Niedlov's Cafe & Bakery

Came here a couple times during our Chattanooga trip. Would definitely come again! The first time we dined in and got yummy hot lattes and breakfast croissants. My omelet croissant was good, and my husband got the ham and cheese croissant on both visits. On our way out of town we stopped for takeout. I tried a vanilla cold brew with half & half- very good! I got an orange croissant too, also tasty. There was a varied selection of bakery, making it hard to decide what to get! All in all I highly recommend Niedlov's Cafe & Bakery!

The food and drink are both quite incredible and very good value. The BEC was superb. The bacon was thick cut, crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside. The bread was very softy and chewy. It was perfectly portioned and wasn't left overly full. The latte was very tasty and mild. However it should be noted they don't offer low fat milk options. The tea was losse-leaf steeped perfectly. However I wish they would give you a bigger cup! Parking instead great, but not to difficult to find parking. The restaurant will validate your parking. This place is very popular. Be prepared to stand outside! This is very important if you can't handle waiting in the cold. However service is decently quick.

There's good reason Niedlov's has an overall 4.8/5⭐ rating out of over 1600 reviews. They are insanely good! This was the best breakfast I've had in a long time. I went with a classic breakfast: eggs, bacon, potatoes (crispy fried new potatoes) and an English Muffin. Wow... That English Muffin! 🤤... And the BACON 😱🤯. Not too mention they carry the best coffee in the country, Onyx. Just amazing. Comfortable old town vibes inside with a gardenesque covered patio. Friendly service. Everything here is pretty close to perfection. Wish they would expand to Nashville!

Please Visit! There was a line out the door for a reason! The food is amazing and the oatmeal cookie latte is delicious! I cannot say enough good things about the sourdough bread AND these POTATOES! The bacon is perfection, crispy, thick and with the best amount of chew. Don't debate, just GO!

Neidlov’s Cafe is definitely worth a visit, but recommend it for takeaway. The menu features fresh, high-quality options for breakfast and lunch, and the food was absolutely excellent. The coffee wasn’t quite to my personal taste (a bit bitter). The reason I’m giving 4 stars is that the experience felt a bit disjointed. Our coffee arrived after our food, and the ordering process requires standing in line for about 10 minutes, followed by another wait for a table. It’s clear the cafe’s popularity has outgrown its space, which can make the visit feel a bit rushed or crowded. Overall, it’s a charming place with fantastic food, but a little more efficiency or space could make it even better!

Everything I tried was amazing! I got the B.E.C Breakfast Sandwich and Cappuccino. My fiancé got the Chicken Cutlet Sandwich and the Oatmeal Cookie Latte. Also the Ginger Molasses and Oatmeal Chocolate Chip cookies were delicious, chewy and soft . When I’m in the area I will definitely come back.

Miso kale skillet was amazing, as was the banana muffin! Inside is charming and has a warm, homey feel. Patio is really nice, with blankets if it is cold. I had more photos to add but Google isn't letting me add them so I will try to add them separately. Would highly recommend stopping here!! Something to consider is that it is very popular so getting there early is a good idea.

Stopped by from out of town, and this place was AWESOME. We ordered the B.E.C. breakfast sandwich, the chocolate croissant, and two iced lattes. Everything was so good! We decided to grab a baguette on the way out because the sandwich bread was so good. The staff was friendly and the place was very nice. We will definitely be back the next time we're in Chattanooga!

I visited during a trip to visit family in Chattanooga and had lunch with my sister and brother-in-law then coffee with a girlfriend here. Everything that was available for lunch looked so exquisite, and I got a bite of my sister's food. Unfortunately, I can't remember exactly what I got, but I know that it was all really tasty. For my afternoon coffee snack, too, the pastry I had and the drink I had were lovely. The atmosphere is really nice, too, even with a baby with me in a stroller. I would love to go back and try even more options! As with many things downtown, parking is kind of tricky, but if you park in the lot in the back, validation is available from the machine by the Cafe's front door.

