We had a great lunch at the tab house.
Large selection of tab beers. We did the beer flight. Great option to try different beers. Good price value. The food was great. We had the tap house burger with fries, very great. The burger came juicy with beer cheese and bacon, delicious. The fries were also very good, crunchy and fluffy.
Service was very attractive and friendly.

The food was pretty good. I had the club sandwich. It took a really long time to get our food even though it wasn’t particularly busy. There was a dog in the dining room that definitely wasn’t a service animal judging on the way it behaved, straining at the end of its leash and shaking (sending dog hair and dander flying everywhere). Our server was nice and friendly. All in all a pretty good experience.

The Tap House is in a rustic restored building in St. Elmo. It was just minutes from our hotel. We entered after trying to negotiate the paid parking lot and learned that they validate. James, the beertender was very kind and helped me get my parking taken care of and then had suggestions for a beer I had never heard of. It was wonderful. We opted for the daily special which was a Comfort Burger. It was very tasty and well prepared and served in a flash. Maddie, our server was quite sweet and checked on us just enough and not too much. She didn’t hover, but was personable and attentive. We were there at an off time but quite a few people came in while we were there. Several looked like regular patrons of the establishment.
I saw several items on the menu that I would like to try. I would definitely go there again and have another Foghorn Beer.

Great place for a hot and tasty bite to eat. The food prep was incredible. Service was outstanding and helpful with parking validation. We hope to come back again and sample the beverage selection. I had the Ruben and it was very good. Highly recommend the Donkey sauce for the chips! Mondays are not super busy and the waitress is excellent.

Stopped in while driving through town. Our waitress was timely and very helpful. Had bloody Marys that were fantastic, chicken nacho appetizer with BBQ and beer cheese drizzle that, while heavy on the onion, was some of the best nachos I’ve gotten in a restaurant. Burger was cooked perfectly, to boot.

We came to town for the Lookout Mountain Incline train, but the next available ride up the mountain was 1:30. We walked around town for a bit and I spotted this place.
I’m never going to pass up local brews.
We had a little over an hour to kill and sat at the bar like usual. I ordered the Surf Wax IPA and my girl ordered the Liquid Mary Jane. We also got chips and dip with beer cheese. Perfect snack with a beer.
My IPA was on point. Not too piney and a relatively heavy hitter. My favorite kind of IPA. I got a sip of the Mary Jane. It was good, but not really my kind of drink. My girl loved it so I guess it’s a hit.
It’s a very cool place to hang out and the staff was cool. Clean restrooms and neat historical building.
My only caution is, if you go here drinking beer to kill time waiting on the train ride up the mountain, stop by every restroom you can. It’s a long wait to get on the train and boy was I miserable by the time we got up there. Close call!!

I’ve been here several times and always enjoy it. Great service, great food, and great beer. Came this evening for the Chattanooga Burger Week burger, and I think it’s one of the best burgers I’ve ever eaten. I savored every bite. Sweet potato fries were also good. My wife got the jalapeño-bacon cream corn, and it was great, too.

I was just passing through town a couple months ago and chose this place for food and drink. Good choice. They weren’t bust at all, and the bartender made sure that I ad a good time and made great recommendations.
I had the Trout Spread, served with warm Naan. Very good. Although it was more food than I needed, I followed up with a Reuben sandwich (The Stout). Also very good.
For beers, my favorites were the PegLeg Porter and the Empyreal Raspberry Porter. Highly recommended.

Quick seating and quality food. The fries were soft but still crispy and the burger was juicy and flavorful. Would definitely come back!
