The Purple Daisy Picnic Cafe — Restaurant in Chattanooga

Chattanooga native. Been here once before. Last night we went with our two kids because we were starving and this restaurant was close by. It took a good 10 minutes to be seen and to get waters. We ordered two barbeque plates with chicken and pork. 5 minutes later they arrived (yay!) but to my wife's dismay, the chicken was ice cold. She asked if it could be reheated and they did say they could put it on the grill again. Meanwhile the rest of the food was just really mediocre. If you had gathered some Bush's baked beans and deli items from Wal Mart and put them on the plate I would not have been able to tell the difference.

The chicken and pork had really no flavor and needed to be drenched in a sauce to have any flavor. To be honest, it was a plate full of flavorless calories, which in the moment was what we needed, but I've had barbeque from a dozen places in Chattanooga that is better.

The server did come back at one point to ask if everything was tasting good and I replied "It's ok." Just okay? she replied. "Yeah it's just okay". She did a little "PFF and an eye roll and walked off. Both my wife and I have worked in restaurants before for several years and have eaten snails in street stalls in Portugal for $4 and been to $200 plate dinners in Miami. The important thing is how you treat your customers and this was just a super mediocre place. It doesn't matter if it's a $5 sandwich or an expensive dinner. I'm guessing from the number of out of state cars in the parking lot they make their money from tourists. But for $11, I'd rather just go to Dos Bros and eat better food and get much...

My boyfriend picked this restaurant as a surprise for our one year anniversary. When we first pulled up I was surprised by his choice. It's a small eclectic looking building with a purple roof. However, I knew he must have picked it for a reason. There was seating available inside and outside the restaurant. You pick your own seating and we chose a back booth. The decorations are very eclectic and super fun, in my opinion. When I saw the menu I finally realized why he picked this restaurant, they won an award for banana pudding in 2015. I love banana pudding! We were both hopeful it still was worthy of the award title. My boyfriend ordered a burger and chips, I ordered a barbeque plate with coleslaw and potato salad, and we got a banana pudding to share. We had the banana pudding brought out first and it was AMAZING! It was extremely creamy, had a good flavor, and was very decadent. My boyfriend said it was the best banana pudding he has ever had in a restaurant. Absolutely still worthy of the award title! My boyfriend said his burger was average, nothing too special. I thought my food was quite tasty and I enjoyed the sweet barbeque sauce they offered at the table. My boyfriend was given a pickle spear on his plate which he let me eat. The waitress heard me saying how the pickle spear was one of the best I have had and she brought me out two more. The staff here were attentive, friendly, and so kind! Honestly the staff made the experience that much better. I would visit this restaurant again for the staff and the...