Beautiful bakery with fantastic food. Reminds of one of my favorites Perenn in Reno. Tried so many pastries. Probably too many. Peach cruffin. Morning bun. Blueberry muffin. Banana walnut muffin. Pumpkin muffin. Cinnamon roll. Blackberry lavender scone, sweet potato scone. All were excellent. Least favorite was probably the morning bun. Good but not special. Coffee is was decent. Good enough. The egg croissant was excellent. The kale and shiitake skillet was really good. Definitely a place to try for pastures or breakfast/lunch if you're in Chattanooga area. The line got pretty long after 9am Saturday morning. It moves relatively quickly though. Limited parking. There is a paid parking lot right next to the store with free 2 hour validation.

Phenomenal bakery!!! I had one of the best blueberry muffins I've ever had in my life. I knew they'd be good when I ordered a meal from a local restaurant that sources their bread from here. You can't go wrong with their pastries. I was told by one of the staff they're known for their croissants that are also stuffed with a marmalade. I tried the raspberry croissant which was amazing. It was so good I came back here for lunch. Their chicken sandwich did not disappoint either. The bread sopped up the sauces in there. Their coffee isn't world changing but it's still good and better than some coffee I had in the area.

Long time favorite - I have to come here every time we are in Chattanooga. Worth a little wait on a Saturday morning - incredible food - and everyone behind the counter was great. I wish more of the customers had basic common sense/manners (looking at you, 30ish bros mocking females and lingering over your coffees for 45 minutes) and didn't leave people outside shivering when they were finished eating, or that they had the courtesy to put their dirty dishes away - but that's not the restaurant's fault.

Totally worth the long wait in line. The raspberry pistachio scone was just the right sweetness and so soft inside. The ham and cheese croissant had the perfect ratio of filling and was so delicious!

Niedlov's is arguably amongst the very best bakeries in Chattanooga, as attested by the fact that so many local restaurants have opted to source their bread and bread products from them. Their food offerings everyday are excellent, and their service top-notch. Recently, they have opted to expand their portfolio of products and to compete specifically with the local pizzerias. The pizzas have great visual appeal, and the crusts are excellent. Here though is the issue for me, we sampled three different pizzas, and while the ingredients were fresh, looked great visually, all you could taste was the garlic, a major disappointment. This flavor profile will make me very reluctant to consider Niedlov's as an option for our weekly pizza purchases.

Had lunch here with a colleague. Ordered the salmon salad which was so lite and refreshing. The flavors blended so well and every bite was delicious! I ended the meal with a flourless chocolate cookie that was divine! This is a definite return to spot! Plus they have a free parking station for the lot next door.

Wow! Loved our breakfast at Niedlov's! There was a little wait when we got there but the line moved fast and the food was totally worth it. The seasonal butternut squash soup was one of the best soups I've ever had. Incredible and I highly recommend! Vanilla latte was good and filled the coffee craving I was having. Got a brownie croissant as a sweet treat, yum! The outdoor seating is super cute and feels like an escape from the city. I will be recommending this to any of my friends that are visiting Chattanooga

See that tall cinnamon-sugared cruffin (croissant+muffin), back left, with the delicious orange chocolate cream inside? Thank goodness that was mine. Gorgeous lavender lemon blueberry scone bursting with all the flavors and the perfect bit of crunch to the top, not pictured. Also mine. This pretty place with its beautiful brick and wood interior and its sweet and savory offerings was made for a post hike treat and a snack for the road. Call ahead to make sure they have scones like we did. Take extra napkins to open on your laps in the car to catch all of those good crumbs. No regrets about eating some of those mountain earned calories here.

Usually eat breakfast here but today I was in between appointments and stopped in for lunch. Ordered the Rustic Panini without japaleno and it was delicious! 4 stars because I would have liked more salami on it - but it was DELICIOUS! Staff is so friendly as always and it was packed (11:30 am) with people eating breakfast and lunch. Can't wait to have this yummy sandwich again!

I certainly understand what people were talking about, but it came to this place. What a great place for breakfast. The food was flavorful and affordable, and I would certainly go back a good vibe and a service friendly and on top of things.

GO HERE IF YOU WANT A LIFE CHANGING PASTRY. There may be a bit of a line but it's 1000% worth the wait. The raspberry croissants and chive and bacon scone were so delicious I had to go back the next day and get it again. They have a patio that feels like an oasis, water feature and all. Definitely a must visit!

