Chattanooga is my hometown, and it’s grown up a lot in the last several years. These are the spots I visit most frequently - the ones that have that perfect combination of atmosphere and quality food/coffee. Hope you enjoy!🤗

The atmosphere is beautiful, good seasonal lattes. My favorite is the rose cardamom.
Sleepyhead Coffee
This one is brand new! (As of Feb 2026.) It had a lovely, elevated atmosphere, a beautiful patio area, and an extensive drink menu. The food is delicious too!
Iris Rooftop | The Waymark | Chattanooga, TN
Another new spot that’s quickly becoming a local favorite. If you like a cozy vibe, and options for working solo or a group hang, this is the place.
The Reading Room
Delicious healthy food, juices, and desserts with vegan, gluten free options. My fav is the matcha pronut (protein doughnut).
Southern Squeeze - North Chattanooga
Peaceful beautiful space with the best coffee in Chatt.
Burlaep Print and Press
This place is always packed. Amazing bread and pastries.
Niedlov's Cafe & Bakery
This is a cool spot, speakeasy-style, and is known for having the best cocktails in the city, designed by a professional mixologist. The bar has themed months a couple times during the year where they decorate fully for the season and create special ...
Unknown Caller
Really popular brunch spot that also has gelato and (good!) coffee. It’s cute too. :)
Milk & Honey
Mad Priest is such a vibe and very popular. They recently opened a new location and the detail they’ve put into the design and theme is really impressive. Good flavored lattes and good people.
