I randomly discovered this hotel bar late one night as I was walking along in downtown Chattanooga and noticed their sign. On walking in I discovered this was quite an interesting and eclectic spot for an adult beverage. They do have a very interesting selection of beverages and the patrons were even more interesting than the beverages. You get excellent service here along with the fantastic ambiance. This is a very unique and fascinating spot in Chattanooga to investigate as part of your adventures in the downtown area. Overall it is certainly one of the more unique places I have visited in the Chattanooga area. read more

Need a place to wind down with a drink and a few close friends? Need an intimate spot for a cute date night and meaningful conversation you can actually hear? 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. read more

Matilda Midnight - Delicious hand crafted cocktails. - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Chattanooga, Tennessee

I love the atmosphere of this venue. The drink menu is eclectic. The ingredients are fresh and he cocktails are unique. It's a great place to go for conversation (just a tip, you don't want to come here if you are going to get rowdy) - they'll keep you quiet. Lol. But the bartenders are great, and you'll let loose underneath the starry sky. Try the hangman, it's my favorite. Drinks are around 9 to 12 each' they also have food For snacking! read more

I wanted to love Matilda Midnight, because it's absolutely beautiful. But when we stopped by for a few drinks after dinner this past Friday night, we didn't love our drinks. So while the bar is a gorgeous mid-century modern space, the drinks didn't really hit the spot for us. I'd give it another shot on looks alone, but we'd definitely try different drinks! read more

Matilda Midnight is a really cool cocktail bar with the right vibe for the experience at the Dwell Hotel. They have an excellent and interesting selection of craft cocktails. read more

Sat at the bar... fantastic service. Good peeps. Dinner: Duck Confit. Duck, fabulous. Sides missed their mark with me but the pea mint puree had 2 things I'm not a fan of. So not really fair for me to review that unless they defied the odds. Chocolate ganache cheesecake was solid. Great options for cocktails & vino. Definitely a great chill place. Perfect Tuesday night stop for me when I didn't feel like cooking. Conundrum is house red. Ends a lot of questions right there! read more

First the atmosphere here is 5 stars. A bit of swank and old school vibe. Nice. Service was pretty good. Came here for some vegan food and cocktails. The drinks were interesting and had a good time sampling a few different ones. We had the roasted cauliflower and this was amazing. I am not sure if the mash it was on was totally vegan, it was creamy with sun dried tomatoes in it. We also had the fallafel sandwich which was a total hit. Then we had the kale and cashew dish... and understand, I am not a kale fan. It was still okay, but I would not order it again, not fault of their's. I guess I was hoping they would make kale taste like something not kale. :) We will be back. Nice place to chill. read more

Friendly staff & yummy prohibition style cocktails. Its a cozy space with just the right amount of swankiness. With Louie Armstrong playing & the charming decor you feel like you've travelled back in time. A great spot to relax and have a quiet drink. read more

Love, Love, Loved this spot!!!! This little bar sits inside of the Dwell Hotel. Once inside it was a trendy but old time feel to it. We sat at the bar and Monica was our bartender. She was very informative on the different drinks they had on the menu. I had the Summer Sanctuary it taste like a spiked spritzer..... sooooo good and strong, but you couldn't really taste the liquor. One of those drinks that sneak up on you. The ice cube in the drink had a flower inside of it. The drink was very simple but pretty. I ordered some fries and potato chips, cause I wanted a lite bite while having a drink. The french fries came with a garlic aioli and ketchup. The garlic aioli was genius for dipping, I don't think I used the ketchup at all, the aioli was so good. The chips was good too nice kettle chip, very fresh and crispy. The atmosphere, the customer service, and the drinks will definitely keep me coming back. read more

Fun atmosphere, very cool looking bathrooms, exotic drinks. This place is a cool place to swing by and try out. However, it is pricey so you cannot get many drinks. I would be interested to try their food. read more

A lot of eclectic 60s swank going on here. Great location.oSt of the time the ambient noise level is conducive to comfortable conversation. Great attentive servers and good vibes. Finger foods are creative and ample read more

My husband and I really love this spot to stop in for a cocktail. It's special and a little nicer than other bars in area. They have interesting small plates as well, but haven't tried yet. Their cocktail menu has something for every palate and they are skillfully crafted and Instagram worthy presentation. The cocktails are a little pricey, but they are very unique and you can tell they use the best ingredients. Great service with relaxed atmosphere. Great spot for pre-dinner drinks for a special occasion. read more

I was in Chattanooga for a weekend getaway, and this spot really stood out! We went for cocktails, and I think my drink was in the top 3 cocktails of my life. The atmosphere was incredible!! Would def go back to Chattanooga for this spot alone! read more

Cool hidden bar with great ambiance and lovely cocktails. This is not a place where you will be trying to talk over a Vols game, ever.

