The expected from recommendations: Fun, Funky and eclectic little very little restaurant (only 7…read moretables)-in a residential area north side of Chattanooga. No parking, find street parking. Put yourself on the waitlist, no reservation. Up to 1 hour wait on weekends. Menu is classic American breakfast style The not so good: the chef was not in the mood... The house pancakes are huge and fluffy corn bread style - while I was not expecting this style at all, I enjoyed the texture and flavor. Just be aware if u order for kids. That dish could have been amazing unfortunately we could only enjoy 1 as the other was burnt and hidden on the bottom of the stack. The spicy grits were clumpy and completely bland. The super dave dish was flavorless scrambled eggs with garnish on top. The biscuits were cold and dry. This local eatery could have been a 5 but the food ruined the whole experience especially after waiting 1 hour for the table and another 30 min for the food. Disappointed...

Housed in an old converted gas station, this spot features breakfast, brunch and lunch as it closes…read moremid-afternoon. While you can order the typical breakfast fare, my recommendation is you take full advantage of the creative offerings, that which makes this a popular spot for the locals. While there is more eating space than you realize, it is easy to assume the restaurant is too crowded, based upon the limited parking area. Don't make that mistake. The service is expedited by placing your order at the counter and the staff delivers it to your table as soon as it is ready. I had their breakfast sandwich with lox and my daughter their breakfast nachos, both were absolutely delicious! My only complaint was my vanilla latte was a little too sweet, something that is very correctable. It's a cute spot, with dining space both inside and out. It's well worth the visit and if you're too late, hit the burger bar next door.

The Daily Ration was exactly the kind of brunch spot I love discovering while traveling…read more The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, with a neighborhood feel that makes you want to linger over coffee a little longer. There is outdoor seating for dogs, though it's not heated, so keep that in mind if you're visiting during colder weather. We were able to sit indoors with me tucked comfortably in my carrier, which made this a perfect stop on a chilly Chattanooga morning. The ordering process is a little different from a traditional restaurant. You order at the counter, grab a seat, and the staff brings everything out when it's ready. It feels more relaxed and efficient than a full-service brunch spot. The food was excellent, but the real stars were the coffee and biscuits. My humans were very happy with both, and I spent most of the meal supervising from my carrier and making sure nobody dropped any crumbs. While there isn't a dog menu, the atmosphere was welcoming and comfortable, and I never felt out of place. Dogba's verdict: Great coffee, excellent biscuits, carrier-friendly indoor seating, and the perfect place to start a day of Chattanooga adventure.

The berry pancakes were so good, and the cinnamon biscuits were even better! Everything tasted incredibly fresh.

Our server's name was Taylor and her quality of service was extraordinary. She was courteous, friendly and had impeccable attention to detail, I appreciated the way she took care of my family. What I really loved was how she checked on us discretely. I never had to ask for a refill, she saw my glass was low and brought a replacement. As I saw her moving through the dining room, her smile was constant. First Watch is fortunate to have a team member of this caliber. Oh, the food was excellent as per usual.
