Chattanooga?

Taking a brief spring break trip next week with wife and child to our neighbor to the north. Any suggestions on kid friendly places with good food and drink?

http://lupi.com/ Lupi's Pizza is sort of quirky and fun, kid friendly. The pies are decent the last time I was there about 2 years ago. (Warning: It's regular pizza, it's no Antico or Varasanos.)

Do like the place. Not sure I'd call it regular. I guess I'd say it a much better version of Mellow Mushroom style.

Riverside Catfish House is about 10-15 min. outside the city (on 41, next to the Tennesee River), and has great catfish fillets and an AYCE. They have some other stuff like chicken fingers and the ilk, but the catfish is right tasty.

Don't get completely sucked in by all that is in downtown by the aquarium.  There are lots of options now north of the river, mainly at the base of the Walnut st. bridge (now only pedestrian use - pretty amazing we used to drive over that rickety thing).

Thanks.  Any particular favorites?

Southern Star is a decent family-friendly meat and three on the South end of downtown:

http://niedlovs.com/ is as good as any bakery in Atlanta.

I like the North Shore, but haven't found any outstanding eats there.  However, Clumpies Ice Cream there is a must if you're with kids.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a nicer restaurant in Chattanooga where I can take hubby for his birthday while we take a long weekend to explore the town? I was considering Easy Bistro as we are staying downtown and duck is on the menu (hubby's fave).

It has been a couple of years but St Johns was wonderful.

St. John's is great, they've opened up a newer Italian restaurant nearby, can't remember the name.  I've only been to Easy Bistro for brunch and it was nice, especially for the touristy area.  Former St. John's employees have opened up the Public House at Warehouse Row and we've had many a good lunch there.

Any more suggestions for Chattanooga?  It's been awhile since last reply.  We are staying downtown, but not afraid to drive.

We're fans of the Terminal Brewhouse next to the Choo Choo. The food is fantastic and not very pricey.
