We had just finished at the aquarium, across the street, and our kids had started to play outside. After about an hour or so, we decided it was time to sugar them further and continue the afternoon at a park! Luckily, downtown dough was there and ready to help with the sugaring. It's got a lovely seating area with a number of small couches one which to chillax! The offerings include cookie dough slices- including vegan options. Gluten is best and it's nice for our gluten intolerant friends. The offerings range from sugar cookie to basically a candy garbage can. The 4 we sampled were lovely! They also have caffeine options, pops, and a number of freeze dried candies - didn't know I loved freeze dried air heads until today! A solid spot, especially to get the kids something to keep them going ! read more

Ehh, it's ok. I mean it does taste like cookie dough and is good. So that's worth a 3 at least. I'd say it's bland and service matched that/. No atmosphere at all. Also, very expensive. 2 small pieces were 11 dollars. I would think just go buy a dozen cookies instead. Maybe they should also sell cookies??? Good idea, but with the super high price I doubt I'll be back read more

The shop looked so cute from the outside, but unfortunately, the atmosphere inside was a letdown. It had an odd smell--like a mix of bathroom covered up by strong cleaning products--which was off-putting. The way the dough was displayed didn't look very appealing either. Had there been other people inside, I probably would've walked out, but I felt awkward being the only one there. I purchased two cookie dough "bricks" at $4.99 each, and while the flavor was actually good, they were noticeably different in size and weight despite being the same price. One was much larger and thicker than the other, which felt inconsistent for a premium-priced product. For a place that charges a higher price point, I expected a more thoughtfully designed shop and presentation. Honestly, the dough would've been so much more appealing scooped into a cup with a spoon instead of wrapped in plastic. The product has potential, but the overall experience really needs a refresh. read more

No samples, so it was a little hard for my son & I to decide what we wanted since it was our first visit. I asked a very specific question about the strawberry ice cream & was told one thing...but the ice cream was nothing like I asked/was told. The worker mixes the milkshakes out of sight (behind a curtain) which could be a little concerning. And customers are not allowed to use the restroom--even just to wash hands. read more

We got cookies n cream ice cream and a slice of sugar cookie dough. The cookie dough tasty but a lil salty. It was $4.99 a slice which seemed a lil much that you can buy a whole thing or ready to bake cookie dough at the store for the same cost and it wouldn't be salty. The lady working there was super sweet and said she opened her shop 4 years ago. I got the rasp berry ice cream which had chocolate raspberry buttons and raspberry swirls. It was pretty tasty. Cookies n cream, my daughter couldn't explain but she said she liked it. read more

I decided to post about this small business, because I am a small business owner. I understand the doubt and the fear that can consume you if you don't have faith. And when you have faith and you trust God, you do all things unto God. And that even means serving ice cream, or making the best homemade cookie dough in he country. The owner of this business has always shown up to support her community and she tirelessly supports her family. She had a dream and followed it. She faithfully serves and doesn't give up even though there are plenty of reasons to. I hope many others show up to support Downtown Dough dough, not only for the best service and best treats, but because we should always be cheering for the small business owners who answer mostly to Mom and Dad. Cheers to you, Cindy! read more

Fabulous. As a resident Chattanoogan with a big sweet tooth I have tried almost every desert place in Chatt and can say that the new Downtown Dough is up there with the best of them. The woman serving us (owner possibly?) was very kind and helpful. She told us about how the cookie dough is made and what makes it different from other competitions like the cookie dough store on northshore. The desserts itself were delicious. They tasted like actual cookie dough, not just some amalgamation that's scooped into an ice cream cup. The dough was COLD, authentic, and tasted like something straight from my mom's kitchen. I really hope this business takes off and has a successful run here in Chatt. It felt like I was at an old time fudge shop at the boardwalk but with the previously forbidden raw cookie dough as the main attraction. I'm also excited to see they have coffee, drinks, and banana popsicles which I'll have to go back for! tl;dr best cookie dough place in chattanooga, if you are caught up in the "craze" that's the no bake cookie dough and left feeling unsatisfied you will find that satisfaction here read more

This is by far the best safe-to-eat cookie dough I have had. The cookies and cream and a bottle of milk is the perfect duo. The consistency is perfect and it doesn't feel greasy or a weird temperature. The owner is also super friendly, and the location is great right next to the bridge. Definitely the best cookie dough option in the area, and they even offer options for people who are on special diets or have restrictions. read more

Overpriced and ice cream was not good. It definitely was a tourist trap by the aquarium.

Delicious cookie dough!! Cute store!! Super friendly owner and employee!! Definitely will be a place we frequent when in Chattanooga!

It's ok. Cute little place. It is not local ice cream, just Hershey's. Only other thing they have is raw cookie dough, and only a pre pieces. Not terrible, but not what we expected. read more

Really great place for sweet treats! I highly recommend and the staff is so nice and friendly

Best ice cream in Chattanooga. The owner is so sweet and accommodating!!! If you walk across the Walnut Street walking bridge it's worth the one block walk down the hill for the real deal. It's amazing read more

Great place and they offer keto options!! Love the downtown location and it's so much better than Cold Stone or Ben and Jerry's!!

This little shop was a lovely surprise to find. We both got a cookie dough slice and ice cream. I love that she caters to Keto friendly and Gluten Free. The owner was very nice and helpful, and we really enjoyed sitting in her shop, taking refuge from the hot day. read more

If unbaked cookie dough is your thing, this new cafe is worth a stop. Ambiance is super light and airy and very clean. We met the woman owner and she was so welcoming and warm. All the cookie dough is made in-house with obviously no raw eggs and they also offer Keto and Vegan versions! In addition to 6-10 flavors (menu changes daily and depends on season), they have "fruit pizzas" and sugar cake pops and everything is displayed in a refrigerated case. Only a few pieces of each were put out at the time of our visit, but I assume it's to keep the dough fresh so that they're not sitting out too long. I personally can't eat too much cookie dough before getting tired of it, so I was hoping there'd be a couple of baked cookies also available for sale. Unfortunately not, but I get that that would involve a lot more work because the ingredients would be different and involve eggs, baking soda, etc. There is also basic iced or hot coffee available, but it's just a keurig FYI for all you coffee snobs. read more

I have a lot of food sensitivities and it is not often I can find sweet treats while traveling. I was excited to see Downtown Dough had vegan options and I was not disappointed! If you are looking for a sweet treat while downtown or walking across the bridge look no further! read more

Right next to the Tennessee aquarium. We had a great experience and talked to the owner for a bit about the city. She is awesome. Her strawberry cheesecake ice cream and cookie dough is delicious, and the keto option party cookie dough is really good. You can't even tell. A real cookie dough experience. The only question to be begged is... How is there so much delicious cookie dough and none of it is cooked...*hint hint to owner*? Amazing local business. read more

We were out for a walk downtown and noticed something was open here since Rita's closed and decided to stop in. We're glad we did! My husband and I split a white chocolate cranberry cookie dough. It was really good, a good balance of salty and sweet. It was gone before we made it back to the car. Our only regret is that we only got one to share. read more
