Food scene
Awesome vegan menu for plant based eaters looking to hang out in downtown Chattanooga. It’s very close to Coolidge Park and the Walking Bridge, as well as several popular ice cream shops. We like to find a parking spot near here and then walk around for the evening. Also, parking is free after 6 pm Mon-Sat, and free on Sundays!

Amazing Thai food and awesome sushi at a great price! Close by. We recommend picking it up directly for take out, as Door Dash prices seems to be much higher for this restaurant.

Awesome breakfast place! Go before 9 to make sure there is little to no wait. Wait much longer and you might be fighting a big crowd :) we really like the Kale Tonic to go with our meal!

Sightseeing
Easy walking/running/biking trail along the South Chickamauga Creek, a few minutes away. I usually run there (about 1.25 miles) and then enter the path in the right until my Map My Run app notifies me that I’ve hit 3 miles, then I turn back and head for home… this is to say I’m not exactly sure where the best place is to park, lol!

Very loved hiking trail through the woods. We have yet to explore it entirely because part of the vast matrix of trails of the Enterprise South Nature Park. Some short loops and also much longer trails. If you want a scenic hike close by (12 minute drive)… this is for you.

Great place for quick morning/evening walk or run. There’s a paved, easy, 2.0 mile loop around this entire park. Great for people and dogs (must be on leash). About 8 minute drive on an average day.

Greenway Farms Dog Park
Red Bank Dog Park
798 Ben Miller ParkwayOne of my favorite all time spots is McKay’s Used Books CDs and More! This place has so many treasures to include vinyl records, used video games, comic books, dvds, and everything you wish you never traded or sold in the first place! Definitely a fun store to visit. Try to go early in the day and during the week. Expect large crowds on the weekend.
