Such a summer spot!!!! I came with my boyfriend and stayed an hour later just for the great environment and music. Was recommended this place from so many friends and was happy we decided to go. Our smoothie bowl was SO filling and worth the price. If you are looking for a place that makes you feel good after, this is the spot.

For the past four years, Southern Squeeze has been my go-to spot in Chattanooga. It all started with their detox juices, fresh and vibrant, the perfect pick-me-up on a hectic day. One visit turned into many as I explored their vegan menu, each dish more delightful than the last. From hearty bowls to creative wraps, I’ve tried nearly everything—and never once left disappointed. Their shots are a game-changer, tiny bursts of wellness and flavor. Southern Squeeze isn’t just a restaurant; it’s a haven for fresh, wholesome food, and it’s easily my favorite vegan spot in town.

I came here on a whim because I found it on GMaps as one of the only organic restaurants in the area and wound up walk/running a few miles in my jeans to get here with enough time to properly chill. This spot exceeded my expectations; The food is excellent and something you can feel good about consuming. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable about allergies (gluten / celiac) The vibes are lovely, both indoor and outdoor seating. I came here the day after my first visit for lunch even though it was making me late for my following plans. Come check it out!

We have been visiting Southern Squeeze for a few years and it has become one of my family’s favorite and go-to spots. We value whole food based meals and eating the least amount of processed foods as we can and it’s hard to find such quality like Southern Squeeze offers! I never have to worry about eating something i have an allergy to because they’re so transparent about their ingredients. The nachos and pad thai are mine and my husbands favorites but we love trying the seasonals and haven’t had something we’re not fans of yet ! :) And the smoothie bowls and juices are just the best around! Such a treat whenever we visit! Thank you guys for what you do!

My new favorite restaurant! I highly recommend. I have a lot of health issues and this food made me feel so good after!! You glow after! Everything was sooo scrumptious, delicious and phenomenal!! Worth the price!! The waitresses were so kind too and took the time to look up the ingredients for me to make sure there were no allergens. I've tried the herb cashew cheese spread, the gluten free waffles, the glow smoothie bowl, the detox salad, the caramel slice dessert, the lentils, the vegan borscht!! Best soup ever!!

We really enjoyed the food! It’s very fresh and tasted amazing. We also love the fact that there are no seed oils used! We sat next to a nice family who said they come here every Sunday from 45 mins away! This may be our new favorite spot. Check them out

Always up for trying different types of food. Southern Squeeze specializes in plant based food. As a meat eater I have to admit it was delicious. The Aztec Bowl was full of flavor, delicious and filling. The lime vinaigrette dressing added to the flavors without overpowering the meal. We also ordered the Morning Shred. The sweetness with the salad was very well balanced. A must stop for a healthy light alternative to a typical burger meal. We’ll be back.

We enjoy this restaurant. The simplistic, peaceful atmosphere is almost perfect and the outdoor seating is a shaded delight. Oddly enough, I found myself being angry at the burger. I couldn't help but wonder if the person who created the height of it had actually ever tried to eat it. Dinning with an active toddler, I just ain't got time to fiddle with the required napkins and falling bits as I tried desperately to squish the whole thing down enough to fit in a bite. In the end it required a bite from the bottom and then a bite from the top. Not a pleasant way to eat a burger or any sandwich. Although the burger is tasty, it's just oddly tall and narrow. If I were serving it to guests, I'd rethink it's proportion. And I had to remove the huge rib out of the romaine lettuce leaf, which someone probably should've done in the kitchen. The carrot soup was very hardy and flavorful. My small child happily inhaled his smoothie. Ignored his cranberry orange muffin (which we saved and he ate for supper). Tasted, but said "yuck" to the carrot soup. And only wanted to eat the bun from my burger.
