Brunch!

Ed Lambert

Absolutely the best gluten free vegan food ever! I have multiple food allergies and was thrilled to find this restaurant.

Nikki J

Amazing food, mind staff, great options for a variety of diets! (Including gluten free!) special shoutout to the desserts!

Manuel Ramos

I wanted to get up & play the Banjo,,, & I don't even know how to play. The food is sooooo delicious & the pastries are amazing 👏. Gluten free options galore. Wish this place was closer to home.

Alison Claybon

The vegan gluten-free pizza was fantastic! The location in Chattanooga is questionable. We didn't want to stay and eat with bikes on the back of the vehicle, so we ordered to go. Some of the best pizza I have had.

Apparently on Saturdays from 3 to 4 they don't actually serve food. They have a "snacky hour" where you can order alcohol and three snack items. We went out of our way to come here because they were entirely gluten free, even calling ahead, only to be met with, after they started putting a table together, "oh yeah, you can't eat any food here for an hour."

The Girls Next Door

Delicious smoothies and baked goods, especially if you are gluten free! The best in Chatt!!

Kristin Long

This is one of our favorite local spots! The atmosphere, service, and cocktail options are second to none! Kat was the best server and the fact that the menu can be made gluten free is a HUGE plus! Get the pimento cheese, you won’t regret it!

I ordered soy latte and the gluten-free vegan meat burrito. The food was exceptional and yummy. Highly recommend!

Boone Riddle

Katie was fantastic! We love being able to eat safely gluten-free dairy-free here, with delicious food and great vibes!

Wonderful place; original art, DELICIOUS coffee and coffee drink or tea, baked goods, some gluten free, super staff. So refreshing a little piece with of heaven on earth- they just need some acoustic classical music occasionally and it would be the coffee house of m dreams!

Gluten free muffin

Mike Calhoun

Outstanding food and wonderful service. Very gluten-free friendly for our Celiac family. Portions were generous for the price. Very convenient to Rock City and Ruby Falls. Highly recommend!

jmoss2543

Food is always good at First watch. Good gluten free options as well.

Adrianna Kohutek

Great view and great food! We asked for a gluten free menu because my daughter has Celiac Disease. The server asked if the gluten free menu was a preference or Celiac which I thought was a true tell that their wait staff are knowledgeable with CD! We got shrimp and oyster appetizers, my daughter had three veggie plates and I had blackened steak salad.

Lisa Kellman

Very clean!! Great Gluten-free menu. They seem to take gluten allergy seriously thank god. We go every time in town.

Jack Phillips

I loved this cozy place to eat and enjoy time with those in life. The decor provides a relaxing environment to eat delicious crepes loaded with sweet or savory fillings; and yes, even both can be enjoyed side by side. They offer so much more, sandwiches, potatoes, salad. My omelette was large and so tasty: filled with fresh veggies. I just wanted more of those delicious potatoes. I can’t forget the gluten free crepe batter.

Riversana Williamson

I loved that they have gluten free options, and asked whether my choice was allergy or preference. That makes a huge difference when a restaurant acknowledges the difference. Love their food. First time at this location, just as good as the Gunbarrel & North Shore locations.

Kris Lucey

Lots of gluten free options! Food was delicious! The food was amazing! Even though it was Father's Day and a little on the busy side there was little to no wait! We'll be back!

Jayne Balash-Tran

Great coffee shop with indoor and outdoor seating. I'm Celiac so I didn't try any of the baked goods, but the seasonal drinks were delicious!

I will start this off by saying I know Honey Seed is not the place to eat if you’re gluten free, but most times in life it’s about what the majority wants, even if your options are limited. Decided to try the gluten free pizza on our visit yesterday. I chose the breakfast pizza which included hashbrowns as a topping. The server mentioned how the tater tots are like a hush puppy, which clued me in to them having gluten. But I assumed if the hashbrowns had gluten, the server would’ve let me know so we could take it off the pizza. When the pizza came out I could tell there was gluten on it so they happily brought out another one no problem. I was hangry at that point & the pizza looked fine so I ate a few slices & went on about my day. Now that I’m looking at these leftovers, I can tell there’s hashbrowns on them, which makes me think they just picked off the hashbrown pieces instead of making a new pizza. I am disappointed at this discovery! This is a lesson to all- don’t take your gluten free loved ones here. There’s not enough choices nor knowledge from staff

Toby Saunders

They have a great breakfast sandwich. Their donuts are more, in my opinion, circle-shaped cakes than true donuts, but they are nice cakes. Edit: after googling it, I see that some donuts are indeed baked, so hey, they're donuts! And they're tasty. I'm not a gluten-free fan generally, but these gluten-free donuts are delicious.

