Our local spot for good sandwiches, salads, pizza, and burgers and good beer on tap. Indoor and outdoor seating available--if the weather is nice, take your food upstairs outside on the deck! (The fried pickles are a particular favorite in our house.)

Our beloved campus coffee shop, named for legendary English professor Ted Stirling, whose portrait you can see in the entryway. Coffee (and specialty lattes and other coffee drinks), and a very tasty lunch menu full of locally sourced foods. This is a hopping place, so try to visit during off-peak hours.

T-S 9 AM - 8 PM
The market is where we go for organic, gluten-free, vegetarian, and other specialty ingredients. They have a little produce, ice cream, local cheeses and farm-fresh eggs. We are totally addicted to the little bags of dried mango they sell!
Mooney’s Market M-S 10 AM - 6 PM
The Crescent Cafe is a little vegetarian/vegan spot--basically a food truck--run out of a little camper in the back. Yummy smoothies and usually a salad and a wrap/sandwich on the daily menu. (Tip: it can take a bit for them to get your food--I will stop and order my wrap on my way to do an errand in Monteagle, and then pick it up in 15 min when I’m done. If the weather is nice, there are some sweet little tables in the shade where you can just wait with a book.)

The cafe is great for breakfast and lunch, and the Tavern for lunch and dinner with local beer on tap. They just redid their menu and the new sweet cream biscuits are a huge hit! (At the Cafe, try the hot chicken biscuit sandwich--the Music City Yard Bird--for a real treat. The menus for both places are up here, and you can place an order online for pickup: http://www.thebluechair.com/
