Cafe on the Corner is a cozy little eatery and the perfect place to wine and dine your date this winter. The building, located just outside of downtown on Lookout Mountain, originated as a grocery store in the early 1900s. It was eventually transformed into this charming bistro that serves southern favorites and indulgent desserts that are perfect for sharing.

3. Look Out Winery

Enjoy a scenic, laid back afternoon or evening at Look Out Winery, a worthwhile 20-minute drive from downtown Chattanooga. You and your sweetheart can sip unique wine blends while taking in a stunning view of the Tennessee River Gorge. All the wines are crafted to pair perfectly with the winery’s fresh woodfired pizza.

4. Alleia

With its low lighting, rustic interior, and beautifully presented dishes, Alleia is easily one of the most romantic restaurants in Chattanooga. Start your evening with artisan cocktails and seasonal wines before moving on to elegant Italian fare that’s been handcrafted with locally-sourced ingredients.

This vibrant neighborhood has become one of Chattanooga’s hotspots for evenings out.

Explore Chattanooga Cinderella-style with a trip through downtown in an old-fashioned horse-drawn carriage.
