Most Disliked
While many love the charm of Innside, the cozy space can feel a bit cramped during peak hours, which might not suit everyone’s taste. Some occasional diners point out that the variety may seem limited compared to larger establishments. Additionally, the lack of advanced online ordering can delay the dining experience during busy lunch rushes. A few patrons have mentioned the paid street parking as a drawback, particularly on weekends when foot traffic increases. The atmosphere, while warm, might not offer the quiet retreat some seek for a leisurely meal.

Fantastic breakfast or lunch spot. Reminds me of my childhood days of grabbing lunch with my granddad at the Woolworth's counter. It is a small space but they are remarkably efficient at what they do and what they do they do very very well. The cheeseburger is my go to for lunch. The Deluxe grilled cheese is a wonderful option.. But the menu as full of delicious treats.

Absolutely loved this cozy little gem for breakfast! My hubby and I popped in for a couple of hours and left smiling. We had the omelet with everything (loaded and delicious!), the pecan pancakes (fluffy perfection!), and two regular delusions coffees — all served quickly and piping hot. The vibe is warm and welcoming, like a place where everyone knows each other. A few friendly regulars even gave us local tips and wished us a good day. Great food, great prices, and a family-style feel that’s hard to beat. We’ll definitely be back!

Wow, what an amazing place to eat! I had the BLT with tots, and there is no way I was finishing that. The food is amazing and the employees are friendly and funny. Can't wait to come back.

Awesome old school American diner! I was recently in Chattanooga for work for a week which had me at the convention center Monday through Friday, and I went here for breakfast every morning. Big portions of classic, good, American breakfast food, good coffee, and friendly staff. Huge plus that they have country fried ham and biscuits with southern sausage gravy, both of which are getting harder to find anywhere. If you’re in Chattanooga, go here for breakfast!

Don’t even worry about the words, just look at the picture I attached. I couldn’t decide between the bologna sandwich or the BLT. I didn’t have to. PLUS, a fried egg. Nice.

Cute diner, pretty nostalgic and in a good location. The hostess was super sweet and got my to-go order super fast. Food was still warm despite a cool walk back home. Good prices, good vibe, definitely will be back!

Breakfast on a Wednesday morning during a convention - busy, but service was terrific and staff was very efficient. My entree came out later than others, not sure why. But two eggs with sausage and biscuits and gravy - heart portions, decent pricing, and great flavor. My team ate here every morning!
