Mad Priest is unlike any coffee shop I've ever been into. They're definitely committed to thematic…read morecontinuity, from the bathrooms to the candles there is no shortage of decor that aligns with their name. Coffee is solid here; I got a latte that lasted me through my whole road trip because it was so strong! I loved the hanging plants and ambience, and the service was friendly.

I absolutely adored this place…read more Drinks - I had the chance to try two different drinks on this visit. The first was an iced matcha with a little added blackberry. It was really smooth and a very nice quality. The second drink was an iced latte from their specialty menu that had been renamed for a special event I was attending. I loved the flavor of the coffee, so much so that I grabbed some of their beans to take home as well. Merch - There was a great selection of merch from the company and local artisans as well. The stickers and mucus has some really cool designs. Staff - the baristas were some of the nicest people. Not only were they slinging drinks and working the event, but they were just amazingly personable and kind to all of our group. Location - most importantly though was the stunning location. The furniture, decor, vibe and even the commitment to theme through the bathrooms was everything. Even the confessionals booth was just perfect. Overall it is definitely a visit, and I will be back.

This is the type of flavor I want when drinking a latte!!! Both my husband and I ordered a vanilla…read morelatte and it was perfect. So much coffee flavor with a hint of vanilla. I'm not a fan of milky or overly sweet lattes. Also ordered the blueberry muffin, which my 1 year old son devoured. Person taking orders was nice and helpful. The overall ambiance of this place seemed calm and like a chill spot to hang out on a Sunday afternoon. Definitely will be back when we are in the area! - small parking lot - paid street parking - clean bathrooms - plenty of indoor and outdoor seating - games, books, etc

My daughter and I spent the weekend here scouting for a place for her to live. We consider…read moreourselves to be well-educated in the coffee scene, and we have been all over the country, always seeking out cool beans and cool cafes in our travels. In short - this ain't the place. If it were possible to give ZERO stars I would have done that..... Asked for a half sweet vanilla cortado (my universal measuring gauge), and the total snob barista said "we don't do that....we put vanilla in lattes, but not cortados". I literally had eyes on the bottle of vanilla syrup over her left shoulder in the fridge, and she straight up refused to put it in my drink. My daughter asked "why is that", to which she rambled on about "ethical treatment of traditional presentation". Let's pause right here and ask.....what in the actual hell? And to top if off, she also refused to put honey (the choice I as the customer had to settle for) in my drink, instead serving a very watered-down version of what maybe was at one time honey on the side. And the "hot" drink? Luke warm at best. Traditional? Whatever. How about traditional customer service and friendliness? There are waaaay too many other cool coffee cafes in Nooga, serving waaay better coffee, to waste your time and your money investing in the "we don't compromise our values for what you want" mindset at Velo. Not a weird vibe - a cult vibe. Well, we ain't members, so we will definitely not return. We immediately left for Burlaep Coffee Roasters, and they saved the day. Go there instead. Every aspect of the business is far superior.

I came in one morning for a coffee and pastry last month while staying nearby. I had seen photos…read moreof the inside and the deck and this looked like a charming coffee shop. They were out of muffins when I stopped in, around 10am so that was disappointing. I didn't end up with any pastry to go with my coffee bc they didn't seem to have anything else available that day for some reason. The coffee was strong and good. I ended up doing an iced oat milk latte - no syrup. I spent a bit of time chatting with the friendly barista and then headed upstairs to take in the view The restroom was somewhat small and nasty in comparison to the rest of the decor and looked like it could use some TLC.

Tables and chairs inside with great AC and a super cute wood deck patio with shade coverings. Orders medium and dark roast coffees and a cappuccino. Hot and delicious. They put half and half in for you. I wish they had jugs so it would be self service but loved the extra service. Also orders the eggle on an everything bagel with bacon. Was delicious and while they are counter service, she ended up bringing out to my table before I noticed her calling out order. Highly recommend.

The cutest coffee place to stop as I rolled through Chattanooga. This location is not too far off…read morethe highway. I sampled the cookies and cream donut.

I got my signature iced oat latte and a blueberry white chocolate scone which was huge and only like $4! Prices very fair and they're not killing you on the alternative milks. Really charming inside and they have some sandwiches and other foods and nice places to work and sit and get comfy if you have time. Parking was a bit challenging with only about 4 spots in the back lot and no real street parking unless you pay to park which, I wasn't gonna do for a 3-minute to go coffee. Highly recommend if you're in town or driving through like me.

Great little coffee spot on Signal Mountain!…read more I came here on a Friday morning/early afternoon and it was fairly busy. I didn't have to wait long for my coffee and blueberry muffin though - I ordered one of their seasonal lattes (very good!) and I was tempted to get a breakfast sandwich, but I opted for a muffin, which was also good. There's a lot of seating inside + outlets for if you're wanting to post up with your laptop, which I did for an hour or so. Then, you're right down the road from Signal Point where you can spend the day hiking!

I had very high hopes. The menu looked great…read more The cold brew coffee was ok. Not bold, pretty weak. The bagels are offensive at $5/ea They taste like refrigerated grocery store bagels. I'm fairly sure that's all they are. There's no value in the bagel.