The atmosphere of this place is beautiful and eclectic. Random couches and chairs strewn throughout the bar is very cozy and intimate feeling. If you have a large group I would pick somewhere else. The drinks are cute but really overpriced for the amount of alcohol in them. (The "ice bound fruit" took up over half of the drink) The service felt like we were bothering them by not making decisions fast enough and asking questions. Our server was abrupt and impatient and again acted like we were bothering her. The bar is cute with the star twinkling ceiling, but I won't be back. If I enter inside the Dwell Hotel again I will try Terra Mae because when we were over there originally the service was MUCH better. read more

Best burger I've had in Chattanooga TN. I stopped in for a drink on our long walk home having just left Taco Mamacita. I wasn't hungry at all but wanted to check this place out. I had heard of their Jasmine rice marinated overnight in coconut milk and wanted to taste this but they had taken off the menu I was told. So, I asked for what was a popular menu item? The Midnight Burger I was told. So I just said bring me one out please. From first bite it was phenomenal! I can't compare this to any other burger because it is seriously different. Don't miss this place if you get a chance. Very cool, trendy, retro vibe to the place. Service is great. Prices reasonable and so far as I can tell (since I only tried the burger) food is fantastic! read more

From start to finish a great spring jewel. I enjoyed the cocktail menu and felt like they offered something different than what you see everywhere else. They had a small but eclectic menu of small plate/ appitizer like food options. The staff was very polite and offered great insight into the menu. Great place to go and meet up with your party to have drinks and appitizers then move on to main course type of place. read more

Came here on a Saturday night before a show at the Tivoli. This is a small intimate place, so best for maximum 4 people in a group. I ordered the Tiptoe Through the Tulips from the bartender's recommendation which was good (maybe not quite $13 good). My friend got the zodiac which had little too much going on for her. We decided to split the barley stuffed pepper, crusted cauliflower, and crispy duck eggrolls. All of these were delicious, but I think the stuffed pepper was my favorite. If you are vegan or vegetarian, there are multiple options to chose from! I still want to come on a Monday sometime for their Snacky Hour deal. read more

I will definitely go back here.... soon! The atmosphere was casual/ classy. Great environment. Happy hour prices were very reasonable and they have the absolute best tasting burger ever! The wait staff was awesome. read more

I really enjoyed this small, quirky little bar. It's located inside the Dwell Hotel. The atmosphere and mood they create with lighting and décor is fantastic! It's very retro chic. The place is very small. You come to a sitting room first with a couch and a couple chairs. That room also has 2 small tables with a handful of chairs. Through this room you come to the bar area which has a few tables and chairs scattered around a bar that sits about 8-10 people. The tap list is very small, only 2-3 taps if I recall correctly, but they had Ballast Point Sculpin on tap so I was very happy. The bottle list is much larger. However, the bread and butter here are the cocktails. I got to try a sip of several different ones from people in my party and none of them disappointed. The cherry on top of all of this were both bartenders were extremely courteous and efficient despite a packed house. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a cocktail and I'll be back myself. read more

Girlfriend and I came here 3 times over a 4 day work trip. Great cocktails- chill atmosphere. Love the aesthetic and service here too.

Loved the vibes of this place. Bartender knew what she was doing when she suggested a drink for me. The garnishes in the drinks really made everything seem really special . 10/10 would recommend to a stranger read more

Good little bar for a quick drink and like something a little out of the norm. Atmosphere was fun and drinks were very unique.

