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:)

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.

Their menu has been scaled way back from previous yelpers' experiences…read more We had multiple pizzas, a beer, and wings with Nashville hot sauce. The regular pizzas are ok.

Welcoming environment with game boards to play or even some darts or shuffle board in the back area. Staff was nice and patient with questions and guidance. Beer was good and fun to choose flights. The food was delicious, comes from a food truck in the back. I highly recommend the curry tacos and any of there battered crisp crunch fries with the toppings that come with them. A must try spot.

We are blessed with some very good microbreweries here in Chattanooga. Oddstory is clearly one of…read morethose at the top of the list. One of the important things to realize is, the family has two locations, the "Mothership" on Central and their original storefront here on MLK, The Greenhouse. They are two separate operations, each with their own unique attributes, some unique beer options, and particularly when it comes to food where both locations, do a bit of their own thing, looking to one-up their sister operation and the winner is, we the customer. The Greenhouse is a smaller, more intimate location, it's adults only, operates on fewer days, with a typical 4:00pm opening time. The staff, is great, the food is wonderful and the beer, is top notch, and always rotating new beer offerings. Oddstory is the only brewery in town, where I am willing to sample a sour, they are, that good.

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. So if you went early on and wasn't impressed I'd say go back now that they have their flow! My favs are the fish taco and falafel. 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.

Outdoors is plenty of space for children to run around and a big screen that shows movies on certain nights and tv/sports on other nights. The menu is all about tacos and it's a fusion so they have very interesting combinations. For my first visit I tried the bulgogi kimchi taco and the tikka masala chicken taco and both were very interesting yet good. It was hard for my brain and body to connect that this was the flavor inside of a taco. Beautiful combinations made! I got it to go so I will make sure that I come back and enjoy one of their movie nights with the family.

Excellent craft beers, and service, and the food was hot and made very well. They also have smaller beer and whiskey servings to try different ones which interest you! The owner, Chris even came over to us the second day, and asked how our trip was, and thanked us for coming back! This is a typical tap room/bar in an old office building, was clean and comfortable. The closest parking (as most parking in and near downtown Chattanooga) is pay by phone, however, they will validate your parking. How much you spend will vary if you are drinking and/or eating. Overall, a very relaxed enjoyable place to go!

Coming from Maui, there are not a lot of good burger places. Really only one stand out - Burger…read moreBoys waygu burger truck. So on my first mainland trip in a couple years, I have been trying different burger shops. Jack Brown's had really high reviews, had a super fun vibe, and a really creative menu, which I love. Service was on point. Let's get the elephant out of the room right now - the size. lol I was prepared for a small burger from all the reviews, but, Shake Shack has a small burger, Jack-in-the-Box has a small burger. It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight and the dog. But I ain't gonna lie, that is one tiny burger! It's like...five bites? One for each corner, and then the middle. lol They might be better off coring the middle, and marketing them as hamburger donuts. The easy fix is just order an extra patty for a few bucks more. Same as Shake Shack. The other thing I have a problem with is the, "we don't do lettuce or tomato..." line. Sorry, that's like a pizza with no toppings. Really, it just sounds like they found a way to reduce overhead by not having to prep and pay for vegetables. But whatever... if great burgers can be made without lettuce and tomato, and without a big patty...let's get it on. I'm sorry, but that patty was charbroiled to the point of no juice. This is where a tomato might help with moisture. lol I don't see how this is actually Wagyu. A Wagyu burger should be melting in my mouth. I don't know what happened, but it reminded me of my first job at Burger King, running whoppers through the flame broil conveyor belt. If you got one that just came out, you scored big time. But if you got one that just sat in the warmer for 10 minutes, you got a dry burger. It was a very disappointing burger. Then again, I just had a Shake Shack burger yesterday, and it was nomnom greasy goodness. Of course I was going to be disappointed. It's like Ozzy Osbourne following up Slipknot as the opening act. The fries were great. They came in a huge basket, and the price was very reasonable.

There is plenty of seating, a small bar, and a couple of TVs. While there are a number of taps, there didn't seem to be much on tap. At least not during my visit.

I wasn't expecting much but was impressed with everything we ordered. We started with nachos which were good but the flatbread pizza and the cheesesteak we had for our mains were excellent. I would definitely go back for the food alone. IG: danny_fuelstherun

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.

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.
