We had our Christmas party here. The service was fast and friendly. The food was hot and tasty, and the blackberry cobbler with ice cream was delicious.

The only thing I'd change is that the ow er of the complex needs to redo the bathrooms. They've been woefully ignored. Ate at Mammie Carlotta's in the back of the Merchantile for my monthly ladies lunch. The food, service, and atmosphere was perfect for us. We had so much fun. Then got to go looking through all the fantastic booths with antiques, repurposed, etc items. Will definitely return!

We love this stop in Chattanooga. It's definitely a day trip/destination. Whether you are looking for boutique clothing, antiques, arts and crafts or more...they have it all! I know why do many decorators shop here. Make sure you eat lunch in the tea room!!! Get the sampler for a little bit of everything. They have the cutest kids meals...our son got his favorite Peanut Butter and Jelly and look how cute it was served. I love they are open long hours...when everyone else is closed. Great job to the owners and to the wonderful vendors/merchants. It's the best we've found in the area.

Good food at a reasonable price. The atmosphere is incredible, and the staff may be the most pleasant I've seen in a while.

HUGE. Make sure you're prepared to stay a while! Great finds, different pricing per booth, so if you find something out of your price range keep looking for others that are cheaper!

Talk about big! This place will take more than an hour to go through. A wide assortment of both old and new - this is not a place to be missed by lovers of home decor and antiques, especially those oriented around a southern, country vibe. Be sure to check out the tea room in the back for lunch!

Awesome atmosphere I would definitely highly recommend the food was excellent the service was great and you feel very welcomed and you will be shocked with the taste and quality of food it is good highly recommend

Interesting place full of different booths -- flea market style but upscale. My wife and I just love to browse and get ideas for our own projects.

Stopped here on a whim - the staff was super friendly and helpful and there was a lot of interesting things! It’s a mix of antiques and new home decor. There’s different vendors with different things and most of the prices were very reasonable. The cafe next door is great too!

New and old. So much to be found here. The owners and their booth owners turned this place into a charming and intriguing business. The vibe of the building is now cozy and gorgeous.
There is a lunch restaurant in the back. We had already eaten, otherwise we would have tried it. We will go back soon .
The collective decor is so lovely.
Truly, there is something for everyone here. In general the prices were good.
Can't wait to go back and see the other half. We were short on time.

So many options! Along the aisles, I was able to find a pitcher for the basin and pitcher set my mom made for her mother years ago. A long story short- The original pitcher is missing. The one we found ought to fit nicely. And, it was a good price!

Great place. we didnt have enough truck with us to get everything we wanted. Will have to come back when we are in town next time. Awsome place and great people.

Great selection of antiques and they have snacks! My only recommendation would be to add aisle numbers, because this place is huge.

Love thus place. Found a beautiful patio set and a gorgeous plant stand. Lots of good stuff. Priced accordingly.

What a cool place with super friendly staff! No matter how much stuff is on the piece of furniture you want, they will help you pull it out and load it with a smile on their face.

Thank you. This is a great place to browse, as we went in not entirely sure what we wanted. By the time we left, we were confident in our new furniture choices. Looks amazing in our house.

Great place. So many displays of antiques to see and purchase. We had lunch there and the dinning room was set up so nice. Food was very good the staff was very friendly. We will definitely go back again.

Lots to look at a good Sunday afternoon stroll something's really overpriced though

The best. Great atmosphere, lots of great stuff. And a wonderful place for a great meal.
We will definitely return.
