Stopped by today (7/18) and was pretty happy with my food, the location and the service. It?s right across from the river, and right up the road from where we were staying. Todays special was the double cheeseburger with a drink and fries for 12 bucks.The cheeseburger was super yummy! I ordered a side of hush puppies and they were good too. My kiddo ordered barbecue wings andsaid they were some of the best wings he has tried. Besides the great food, I have to give a shout out to our server, Ms. Katie.She was super attentive, sweet, and positive. I enjoy great service with my food, and she delivered. If you?re by signalmountain, stop on by this family friendly restaurant. Nice people, affordable specials, and am overall yes for me.

River Drifters is a fun place to eat. We love to go after hikes in Prentice Cooper or by the Pot House. The porch is covered dog friendly a huge plus. The beer is cold with a good selection. The menu is eclectic even has a vegan option. We enjoyed adelicious lunch after a hot hike. Our server, Katie, was attentive knowledgeable making it a great time.

The staff at River Drifters was great and the food after a half day of kayaking was the icing on the cake. We will be new regulars, I had the wings and my wife and daughter had the burgers. I would have posted pictures of the food but we dove rightin and didn't get the chance to take a picture.

Amazing attention to detail, prompt service, phenomenal service? overhearing others guest experience you can?t help but acknowledge how caring the staff is here about very little last detail on the guest dining experience even with a full patiothe service is quick prompt and accurate. 10/10 experience and will be back. Perfect Chattanooga spot to soak up some sun andchow down on some good family owned cooking. Heads up, bring an empty stomach because the food is AMAZING!

Food was excellent and my server Hannah was friendly and efficient. Prices were fair and atmosphere was relaxed. You can walk across street and get nice photos of river. A place worth going out of your way to visit.
