One of the best cafes in the city. From their food to their coffee, nothing disappoints.

I loved this stop! In a beautiful part of town overlooking the Tennessee River known as Bluff's View and this particular shop is in a cluster of very old and very charming buildings. They have a nice covered patio and plenty of seats there as well as some inside in a small dining room off to the left. I was starving as I had skipped lunch and ordered the Chicken Salad on croissant with a pickle and side of chips. It was served with tomato and lettuce and was sooo good. It tasted like it had a bit of curry or something to add some jazz and it was refreshing and delicious. The pickle was also noteworthy. I purchased a toffee snack and biscotti for later and both were also good. Service at the register was super friendly and I enjoyed my quick lunch here people-watching. It's a popular spot. Theme of Rembrandt is with images throughout, even in the bathroom. read more

Went for the baked goods from a local bakery and they were pretty good! The lemon option was so-so. Coconut macaron was amazing! I can't speak to the actual coffee as we didn't have it this visit. read more

We got there mid-morning on a Monday and lucked out with street parking right in front. It was also pretty quiet inside. I got a biscuit, egg, and cheese sandwich which was delicious! The biscuit was very good and there was a big piece of egg and lots of cheese. I'll admit I burnt my mouth eating it too fast. I thought the price was high but comparable to costs these days and yummy enough to be worth it. It also took quite awhile to be made. I got the Self Portrait, which was delicious and worth the visit by itself. Just the right amount of sweetness. My gf got the St. Tropez pastry, which she didn't love. She said the cream inside was cold and disappointing. I ended up stopping back in after going to the art museum because I really wanted to try a croissant (I meant to order it for my breakfast sandwich, but apparently my brain was on biscuit). It was VERY crowded and the line moved slowly. They were telling people ahead of me that it would be 30+ minutes for anything from the kitchen. The croissant was good, nothing special though. read more

Bright airy coffee shop with a New England vibe. All the pastries looked amazing, it was hard to choose. The employees were eager to offer their opinions which were spot on. Heat up thedoible chocolate scone for the perfect afternoon snack. Plus, I guessed the trivia answer and won a free coffee. Love it here! read more

Update to my review from last year: It had been a while since I last visited, but I recently came back to Chattanooga to see family and made a point to stop at Rembrandt's again. Happy to say it's still just as good. My favorite coffee éclair was exactly how I remembered it, and the rest of the bakery items were excellent as well. I also had a club sandwich, soup, and coffee, which were really good. Consistent quality like this is why Rembrandt's remains my favorite spot. Always worth the stop! Service was great. The outdoor area is nice. read more

Amazing bakery, coffee house, and cafe! We had a wonderful lunch out on their patio and it was lovely. I plan to come back in the spring when the weather is even prettier. Orders are placed at the counter and then your food is brought to your table. Service is prompt and friendly. Rembrandt's is located in the heart of the arts district and you can browse museums and galleries after lunch. We both had the tomato artichoke soup and it was the best tomato soup I've ever had. The soup had plenty of basil and the artichokes added a nice twist. The bowls are huge and the portion is large, plenty enough for lunch. It's served with a soft roll and all their bread is baked in-house. The pastries are incredibly delicious as well! read more

Went to Chattanooga for a quick getaway. I grew up in North Ga, so Chatt was just 20 minutes away and we spent a lot of time there as teens. Rembrandt's was a place we would come to that made us feel so adult and cool, so this visit was very nostalgic for me. It all felt the same. We ordered a mocha latte and a matcha to drink and a Reuben and Harvest Salad with chicken to eat. The Reuben was fantastic, but the chicken on the salad was extremely dry. The drinks were made well though. This was more about nostalgia than the eats for me anyway, so it was fine. I will always come back as long as they're in business. read more

It was a long wait to order food but worth the wait for ambience and desserts. Napoleon bread is a must try I found the coffee drinks are very sugary though for my palette. read more

This is hands down my favorite coffee shop and patisserie. I always overload on the pastries since I don't get it often. The service is great, but it will take you a minute to get your food or drinks because it is a very small shop. But be patient it's worth it. The breads, pastries and soups are made fresh and the coffee is roasted there. The Bluffview Art District is a staple in the Chattanooga area, its skyline is breathtaking! read more

Great spot! The line does move pretty slow so not the best place to go when you're in a rush. Limited indoor seating but a great spot if it's a nice day and you're looking to sit outside!

