The Terminal Brewhouse
Next to the Chattanooga Choo Choo, The Terminal Brewhouse is a neighborhood restaurant and brewery with a local, comfortable atmosphere and a unique fresh menu. The establishment opened in January 2009 in an old building where modern and classic design elements meld perfectly. Local art enhances the “neighborhood hang-out” vibe. Along with a variety of house-brewed craft beers, The Terminal uses local produce to serve up gourmet pub grub such as the bison burger and the carnivore stuffed sandwich. The most talked-about menu items are the pepper smashed steak, the macho man sandwich, and the house-made wild and crazy mushroom soup. But it’s definitely the beer that takes center stage at The Terminal. Many of the food items
are prepared with beer and others are on the menu because they pair so well with the variety of brews sold exclusively at the restaurant. The Terminal is open Monday-Sunday 11:00 a.m.-12:00 a.m. No. 6 14th Street, Chattanooga 432.752.8090
