A Memphis Must: Fantastic Brunch Feast At The Peabody Hotel

A Memphis Must: Fantastic Brunch Feast At The Peabody Hotel

"I thought I knew about brunch...until I did the Peabody brunch."

This is a quote from a friend after she and I experienced the absolutely ridiculous brunch buffet at The Peabody Hotel.

Imagine every kind of breakfast, brunch, and lunch food ever - meats, cheese, waffles, seafood, fresh-baked breads, pasta, carving station, salads - all spread out on multiple buffets. And don't get me started on the desserts. They're as delicious as they are beautiful. And there's a whole section for them.

Brunch at The Peabody is everything you've ever thought about brunch, taken to the next level. They use the word "lavish" and I really can't argue.

Usually, the brunch is set up in Capriccio Grill. You'll be seated, order your beverages (unlimited French Press coffee and mimosas are included in the price), and then make your way to the breakfast section within the restaurant, and then the humongous table set up in the hallway outside to all the other, salads, pastas, seafood, meats, vegetables. The desserts (you must save room!) are a menagerie of delicious, delicate pastries. It's like the Nutcracker's land of sweets come to life. 

For Easter and other holidays, the Peabody sets up the brunch on Mezzanine overlooking the Lobby. They also add holiday favorites and extra desserts and pastries in addition to the usual smorgasbord.

I'd love to win the brunch because my husband and I just celebrated our 20 year wedding anniversary, and instead of doing something special on that date, we were traveling to visit with family, leaving on the actual anniversary date and then coming back a few days later just to head back to work. In fact, that weekend while we were out of town, we were so committed to family obligations that we were unable to experience a brunch on that last day (Sunday) like I had wanted to. It would be so awesome to experience the best brunch in the city with the love of my life of 20 years - I've never been before and it would be just perfect. Thank you!

I've always wanted to go to the Peabody Easter brunch to see if they'll let me get away with wearing a sleeveless Megadeth shirt.

I would like to go to the Easter brunch because... after attending two, three, sometimes four church services every Sunday, it would be nice to take a breath and just enjoy some good food with good company... after at least one service, that is. :-)

I'd love to go to this brunch because my husband is going on a trip for work, and will be gone for a whole month the Monday after Easter. This will be a great way for us to spend some quality time together before he leaves! :)

Pick me, pick me! I'm about 2 weeks away from delivering my first child, and this would be a great last hurrah brunch date for me and my husband!

My girlfriend is an angel and has never been to The Peabody for brunch. She would flip over this!!!

My girlfriend and I would ball out and eat all the food. She's Type 1 and with that 32-foot dessert bar we'd probably go to the hospital.

I would love to go to this Sunday Brunch. I am a single mother that has been trying to live beyond the system. Currently I am in between jobs due to a recent layoff from my last job. Although I have experience a financial challenge at the moment, I am still my normal cheerful self not allowing my current circumstances to still my peace or joy. The brunch for me would be a rewarding factor because it would be part of my new beginning winning a complimentary meal and as well as winning toward by financial breakthrough.

I would love two tickets and take my 92 year old Dad. He’s a true Memphian, had a 125 year old family business here and contributed to the Memphis community in so many ways for many years. He loves The Peabody and always thinks it’s a treat to be able to go.

My family has been in Memphis for like, six generations and none of us has ever deigned to got to the Peabody for anything other than the duck parade. To actually sit and eat at the hotel would be both a treat and a service!

My husband and I are new to Memphis and we would love to experience this as a new Easter tradition!

Finally made it to last major holiday away from home before graduating this May! If I can’t be home in Ohio with family, it would be wonderful to celebrate Easter with a friend at a Memphis staple like The Peabody! (And I wouldn’t have to do the dishes after!)

My mom used to work as a chef at the Peabody .. ages ago. We used to go brunch often as a family. I think If i win I would love to take her. Maybe some old memories for us will pop up. I remember how good the food was.

I would like to go to Easter Brunch at the Peabody because I've never been in the 5 years I have lived in Memphis and honestly am dying to go. My roommate and I aren't able to be with our families this Easter which is a pretty big bummer, but being able to enjoy this brunch might make that a little easier :). Thanks!

Thank you for all of your wonderful suggestions for things to do/eat/see around Memphis! I moved here a year ago and frequent your blog weekly to find fun things to do around the city - your suggestions have never let me down! This year will be the first time I won’t be able to spend Easter at home with my family in 28 years. While that makes me sad, I’m also looking forward to starting some of our own Easter traditions here in Memphis. The Peabody brunch is at the top of my Memphis bucket list, so winning this giveaway would be a dream come true! Thanks again for all of your wonderful posts! -Taylor

I enjoyed the Peabody Brunch once in 1986 when it was in the Skyway. It was one of the most memorable meals of my life but I was forced to leave the table long before I wanted, to send off my mother and some friends who had chartered a bus to come up from Huntsville Ala. for the weekend. While they were dragging me out of the Skyway told myself I would do brunch there again soon. But alas, I have yet to make it back for this fabulous brunch. This year on my birthday in February my husband offered to take me but I was born on Valentine Day and of course we couldn't get reservations. The Peabody Brunch is now on my bucket list and I swear if I ever make it back it won't be the last time. I don't have kids and we have no other plans for Easter Sunday so we are certainly available. Thank you.

My boyfriend and I have always talked about brunch at the Peabody. This would be an extra special chance to go and have brunch. We are huge foodies and would cherish every delicious bite! Plus, it would make for a great day date downtown.

My future husband and I have lived in the Memphis area since October 2016. His job is very strenuous (as an inland commercial diver) and is 100% on call 24/7 for any emergency response jobs on the Mississippi River. We have not spent the past 2 Christmas's together, missed anniversaries and countless holidays since we moved. It would be an absolute treat to spend Easter at the Peabody (as he has never seen in inside of the hotel). I have taken family members to see the ducks and he has always been envious! Thank you for your consideration!

My parents! They never do anything for themselves and I think this would be a wonderful opportunity for them this year as me and my sister will be out of town with our families for the first time ever. So for the first time in 28 years they will have Easter without us and I think it would be a wonderful time for them to get out of the house and spend quality time together.

New to Memphis ! Never been to the Peabody yet so this is the perfect opportunity. I love following ilovememphisblog for all things to do in Memphis, and so far the past 3 months have been nothing short of wonderful!!! I would love to enjoy a wonderful Easter Sunday brunch after mass. I would take my lovely boyfriend who would love all the yummy desserts, and even though will be away from family this year we can start our own traditions.

Pick me! I would love to eat at the Peabody, because with my husband we have never been there before, we're two frenchies living here for almost 3 years! This year again we're spending Easter far from our families so this brunch would be a perfect treat to celebrate Easter!

I would enjoy the opportunity to have a delicious brunch experience at the Peabody because fine dining always enhances your life. What better way to sample the best parts of meals than by going to brunch. What a wonderful way to capture exquisite scenery at Memphis' most popular hotel.
