The Big Chill and Grill
About This Spot
Stepping into The Big Chill and Grill on Cherokee Boulevard is like finding a well-loved neighborhood retreat where familiar warmth and spirited energy peacefully coexist. The atmosphere hums with easy camaraderie—the kind that invites you to linger a little longer with friends or settle in solo at the bar without feeling out of place. It’s a relaxed pace, where friendly chats blend with the clink of glasses and soft background music, crafting a space that feels both vibrant and inviting.
This bar & grill wears its charm through thoughtful touches—whether it’s the welcoming nods from attentive servers or the buzz of lively conversation framed by modest, comfortable décor. The menu plays its part as more than just sustenance; it feels like an exploration of comforting flavors and lively accompaniments. Imagine starting your day with a carefully crafted Bloody Mary bar, or unwinding later with daiquiris that many locals consider a highlight. The food leans into hearty traditions with a twist, from crispy fried chicken to dishes that carry a little Southern soul, matched perfectly with sauces and dips that invite sharing and savoring.
Evenings bring a gentle shift in pace, where the daily specials and cleverly composed libations encourage a slower, more indulgent rhythm. Whether you’re nestled at the bar or spread out over a cozy table, the mingling of good food, welcoming service, and a comfortably casual vibe shapes the kind of experience that stays with you beyond the visit.
For those who appreciate the rhythm of a place that’s unpretentious yet thoughtfully tuned to its community, The Big Chill and Grill offers a setting that feels both familiar and refreshingly genuine—a spot to relax, connect, and enjoy local flavor in more ways than one.

The food was excellent!! My steak was cooked to perfection and everything was seasoned well. The drinks, the vibes, the service was awesome. The after dinner show was so much fun!!! This is an excellent spot to hang out and have fun!

We sat at the bar and it was a pretty good experience all around. The service was good and the daiquiris that they offer are very tasty! The chicken that i ordered was not the best but the service made up for it and the environment as well. This is definitely a great place to chill and have a relaxing drink!

Stopped in n for a quick lunch. Was told the food was excellent and fresh…..SPOT IN! My wife ordered the Chicken Salad Croissant fresh and very good. The portion was large and ended up taking half of it home. I ordered the Cuban Sandwich, which was served on fresh roll and full of flavor. Highly recommended! Nice decor and a full bar with a large selection of Bloody Mary accompaniments.

I've been a couple of times and the food is pretty good. Nothing special but sometimes that's alright. This place really shines with the daiquiris. They are delicious! Also, the service is really nice and attentive.

The service here is really great. Overall, the food is higher end bar fare. I have always felt like a valued and welcomed patron. Recommended when in Chattanooga if you are looking for a fun place to eat and drink.
