Working with local farmers and producers, they provide a wonderful variety of burgers and snacks. I love Benton's applewood smoked bacon, which appears all over the menu. They also have a great variety of bourbon and other whiskeys. While I am a devoted carnivore, they do offer vegetarian, gluten free, and chicken based patties. I can't speak to their quality, but if the rest of the menu is this good, I have faith they are also delicious. Great place for families, we always stop here when on vacation.
The restaurant is open and a little bit loud. It was hard to carry on a conversation without yelling.
The gluten free options were great. I had the ham eggs benedict with a gluten free english muffin and though the eggs were overcooked, it was still delicious. Highly recommend.
Grilled cashew cheese was really good, and so was the soup. Tons of gluten free and vegan options. Desserts are great, as are the smoothies. You order at the register, but they have menus at the front you can grab and look at before ordering. They also have an outside area, some of which is covered. Will definitely come back.
The gluten free pizza was really good. Everyone enjoyed their meal fully. The gluten free chocolate chip cookies are some of the best I've ever had. Thank you for an excellent lunch on our way to Gatlinburg for a family vacation.

Our favorite spot in Chattanooga! Whether you sit indoors or in the garden, it always feels like a little oasis. The food and cocktails are always amazing and the staff is wonderful. And there’s lots gluten free options!
Staff was very nice & accommodating to our gluten allergies & took extra effort to be sure our order was made safely & correctly! The strawberry lemonade was delicious too! Great job! Thanks MM🍕
I decided I wanted to spend a little extra time in Chattanooga before I headed home after a continuing ed opportunity. I wanted a coffee and a treat to take on a walk by the river. After a little googling, I settled on Sleepyhead. It was a good choice!
This little coffeeshop is inside the James Building. Truth be told, idk what else goes on inside the James Building, but the shop itself is on the left as you enter the front entrance. It's very small and there's only a couple of stools to sit on so it's mostly a grab and go operation, but wow is it adorable inside! I loved the welcoming, dreamy, upbeat vibes, as well as all the plants and the soft neon.
One interesting thing on the menu is a couple CBD-infused drinks. Talk about sleepyhead! ;) I'd not seen that before but the concept is intriguing!
Employees were super friendly and guided me in the direction of their sweeter current specialty lattes. They said one of the fruitier ones (raspberry? Strawberry? Can't remember) was the sweetest, but I don't like fruity coffee so I chose the pistachio latte instead. They made it for me quickly. I couldn't help but grab a donut and a sticker to commemorate my visit. All their food is vegan here and some of it is gluten free. I can't remember if my donut was GF or not, but I DO remember it being delicious. The icing on top wasn't gritty at all nor was it over sweet. The cake itself was a little bit dense but it kind of worked? I much prefer a cakey donut to an airy one so this was a winner for me! I can't remember if it was chai, Apple cider, or both, but it was definitely a spice cake and super yummy with my coffee.
The coffee was tasty and VERY strongly pistachio, which I for one was all about! I love the nutty, slightly sweet, vanilla-y flavor. In a perfect world I like my drinks a little sweeter, but as I said, it's partly on me because the employees did tell me. Still, I enjoyed it very thoroughly and would definitely return.
I'll enjoy my sweet sleepyhead cat sticker and think back on this visit fondly!
Outstanding flavors! Family style eating with plenty of small, medium, and large plate options🤩. 100% gluten free and I promise you wouldn't know it but so wonderful for those who can't gluten 😍
We knew we wanted pizza at our wedding, and after lots of searching and price comparing, we found the dream team in Chelsea and Alyssa at Downtown Mellow Mushroom! From the very beginning, they were amazing—offering us a tasting (with friends included!) and being super flexible with menu tweaks.
On the big day, they totally came through in a few key moments, and you could really tell they cared. They took pride in their work and genuinely wanted everything to go perfectly for us when it came to the food. Plus, Mellow Mushroom is just plain delicious, and they were awesome about accommodating our vegan and gluten free guests too.
A dual birthday celebration led is too the Acropolis Grill.
The food was delicious, Lucy our server was wonderful, and we had the opportunity to sit outside and enjoy beautiful weather.
I had the Gyro Dinner with a Greek salad. The meat was tender and perfectly cooked, the pita bread was good, and the rice was well
prepared.
One of our party was provided a vegetarian menu, and they also provided a gluten free menu.
We'll definitely be going back here!
If you're in Chattanooga, I highly recommend this restaurant! From the Caesar salad, deviled eggs with candied bacon, roasted beets and goat cheese to the Shrimp and Grits, and their Hibiscus Mule(house ginger beer). Everything from Service to food was Excellent. Ended the meal with their Praline Caramel Carrot Cake. Very Good! They also have a Good gluten free selection.
Gluten free and dairy free experience here was great. Me and my husband both had burgers and had no problem. They have gluten free buns and gluten free beer on tap. The potato wedges are not gluten free but our waitress was very knowledgeable and let me know they were not gluten free.
Been a regular customer for many years. Food is always hot and fresh. Portions are large and reasonably priced. Staff is wonderful and always able to accommodate my gluten free and other dietary concerns. Always enjoyable! My favorite place to eat!
Sat at bar. Didn't order alcohol drinks, but wanted to eat male bartender was helpful with gluten free and vegetarian options but wasn't pleased we weren't drinking, lol. Had the potato chip nachos: Fab. And the ceviche sampler. Split with a friend it was perfect.
This place is amazing in many ways. The aesthetic is on point, there’s plenty of choices for us vegan and gluten-free folks and the food is delicious. BUT everything is served in disposables. Plastic utensils, plastic food containers (even for in house eating), paper cups… They don’t even use recyclable plastic and have no bins for anything that is recyclable. It’s such a disconnect for a company that seems so conscious socially and health wise. When we engaged in a conversation with the staff about it it was clear that they simply don’t care about the environmental impact this choice has. It’s so sad because I will not be back because of it. So if you’re environmentally conscious stay away from this place!!!
Brought my daughter here for lunch. They do great with ensuring a gluten-free meal for my daughter. Service was pretty quick from when we placed our order to when we received our food. Nice relaxing environment. It wasn't overly crowded when we visited, so that was enjoyable. Overall a good experience!
