South of Beale was the first gastropub in downtown Memphis.  Also known as SOB, this comfortable South Main pub serves sophisticated cuisine in an unpretentious atmosphere. 

The urban-chic ambience, complete with edgy works of local art, is a great setting for fine dining as well as having a beer with buddies. 

The menu changes seasonally and is an inspired, daring culinary adventure.  SOB offers a variety of food, from burgers to seared tuna, but even the usual staples are served with an inventive twist. 

SOB is a non-smoking establishment and a great place to have a dinner date or watch a game.  They have regular happy hours, specials, and an intriguing late-night menu.
