Jack-A's Chop Shop Saloon

Went last night for the first time with Harley man. I am not a bar person, but actually had a good time.  Surprised by the menu offering more than just typical fried/bar food.  Ordered grilled asparagus and veggie kabob, that were very good.  HM ordered  and enjoyed the softail burger with asparagus side.  We sat at the bar, met a few senior citizens like us, and had a few drinks. The band was decent, provided you like Country music. Lotsa motorcycles in the parking lot, and tables outside for smokers. It had a mixed age group, which I liked. Its hard at 62 to be in a bar environment with a bunch of youngsters, who forget we like to have fun too, or without us feeling out-of-place.  A few people danced, but for the most part, it seemed that food, drink and conversation were the main attractions, even though inside the music was a bit loud for conversation.  The owner (or manager) was very welcoming,  the  waitress was friendly and made some stout drinks.

Went for drinks, tried the Fried Green Tomatoes and they were damn good.  The grouper fingers were, meh at best.   Our waitress was cute when dancing.   Though I can't say that's true for the 70+ lady with the dang ol' fake boobies that was scaring all the younger crowd with her predatory stares.   Needless to say I finished my drinks after sticking around for longer than I had planned and moved on to new bar....

"Best saloon in Chattanooga! Great atmosphere and live music! Amazing food, the burgers are addicting! Excellent service, but come early before the place fills up!