One of my absolute favorite places to stop in Chattanooga. The line can be long at times, it's entirely worth the wait. Their pastries are delicious and delicate, I highly recommend a nun. My friend had their reuben sandwich and it was incredible, absolutely stuffed with meat and a very well made sauerkraut. I recommend grabbing a few pastries, if you just get one you'll regret it with how good they are. read more

This place is awesome!! The decor is very modern but welcoming. They have indoor seating but I sat out on the outdoor patio, which is very spacious and shady. Their coffee is great - I just got an iced latte but was very happy with it. And the breakfast burrito was delicious! It's huge, so you get a lot for what you pay. Service was efficient even though they were quite busy on a Saturday morning. read more

We stumbled upon a charming little coffee spot in Chattanooga, and it's an absolute gem! This place has everything you could want in a café -- it has sweet treats and the best coffee. There's an inviting outdoor patio, perfect for enjoying your coffee while soaking in the fresh air. The atmosphere is relaxed, making it an ideal spot to unwind, and simply enjoy a peaceful moment with your favorite brew. The only problem we had was we ordered iced tea with sugar but the asked me to use sugar packets. I wanted it sweetened by simple syrup or cane sugar. read more

I had not been to family favorite Rembrandt's since they remodeled and changed the menu a bit so Mom wanted to treat me to breakfast here this morning. The place is still so lovely! We walked throigh the courtyard side entrance into a room full of delectable looking pastries and chocolates A few new breakfast and lunch items had also been added to the now digital menu on the wall. The cashiers were very attentive, friendly, and helpful. Mom got the challah French Toast and I decided to get my 'ol fav the breakfast sandwich. Mom's order was huge and looked delicious. She definitely ate every bite with a smile. My breakfast sandwich was just as large and delicious as I remembered, the perfect combo of egg, cheese, and homemade biscuit. The chai tea latte I ordered complimented it well too. We enjoyed dining on the front side of the cafe and visiting with people walking by and their dogs. This place is still such a unique local treasure of an experience. read more

Since I was in the area with some friends, I wanted to get something small and sweet. But while I was waiting in line, I realized that I was much more hungrier than I thought lol. Rembrandt's has more than just coffee and pastries, but actual food as well! In the past I've always gotten their coffee and it was good, but this recent experience was amazing. I got their Caesar Wrap and their Blackberry Sage Shandy. The wrap was delicious. The romaine inside was fresh and crunchy, chicken was good, and the caesar dressing was tasty. It was the perfect amount of sauce that layered the wrap contents inside yet still wasn't too saucy. My friends got the Firebird and Bluff View Burrito. After trying my friend's Firebird sandwich (which I was also wanting to get as well), I'd definitely come back and order that next. My drink was great as well. It was fruity, refreshing, sweet but not too sweet, and exactly what I wanted for my sweets craving. The iced tea was enjoyable. Everyone was so helpful and welcoming. Their menu was huge and kind of overwhelming at first, but I was very satisfied with what I ordered. The pastries were displayed so nicely in front. Next time I'll have to get a coffee and pastry. I look forward to coming back here again. read more

I see why this has won Chattanooga's Best Coffee Shop award for so many years. This European-style cafe is the perfect place to roll up with your girlies and get a sip or snack. Things you should know: I. PARKING Limited free street parking. II. SERVICE They offer fresh pastries, chocolates, and locally roasted coffee. There's a self-serve water station. One thing I did find disappointing was the presentation of the coffee. Since Rembrandt's seems to go all-out in esthetics, I was disappointed to have my drink served in a plastic to-go cup and not classy dishware. It just doesn't make sense with the effort placed behind the cafe.. III. QUALITY All locally made ~ couldn't be any better. IV. CAPACITY Fairly busy on a weekday, late-morning. Seating is slim, however I always saw a table available during my stay. read more

I've been counting down the days until their reopening to have the chance to finally visit this place! We arrived for lunch on a Tuesday to find the lovely and dog friendly patio packed. Thankfully, inside, there was not a long line, and our ordering was quick. Compared to photos of menu items before, the menu offerings have been reduced since reopening. I was glad to see the chicken salad crossaint sandwich ($10) remained, though. We ordered one along with a club sandwich ($13), the Amsterdam Fog drink and cookie combo ($7), and a Tennessee honeysuckle tea ($4). Went out to find a table that had become available on the patio, and our drinks and food were all out to us less than 10 minutes later. This was one of the best Amsterdam (London) fogs I've had. They do tea very well. The sandwiches were good also, and I'm so happy they have light lunch options, but I'd perhaps only come again for cafe drinks and their in-house made sweet treats (which they have plenty of). As many have already commented, it is unfortunate that much of the original interior character was stripped, and what remains looks like a remodel straight from HGTV. In trying to be understanding, though, as time wears on, it's inevitable that buildings will be in need of some kind of update to function efficiently. I'll add my name to the list of people who plead to Rembrandt's that whatever you do, please do not touch the patio and all its cozy charm. read more

