13 Best Cafes in Chattanooga

“I’ve been eating here for a short time. But no matter what you order the food is made fresh with generous portions.“

“This was our first time at this amazing fully vegan spot on our way from IL to FL. While we have enjoyed other vegan restaurants in the area in the past, this is by far our favorite. We enjoyed the Thai Chili Bowl and the Reuben (aka Little Steppenwolf) along with a dumpling appetizer that was on special. Everything tasted so delicious and the owners were friendly and very customer service forward, accommodating my request for very low oil. We were so happy to find this spot and will be visiting again next time we are in Chattanooga.“

“Good food and good service and a family friendly staff.“

“Mary’s plate lunches are the best! No cans in her kitchen. Homemade desserts are delicious. And the grill is manned by Christopher and they will melt in your mouth YUMBO! The staff is attentive to your needs and they love the customers. No wonder they have been and stayed in business since 1918. Family owned and now run by the 4th generation. I’ve even seen the 5th and 6th generation helping when they are “in the weeds”. You owe it to yourself to eat there.“

“What a terrific organization and powerful mission. I am so glad to have had the opportunity to learn more about your programs.“

“Rachel is the best. She is bound and determined she will find a drink you’ll like and make it for you! The shop is cute and the service is A1. Couldn’t ask for better service and atmosphere! If you haven’t been yet, quit wasting your time and go and see Rachel and get that drink!“

“We happened to stop by for dinner on our way through town on a Halloween trivia night, which was a lot of fun! We ordered a Buddha bowl, a miso healthy salad with extra avocado (of course!), and chocolate chip cookies (gluten free!). My husband was able to have a beer or two, which he enjoyed. The food was outstanding and felt so healthy. This spot will be added as one of our favorite spots for cross-country driving. We had a wonderful evening. Thank you to everyone!“

“We ordered a German chocolate cake for my dads birthday and it was phenomenal! One of the best cakes we've ever had 😋“

“soooo good! I'm a traveling musician and it's always hard to find good vegan grub on the road but dang this spot was worth the pit stop for sure! I had the fish sandwich and carrot salad and i got one of evey desert they had just ya know.... for the road 😏. 10/10 ...that brownie set a whole new bar. My only complaint is that i wish yall were closer to Nashville ❤️🤘“

“We came in and there was a 40 minute wait, however the sweet girl offered us a spot at the bar and we took it because we needed coffee bad. 😃 We were served immediately and placed our order. The food was delicious but the people were amazing. Mattson and Emily took excellent care of us and we thoroughly enjoyed the conversation with them about things to do in the area. If you are offered a seat at the bar take it! 10/10 recommend! To the manager, I hope you know you have a great staff, which is rare these days. We had just left another restaurant (A.F.) because the guy behind the bar was so rude to us and our server. We walked out of there and into “Milk and Honey”. Thank you Mattson and Emily!“
