pretty awesome.
We had a great evening at The Vault. Great atmosphere, great food, fantastic service. Had an awesome chat with the owner/chef about the history of the building. Right around the corner from the civil rights museum. You should definitely check this place out!
Ambitious food menu and very original drink menu. The maple syrup old fashioned is one of the best I've ever had! And the crab claws! 🦀🔥
I've been eating downtown for 10+ years. I am always skeptical of bars/clubs serving food especially at lunch. I can honestly tell you that we had a great experience. Food was fast and fresh while the server was friendly and efficient.
The staff was beyond excellent, the food was fabulous and the entertainment/atmosphere made the complete package memorable. Well worth the visit - ask about the history of the building while you're there!

I just played music there tonight and the service, the food and the staff was phenomenal ... thank you!
Great new addition downtown, JK! Wishing you guys all the best. Matt did a great job behind the bar. Food was great! Thanks for letting us come play. We will be back.
Char-grilled Oysters .... Thank god your the only ones in the city doing it Right! Loved the Vault sandwich.. excellent and our waitress .. Gorgeous and attentive. We will be back
Amazing Food and great service. Our meals were hands down some of the best we have ever had.
Had the sweet heat chicken sammie by suggestion, it was incredible and exactly what you want from a spicy chicken sammie. Also had the BBQ loaded fries, 🔥. My cousin had the gumbo which I tried and was fantastic as well, I will definitely be back because the menu sounds incredible. Fast, friendly service too
I loved this little place filled with character & characters! Can't wait to go back for more of those incredible pork tacos & elote dip. Their fries are killer good...best I've had in ages from any establishment!
Hidden gem!!!❤️
Date night at The Vault!!! Martini and draft beer…✔️!! Great Food…✔️!! Great atmosphere…✔️!! Our server/bartender Tyson was great, she makes an awesome martini. She recommended the Spinach Artichoke Dip with Crabmeat. Chef Derk Merztler out did himself with the French Dip and Vault Chopped Salad w/Shrimp. The au jus was deep and rich. The grilled shrimp was perfection. This place is just down from the Arcade and The Cheesecake Corner on G.E.Patterson. IT IS A MUST SEE!!!!!
I've never been to a bar that let's me choose what I want to watch on TV so that was super cool. The staff was pretty friendly. I had the catfish plate which was good but you can really taste the pickle brine. Also a carafe for $15?! Brunch me please.
Was pleasantly suprised eating here. The Vault has a comfortable sports bar atmosphere with TV's and remotes at the tables. The food was creative and tasty, loved that the brunch options automatically come with fresh fruit instead of something heavy and green. Will have to visit again to try the dinner options!
The food was amazing and well priced, the people were nice, and the atmosphere was chill with blues playing while some quiet people drank at the bar. We went for lunch and it was pretty empty. Would love to come more often.
The food was pleasant enough and the staff is very friendly. I docked a star because this establishment needs a little TLC. The buffalo cauliflower and crawfish mac’n’cheese did not disappoint.
The food was very delicious and Larry the cook did a wonderful job.

Went for brunch a couple Sundays ago. It was absolutely amazing!!! The service was great, the food was fresh and delicious!! It was awesome! Can't wait to go again!
Excellent food for excellent prices. Everything we had hit.
Also had a great bartender. She had great recommendations, was very nice and personable.
Finally if you're a sports fan, they have TVs with games everywhere.
It really checked all the boxes for me. Will return for sure.

First time here since the restaurant was bought out. Same nice vibe. Love the personal tv in each booth. Service was nice!
Not too bad. Great service, no complaints. I tried a new dip just to be trying something new. Lots of corn.
We walked right in and seated ourselves around 545 pm. We started with the pork rinds, which arrived to the table so freshly made that they were still popping ... Delicious!
For dinner, the two of us were quite satisfied after one perfectly done smash cheeseburger from the kids menu - plenty for an adult preferring smaller portions - and a generously-portioned club sandwich, with servings of crispy fries accompanying each. Note that the fries were described as shoestring, but actually more like regular fast-food size fries.
Our server was really friendly, and super great about quick refills when our tea glasses were low.
Very well-priced & a terrific (slightly early) dinner on a summer Saturday night. We will be back!
Went for the first time this Tuesday and fell in love!! Amazing food and cocktails 🤤