A local favorite in Chattanooga. Located in the art district so many cute things around. I arrived around 1ish so very much still lunch time and they were definitely busy. A lot of people were waiting around for their food. One star deduction for parking (sorry my parking anxiety definitely took over). Some many delicious baked goods. I picked up a bag of coffee beans and best choice ever. Highly recommen the Tennessee whiskey coffee. The staff was very nice and helpful. read more

We were visiting Rembrandt's Coffee House on a busy Saturday night. They had a wide variety of pastries that all looked delicious. I picked the coffee eclair and Nun (cream puff). Since we hadn't had dinner yet, we waited to eat the pastries the next morning. I pulled them out of the fridge and let them warm up a bit. I sliced into each one and they were perfectly filled! The cream was a nice velvety texture. The coffee eclair was my favorite out of the two and had a great flavor. read more

Always visit Rembrandt's when I come to Chattanooga. Very disappointed with my last visit. Went in midafternoon to pickup bread from local bakery. No other customers waiting and 4 service people chatting and unaware. I was standing at the register and was finally told I "was at the wrong register ". No signage to clarify, no greeting. read more

One of my favorite places to grab a coffee or latte, get a sweet treat, or a small meal snack. The lemon tarts are my favorite and are to die for! The crust is tender and the filling has just the right ratio of tart to sweet. They're small, about 4 bites to nibble on along with your coffee or tea if you prefer. I also love the sugar cookies with icing, palmier cookies, and the chocolate truffles, just to name a few. The restaurant sells other items as well. Breads of all kinds come from Bluff View Bakery. The two are actually connected businesses here in the Art District. I love to buy a loaf of the challah bread to take home and make bread pudding with. It's the best bread for bread pudding because it is dense and soaks up the egg very well. If you're looking for chocolates, they sell them here. The chocolates are made on the premises in a different part of the building. There is even a little window to watch them being made. It's very cute for both the little ones and older adults :) Prices are average for the Bluff View Art District area. There is lot parking in front and in the back. Parallel street parking in front, if you're lucky enough to find it. read more

So we had just left Tony's in rembrance is in the same area. You can walk right across the parking lot to get to it. Rembrance is kind of an Italian pastry and coffee shop. They have a lot of things in glass cases, and it looks good, really good. I'm not a sweets fan but I did try to New York cheesecake and it was solid! Everything is reasonable and pretty affordable so you can actually get a few things for not that much money so that's good. Have to wait a little while for the cake to come, which I really wasn't sure why I have to wait for a slice of cake, but that was weird. It wasn't like it was full, when we got there they're only two other people there in line. But, waited about 10 minutes and we were good to go. I will go back to try a different variety of the cheesecake count because they had a couple of them there. They have indoor and outdoor seating so it will be a good place to go ahead and try to order a few things and sit outside. It's a lot of space out there so if it's a good day this is a good move. Also, if you really want to go ahead and plug up your laptop, a lot of people were doing out there as well so it's a really quiet and chill place to relax. read more

A MUST-Visit place in Chattanooga! I love the food, but especially nice for a special coffee and dessert! We love sitting on their terrace patio with our little Cavalier. He gets annoyed at the little birds, but he appreciates a water bowl while we enjoy the shade and ambiance. The bakery items are THE BEST!! My favorite is The Nun. I even served them stacked as our wedding cake. It is like a chocolate cream filled eclair. SO GOOD! Too many yummy items to pick from whether it's breakfast or lunch. You can't miss! It's best to have one person looking for a table to open while another person waits in line to order. Text your order after looking at menu. Turnover at tables is usually quick. read more

Located in the Arts District Downtown this is such a great find. Visiting the area my sister in law recommended this coffee shop. I was pleasantly surprised with the amazing cakes and goods.

Nice little coffee house with good coffee and great food. I enjoyed the Rembrandt salad, which was, to my surprise, a hearty salad with really fresh ingredients. I also grabbed a coconut macaroon to-go. I ate it later and immediately wished I had ordered another. There is some really nice outdoor seating areas for when the weather is nice. However, it was cold, so the cramped inside seating was the only option. I'd recommend adding some weather enclosures or heat lamps so that even just some of the quaint outdoor spaces can be utilized in colder weather. read more
