She’s been in business since 1981 and is committed to creating a memorable event and dining experience for every possible occasion.

Barnes also owns and operates Just for Lunch, a local restaurant that is comfortably nestled in the Chickasaw Oaks Village at 3092 Poplar Ave, Suite 11, in Memphis. Stop by and you’ll see, like we did, that it’s the quaintest restaurant in town. The atmosphere is reminiscent of tearooms, and they have a variety of delicious menu items. Classics include chicken salad, albacore tuna salad, pimento cheese, egg-and-olive, and ham salad. The salad selection is substantial and includes Southern chopped salad, Mediterranean salad, pasta salad with Brie, and the Just for Lunch club salad. Sandwiches, soups, and desserts are also available. We stopped by yesterday and had a wonderful lunch out on the patio. I had the BLT & avocado sandwich with a side of fresh fruit, and Beth had the grilled chicken sandwich with a side of fresh fruit. Both were amazing!

The adorable patio where we enjoyed our lunch.

Just for Lunch is open Monday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., and Just Catering is available for events of all sizes. Contact them today or give them at call at 901-454-0755 for more information, and be sure to visit their web site to view their catering menu. Bon Appetit!
