    Their menu has been scaled way back from previous yelpers' experiences. We had multiple pizzas, a beer, and wings with Nashville hot sauce. The regular pizzas are ok. The gluten free was was a disaster. There was a $6 upcharge and the crust was tasteless, undercooked, and floppy. Not sure I would return.

    Pizza options numerous! No single slices but small/medium/large. Walk up service upon entering-limited seating inside-covered patio out the back door or climb 3 flights of steps to rooftop uncovered patio. Ambiance is laid back-looks like where dudes probably go to unwind! Brewery so not sure of all of flavors. Prices typical of a pizza place. Staff helpful.

    Wings pretty good, with a flight

    Customer service is there with patience and guidance is choosing something to drink and eat. Their wings, their beer and their pizza are too good. Fun to choose some flights or just a pint. A tad bit pricey but nice for a treat here and there. Also unfortunately you do have to pay for parking. A bonus is inside and outside seating

    Tailgate in downtown Chattanooga hoed the game with Harry themes! We stopped in during their first-ever Harry Potter-themed event, and they truly brought the magic to life. The atmosphere was fun, creative, and full of great energy. A huge shout-out to Grey, who was incredibly welcoming and knowledgeable. She walked us through everything from beer to drinks. I maybe took a few home. Her knowledge about the area made the experience even better. I have always loved the main TailGate spot in Nashville--it's my go-to brewery after Marble Fox--so it was awesome to see the Chattanooga location living up to that same great vibe and quality. The beer was fantastic, the service was top-notch, and the entire visit was .

    We were in town for a concert and looking around for a place to eat and have a beer before it, when we spotted TailGate. We've been to a couple of the Nashville locations, so we had to try this one! My husband got a full pour of beer, while I went with a flight. I get a flight whenever I can. The beers were tasty. For food, we chose the spicy vodka pizza. It was a party in my mouth! So flavorful with a hint of spice. The service was outstanding. So friendly. Looking forward to stopping back in the next time we're in town!

    My trivia team came here to play trivia for a change of scenery. My teammates had played here once before, but this was my first time. You place your order at the bar, get a number and find a seat, so I placed my order. I asked for unsweetened iced tea with lemon. They had neither the tea, nor the lemon. What bar has no lemon?? I ended up with water and wings. There was no A/C on the second floor so we ended up playing trivia on the second floor patio in 90° heat, which was not pleasant. The patio is not covered and only has a few sunshades over some of the picnic tables. Sitting at a picnic table for 3 hours also wasn't very comfortable. My friends ordered small pizzas and they smelled delicious. My wings were great. Luckily we had access to a soda machine so we could all refill our own waters frequently. While there was staff around, they weren't there frequently enough on a hot day to fill waters. They were there mostly to clear tables and occasionally check in. The highlight of my night was the cannoli. They were the best I've had since I've been in Chattanooga! A couple of additional details about the place...it is not handicap accessible as far as I can see. There are tons of stairs which does not make it disability friendly. They use plastic utensils and Styrofoam to-go boxes. There are unisex bathrooms, which is nice because you don't have to stand in line. I gave it 3 stars because of the A/C issue and inaccessibility. The food is somewhat pricey, too, though good as far as first impressions go. Get the A/C fixed and earn another star.

    Had a blast watching the Bears game on the patio. Lookin forward to better heaters but the drinks were delicious and our new friend, Kaitlin from New Hampshire was the best!!! Whiskey, Rocky and Ginny were thrilled to be out and about!

    While I was super sad to see the former tenant of this building leave, Tailgate Brewery is living up to the history of good food in a fun venue. The pizza was absolutely delicious and the wings were some of the best I've had in the city. This is becoming the go to place for my bookclub when we're not having a meeting at someone's house because the space, food, employees are all great. 10/10 would recommend for the food and service.

    Stoped in got a pizza and a beer before a concert and had an amazing time! The pizza had a fantastic taste with a hint of spiciness, I loved every bite. All the beers we had tasted amazing, along with a friendly knowledgeable staff. We enjoyed it so much we plan on stopping in on our next trip and you should too!

    Compared to Nashville the food menu is very very small and disappointing. The beer is cold though and service is great.

    Community Pie in downtown Chattanooga is a frequent stop for me. I go pretty much anytime I'm in…read moreChattanooga, which is often. It's one of those places that's consistently good and easy to keep coming back to. The atmosphere is casual and comfortable. They have a patio area that's not fully outside, but the windows open completely when the weather is nice which makes it feel really open and airy. I actually had my rehearsal dinner here, and the staff was absolutely amazing and so accommodating throughout the whole process. Food-wise, I love, love, love their Italian chopped salad. The dressing is so good and it's something I end up ordering every time. They also offer pizza by the slice, which I like because they always have specific slices available plus a rotating "home slice" each day, they're also pretty generous size wise. The slices are good, but ordering a full pizza is definitely better because it comes out fresh. Another thing I really like is the adult fried cheese appetizer, which is basically like a spicy pepperoni and cheese egg roll and it's really good. Parking is typical for downtown. There's street parking or a lot across the street. Most of it is paid parking except for nights and Sundays. Overall this is one of my go-to spots in Chattanooga and somewhere I always recommend when people ask where to eat downtown.

For three dollars, it just seemed too good to pass up. It came out looking great...but, three or four bites in, I felt something was off. Then it hit me! There was no flavor! It's almost like all you guys got on their case for too much salt, so they removed it from the recipe. lol I also had the adult fried cheese. They were just OK. The dipping sauce was fantastic. I'm not sure why they didn't use that sauce in the DeMarco Pizza. If they did, they did not use nearly enough. I think what I did not like about the fried cheese was that...in my head, I expected something similar to mozzarella sticks with flavorful breading. There was no breading to this...it was like a crisp, if that makes sense. It changed the dynamic. Less of a cheese stick, more of a wonton or empanada. I also love trying new things, so I had the blackberry vinegar drink. I don't know why I thought it sounded good, but it was written in fun, colorful purple chalk as if it was a great thing I needed to try....aaaahhh...marketing mind games strikes again. Maybe it's too sophisticated for me. Place was fun. Service was great. Everybody is super friendly. Very nice vibe to it.
