    The service is kinda slow but the food is good and somewhat edible. Be a lot nicer if they served alcohol

    Definitely a great place to stop for breakfast. Heading back to Knoxville, I decided to enjoy some…read morecakes before hitting the road. Service was excellent, my order was taken quick and my meal delivered even quicker. The cakes here are sweet, delicious and bigger than your face. I added Strawberries sans whipped cream and a side of bacon for some fatty protein. This is prolly the largest diner I have ever been to. Seating is plentiful, the decor is cute and not too disruptive, and the breakfast bar has a telly. There is even a pink Caddy that serves as a table for that unique dining experience. I didn't have time to stop and shop but The Sunlight does have a gift shop tucked in the corner. I will definitely come back when I next visit. The hospitality of the staff here is off the charts!

    This Diner gets all the stars! Not only was the food great, but the vibe was perfect and the…read morewaitress was great! When we first arrived the hostess asked us if we would like to dine in one of the cars. Of course we said yes. We had to wait about twenty minutes to be seated but we knew our little guy would love it! Once seated we ordered and our food arrived a short time later. I had the classic hamburger, my daughter had the BLT, my little guy had pancakes and sausage and my husband also had the burger! The prices were very reasonable! We loved the 50s theme and 50s playlist! I would have loved to also sit at the counter and enjoy the milkshake. Maybe next time.

    This diner is a blast from the past, right down to the benches and the tables, every table has a…read morecoat and hat rack attached to it. A reminder of the days when men and women dressed with class and wore hats and coats to dinner.. Mills has this inherent 50s vibe, but the menu is quite up-to-date and everything is delicious. You can't go wrong with the burgers, I'm just telling you they've got something for everyone's taste. Even the sides don't disappoint, and the milkshakes are enough for two people, at least it was enough for the two of us. My engine rings were fantastic, breaded to perfection, and plenty of them came with my meal. Our waitress was tremendous also, quick drink refills, brought our food, hot, and prepared to give helpful and delicious recommendations from the menu. They do sell their merchandise at the checkout, but what do you expect, this is pigeon Forge for goodness sake! Everyone is Hawking their stuff . We are definitely planning on coming back and trying something different. Their menu is diverse and I think that we could come back for years and never have the same thing twice.

    First time here, overall decent place. It's a good 1950s diner, typical of what you see normally…read more It was a happening place, all seats were filled, there was probably 60 guests there. The staff was running back and fourth, overall the wait time was not and at all. I had a chili, cheese, mushroom, back, burger, onion rings, and a root beer float. The service was decent, the food was ok, not greatest but not the best I've had either. I wouldn't mind returning and trying something else next time.

    We visited Aretha Frankenstein's for the first time after a particularly challenging morning. Our…read morewaitress Kimberly was especially attentive and able to spend a couple of moments holding space as we revealed some current medical stuff ( sometimes life is heavy and it's nice when strangers can offer kindness and empathy) My sibling was delighted with the decor. Good biscuits and gravy are something I can not really access on the west coast so that was fun. I was very tempted by the waffles but that will have to wait for a future business.

    We had to try Aretha Frankenstein's while we were in Chattanooga because I kept hearing about the…read morepancakes, and now I completely understand the hype. My husband is the breakfast person in our marriage, so this was absolutely his kind of place. We ordered the famous pancakes with their Blue Mélange blueberry butter, along with scrambled eggs, bacon, potatoes, and a biscuit. First of all, these pancakes are THICK. Not "slightly fluffy" thick. These things have some HEIGHT to them. But somehow they were still soft and fluffy inside instead of being heavy or dry. The blueberry butter on top was such a good touch too. Sweet, creamy, a little fruity, and completely different from just throwing regular butter and syrup on a pancake. The rest of the breakfast was classic and hearty. The scrambled eggs were good, the bacon was crispy, and the biscuit was huge. This is definitely one of those places where you should come hungry because the portions are not playing with you. I also loved the personality of the restaurant. It doesn't feel polished or cookie-cutter at all. It has this funky, quirky, old-school Chattanooga character that makes eating there feel like part of the trip instead of just another breakfast stop. And coming from someone who is NOT usually running toward pancakes or breakfast food, I still had to keep reaching over to my husband's plate. The pancakes were easily the standout for me. Definitely worth trying at least once while you're in Chattanooga, especially if you're a breakfast person. Come hungry, order the pancakes, and DO NOT skip that blueberry butter.
