St. John's Meeting Place
If you don't make it to any other recommendations on this list, make a reservation for this one! Meeting Place is Shelby and Derek's favorite restaurant - order the MP Pork Belly Fried Rice or Duck Confit.
Tremont Tavern
Best Burgers in town! This is a local hole in the wall perfect for a casual lunch or evening beer. Tremont Tavern is the namesake of Derek's favorite brew - Hutton & Smith's Tremont Tavern Tectonic Session IPA.
HiFi Clyde's Chattanooga
Clydes just feels like home! This is Derek and Shelby's favorite bar in town. Be sure to look up their live music schedule before you head out for the evening and order the Brisket Nachos as a starter. If you're feeling boozy, try the Jungle Juice!
Chattanooga Choo Choo
The Choo Choo is a beacon of history located in the heart of downtown Chattanooga. Take a walk around the historic station, grab a Turtle Latte from Frothy Monkey, or spend your night out dancing on Station Street.
Walnut Street Bridge
Take a casual stroll across the Walnut St. walking bridge to see a grand view of the river, cityscape, and Lookout Mountain!

State of Confusion
State of Confusion is a great brunch and beverage stop with interesting entrees and cocktails.