We walked by Niedlov's at 9 am on a Thursday after hearing about the baked goods here. We found it almost like a madhouse - the inside was bustling with patrons and servers, tables loaded with delicious-looking food. There was a line stretching from the order counter all the way out the door and down the sidewalk. Luckily, the line didn't take too long since it was freezing outside! We went with two pastries here as we had also ordered some biscuits from another place down the street: Raspberry Croissant ($4.75) - This croissant was super buttery and flaky, with an slightly crisp exterior and an almost acrid taste from being baked just a bit too long. The interior lamination was great, and there was a sweet and fruity raspberry jam spread on the inside. The exterior of the croissant was dipped into a raspberry icing that is super sweet - actually way too sweet for us. There were also, I believe, crushed freeze-dried raspberries on the top - there were some parts that seemed to have seeds still intact. Overall this was a good croissant, just too sweet for us. Almond Croissant ($4.50) - As with the raspberry croissant, the base croissant here was good with a nice smooth, skinless almond frangipane baked into the interior. The amount of frangipane was lacking - there was basically only a very small line that was almost imperceptible. On the top, the croissant was dusted with powdered sugar and slivered almonds. The exterior was once again on the cusp of being burnt in some areas. We didn't find the croissants at Niedlov's to be outstanding, but they were good, solid pastries. If we ever are in town again, we would probably stop by again to eat some of their sit-down brunch items.

Niedlov's is a must visit while in Chattanooga! It's a lovely bakery with plenty of inside and outside seating. It's counter serve, they have many different breads, oils, flowers, etc. for sale. Along with fresh baked goods, seasonal croissants, etc. We got the breakfast bagel sandwich with bacon - SO GOOD! The breakfast croissant with an omelette and creamy Boursin cheese was amazing as well! I would definitely get both again! I enjoyed my iced latte as well. Thank you!! Service was fast and everyone was super nice!

I adored this cute little quaint bakery during my trip here. Its located along the main street of the city. Theres a small parking lot and you get 2 hours free if you validate inside the bakery. If you get unlucky and find not spots, theres another parking lot further down and street parking. They had so much variety in pastries, including the cruffin! Everything looked so delicious but I was only able to try the chocolate croissant which was buttery and perfectly flaky.

3.75/5 Solid sandwiches and bread. I need to try more of their bread before making a final judgement but here's my take on the place: pumpkin cookie: fluffy and almost a cake cookie, great fall treat Marmalade croissant: good croissant and orange flavor but the icing made it too sweet imo Fried chicken sandwich: probably my favorite item, the chicken was really juicy and the bread was fluffy but perhaps a bit too weak to hold the sandwich together Goat cheese sandwich: not my favorite and a bit disappointing tbh, the jam was too tangy and the goat cheese was tangy so nothing balanced out. The bread was great though Fast service during a busy weekday lunch and plenty of patio seating!

Conveniently located in a bustling yet welcoming part of town. We tried it on a Saturday morning around 8am and it was already hopping. They offer both take out bakery plus sit down meals. Would love to try their outdoor patio when the weather warms up. The server working the counter was kind and the line moved quickly. Highly recommend the croissants (both sweet and savory - including raspberry!) and the huge cinnamon rolls. The croissant was classic French buttery and so flaky it made a huge mess when we ate it which is perfection in my book. The hot breakfast sandwiches coming out of the kitchen on their homemade bread looked great.

One of the best coffee shops I've been to for a start to the day. The mocha tastes like it's made with real chocolate, a nice bittersweet dark chocolate taste with great espresso. I'm also not normally a big breakfast sandwich guy, but the Fancy with sourdough hours the spot with s really nice crunch and just really well done avocados, eggs and bacon. The chicken biscuit is also so so so juicy and delicious. How the heck is that a chicken breast! Maybe it's because I'm a west coast guy having fried chicken in the south, but regardless, it was really memorable.

Our first time in Chattanooga and our waitress from across the street told us we HAD to come visit this lovely place for Saturday Brunch- so happy we listened! I couldn't even get a picture of the quiche because we dug in so fast! We love quiche and this was one of the best quiches we have had in ages! Highly recommend you add the daily quiche to your order. We also ordered the Pesto Ham Fig Jam sandwich, my boyfriend loved it! I think the focaccia was THE BEST part. All of their bread is made fresh and you can sure taste, feel and smell the difference! Not pictured but I also ordered the Chicken Biscuit, however I am not sure if it was my cup of tea. I thought the chicken was stellar, as well as the biscuit- however together I'm not sure it worked for me. I personally would have liked something else in between the chicken and the biscuit to keep it from tasting dry. I thought the honey was a good touch but I don't think it pulled it together, it felt as if it was missing something. None the less we enjoyed our meal and next time we are in Chattanooga we are grabbing some more baked goods and breads and then freezing it to last us!

