“I am looking to potentially move to the Chattanooga area and this place caught my eye! Used books and coffee?! Yes please! I spoke with the owner/operator while I was ordering. She told me that her grandmother opened the store initially for used books, but those don't pay the bills (!) so when she sees people finding books here instead of just coming for the coffee that makes her so happy! There's lots of space and many different seating options. I recently started writing a book and this is the perfect place for that- or any work that needs to get done. Plus, $5 used books are a deal! I ACCIDENTALY got 7....and a latte. I'll be back for sure!! I put that I spent $1-10 for the coffee but I did buy 7 books. Just wanted to clarify!Parking: Free street parking! However, I came here on the heels of a winter storm, so there were not as many people out. Either way, it was easy to park.Kid-friendliness: There is a lot of space that is carpeted that would be great for kids to play on the ground. There are multiple different kinds of seating options too!Wheelchair accessibility: Lots of space between tables and plenty of room. On the first floor.“

“I am sad I have just recently discovered Zarzours. I passed by for years, but never ventured in due to the look of the restaurant. This is 100% a case of don’t judge the book by its cover. The food is so good. Makes me think of my mom and grandmas cooking. The wait staff are so friendly and they take care of their regular customers. Remember, it’s cash or check only so make sure to come prepared.“

“This was our first time. We went to the location at Cherokee Blvd. LOVED the French toast and Farm Stand tacos. But we were placed right between two other families and felt like I was at their table. It was really loud and I struggled to talk to my husband for hearing the conversation within elbows reach of me.“

Vine Street Market Bakery • $$
1313 Hanover St, Chattanooga

“Such a cute spot! My favorites: Mint iced tea, poppyseed chicken, chicken & broccoli, carrot raisin muffins. The casseroles are great for dine in, carry out, or take and bake. It’s a great meal if you need to take dinner to someone or for an easy “homemade” meal that you didn’t have to make yourself. They also have a full spread of treats. The kids love picking something off the counter. Great outdoor dining.“

“This is the perfect sandwich shop. It's the kind of place that you can't find much anymore.The food was so excellent that I couldn't even believe my mouth. The chicken salad sandwich was exactly what I needed. I did ask for a slice of tomato, and that took it to the next level. The fry batter was perfection ? I ordered the chicken fingers for my kids and found myself snatching a bite from their plates when they were finished.I hope you give this place a try next time you are in the area.“

It may not look like much compared to some of the bigger spots nearby, but the way you feel when you walk away from Mr. Bill’s cannot be replicated at the bigger stores!“
