This was our first time here and we will be back OFTEN!!! The girls that were working were so happy and you could tell they really worked as a team. The food was AMAZING! But the reason we came was for the milkshakes. And we were NOT disappointed! They were HUGE and fancy and DELICIOUS!!! The only hard part was figuring out which amazing sandwich and milkshake to get!!

Been wanting to try this place for so long. I didn’t know what to expect. We got the meatloaf sandwich and the club! Fantastic and better than expected. Then…I made the mistake of getting a nana split! I literally felt like a kid again! Our waitress was even nice enough to put brownie bits on the split! The only surprise was a literal train went by, I wasn’t expecting it and didn’t realize it was so close! It was great! And thank you to Irina server Kayla!!! Kayla you were absolutely amazing and thank you for your food suggestions! Also I hope your foot feels better. To hurt your foot and continue going up and down the stairs while continuing to smile and perform at a high level! Thank you!

Such a wonderful family dining experience! The food and milkshakes are always picture perfect. The atmosphere is amazing, every bit of the restaurant is well thought out and the attention to detail is obviously. Great place to take photos!

I saw friends posting photos of the tallest and most amazing milkshakes and looked up where they were from. The restaurant is in a historic building right by the tracks where the Chattanooga Choo Choo came through (my guess on that) and they have 2 beautiful, historic and clean dining levels. The top level is rooftop. We came around 11:30 and downstairs was full with reservations for the two larger tables upstairs. We dined by the windows and noticed that the side window would scroll open on nice days. There are a few parking spots in front, and a few more paved spaces to the left of the building. There is a large gravel lot to the right. The downstairs bathrooms are by the staircase, and also on 2nd floor. Very clean and decorated well. Our table attendant was Christine, and she did a great job. There was a large party seated by us and she had to do a lot of running up and down the stairs, but did so with a smile. The milkshakes and also the alcoholic drinks look so pretty, but I try not to eat too many calories and don’t drink, so I didn’t try those. We ordered the Reuben and the Nashville hot Chicken sandwich. My husband loved the marbled rye bread and also his side of potato salad, which he said had “a little kick.” I had the tasty homemade pickles, macaroni and cheese, and a soft toasted bun on my Hot Chicken Sandwich. I got the kettle chips, which I thought would be made in house, but it was a bagged chips. We also ordered the fried green tomatoes with Smokey pimento cheese and pickles and a sauce like Thousand Island Dressing. Our food came quickly and was hot and tasty. We also got nice large thick napkins in addition to the napkins in which our silverware was rolled. We also had a soup spoon and straw in the silverware roll. I took photos of the exterior and interior, as well as menus and our meals. The historic photos and items on the walls leading up the staircase were tasteful, historic and informative. I did not climb up to the rooftop level, but there is a view of the countryside and TN hills along with a historic feel of being “back in time” at a diner by the tracks. The music was also enjoyable. It was selections from the “train era.” Big Band (In the Mood) Rat Pack, Doris Day, and some early rock & Roll “Salish Splash” & Elvis. I recommend a reservation at any time of day. This is a popular place, but the booths and bar top downstairs and tables on upper floors are spaced nicely apart so it doesn’t feel crowded. There was also a nice little waiting area downstairs by the staircase and restrooms. See photos.

Very cool place with milkshakes that are ‘out of this world’. Good was delicious, and the atmosphere was super neat. Everything to the time period as far as the inside goes. They also have a rooftop with tables and games. The kiddos love it here!

My granddaughter and I really enjoyed our sandwiches, and the orange Creamsicle shake…yum! We were both impressed with the cake. The whole thing hit the spot on a hot summer day. This is definitely the place for jazzed up ice cream treats so we’ll be back.

Absolutely incredible stop! Fantastic sandwiches, and insane milkshakes. The menu had good variety without being too all over the place, and it was so much fun to be right near the train tracks! The decor is so clean and the service was amazing. What a fun find!

This has become my new favorite place. Their sandwiches and salads are absolutely delicious and their milkshakes are creative and magical. We are going there for my birthday. I’ll be 46 and I’m excited about getting a milkshake like I’m a little kid. I CAN’T WAIT!! If you haven’t been, go! Like go right now!

Wonderful service, the milkshakes are phenomenal but don’t sleep on the food. We had wing bites and mac and cheese and it was to die for! Would definitely recommend coming here!

Gluten friendly menu items and very kind&knowledgeable server. She even checked the straw website for me to make sure their paper straws are also gluten free!