Lauren Elizabeth

Pizza!

angela teal

We ALWAYS stop at Sluggo's when we're in Chattanooga. I've tried everything on the menu over the last 2 years, and there's nothing that isn't phenomenal. Gluten Free options!!

Courtney Barton

This place was amazing!! The waitstaff was super knowledgeable about their gluten free options and took all the precautions. The chef made the bisque from scratch since the one on the menu actually has gluten in it and it was the BEST!! He also made the gator bites with corn meal instead of the regular breading so I would be able to eat it (this was also so so good)! Will definitely go back there again!

Robert Rahl

My wife and I enjoyed this quite a bit. The only unfortunate thing was that the GF French Toast wasn't safe for celiac but it was safe for those who simply like to eat GF.

Lauren Mitchell

Jaqi is the sweetest waitress! Great food and service, 95% of menu is gluten free for my fellow celiacs!

Turtle jones

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.

Kat Kliebert

Sadly the Cornmeal has changed and has flour now and is no longer gluten free, so no more fried okra or catfish. We always came here for that. At least the nachos are still ok to have. Fish wise I was told the trout almondine won't be done without the breading, the salmon has soy, and the catfish can't be done without breading even though it is breaded as it's made I guess the fish quality not good when grilled or is too small. Unsure. I've had grilled catfish at other places just fine. Maybe one day they'll bring back to good cornmeal. :/ Such a sad day.

Today my husband and I went in to eat lunch there for the first time. I ordered the cut pork with collard greens ,grits and a side of gluten free toast. As I was eating the pork, I noticed I was chewing on something other than meat. There was plastic in my pork. I told the waitress and she offered to bring me the same dish. I told her no thank you. She went to talk to the manager and took it off of our bill. She comes back to tell me that how it packaged and prepared, plastic got in my food and someone dropped the ball. The manager, John was aware of the situation and never came to address it. He did not come to our table to apologize for the plastic which I have ingested. However, I called back and spoke with John to ask what was he planning to do in this situation and he told me that he should have came to take to me but he was at the bar and didn’t.He then offered an appetizer for my next visit.I’m sorry but it isn’t acceptable.

The food here is amazing! I particularly love their breakfast. Gluten-free options are available, too. My order was to go, and the hostess was so friendly and welcoming

Josie Woodruff

I am so grateful for Oaks!!! This is one place that takes allergies seriously, and I know there is always something gluten and dairy free that I can trust. Can’t rave enough about their food options, service, and atmosphere 🥳

Ann Yearout

Great food and great service! Gluten-free menu available. I recommend the Atlantic Salmon!

CJ Fannon

I have celiacs disease, it's hard for me to go out. Drakes is an exception. Not only does it have a wide variety of different styles of food, but it seems like they take allergies/intolerances serious. Riley was our waiter and was empathetic, patient, and fast! He took my intolerance serious and made sure that the items ordered (including my alcoholic drink) were gluten free. I also love that the menu is labeled gluten free. Thanks for the wonderful experience!

Jaiden B.

Our server was very nice and mindful of my gluten and dairy allergies. The cafe was very cute and clean! The food was delicious!

M&S

First visit, delicious chicken pesto crème pasta w/gluten free noodles. Pizzas were decent, service was great. Atmosphere was a bit cold, but may have been a fluke because there were not many people in the restaurant side of the building. But sounds like the Monday night trivia was fun there was a small crowd in the lounge/bar area. I’d go back.

Jennifer DiMaria

We have eaten here a few times and we love it! I have a gluten allergy and they took great care of me. Fun Walking Dead art work and merchandise.

Logan Russell

Had a fantastic dinner on a Friday night. Had reservations at 7:15 and we're seated immediately. I have a gluten allergy and our server Rachel was extremely helpful and attentive to my order. We had the chef's board, bread and pita on the side, some oysters, and the porterhouse for two, a special that night. It was all incredible and reasonably priced. Fantastic drinks, wine, and company made it a great night.

Larry Conway

Wonderful meal and experience. Now many gluten free options but they will adapt items to work for you.

Gabriel O’Reilly

Great food options from gluten free, vegan, and one more I forgot 😅. The food is amazing no matter what you get. They push the limits of what makes a taco a "taco". The atmosphere is great with background music, murals, and sculptures. Also very eco-friendly. I got the Becky, and despite the odd look, it was amazing.

