Big thank you to the locals I met last night at La Altena for recommending this place! The wife,…read moreAnna, stated "if you want a good cup of coffee and an excellent pastry, this is your morning stop!" Even a little after 10am on a Saturday, you can tell this place is a very popular hangout. I waited in line for about 10 minutes, but the line moves fast. I concur with other reviewers that the staff is so friendly, helpful and energetic. I ordered a Cafe Au Lait with a shot of caramel syrup. Once I looked at the pastry items, I knew the Blueberry Lavender scone had my name all over it! I sat outside on a sidewalk bistro table and enjoyed both items immensely on a gorgeous Chattanooga morning. This place also has inside seating as well as a nice patio setup. So happy I got to experience this place! (P.S. The line is still out the door when I left!) :)

we are on vacation here in chattanooga and decided to check out Oddstory since we love breweries, i…read morealso came across it on instagram when looking for places to try in the area. they had a nice selection of draft and craft beers. my bf loved the cloud walker. i was disappointed they didn't have any ciders on tap, i've been to many breweries and taprooms that have cider on tap. this is the only reason for 4 stars as i would expect more options on tap across the board. they had some specialty cocktail selections as well. we absolutely loved the food we ordered. i wanted to try the elote fries i saw on the instagram post and they look just as good in person and taste as good as they look. i don't think the type of frozen fries they are would be as good by themselves but with all the elote topping they were the bomb dot com. i also got the taquitos and they were perfectly spicy and creamy and delicious. perfect amount of sauce drizzled on top to get some in every bite. i would eat here again and again just to try everything else. i love the idea of fusion street food. they got it going on. i noticed some reviews here about the ordering style. there is a window outside to order food and pick it up. however, you CAN order food at the bar inside. we asked and did order food at the bar same time as ordering drinks. but you do pick it up outside. they came and bussed the tables frequently to remove drinks and trash. there is so much space and were so many options for seating which is great. it's way too hot outside this week to enjoy sitting outside unfortunately and while they had some fans going, not enough during this extreme heat watch happening right now. i had my two children with me and would've enjoyed sitting outside in the family/kid area on another day with nice weather. as a mom, my only suggestion for the family area is less tables and more space for children to run and play. they only offered some chalk to scribble on the sidewalk. ((back home we have a brewery, called 3rd Planet, with a kid area that is sectioned off with a fence and netting for kids to run around, throw balls, and truly play and have fun while the adults enjoy a minute to relax and unwind.)) we got lucky and it happened to be bingo night! that was such a fun time with my family. it was a packed house i'm guessing because of bingo night. the swag shop has plenty of options and i got a pint glass for only $7 to remember this great vacation in chattanooga:)

I ordered the grilled cheese and tomato soup, and it absolutely hit the spot. The sandwich was loaded with gooey melted cheese and had an epic cheese pull that every grilled cheese lover dreams about. Paired with the rich, comforting tomato soup, it was the ultimate rainy-day meal. The food came out quickly, and everything was hot and delicious. As a sweet surprise, they brought me complimentary birthday beignets with strawberry sauce. They were light, fluffy, and the strawberry sauce was the perfect finishing touch. Great food, fast service, and a thoughtful birthday treat made for a wonderful experience. I'd definitely stop by again the next time I'm in Chattanooga.

Milk & Honey absolutely lived up to the hype. We went for breakfast, and despite the fact that they…read moredon't take reservations, we didn't have to wait at all which already felt like a small miracle. Our server Katie was fantastic. Since it was our first visit and everything on the menu spoke to us, she helped steer us in the right direction. I ended up ordering the pistachio croissant, and honestly... I'd go back for that alone. It was warm, huge by croissant standards, and absolutely heavenly. I even grabbed another one to take home because Future Me deserved a little happiness too. We also tried the raspberry lemon danish, which was a delicious combo, but the pistachio croissant stole the show without breaking a sweat. We started with the poutine, and while it wasn't the traditional version I've had before, it was incredible. Instead of cheese curds blocks, it came with pulled pork and melted cheese, and somehow it just worked. Comfort food with a little Southern flair. For breakfast, we had the ham and cheese omelet with breakfast potatoes. It was exactly what you want it to be--classic, satisfying, and impossible to regret if that's your usual order. I also tried the Liquid Gold juice. Their juice selection is impressive, but I may have accidentally found my forever order on the first try. It was so refreshing, with just a hint of ginger. For a hot drink, I highly recommend the London fog. I'm not usually a tea fan but if you don't want coffee, this is an excellent option. Before we left, we picked up some of their salted caramels to go, and they make the perfect little gift... assuming you have enough self-control not to eat them all in the car. The vibe here is upscale southern diner. One of the signs on the wall said, "All are welcome, but you need to act right," and honestly, that's the kind of life advice we could all use. I also really appreciated that parking was free. In Chattanooga these days it's hard finding a place where you don't have to scan a QR code, download an app, and pay to park just to eat. Great food, great atmosphere, great service. Milk & Honey is absolutely worth a visit...and if you're debating the pistachio croissant, stop debating and just order it. Your only regret will be not getting a second one.
