Plenty of seating and places to stand near tables for your belongings. It was a pretty young crowd which was fine since I really don't look my age anyways. Hahaha.

Maybe "pet tolerant", but not "friendly": - hostess was visibly & audibly afraid of dogs. We have two sweet chocolate labs, not exactly menacing creatures. Why in the world would you send a dog-fearing employee to get us seated? - we expected an offer of a water bowl for our pups. Nope. Had to find a server and ask for one. - the outdoor area we sat at is enclosed & gated. A door separates this outdoor area from the inside dining room. In spite of this, 10 minutes after being seated, a separate employee came out and simply said "do yall have leashes?" 1- of course we do, you saw us walk them in. 2- no greeting or "hey, I'm blah blah"... cold & impersonal. 3- why bother with the cost of a gated enclosure if pets have to be leashed anyway? We've been to many pet-friendly restaurants. You are NOT pet-friendly. You happily took our money for the meal, and added a 20% gratuity yourselves (which was not earned btw), but you barely did enough to accommodate our pups, let alone be considered "friendly". We didn't feel they were welcome, and certainly no "friendly" environment experienced. We won't be back. See how Calhouns defines "pet friendly". Y'all might learn something. To diners with pups: You want "pet friendly"? Skip this place.

Great spot! Wow!…read more While passing through Knoxville, we stumbled upon the Preservation Pub. We had seen a band was playing, so we figured we would drop in and check it out. Not a bad spot on a Tuesday night! Band was lively, and the crowd was friendly. Didn't realize at first that there were three(+) levels, so finding the arcade on the second floor (as well as another bar) and the roof patio (with yet another bar) made this place super fun. Lots of different settings depending on what you are looking for. The rooftop was great though - giving a view of the city, as well as a lot of interesting built in art. Also loved the artistic (signed decorated) washrooms - that was a hilarious and unexpected touch! If I lived in Knoxville, this would definitely be one of my go-to spots!

Our waitress let us sit in the window seat for some peace and it had a great romantic atmosphere there. We started out at the bar and had drinks and an appetizer then moved to the table after the wait. We had the herb and cheese bread appetizer, state street fancy burger, creamy wood smoked tomato linguine with chicken and a cherry bomb pizza to split. Everything was perfect. My burger was cooked exactly to my liking and the chicken was tender in the pasta dish. The pizza is very flavorful but not overly greasy and "heavy." We also split a fantastic, fresh and monstrous wedge salad as we were trying to sample a little of everything. All this combined with a great value in price compared to the quality of food. We can't wait to go back.

Okay, this is my first time this restaurant/bar/club. I got there around 9:30 PM on Saturday night…read moreand sat outside for quite a while with some biker friends of mine. I must say for a nightclub it is impressive for Chattanooga. They have to areas outdoors on the left-hand side with a fire pit and seating and a few tables. You can also sit outside on the right-hand side but no fire pit. This review is based on me just touring the place over a few hours and mostly sitting outside watching people come in. They do serve beer and mixed drinks and they also serve food, which I did not partake. Oh yea, draft beer (+1). I also had the chance to chat with Randy, the manager, and I appreciate his openness. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and you could tell he was on top of everything there. Great people person. When you arrive, women can expect to get "wanded" and their purses checked and the men will also be frisked, I assume for weapons. As with most of these types of nightclubs, it seems to get busy around 10 o'clock at night and I was told that many nights they reach capacity by 11 o'clock and there is a line to get in, sometimes around the block so may want to get there early. As people leave, they allow others to enter, because I think they have a maximum occupancy of about 800. Security seems to be pretty tight which I can understand due to the clientele being younger for the most part have a lot of alcohol flowing. I had the chance to meet and talk to some of the security personnel and they were outgoing and friendly, but rest assured, they are there to ensure everyone has a good time and no one is bothered and if you were to get out of hand, it is obvious they know what to do. The club is three levels with the bottom level still being developed and it has pool tables, dartboards and when finished in a couple of weeks will be quite a neat hangout. The middle level (entrance) has lots of tables and bars and appears to be more of a live band (country) and maybe a little older crowd. This seems to be the better place to eat. Again, it was somewhere I would hang out. The upper level is probably a "younger" crowd and it is the loud dance music (I use the term music lightly) where it has a constant beat so dancers and bounce up and down . Music s somewhat crude at times and there is a lot of bumping and grinding going on. You can hardly move up there when it is crowded and It seem to be very crowded early on this level . Also, I was told it can get hot (temperature wise). Word of caution, especially to the younger crowd, be sure you don't drink and drive because first of all not a safe or smart thing to do but secondly, there are police cars just sitting there watching the place. I left on my motorcycle around 1 AM and saw three just sitting there. I am not a night owl and too old for the 3 AM checkout. I no longer get home when people are getting up. For what it is, it is a pretty neat place for Chattanooga and you would think you were downtown NYC or Atlanta. I give it a 5 and it has something for everyone. If I got something wrong here, just drop me a note.
