Stacked with Soul: The Deli at South Point Grocery

We’re not trying to be the fanciest, flashiest, or most-followed sandwich shop in Memphis. We’re just trying to feed our neighbors—and do it well.

At South Point Grocery, our deli started simple: a few sandwiches, made fresh, with ingredients we believed in and care we could stand behind. Then Chef Josh McLane stepped behind the counter, and things started getting real tasty, real fast.

What’s happening in our deli today is still rooted in that same spirit—hospitality first, good food second, and a whole lot of Memphis personality in every layer.

Meet Josh McLane: Sandwich Maker, Music Man, Memphian

Josh McLane is a lot of things—chef, comedian, punk musician, longtime service industry vet. But here at South Point, he’s the guy behind your new favorite sandwich.

A South Memphis native with a deep love for feeding people (and making them laugh while he’s at it), Josh joined our team in 2022. Since then, he’s brought energy, creativity, and a whole lot of flavor to our small-but-mighty deli counter.

He doesn’t overcomplicate it—he just gets it right. House-made pimento cheese, roasted pork, layers that stack like a slow jam, and specials that somehow feel familiar and brand new at the same time.

What We’re Serving

We’re proud of what comes out of our kitchen, but we’re not trying to reinvent the wheel. We’re just doing it right—fresh ingredients, made-to-order, with flavor and care.

Here are a few of our regulars’ favorites from the South Point sandwich menu:

  • The South Main Cuban – Roasted pork, ham, Swiss, mustard, and pickles on Cuban bread. Pressed, melty, crispy edges—this one never misses.
  • The Breezy BLT – Classic bacon, lettuce, tomato… with a Southern twist. Our house-made pimento cheese takes it to another level.
  • The Josh Club – A meat-lover’s dream with turkey, ham, bacon, cheese, and all the fixings. Stacked high and full of personality.
  • The East Memphis Veggie – For our veggie-loving friends: roasted vegetables, gooey cheese, and house pesto. All flavor, no filler.
  • Breakfast Sandwiches All Day – Because not everyone’s morning starts at 7 a.m. We serve these eggy, cheesy beauties whenever you need one.

Josh also throws in surprise specials from time to time—whatever he’s feeling that week, or whatever’s fresh and funky. Just ask at the counter.

Not Just for Lunch Breaks

Maybe you’re stopping by on your lunch break. Maybe you’re wandering in on a Saturday with a friend and an appetite. Or maybe you just want something comforting, easy, and delicious after a long day.

No matter why you’re here, our deli is for you. There’s no dress code, no pressure, and no wrong time for a good sandwich.

And if you’re grabbing for the whole crew? We’ve got grab-and-go options, bulk sandwich trays, and catering solutions for office lunches, team meetings, or group picnics in South City.

A Little Bit About How We Do Things

Here’s what you can expect every time you order from the South Point deli:

  • Real hospitality, whether it’s your first visit or your fiftieth
  • No-frills food, done with care and a little Memphis funk
  • A place to sit, snack, sip, and stay a while—because our patio was made for slow lunches and loud laughs

This isn’t fast food. It’s thoughtful food, made by folks who care.
