The beer was good, our server forgot about us, but the beer was good. Had to go ask for someone to come back and take our food order, but the beer was good. When we did get our food.... Did I mention the beer was good?

2 1/2 hour wait for food with empty tables all around. This place is terrible. Very unorganized

Met up with some friends for lunch. The food was good. Great environment. Unfortunately at lunch time there was no wait staff so we sat and decided what we wanted and then had to go up to the bar and order. They did bring the food to our table. My wife really enjoyed their 10 oz beers which was the perfect size for her.Parking: The parking is paid parking lot. I'm assuming for the farmers market next door. But for patrons when you walk in there is a tablet to enter your tag number, and the parking is included for 2 hours.Wheelchair accessibility: What? I didn't like about handicap parking, was that the spaces are far away from the door?.

Excellent food and service. Drink selection good enough. Not too crowded. Had smashburgers, BBQ sandwiches, brisket sandwich and fried oreos. Hazy IPA and Marge and in charge. Seasoned fries and onion rings also great. Parking limited to two hours a bit odd.

This was one of the first local micro breweries to operate their own kitchen. The focus was on bbq and their smoked offerings were outstanding. It's a limited menu, but what they offer, they do well. Over the years the turkey has been on and off the menu based upon cost and availability, but if they are serving it, that's what I have. Their reputation for their turkey is so strong, they offer it is special order item for Thanksgiving, pricey, but it will be a hit if you get. They try some interesting things with their beers, today I had a stout with lavender as well as a red rye ipa, even when they don't hit, it's worth giving them a try, you've got to encourage the brewmaster for being brave. The moon pie stout for me continues to be the finest beer in Chattanooga, so those creative juices must be encouraged. Love the staff, though I wish there was less turnover and the expansiveness of the brewery allows for adequate room for adults as well as families.

I love this brewery! Great location, the food is amazing and the staff are welcoming and friendly. Expansive beer and alcohol selection. They also sell really cute merchandise and have plenty of games to play inside. The outdoor space is beautiful and I will definitely return next time I am in Chattanooga! Everyone should check this place out!

Free parking, pet friendly, and great location. Their draft selection is pretty good. I did enjoy their vegan friendly menu! My fiancé had the bbq nachos and cleaned the plate haha! Service was great at the bar. Both of the guys were very friendly.

Good food and beer, but beware of parking. We stopped for a beer, was there about a half hour. It was our first time there and didn’t know the parking fee applied to Naked River also. When we left, we had parking ticket on our windshield from BrightBase, LLC, Parking. I went back inside to ask about validation, and Naked River said if we dispute the ticket and show our receipt to BrightBase, it will be resolved. Not true. We disputed the ticket, but BrightBase refused the dispute, told us Naked River gave us wrong information. Turned out to be a really expensive beer.In response to the owner, when inquiring the server, he never mentioned anything to me about validation or a kiosk, and we never saw a kiosk. This is the first I’m hearing about a kiosk. If the whole lot requires paid parking to a third party, why wouldn’t a server direct us to a kiosk for validation? While I was asking the server about theparking, there was another patron that overheard the conversation and he spoke up saying he wasn’t clear either about the parking situation. And the lot is not owned by the City of Chattanooga. It’s a private lot owned by BrightBase, LLC.

Parking is free for 2 hours if you enter your plate # at the kiosk when you first enter.We ordered the loaded fries with pulled pork (holy yum!) and I had the BBQ sandwich with the apple cider slaw. I asked for onion rings, they brought out fries, but I am not one to say anything, ESPECIALLY when the fries are that good!I need fries to be perfect: not too hard, not too soft, perfectly seasoned. These were all of that.Hubs had the Smash Burger, and it must've been good because he devoured it.We are already looking forward to returning here.One smallish annoyance: the music was a little loud. Maybe I'm just a grumpy old 32 year old ? or maybe it's because the restaurant wasn't super crowded that time. I easily got over it and it wouldn't stop me from returning.Parking: Parking is free for 2 hours if you enter your plate # at the kiosk when you first enter.

Decent brewery and bbq place. We went when it was super busy during Memorial Day weekend so my experience may be a little different than most. I tried the Moon Pie beer and it was good. Maybe not my style or maybe I didnt get a lot of moonpie flavor in it but I didnt hate it. We enjoyed the atmosphere and chillled at the bar for a while. Dissapointed I couldnt get a flight of beer though. "Something something Memorial Day weekend" I was told by the bartender and the bar was slammed as they were running around frantically trying to get ahead of the orders. Seemed undersatffed considering the event happeneing directly in front of their place. Naked River has a great looking patio that would be great in the evening or cooler days. I'd like to go back and spend an afternoon tasting beers and sampling their food.

My brother is super into trying beers so he was excited to go here for dinner. We sat at the tables right in front of the bar because we had children. I accidentally spilled my glass of water on myself when I 1st got it. We cleaned it up ourselves and I was soaking wet but it was my fault, when ghe waitress finally came to ask us for our drinks I asked for a mop because the floor under my feet was wet. She said she would bring me some towels (never got them). We placed our drink order and that came back pretty quickly. A group sat beside is at the other table after us. We placed our food order, that didn't take very long but the table that came after us had theirs 1st. No big deal. When we got our food I asked for some extra toast ( I managed to get it after I was almost done witg ny bbq. It was pretty dry and wasn't offered any sauce but I noticed after I was don't the table behind us had sauce. Waitress never refilled my kids drinks or asked if we wanted anything else to drink. Never even checked on us to see if we needed anything but was super attentive to the other guests. My brother called her over to ordered a moon pie sland she never asked if we would like any desert , it took so long to get the moon pie. I finally caught her when she was waiting on the other table and told her to bring us our checks because at that point I was kinda aggravated. Then she said the moon pie was coming up. She brought the moon pie and my brothers check and I tried to hand her my check and card and she walked all the way around to the other table and grabbed theirs. I am a heavy tipper when service is good but we really didn't think she deserved the 15% I left. We were there the whole 2 hours almost and I was dry when I left.