Love this place. It is my new favorite place in Chattanooga. Super chic and eclectic. Special menu and cocktails are to die for. My favorite is the justice. Excellent cocktail! read more

Matilda Midnight - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Chattanooga, Tennessee

I decided to come and try them during happy hour. The ambiance was intoxicating and the lighting enchanting, perfect for a first date. Loved the modern decorations and the art pieces were hypnotic. I started with the happy hour special house blend white wine. The wine was served chilled but keep in mind that it was on the small size at about a 4 oz pour. It was quite refreshing and pretty well balanced truthfully for the price it was a good deal but FYI it is on the sweet side which is not my preference at all. The staff more specifically Monica was a delight to chat with, she was very much ready to serve you and provide you with a very elegant and happy expirence. I decided to order the rice cakes from the tappas menu. The coconut curry jasmine rice cakes were deliciously and elegant. Beautifully presented with a side of pickled cabbage slaw and aiole reduction. The cakes were delicious mild and balanced very well seasoned and when paired with the sides it was perfection and not to spicy just right. However, keep in mind that the place is more uoscalr than not and also very small so space is limited and if you wish for privacy then get here early. I had all of the above and my bill was only $12.00. You cannot beat this. read more

One of our fave spots in town, whether date night dining or taking friends around town. Regardless, the drinks are always on point, service attentive, and ambience seems to magically match whatever mood we are in, intimate party to larger gathering. Plus, the decor is exceptional. It's fun, funky and fabulous without any pretentiousness. Difficult balance, but they nailed it. And any place that serves breakfast all day is always aces in my book. read more

I stopped in for lunch the other day. The menu is a bit pricey for lunch but I wanted to check it out. I had the Cuban sandwich which was $12. it took a while for it to show up. More so considering I was the only one there. But, it was very good. One of the best Cuban sandwiches I've had. I'd think $10 would be the price point without a side. Still, I'll be back. The atmosphere was a posh, eclectic mix of modern and art deco (That's just my take, not necessarily what it is). I'll have to go back at night to see how it is. The drink menu looks interesting but, since I'm a no frills guy, I'll need to take a cocktail companion with me. Check it out! read more

Worst wine ever. No merlot option so 8 chose a pinot and my husband got a cab. We couldn't drink either one.

This is a beautiful space within the Dwell Hotel. The cocktails are great and reasonably priced. I had the justice and the divination. There were also several happy hour choices. Service was attentive, friendly, and helpful. read more

I love a good cocktail bar and in that regard I want a place like this to succeed in Chattanooga, but it's a bit of a stretch to justify more than a drink or two given the prices. I expect to pay $13 for a cocktail in NYC, SF, or even ATL, but that's steep in Chattanooga. I had the Mezcal cocktail on the menu and it just wasn't very balanced. The campari was overpowering and outshined the rest of the cocktail. My wife made a similar remark about her cocktail, but I can't remember which one she had. The service was a bit slow but the bartenders were very pleasant. The atmosphere is great and this would be a fun spot to go out with a small group, but a group beyond 4-5 people would be tough to accommodate. read more

Cmon, this is the spot. Time stands still here. Way back before Facebook ruined how people communicate. Great selection of prohibition era cocktails, a couple nice beers a small plates. Very perfectly smarmy bartenders. Wouldn't have it any other way. Amazing details and design of furnishings and surround accoutrements. Highly suggest unless you're more snobby than myself. read more

Close to the WORST customer service I've ever received. My hotel recommended this place for a cocktail. I go in, sit at the bar for about 5 minutes. NEVER ACKNOWLEDGED. I go to the restroom and come out. The girl behind the bar is still talking to a gentlemen about her upcoming 30th birthday.... still ZERO ACKNOWLEDGEMENT. 2 mins later another bartender comes in and says "something I can get for you?" I said "I'm just trying to order a drink" she screams at me "well, Darlin... that's what I'm trying to do" while throwing her hands up in the air... I walked out and went to the front desk. I asked to speak to someone. They asked me what the issue was. When I explained it the host at the desk began to laugh.... another young lady asked me if I would like to sit in the restaurant instead. NEVER AGAIN. DEPLORABLE CUSTOMER SERVICE! This was on the evening of Wednesday August 16, 2017 @8:45 PM I'll advise the Marriott that this isn't a place they should be recommending their guests to visit read more

fabulous and inventive cocktails and really wonderful late night snacks. One of my favorite post concert hangs!

Dana is the best bartender in Chattanooga. I came to visit Chattanooga and Matilda Midnight was recommended. We sat with Dana for more than an hour and I felt like a family member more then a patron. I could not wish for a better experience. Than you so much Dana. read more
