    Normally I don't really bother writing reviews on Starbucks. But this one felt so different upon entering. Parking was easy and there were exactly 0 other customers present when I left the building. There was lots of different sitting areas, including a 4 seat area right by an interior fireplace, which I had never seen before in a Starbucks. It felt super cozy and cabin chic. Food and drinks were made really fast and everything was just as I ordered.

    Creme brûlée caramel latte has now become a holiday favorite even though I don't drink coffee. It'll also be my keto treat! Lol Cute little shop located right across from Rock City entrance parking lot. Masks required. They have some seating outside if you'd like to stay and enjoy your drink also. Friendly staff and drinks tasted great. Nice hot drink to warm up from walking around in the cold at Rock City.

    Right outside the Rock City Entrance. Sip and Savor the surrounding beauty or hit the trail early and grab a tray to go. Fast friendly service and staff.

    They USED to give a "MIITARY" (sic) discount.

    It's 40 degrees F and overcast...great day to treat myself to a Latte! Just NOT HERE. The seating area is closed. I asked, and was gleefully informed "we have outdoor seating!" Remember: it's 40F outside and this isn't Telluride. Four workers, and they can't afford to open their seating area? Why is there a FIREPLACE there if you're not going to use it? And, they still give a local school discount (students, faculty, and soccer moms), but no military discount any more. Time to find a better coffee place. Blech.

    So cute!!!

    After leaving Rock City, we walked over here so I could get a mocha frappucino. The line was short and the cashier was friendly. My order was up in the usual amount of time. This location had a good selection of TN and GA themed Starbucks mugs and tumblers. I rarely see state themed ones anywhere so I was excited to see them in stock.

    One of the most beautiful Starbucks anywhere. The stonework on the exterior blends in well with the mountainous surroundings & the giant fireplace inside is welcoming. A great place to stop in for a quick drink or to relax & chat with friends.

    Probably one of the cutest Starbucks I've seen yet. I was hoping for a souvenir from here but all they had were Atlanta mugs, I'd say we are far from that city lol. Bathrooms are outside which reminds me of a old gas station. Nice patio area to relax and take in the mountain vibe.

    New remodel looks great!

    This is such a great location. They have recently done renovations that has tripled their space. There are plenty of parking spaces and you do not have to enter the park to get coffee. The surrounding area is beautiful and can be the perfect start to your day. The staff are kind, friendly and knowledgeable. It is very clean and tidy. This will definitely become my favorite location because it is located outside of Chattanooga atop lookout Mtn.

    Familiar and better than the coffee you get inside of the rock city. The cold brew is really worth a try.

    Big thank you to the locals I met last night at La Altena for recommending this place! The wife,…read moreAnna, stated "if you want a good cup of coffee and an excellent pastry, this is your morning stop!" Even a little after 10am on a Saturday, you can tell this place is a very popular hangout. I waited in line for about 10 minutes, but the line moves fast. I concur with other reviewers that the staff is so friendly, helpful and energetic. I ordered a Cafe Au Lait with a shot of caramel syrup. Once I looked at the pastry items, I knew the Blueberry Lavender scone had my name all over it! I sat outside on a sidewalk bistro table and enjoyed both items immensely on a gorgeous Chattanooga morning. This place also has inside seating as well as a nice patio setup. So happy I got to experience this place! (P.S. The line is still out the door when I left!) :)

    You enter into a broad space with merchandise and tables with a counter of breads and dessert…read moretreats. The idea is to order and pay at the counter and to receive a number for your table. We didn't know and went straight to outdoor seating, which worked out because we got a table and about a minute later we figured out the ordering process. I ordered the chicken salad croissant for my wife, then the California club for myself and then I had to order quiche Lorraine for the table. I had filtered tap water for my drink and my wife had a can of Diet Coke with a slice of lemon and ice in a cup, provided. Service was pretty quick, between our order placement and table delivery it was 7 minutes. The quiche was custardy inside with a delicious hint of caramelized shallots to go with the bacon and cheese/egg filling. The bacon did not overwhelm. The crust was perfectly baked and a nice flakey crust. The accompanying arugula and onion salad dresses with oil and vinegar and seasonings was an excellent pairing of freshness with the richer quiche. This is a big hit, as expected when advertised on the menu as "available until sold out." The California Club was on 6 grain toasted bread with an avocado spread and aioli, bacon, turkey, tomato and lettuce. I really liked the balance of each component in this sandwich, such that nothing dominated the flavors and each distinctive was individually identifiable in the contribution to the whole sandwich. The portion was just right. The chicken salad was also good, but was the bronze medal winner compared to the other two. The croissant was flaky, but not too much. The chicken salad had just a hint of lemon and was not overwhelmed with aioli, just the right balance. This was a fantastic meal. We liked this so much, we chose to buy two loaves of bread to go, a Chattanooga Sourdough and a garlic Parmesan and also a 5 lb bag of in house ground bread flour. I need one of these in Greenville, SC, my hometown. Last thing to note, you bus your own table and there is a dish basin nearby the outside dining area in which to place your dishes. This was an excellent lunch spot. The staff were also friendly and patiently helpful. This is a must visit spot when visiting or living in Chattanooga!