AMAZING pastries. Great vibe. It's really cool to see everything being made in the shop. Nice staff fast service.

Came by Thanksgiving Eve to try out this place for the 1st time. Heard it was the best bakery/coffee shop in town. We are very impressed. Happened to be near closing time for the day, and they had lots of bread and tart they were trying to get rid of. We got several bags of bread and boxes of butter scotch tart for free! Very friendly staff and lovely little shop. I like that the drinks were cheaper than expected too. Will definitely swing by again!

One of the best bakeries ever!! We drove in from Atlanta and ate lunch on Friday at niedlov's, plus breakfast and lunch there as well on Saturday. Food is phenomenal and the atmosphere is so cute. Lines can get long but service is surprisingly fast! Everything is insanely good and we will most definitely be back again and again. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu!!

This place is amazing! I really enjoyed my food here, the bread is delicious and worth waiting in line for! Will not buy bread anywhere else but here from now on!

Food ***** Service ***** Location wish we had one in ATL Environment ***** Everything was

This is great local made food, the bread and bakery items are amazing worth going out of your way to get!! The service is outstanding and makes you feel like they have known you for years. It is a super busy place efficiently run.!! You will not be disappointed.

Tried to visit Niedlov's for lunch on a Saturday around Noon, but the line was out the door. Came back a little bit later and only waited a short time before ordering. They have a large variety of pastries to choose from -- buns, muffins, and more. And everything was very affordable!! Staff wasn't the warmest this visit however. (Note: The ParkMobile lot behind the bakery is $9+!)

Fresh baked pastries for the WIN! We stopped in for breakfast sandwiches as we were leaving Chattanooga and this is the place you have to go. There was a line but it moved quickly and the service was great! Nice comfortable environment where people were having breakfast as they worked. The buttery croissant and expertly done lattes!!!!!

Super packed so you had to make sure to find a seat when they open! Orange marmalade croissant was super sweet but really good with my plain iced coffee

Of all the bakeries I have ever been to this is the best. I so wish I lived in Chattanooga so I could eat here once a week. I stopped by on a Saturday with my mom and sister (girls trip to Chattanooga) on a recommendation from a friend. We waited in line to order and it went quickly. We ordered coffee, a sweet potato scone, lavender scone, BEC breakfast sandwich and the sausage eggs spelt biscuit. All were incredible. We sat outside on a chilly morning near the fire pit on the lovely greenery filled patio. We grabbed a load of bread to go and will certainly be back anytime we are in Chattanooga.

Delicious food and great atmosphere. Honestly some of the best avocado toast i have had in a long time, would very much recommend. Coffee was delicious as well. Very modern and clean vibe, I strongly encourage to sit outside as the foliage is outstanding.

Hands down, the best breakfast spot in Chattanooga! A long line going out the door is typically an indicator that a place is great. Niedlov's did not disappoint. Very busy and crowded dining room area, so we went outside to a cute covered area with lots of plants and little birds chirping. We got our coffee (refillable inside on your own) and a chocolate pastry to eat while waiting for our breakfast sandwiches. Good move as it acted as an appetizer until our food was brought out. I got "The Fancy," fried egg, bacon, chedder, avocado, red onion, arugula, and jalapeno aioli, all on a toasted 6 grain 4 seed, bread. Just awesome. Don't miss this spot if you are in town or anywhere near Chatt. Amazingly, the best deli spot to eat in town is right nextdoor at Main Street Meats. Niedlov's deserves 6 stars but I can only give 5.

Niedlovs is clearly a Chatt favorite judging by the line out the door on a Saturday morning. We had heard great things about this spot, so it was about time we tried it! My husband and I rode our bikes here with friends on a weekend morning, getting here around 10:30. We only had to wait in line for about 5 mins inside the cafe before ordering - but the line was out the door by the time we left! We amazingly were able to grab a seat for the 4 of us immediately and only had to wait about another 5-10 minutes for our food. I ordered the Fancy and the blackberry lemon scone - yum! and my husband got the sausage biscuit and the home fries - also yum! Can't wait to come back for more of their delicious food!

