Frazier Avenue, located beside Coolidge Park on the north side of the river, is a newly revitalized area that is booming with activity. Ten years ago, Frazier was mostly empty warehouses and other industrial sites. Today, it is one of the best local places in Chattanooga to shop, dine, and hang out with friends. Along with restaurants, coffeehouses, and art galleries, Frazier is full of specialty stores that sell a mix of books, toys, clothing, jewelry, souvenirs, household items, and imported goods. You can easily spend a whole day looking through all the stores, eating meals, having coffee or alcoholic drinks, and walking through the park and on Walnut Street bridge.
My favorite, most recommended stores are Earth Elements, New Moon Gallery, the Grapevine, Blue Skies, and A Novel Idea. There is the Mudpie, a coffeehouse/soup and sandwich shop, Clumpies Ice Cream Co., the Northshore Grille, and North Chatt Cat. Rock Creek Outfitters and ChooChoo Bait and Tackle are located here, as well as a gourmet bakery for dogs, Bone Appetit. The Chattanooga Pepper Co. has one of the largest varieties of hotsauces outside New Orleans, as well as everything imaginable one would need to prepare hot and spicy foods with. There are counter-culture shops here, as well as the city's first cybercafe, called CyberLan, where one can play against friends and strangers in almost any videogame you want. Whether you want to shop, dine out, or have fun, Frazier is the hot place in Chattanooga.
Many of the stores and eateries on the park-side of Frazier Avenue have front entrances on the street and rear entrances by the park. However, a few only have one or the other, so beware. If you do not walk on the street in front and around the corner on market street as well as behind the street beside the park, you are likely to miss a few stores. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

Rugina's has a large selection of African artwork all handmade by natives and imported into the U.S. They help support the livelihood of families and villages in some of the poorest countries on Earth. Here you can find jewelry, wooden masks and sculptures, paintings, ceramics, and much more. Some of the larger objects are quite expensive, but there are plenty of smaller pieces within most people's budgets. You can also try for free and buy Tanzanian coffee grown on a farm begun by Jackie Robinson's son, David. A 12 ounce bag is $9.50, which is well worth it not only for its great taste, but also because it helps Tanzanians make a decent living for themselves. There is a lot to see in this small store, especially for those who like knowing about and collecting from other cultures. Leave a Comment Theme: ArtDirections: Rugina's is located on Market Street next to the Choo Choo inside Shuttle Park South, which is the big parking garage adjacent to it. It is on the ground floor facing the Choo Choo.

Chattanooga converted authentic railroad warehouses into lovely boutiques. Brass railings, wood floors, some skylights, all create a pretty scene.
They claim to be factory outlet stores.
*I* went to look around.
*I* don't shop there, but prices are usually lower than regular mall store prices. Leave a Comment Theme: Department StoreAddress: 1110 Market StPhone: (423) 267-1111

 Near the convention
center at dusk by grishaV1
If you are looking for local made goods, like soap or artwork, wood carving, quilts, produce of the season, there are many vendors and artisans. You can even watch them work at their crafts! You have some items shipped in from around the US, foods and merchandise but most is from people around Tennesse, to help support local economy, get the freshest that you can to be more healthy, and to help the local farmers who is more difficulties competing against big change stores like Wal-mart. You won-t find me at Wal-Mart, sure it helps some things I guess, but I am not a Wal-mart kind of person. Always surprises to me to see so many cars and people at such stores, but the one Wal-mart in Berlin is almost always crowded also, must have a special attraction. Anyway----back to the Market on Southside :-)
Weekend of the 14th, there was a PIGSKIN PIGOUT!BBQ chefs having a cook-off to help the Kidney Foundation of Greater Chattanooga. I don´t eat meats, but its a worthy case so I donated to help where I could. It smelled terrific though! I did buy some nice fresh breads.
Live music is also featured here, can get a bit to eat while walking or stop to sit outside a near cafés for a small meal and drink. This weekend Ducktown Station was playing, Blue Ridge Grass and Kym Tuvin, mostly bluegrass music. Not everyone likes it but when you are walking around the beautiful weather, blue skies over Tennessee, it fits just perfectly!
Upcoming events:
Celtic Harvest on 21 November,Ólta, a traditional Celtic band will be playing then.
The Winter Roast Coffee Festival on 12 December. That is the last big event before Christmas, Sweet Georgia Sound will be playing.
Whatever you want :-) Leave a Comment Theme: Local CraftDirections: Whether you come in from Atlanta or other cities in Tennessee, the exit you take is Downtown Chattanooga, then to Main Street then on to Carter Street. Its very near the stadium (which you can see from the highway) and the convention center.Website: http://www.chattanoogamarket.com/index.html

 Inside the wonderful Moon :-) by grishaV1
All kinds of wind chimes, spritual and cultural, glass beads, stones, incense, new age music, clothing make from natural fibers and dyes, books, cards, jewelry and so much beautiful artwork! I could spend hours in it alone. Even if you say youu just look for a few minutes, you will find later you been inside a long time because its crammed full of interesting artifacts. Also in the back corner of the shop you will find the info board most places like these have. Announcing upcoming events that have to do with cultural, esoteric, self-improvement type events. Also I noticed, since Chattanooga is not so far from bigger Atlanta, that a lot of info was also for things happening in that city. As well on the board you can find cards of people who provide certain services, portrait artists, day spas, massage, tarot reading.
Prices are reasonable depending on what you are buying. Local good are less expensive than imported art, clothing, and jewelry for example. Leave a Comment Theme: OtherDirections: 36 Frazier Avenue, Chattanooga, TN 37405 423-265-6321

The Monkey Tree is downtown, and rather a speciality/antique shop. Lovely junk! This kind of places I love, just odds and ends all kinds of things, Indian trunks coming from Britain, Germany toys for children, you have to shift through a lot of it, but you find unique stuff. I would say its mostly home furnishings, which I have no space to transport back home, but I saw so much that would add a special touch of color or depth to your home. Top to bottom, its fascinating.
Open Hours: 9:30am-6pm Mon-Sat
Depends on what you are buying, most is rather reasonable, but with unique stuff like this....well, you buy it is you like and can afford, yes? :-) Leave a Comment Theme: AntiquesDirections: 334 Market St Chattanooga, TN 37402-1223 Phone: +1 423 265 6333