I had just finished an extremely long and hot hike to Edward's Point so they were patient while I asked about everything and made a custom iced coffee and soda and purchased some other goodies from inside the shop. They assured me that, although the coffee shop closed at two, I was welcome to walk up to the barn where the alpacas were in the shade and there were more tables and I could sit and enjoy my drinks and feed them for as long as I wanted. I spoke to a friendly gentleman up there for a few minutes who was cleaning up and then sat for a half hour and enjoyed some alpaca therapy. They've very cute and friendly. Excellent little stop and my drinks and muffin were delicious. Prices were very fair.

    I absolutely loved this place. I'm from Miami, so coffee shops like this are basically nonexistent…read morefor me, which made the experience even more special. My friends and I drove from Dallas, Georgia just to visit Rosie Mae's, and it did not disappoint. The coffee was absolutely delicious (I had the s'mores latte and it was so good), but honestly... the alpacas were the real highlight. I didn't know I needed an alpaca experience in my life until now, and wow, pure joy. Do yourself a favor and make the detour. The girl working at the coffee shop was so sweet, which just added to the whole experience. The vibe was relaxed, unique, and unforgettable. I would 100% return and I'm now low-key inspired to own my own alpaca farm one day . Truly such a special spot.

    Milk & Honey absolutely lived up to the hype. We went for breakfast, and despite the fact that they…read moredon't take reservations, we didn't have to wait at all which already felt like a small miracle. Our server Katie was fantastic. Since it was our first visit and everything on the menu spoke to us, she helped steer us in the right direction. I ended up ordering the pistachio croissant, and honestly... I'd go back for that alone. It was warm, huge by croissant standards, and absolutely heavenly. I even grabbed another one to take home because Future Me deserved a little happiness too. We also tried the raspberry lemon danish, which was a delicious combo, but the pistachio croissant stole the show without breaking a sweat. We started with the poutine, and while it wasn't the traditional version I've had before, it was incredible. Instead of cheese curds blocks, it came with pulled pork and melted cheese, and somehow it just worked. Comfort food with a little Southern flair. For breakfast, we had the ham and cheese omelet with breakfast potatoes. It was exactly what you want it to be--classic, satisfying, and impossible to regret if that's your usual order. I also tried the Liquid Gold juice. Their juice selection is impressive, but I may have accidentally found my forever order on the first try. It was so refreshing, with just a hint of ginger. For a hot drink, I highly recommend the London fog. I'm not usually a tea fan but if you don't want coffee, this is an excellent option. Before we left, we picked up some of their salted caramels to go, and they make the perfect little gift... assuming you have enough self-control not to eat them all in the car. The vibe here is upscale southern diner. One of the signs on the wall said, "All are welcome, but you need to act right," and honestly, that's the kind of life advice we could all use. I also really appreciated that parking was free. In Chattanooga these days it's hard finding a place where you don't have to scan a QR code, download an app, and pay to park just to eat. Great food, great atmosphere, great service. Milk & Honey is absolutely worth a visit...and if you're debating the pistachio croissant, stop debating and just order it. Your only regret will be not getting a second one.

    Milk & Honey was one of the most popular brunch spots we visited in Chattanooga, and after eating…read morethere, I understand why. Be prepared for a wait, especially during peak brunch hours. We spent some time outside before being seated, but the food and service made it worth it. I stayed in my carrier throughout the meal and was able to join my humans indoors. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and never made us feel out of place. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was lively, and the service was attentive even though the restaurant was busy. Now for the most important part of this review. While enjoying brunch, I witnessed something I never expected to see: a baby goat riding around the restaurant in a pet stroller. At that moment, I realized Chattanooga may be one of the most pet-friendly places I've ever visited. Between the great food, kind staff, and unforgettable people-watching opportunities, Milk & Honey ended up being one of our favorite brunch stops of the trip. Dogba's verdict: Excellent brunch, friendly service, comfortable carrier dining, and unexpected goat encounters. Five paws !