I was the beneficiary of a to-go order, so my review might have even been higher if I'd gotten to choose the options. The croissants were all perfectly flaky. The chocolate cruffin really seemed like a croissant to me. I'm not sure what the muffin part was. But the filling was great. I don't love chocolate, and while the filling was chocolatey, it was very airy. Great selection. As others have mentioned, the inside is small and it fills up on the weekends. Our friends were there at about 9 on a Saturday, and it was already too crowded to easily eat there for our group (hence the takeout). Definitely worthy of a stop when in town.

Amazing bakery! It can get quite busy, but the staff does a great job at getting everyone through the line quickly. Very cute atmosphere. They have a little outside patio to dine as well, and are very close to a little paid parking lot with plenty of spaces. Everything was fresh and well-prepared. The almond croissant was one of my favorites, but the cruffin was the showstopper. We also enjoyed the raspberry croissant and a lemon curd danish. I don't think you can go wrong in this place. 10/10!

As a bakery, this place offered a modestly sized but impressive display of bread and pastries. The rotating loaf options included what they call an oatmeal loaf, which tastes like it has oats mixed in as well as sprinkled on top, which is as heartily delicious as it sounds. The pastries offered intriguing but recognizable flavors, including a raspberry white chocolate scone that the people behind me seemed to wish I hadn't taken (it was the last one), some kind of buckwheat cookie, and a ginger cookie with actual ginger root. The cafe menu I found only a few things that I would have tried if I had a need, but it wasn't on the agenda for the day. So to speak only of the bakery, I thought it was likely the best quality of baked goods you'd likely find anywhere near here.

Super cute bakery!! Baked goods looked delicious! Bought a few for friends, but only tried one myself, the orange marmalade croissant. Croissant was buttery and flakey. Loved the touch of orange marmalade and candied orange on top. Delish! Got a chai latter based on the good reviews. Subbed almond milk, which maybe made it different than intended. A little watery and lacking. Would love to come back and try more things.

Simply amazing! This cozy mom and pop, bakery and coffee shop have a magic formula for success. There staff is well informed and attentive. The baked selections were incredibly varied and delicious! Though they have other items, I was only there for breakfast, so I tried a sampling of several things. Can I go to drink in the morning when I'm out like that is a latte. It was creamy, hot, and perfectly delicious. I also went ahead and got an egg sandwich on one of their biscuits. This was OnPoint and delicious. To go, I took a variety of pastries, since I had many hours of driving ahead of me, these treats were perfect! They had a thing called a Cruffin - This is a cross between a croissant and a muffin. Words simply cannot describe how amazingly delicious this was. I selected a cream filled one. I definitely highly recommend this. If you happen to be on the main street of Chattanooga, on the morning, you can't go wrong if you stop in here. Bonus: they had free parking.

There is no reservation. You order at the counter and then find a table. There is a line but it moves quickly. If you want coffee, bread, mugs, dessert, etc. get it while in line or else you'll have to get back in line later. Very busy and a tight squeeze. My husband and I both got the fancy sandwich. It was good. The latte was okay. The food there is good but other local restaurants use their bread and we've had it at other places served better. I would skip the savory meals here and go straight to the baked goods. That's where it's at.

This place is such a gem! I fell in love with the atmosphere immediately. The food is phenomenal. It's crafted perfectly. Prices not bad. Service was great even under pressure. Parking situation sucks, just heads up. Still worth it. Will be back any time I'm in town.

Wow wow wow wow. What an experience this place is. They probably don't have a single bad thing on the menu. Attention to detail is insane when it comes to their coffee. It's a must try if your in Chattanooga. It gets pretty crowded just due to the fact that it is popular. But the line seems to move fast. Bread like this is uncommon in TN so take something home.

