Nikki's Drive Inn - Chattanooga

We stumbled upon Nikki's drive inn on accident and glad we did. Located a few minutes away from the crowded downtown scene this restaurant is a hidden gem for dining in Chattanooga. Talking with the employees they make everything from scratch and I could tell. The cheeseburger was mouth watering, the onion rings are a must have. The table next to us order jumbo shrimp and next time I'm in town I'm ordering those! They are the largest shrimp I've ever seen. The food was delicious, the wait staff was great, and the owner was gracious.

My man and our two toddlers ate here this weekend. We really enjoyed it. The onion rings were really good, and none of us even likes onions. We also had catfish, which was pretty darn good too. The waitress informed us that it isn't really catfish, but an ocean fish, and that's why it's so clean tasting. The kids enjoyed eating outside and ate a whole cheeseburger and half a grilled cheese between them. The prices were very reasonable and it was very casual. We get nervous about taking our kids to restaurants sometimes, but we felt really welcome here. We will be back!

Great old fashioned drive in like we ate at when we traveled in the 60’s. Great food and service. World famous onion rings. 

Nikki’s has been in this same spot for years with the same small menu but everything they do is amazing!! The burgers, the onion rings the shrimp!! OMG you must go here for lunch!!

This is an unassuming diner, nothing more and nothing less. Hamburger steak with fries- good homemade fries is my go to meal here. Bring cash because they don't take cards, but there's an ATM on the premises. It's not a purveyor of gourmet locally sourced organic shade grown small batch non-gmo **** and it doesn't pretend to be. I'm fine with that.