James Randall

The food is always consistently good! If you like Steak the Princess Kew Steak is always delicious. I eat G.Free mostly, so that is what I ordered. It probably has soy sauce in it so there is some amount of gluten. It wasn't enough to bother me, but I'm only Gluten Sensitive, not a Celiac. The Pork Fried Rice was quite good too! It has a lot of good sized pieces of tasty pork in it, not those little half inch sized cubes that a lot of places serve. I've eaten here since before I moved to the Hixson area numerous times and I highly recommend you try this place. Most people will be hooked artery one visit. The prices are reasonable and what I had tonight was definitely much better than the last time I ate at PF Chang's! For much less money at that.

Caitlin Todd

Food is delicious and the atmosphere is great! They had the outer wall open since the weather was nice, giving it an open air feel. They also accommodated gluten free needs which was greatly appreciated!

This was the best introduction to Chattanooga I could have asked for! I was celebrating an anniversary, and was thoroughly impressed. I manage a restaurant back home too, so I’m not easily impressed. We just had starters, but still food was phenomenal. We loved the selection of gluten free starters! The ambiance of this place has me blown away as well. Beautiful atmosphere, and very accommodating for families, and pets. Our server Micah was perfect. We could see he had many other tables and he still was as attentive as if we were his only one. His service was top notch. When we come back we will be asking for Micah, and enjoying more ceviche!

Jack Phillips

I loved sitting in the covered patio. The good was good but the service made sure my food was vegan and gluten-free.

Susan L.

Yay for finding a breakfast restaurant in Chattanooga that I can eat at! 🎉 Plenty of options to satisfy my no sugar, gluten-free request! And it was met with friendliness and helpful suggestions instead of treating me like a nuisance as so many places do. We will be back! 💖

Greta Street

Our party has several food allergies, and our server went above and beyond to make sure food was safe for everyone! Gluten Free Dairy free Soy free Egg free

Becky Samaduroff

They have a vegan and gluten-free menu. Sometimes, the chips are cooked in the morning, and if that is the case, they will be gluten-free as well. The atmosphere is nice and very clean. My husband and I love this place.

Tina Walbrown

UPDATE: We went back in a group of 13 food and service was excellent. Brandon waited in us and was very polite as well as attentive. Everyone enjoyed their selves and also look forward to going back. //First review:Went there for lunch for the first time and liked it so much we went back for dinner. Our servers were Kailey and Ryann which were great and very informative. We were visiting on our anniversary and ate hear because they had Mahi one of my husband's favorites. Food was great, reasonable priced, wide variety, and drinks were great. Nice atmosphere as well. Great Gluten free menu as well.

First of all, I would like to thank all the staff of Whitebird for the magical night for dinner. This restaurant is on the first floor of the Edwin Hotel right next to the Walnut Street bridge, Hunter Museum, and all the romantic spots in the art district. With this type of setting, you know the night will be magical. Extra points for whoever came up with the idea to out see through igloo"s just outside the restaurant patio next to the bridges. Yes, you are reading that correctly. You can spend a romantic dinner in a see-through igloo with white lights and all the night sky in an intimate, darker setting. You only find two of these, so i would book in advance for this special venue. My date and I absolutely loved the decor, atmosphere, staff, and the food. I have a gluten allergy to Wheat, and all the staff went out of their way to make sure my night was perfect with no cross-contamination. The owner, manager, and all the staff were top-notch for a true white glove fine dining should be. Now to the food. I ordered the salad, thinking it would be on the smaller side. Nope, it was a large portion and amazing flavor with ingredients not used much in salads you would find at a restaurant. This was a real chef cooked/ prepared to order. Next, we had the grilled chicken mini sliders with a sauce that was delicious to dip into. I'm not sure what it was, but wow, it made the flavors come out more. I also got the garlic mashed potatoes. This was definitely my favorite with just the right amount of ingredients and fresh potatoes, not instant garage, like some restaurants try to pass as mashed potatoes. Nope, nothing but the best and finest quality of food, cooked to order Cordon Bleu chef. They had a gluten free buns, so I got a grilled chicken sandwich that was delicious. The evening was nothing less but magical with the sunset going down the stung lights in the igloo. Dinner was just perfect and a nice walk on the bridges to in the evening. I would highly recommend this restaurant and experience for your next romantic dinner date. Don't take my word for it make. Go see for yourself the magic that awaits. Would I recommend this restaurant? Absolutely Would I return? Absolutely
