    Muffin + PB cup
    Claire M.

    I love Southern Squeeze! Such fresh, healthy, delicious food and a huge menu to choose from. The service has always been quick & friendly despite this place always having a crowd and I haven't been disappointed with anything I've ordered thus far. Highly recommend!

    Love Southern Squeeze! Everything is super fresh and you can really tell they care about nourishing your body. It's a little pricey, but the quality and ingredients make it worth it. Definitely a go-to for healthy options

    Homemade chia pudding.
    Diane M.

    Fresh and healthy food variety. Tasty brunch options and homemade goodies--had the tomato soup (tangy & a tad spicy), toasted sourdough bread and chia pudding. Recommend all of the aforementioned, plus their scrumptious frothy cappuccino. Prices are not bad here and the place is clean. Order first and they bring the food to your table. Outside seating among plants is a vibe, even in a rainy day like today (covered roof). Overall, loved this place and hope to come back!

    I love this place! It's so fresh and delicious! It is expensive, but you're paying for organic, quality food.

    Nachos with walnut meat
    Cherelle J.

    Love this place! I tried the nachos this time and they did not disappoint. First of all they're huge and comes with lettuce, lentil chilli, red peppers, pineapple's, cashew cheese, red onion, purple cabbage and you can add walnut meat. It's enough 2 people , and everything's delicious. We always visit when we go to Chattanooga.

    Nooga Nectar - Apple, celery, pineapple, kale, lemon, and ginger (I love the jar!)
    Liz G.

    This is a very cute place to make some healthy choices. The staff are friendly and welcoming. The decor is modern chic, and the vibe is very chill. I ordered several juices: Nooga Nectar, Rhinestone Cowboy, Glorious Greens, and Tennessee Heat. Tennessee Heat and Nooga Nectar were my favorites. All of the juices taste fresh and delicious, and they come in glass jars that would be great for reuse. This place also has bakery items and food that I will try on my next visit. I recommend stopping by; it's gotta be Juice o'clock somewhere!

    Aztec bowl

    Beautiful patio space, quick service, delicious food. Would love to go again and try something new! Everything I saw everyone eating looked fabulous.

    Superfood Oat Bowl with Peanut Butter drizzle
    Michelle G.

    Love this place! So many great options it was so hard to choose. I loved the cocoa nib touch on the body buzz smoothie. So delicious! Will definitely be back to try more!

    This was on my list to try while visiting Chattanooga. I love trying vegetarian places that aren't…read moreall about fake meat. I just got a burrito to go and lucked out with parking in front. It was pretty quiet (early on a Friday evening). I only saw one employee while I was there and she was very nice. She brought me a glass of water while I waited. The burrito was DELICIOUS. I added tofu to it, which probably wasn't necessary, but I love tofu. I guess I was a little disappointed they didn't really do anything to it. I should not have eaten the whole thing, but I couldn't stop. The chips and salsa were also really good. The chips were very crispy and the salsa was fresh. The prices are really reasonable too! I would go back if I visited again (and I don't think I'd say that about anywhere else I ate).

    Parking: Street parking is conveniently located right out…read morefront and usually easy to find. If those spots are taken, there's additional parking behind the building. Just be prepared for a short walk up the back stairs or around the side to reach the entrance. Seating & Restroom: There's both indoor and outdoor seating. The restroom is gender inclusive and wheelchair accessible. Service: Over the past 10 years and many visits, including celebrating multiple birthdays here, service has sometimes felt a bit inattentive or stretched thin. That said, on my most recent solo Sunday brunch visit, the bartender/server was genuinely warm, friendly, and attentive, which made a noticeable difference in the overall experience. It was refreshing and their kind and caring energy was so appreciated. Prices: Prices are very reasonable for the generous portion sizes. Menu & Food: The menu covers a wide range of offerings, which is ambitious and gives plenty of options. I've returned several times to try something new, hoping to discover a standout dish. I haven't quite found anything to write home about yet as most dishes land in the "just okay" category for me. They're filling, but not especially bold, flavorful, or memorable. As someone who really enjoys vibrant spices and layered flavor, I keep hoping the next dish I try will shine, but everything I've had thus far tends to be a bit on the uninspired side. The pancakes have been the most reliable item over the years. They aren't over-the-top, but they're consistently good and comforting. The kids' stack is especially generous and more than enough for most adults. The only French toast option is peanut French toast; a classic version would be a nice addition for those with peanut allergies or folks just looking for regular French toast. On my latest visit, I ordered the migas, which come as four mini tacos with a small side salad. It was decent, though nothing particularly memorable. I ordered a side of hashed potatoes, which were a bit dry. I also ordered a side of the cheese grits, which were unfortunately the low point for me. They were thin and more brothy than creamy. It was a bit like eating nutritional yeast slop. As a Southerner who absolutely loves grits, I'm honestly hoping there may have been a mix-up that day. I'd hate for anyone unfamiliar with Southern cooking, or vegan grits, to think that's the standard, because they can be incredibly rich and satisfying when done well (Sevananda in ATL, for example, has amazing vegan cheese grits), but these were very disappointing. With a little more creativity in the kitchen and perhaps some bolder seasoning or new sauces, the menu could really shine. I truly hope Sluggo's continues to thrive and considers adding more explicitly organic menu options. Just a bit more flavor and flair could really make it a standout.

The cheese here is very good and tastes very similar to nacho/queso cheese. The impossible burger is hard for me to tell apart from a real beef burger, since it has an iron taste I don't see often in vegan meals. The portions are pretty large, and I usually eat about 2/3rds of the plate a majority of the time despite being a high volume eater. Makes it 100% worth the price nothing the leftovers. On the flip side, they have a lot of pastries and delicious deserts at the front. The frosting on the cupcakes are a little sweet but they are delicious and I find it hard to not eat it all at once.

Unfortunately this visit was disappointing. The prices were not posted anywhere, nowhere, no paper menus with prices. This may be fine for people where money is not an object but although I appreciate the benefits of health food and am willing to pay and this is not the case for me. I found this distasteful. We were quickly told that is was a branding choice to exclude prices and a way to engage more with clientele except when I asked how much things were they didn't know... there is so many more ways to increase engagement between customer and staff. Also, all this being said prices are totally reasonable for a juice bar. Next the avocado toast was missing at least two ingredients the avocado oil and the Himalayan salt, so it was pretty bland, small portion and left us wanting the ingredients we were missing. The coconut sky smoothie was good, sweeter than my usual taste but totally yummy. Overall, this visit left me not wanting to return when I was so looking forward to this long awaited return. It didn't hold the same warmth, authenticity and care this time around.

One of the most delightful surprises is that the churros are vegan, and they are unforgettable. The Papillón dish is especially meaningful.

He was personable and somehow remembered both your order and your conversations even months later. That level of hospitality really stood out. Prices are not cheap, and the ingredients are not explicitly organic, but the quality, flavor, and thoughtful menu make it well worth it. Highly recommend if you are looking for consistently great food and a standout dining experience in Chattanooga.