This place was so great we went back both days we were in Chattanooga! The coffee was delicious, food was great and a super cute spot! I had the avocado toast with egg one day, which was delicious, probably the best I've had. And then they had this miso kale shitake skillet and it was one of the best things I've ever eaten, so good and unique and delicious! We all tried a couple pastries too which were all great! I highly recommend this place

Niedlov's is ALWAY my go-to in Chattanooga. I've been here multiple times now in the past two years and it's never let me down... I'm just glad my first bad experience here didn't deter me from coming back because I would have missed out on so much tasty bread and pastry. That being said, I had an awful first experience here the summer of 2021. It was SUPER triggering since the night before, I had JUST had an extremely uncomfortable and upsetting and similar experience at Clumpies on Market Street. I did not appreciate when the older lady working behind the counter was blatantly ignoring me and helping other people behind me in line. Like, AM I INVISIBLE? A second worker came out from the back and noticed me standing there dejectedly and asked if I had been helped. I was having trouble speaking because I was on the verge of tears at that point but told her no, the lady was only helping people behind me. The second worker apologized profusely on her behalf. The older lady didn't even give me a second glance. SERIOUSLY, people, am I invisible?? I finally got my order in with the second girl, paid, and was waiting on the side to pick up my hot food to go. They had given me my pastry already, so I was just waiting on my iced latte and sandwich. Time ticked by slowly but after a while, I noticed people who had ordered after me getting food and coffee before me. I finally went up to the counter and they seemed to have misplaced my order. They gave me a hot rose latte even though my receipt clearly showed Iced Latte, Rose. She apologized and remade it. So now about 20-25 minutes in, I had my coffee and pastry but alas no sandwich. I went back to the counter and inquired on the status. They looked around and seemed to have misplaced this order as well. So basically I didn't eat my lunch until I finally got back to my hotel down the street at 1:15, an hour after I placed the order. It was a nightmare. But at the end of the day, the California club sandwich was delicious, the cruffin was amazing and the iced rose latte hit the spot. But food and drink don't taste as good when there's a bitter taste in your mouth. BUT with that being said, all has been forgiven and forgotten, because I have been back at least several times since then and I also have not seen that older lady behind the counter again. I have also only dined in on the dog friendly patio now so you won't find me standing waiting for takeout ever again. My FAVORITES have been basically any pastry i can get my hand on (including the Swedish semlor bun, the lemon curd danish and of course the cruffin) and any hot sandwich like the California Club or the Reuben. I wasn't a HUGE fan of the Turkey & Goat Cheese but maybe it was just the goat cheese for me. Either way, the bread is always QUA-LI-TY and you can taste it distinctly in every bite of a sandwich. I haven't been to Niedlov's this year yet but literally only because I haven't been back to Chattanooga since 2022 (UGH I KNOW) but I plan on making a stop in town before the end of the year!

Met up with a friend on a road trip through Chattanooga and she recommended this spot for breakfast! It was spectacular! The menu was diverse and delicious. The coffee was fresh and wonderful. And the avocado toast was easily the BEST I had ever had! I often feel like avocado toast is overpriced at cafes for what you get, but I was very impressed with the price and what came on the avocado toast. It was delicious! While this place was busy, parking was easily accessible and the line moved swiftly and ample seating was available. Definitely recommend!

Beautiful bakery well located in Chattanooga with very efficient service. I came with a line out the door and was able to place and receive my order in probably 15 minutes.

This place is very cute, inside and out! (Though the outdoor seating is my favorite) amazing food, we tried their breakfast sandwich and their croissant. The sandwich was perfect, and the croissant was something to write home about. Their coffee was a bit watery for my taste but I am picky when it comes to coffee.

This charming bakery is everything you need and want. The line is long but worth it, so stick around! I typically get the avocado toast; the two pieces are plenty for me. The coffee is good and the ambiance is cozy and sunny from all the windows and natural light. Just lovely all around.

I was in the area and needed a quick bite so I ordered a couple of pastries and a chicken salad sandwich. The online system was east to navigate. So easy is the reason I had two pastries and not one. The almond croissant and lemon danish were quite good. I'm not a fan of lemon but decided to try it and I wasn't disappointed I did. I also saw that you can find their baked goods at Whole Foods. The sandwich was quite good. I would definitely return and order that again and check out other things they have on the menu. My order was ready earlier than I thought so that's always a plus.

Cute and small cafe. Can get pretty crowded so you might have to wait a while to find a seat. Regardless, the pastries are delicious, and super flakey. Coffee was good, but the pastries are definitely the star of the show!!

Such a cool place! The baked goods are amazing!! The brownie croissant is something I think I'll dream about from now on!
