Outside of the restaurant

Enjoyed a recent visit on a Friday for dinner. We came with a recommendation from someone local. Great views out front, worth taking time to sit and enjoy. The food was good and plentiful. We probably should have split a meal. The grilled chicken was good and had a similar seasoning to steak. The sides were great as well. We took a cupcake to go to enjoy later. It was fantastic too! Service was good and food came out quick.

I was recommended this place by a buddy. I live in the Soddy area so it was a bit of hike. The Mac and cheese is some sort of off brand Kraft and it was cold. The meatloaf was mushy. And the mashed potatoes seemed to be fresh but with no gravy. I was the only table not offered bread as well. Also for what it was? Cost me $37 dollars for one person. I suggest going to home folks for better food

Hello dear reader. To start it off, amazing food! I got the popcorn shrimp with fried okra, mashed potatoes and French fries with honey mustard. Absolutely delicious. The shrimp were cooked perfectly and the mashed potatoes were the perfect texture. As a Florida boy that was raised on mashed potatoes those were some amazing mashed potatoes. The waiters were always around and willing to help at any given point and are very polite and helpful! The decoration was very calming and I know it's called the cookie jar cafe but the vibes here are definitely cafe, the type of place you could talk for hours. Overall 10/10 place to eat and would definitely recommend! Amazing service, wait time, food and definitely the deserts.

A little off the beaten path, this is worth a visit. Dog friendly covered outdoor eating area, though it could use an operating water fountain/spigot. Cozy interior. Ordered at the counter and the food was delivered to us at the covered seating. Food came with cornbread muffins that we did not order. We figure they are part of the meal. Unfortunately, they were quite dry and lacked flavor. Everything else was quite good. Did not sample any of the desserts but they looked very good.

We received a recommendation to try out the Cookie Jar Cafe, so we took a road trip out into the beautiful country side of Dunlap, TN. The property is beautiful, and we enjoyed taking in the view from the parking lot. We decided to sit inside instead of outside for dinner. We started off with the rolls and corn muffins, and the rolls were delicious!! I ordered the plate where you pick a meat and sides. I did the daily special and tried the chicken casserole, which was stuffing with chicken. For my sides I ordered deviled eggs, creamed corn and mashed potatoes. For dessert, I had a cupcake, and it was dry but the frosting was good. The food was average. I do love the family history and story behind the cafe which you can read on the back of the menu. The assortment of cookie jars were cute decorations and fun to look at. There were a lot of flys inside the restaurant.

I started off my Mother'Day weekend celebration by taking my Mom to this Southern gem! We saw the cafe from the road while exploring the backroads of Dunlap one day a few months ago. An hour behind Chattanooga time on CST, we picked the perfect day and time of 11 am to hang out here and enjoy tasty food! We started our meal off with coffee and homemade corn muffins on the porch. For lunch, we each got a cheeseburger, Mom ordering a side of sweet potato fries with hers and I ordered a side of hushpuppies with mine. We got an order of fried pickle spears as an appetizer. Goal: Southern Saturday Comfort Food All of their ingredients are from local farms. Cookie Jar Cafe emerged out of a family trying to save their farm. The cafe feels like home, looks like relaxing with family and friends while enjoying delicious homemade food. The coffee was yummy. The fried pickle spears were the perfect tasty crunch! Our burgers were perfect. The hushpuppies were huge deliciousness! Mom had to get a to go box for just the sweet potato fries because there were so many. And then.....we ordered dessert to go....two slices of homemade pie: coconut and butterscotch. Southern Saturday Vibes.

Cat fish was undercooked & my cupcake had to be a few days old. Very dry. The cornbread was dry & the rolls were hard. Service was good.

Food was flavorless... Petting zoo was fun though... Better off going to soddy and finding food. Waste of money.

Morning Brew - Menu

Morning Brew

(18 reviews)

This is a refreshing little coffee shop on the Lee Highway side of Cambridge Square in Ooltewah…read more The beats, brews and visuals generate a vibe that makes landing my agenda and to-do list in the sweet spot of my overloaded brain. I mostly settle in with a tea, but there are baked treats and crepes available if you need a bite with your brew. The staff are pretty chill and ready to help. It can get pretty busy on the weekends, so I aim for the end of the day to get a good seat. Internet is easily accessible and free of time limits. There are a lot of great spots on this end of the county, so it can be hard to choose. You can't go wrong with this one.

I came here with a friend in the morning, and it was so nice and quiet. For some reason the past…read morefew times I've came here, it was always so busy. My friends and I were always lucky to snag a table for us those times. But coming in the morning is really pleasant. I've only gotten coffee here in the past, so this time we got food. I got a Pistachio Croffin (croissant muffin) and we shared a Berries and Cream crepe. And that first bite of that crepe was absolutely delicious. We were planning on sharing that crepe with another friend, but that crepe was so good we demolished it haha. We ended up ordering the Spinach Pesto crepe to share for later instead. But wow, I have nothing but praise for these crepes because they blew me away. The Berries and Cream crepe was just amazing. Fruits tasted fresh and juicy. The crepe itself was perfectly sweet. And the whipped cream cheese filling inside was light and creamy. I couldn't ask for more in a fruit crepe. Also the light drizzle of sweetened condensed milk on top? Chef's kiss. And then we tried the Spinach and Pesto crepe. It had all my favorite things inside, so of course I loved it. I loved the savory pesto spread inside the crepe, the spinach, ricotta, and parmesan cheese sprinkled on top. The tomatoes added a nice acidity to balance and the balsalmic glaze tied it all together on top. It felt like applause roared in my mouth. Also I can't forget the Pistachio Croffin I ate too. It had great texture, and had that subtle nutty flavor from the pistachio. I really liked it. Anyways, I'm a big Morning Brew fan. It's poppin' in the afternoon and it's tough getting a seat, but it's not hard to see why. I prefer the early mornings for a more quiet and less chaotic atmosphere. Love you morning brew! I will always remember how those crepes rocked my world and I'll definitely be back.

Jennings Coffee & Tea

I came here to get something hot before going out to explore the area. Not being from around here I…read moredidn't really know where to go, but decided to try Jennings because it was close to where I was staying. I am so glad I did. The service was super friendly and the drinks are delicious. It's a really cute coffee shop, good sized with plenty of seating. They have coffee options, teas, blended drinks and non coffee drinks. They also have pastries and breakfast options too. I got their hot chocolate and one of their loos leaf teas. Their hot chocolate was absolute delicious. Creamy, richly and velvety. The lady said that they make their mix in house and it's really good. Much better than just some chocolate syrup steamed up with milk. I got their lychee hot tea, which I have never had before and I love it. It's light and slightly fruity and just has great flavors. I was really happy to find this place and lucky it was so close to my hotel. Between their service and their drinks I will definitely be back whenever I am in the area and needing something tasty.

Great spot for a coffee. All kinds of flavored coffees, mochas, lattes, etc. great service…read more Comfortable place to sit and relax. No expectation that you can speak a second language of hipster coffee to successfully order a drink (anyone else want to hurt the people at that other chain store ordering triple shot, non-fat, almond juice, free range, grass fed, no whip choca latte?). Much more relaxed. Mocha was delicious. Kids say "they had scones". (Great contribution kids, thanks)
