My favorite coffee shop in Chattanooga! Not only the best coffee, but also the best staff and atmosphere. There is usually a seat open to work, and they have TONS of plugs along the tables with the bench. Their food is also surprisingly really good for being all vegan and dairy-free (no shade). They also do a student discount and a drink punch card! Not to mention a large FREE parking lot!!

I buy espresso beans here every few weeks. I love the roast they have called, wake up, very yummy! I love the staff, so kind and helpful. You also get a free drip coffee when you buy beans, I love that! It's a very cute shop as well, and they sometimes host markets, or other small events, check them out!

I spent 2 days in Chattanooga and looked up every coffee shop in the area so I’d know where I wanted to go once I got there. Sleepyhead topped my list, and they did not disappoint. The atmosphere was great, and the coffee/bakery were just what I needed after being out in the heat all morning. If I’m ever back in the area I’ll be checking out their other location too.

Easiest 5-stars I’ve given in Chattanooga. A great coffee shop that does pretty much everything right: delicious coffee, vegan pastries, comfortable place to work, and cute merchandise as a bonus. Plenty of parking, tables and outlets to satisfy the most discerning digital nomad. There’s also an aura of calmness that exudes from the decor and vibe. Awesome place to “wake up sleepyhead”!

My favorite coffee shop in Chattanooga by far! I go here at least 1-2 times per week. Quality espresso and matcha drinks with house made syrups that don't taste overly sweet. My favorite is the pistachio syrup. Their house made vegan/gluten free donuts are such a treat. The vibe inside is so lovely and inviting. They also have a menu of mocktails which makes it a great place to meet up if you want something other than coffee, but don't want to drink alcohol.

Oh my goodness, this place is awesome!! So unassuming from the building on the outside, but there’s good parking and the inside is sooo cute. Clean decor style with pops of pink and green, very pleasing to the eyes. Love the natural light and plants. Staff was so kind, and I can appreciate a coffee shop with outlets for charging devices that work well (and your block doesn’t fall out of the socket). I tried the maple cinnamon roll and it was divine. Sweet, of course, but the maple was the perfect amount and the dough was so soft. Getting it warmed up was a game changer. I love how they have clothing you can purchase, and how many options for flavorings and milk. Their bathroom is clean and love how the owners tell their story of how Sleepyhead became Sleepyhead. Will definitely be back and can see myself stopping in quite often!

This is a nice cafe while traveling to Tennessee which is very near to the highway so the detour takes just 6-8 mins. They have board games and cards for kids aged 5 plus to play. Ambience is cozy. They have breakfast items and coffee plus in desserts they have different donuts
