I went to several breweries on a recent trip to Chattanooga and Oddstory was the best. They have 2…read morelocations and we went to both. The first one we stopped at was just outside of the downtown area. Very cool spot with an outdoor area. Ate there as well, and food was really good. That evening we went to the one downtown, near our hotel, and it was a really nice space. They call it the Greenhouse, and you can see why, tons of hanging plants. They don't allow children after a certain time, which we arrived just after, but they were cool about us coming in with my 8yo. Great beer, great food, great space, and great staff.

Stopped by because my husband wanted to try the burger. Didn't realize the food is a stand within…read morethe brewery. Not a huge deal, but kinda annoying to wait in the giant line instead of having a server (it was busy). My salad was ... fine. I liked the sauce but the chicken was a tad overcooked and dry. Burger was decent but not crispy on the edges like some smash burgers. I think the food is decent if you come here to drink, but I wouldn't go just to eat. The spot is cool and would be nice to sit outside on a nice day. You can bring dogs but you have to control where they potty which seems unlikely at least with our dogs lol.

While we were driving up to Five Wits, i notice there was a beautiful wing mural on the side of…read moretheir building out front. We parked and before even going inside we went out front to take some the sun started to set too much. The mirror is done by a professional artist known for her beautiful wing designs. On the patio that we walked past to get to the inside was a live band playing, and there were a ton of cute dogs all over with their owners enjoying the music. It was the cutest sight. Inside there are 2 sections of the brewery, but they had the front closed so we couldn't use the back smaller part. I liked the small part to be honest with you. It wasn't super small, but it was much more quaint looking. Service was super friendly, offering us a samples of anything that we would like to try, but of course, we ultimately got a flight. Luckily for me , they also had the Lions game on so I was able to see the end of the game and our victory. They do have food on their menus, and I can definitely see us returning it to this location when we're in Chattanooga again.

Five Wits came highly recommended but I was not a fan. I visited on a Friday at noon. There were a…read morehandful of people inside and it became a bit more crowded while I was there. Only the back part of the brewery was open, with an indoor and outdoor area, a couple TVs, and eclectic decor. They were running a promo: $3 for a 10 oz beer or $3 for a 16oz beer if you buy food. We got the Bird Watcher Kellerbier and Sunblaze American IPA -- both were fine. We also got the Mission-style burrito with al pastor ($11), as a Super Burrito ($2 upcharge for sour cream and avocado). This was the worst burrito I've had in a long time. Al pastor should be a balance of sweet and spicy; this was overpoweringly sweet. The side salsas had no heat, either. Mission-style burritos are known for their size, but this was a normal burrito, smaller than I would get at Chipotle. It took about 20 minutes to get the burrito which was too long.

What a vibe! Honestly such a great place that I'm so glad I found. The servers are excellent and…read morehonestly what a great location downtown. They have a beautiful patio to enjoy the weather or two floors inside for if the weather isn't quite what you're looking for. The pizza is honestly one of the best I've had, and the beer options are constantly changing and absolutely delicious. Love that they're family and dog friendly. They check all the boxes I look for and more, definitely give it a try! I know I'll keep coming back for more.

I visited Saturday around 11:30 PM. A handful of people were there but the place got busier by the…read moretime I left around 1 PM. I sat at the bar and service was friendly but couldn't quite keep up. The only staff was a lone bartender trying to handle guests sitting at the bar, walk up guests (usually enough to form a line), plus actually pouring the drinks. For example, I was able to order beer and food from him at our seats, but I had to get in line with everyone else to close out. I had a flight of four beers (5oz each for $10 total): Cloud Walker Pale Ale, Pemberley Summer Brown, Golden Blackbird Belgian Blonde, and Numinous Strong Ale. All were good. I appreciated the variety. I also like that, even though some pints were more expensive than others, the flight was a flat $10 regardless. I got fries ($5) and the Greenhouse Smash Burger ($10). They are made by a food truck in the back and you have to pick up the food yourself. The fries were typical mass market frozen fries, the ones with the crispy exterior -- you'll probably recognize them in the photo. They were typical. The burger was very good but a little small. There wasn't enough meat to balance out the sauce and toppings; I would do a double patty next time. Overall, a little overpriced at $15 for a small burger and fries. I liked the decor a lot -- modern with lots of plants.

Hazy ipa and coffee porter was good too. They have a small bar and a big back room with board games you can play. When we visited, there were several dogs in the front bar area who were quite aggressive -barking and growling- so I was a bit uncomfortable trying to get around them to go to the bathroom. They do not have food, so plan to bring your own if you visit and feel like a nosh.

We went during their opening and I was a little disappointed but don't judge places at opening. I have gone back a couple times since and it's great!! They hit all the marks.

Also their coconut frozen marg is truly my favorite frozen drink in the city. Service is always great! The atmosphere is great for a chill hang.

We sat outside on a beautiful day at a picnic table. The exterior could use a little more ambiance. They had The Masters on a big screen which is a nice touch. Music would be nice. Also recommend replacing the rocks with artificial turf. Parents are allowing kids to scatter and play with the rocks and they are strewn around everywhere.

Our waiter was super helpful and made everything easy -- friendly, quick, and on top of things. I have a gluten allergy, so I really appreciated that they had gluten-free buns and other options. Even better, the bun actually tasted good -- which is rare. A lot of places serve dry, flavorless gluten-free bread, but this one held up and made the meal even better. Overall, the food was great, the service was solid, and we even had leftovers. Would definitely come back.

We did not have to wait too long to get a seat. The interior is like you are in an old hut on the beach during spring break - very funky vibe with a lot of hilarious decor. The waiter was friendly but they were so busy, I had to walk up to the bar area to get a refill. I ordered: Cobra Kai burger - delicious! This had cream cheese, pepper jelly, and pickled jalapenos. It had sweet, spicy, creamy, and savory, great combo. The only downside is the burgers are on the small side. Co-worker who had been there before confirmed this was the normal size, not paired down for Burger week. Crinkle cut fries - the kitchen timed these puppies just right. They came to the table, hot with a slight crisp on the outside. What put these over the top was this savory sauce called JB Sauce they brought to the table. Dang that sauce is a flavor enhancer for sure!

The bartender was kind enough to change one of the TVs to have the Lions game on so that I could enjoy my team while Ben enjoyed his team the Broncos playing. Sadly, they didn't have many beers of their own on tap while we were there so I just ordered a drink from their menu that sounded yummy. I also ordered their Poke. Wouldn't you know it, Ben suddenly became hungry once the food came out and looked delicious. I only shared a little because it was really good and he "wasn't hungry" before I made my choice. We didn't stay long as we wanted to get in as many breweries as possible before our flight out late that evening.

Overall it is certainly one of the more unique places I have visited in the Chattanooga area.

This is a spot for anyone who likes a great cocktail - no matter your age. Low lighting with tiny LEDs in the ceiling to make you feel like you are enjoying a night under the stars (without the summer heat or the winter chill). No idea what you want? Have one of the super friendly bartenders whip you up a beautiful drink with an infused ice cube to top it off. Matilda, we are very happy you're back! There are far too many bars in the area that are loud and stressful, but you have real class with an ambiance that beckons.
