Go to Grocery Store - Edit
Love whole foods, clean and great produce selection! Friendly staff and fabulous upstairs and outdoor seating. Can get a little pricey but for vegan and organic produce it's worth it!

just another wfm - Edit
i miss greenlife, which was the store this used to be. they've turned it into another whole foods market, which is great for chattanooga, but greenlife was such a gem in the city! this wfm has a large selection of produce (more than the stores i've seen in atlanta) and a whole case of kombucha with flavors that are rarer to find elsewhere. staff here seem to be friendlier than most wfm.

Overall Impression Was Okay - Edit
Whole Foods in Chattanooga is a nice place with lots of Vegetarian/Vegan options, however the food itself wasn't anything to brag about.
Read moreI was pretty happy to see clearly marked Vegan options, but a lot of them in the self-serve buffet were either almost empty or dried-out from being in the heaters too long. Also many of the soups and tofu options were simply not tasty at all.
There were some good finds though, the mock chicken salad is INCREDIBLE!! I still can't believe it's not actually chicken, the texture is just like meat. Also they have a vegan pizza option where you can buy by the slice which was decent. The crust was great, but vegan cheese got a little too runny and pizza got kind of soggy. There also have a juice bar, but it is very expensive-around 5-6 dollars just for a 16 ounce cup.
The store in general has a nice vibe to it with an upstairs dining area complete with tables and couches. I saw a few students studying while snacking and it was very relaxed and quiet.
The only major complaint I had was I can across some fruit being placed right next to packaged raw meats in the same display cooler. As a vegan it just turned me off, and for health reasons they could have found a better place to keep the meat or at least put it in a separate display bin.
Overall, nice place, but way too expensive for what you get.
Pros: Vegan Options, Clean and Quiet, Friendly Staff
Cons: Very Expensive, Meat Placed Near Veggies, Overcooked/Dried Out Self-Serve Buffet

Vegan fast food - Edit
Chattanooga is pretty hip, and all the hippest market shoppers are here- maxing out their hipster-ness in family form or otherwise. This place is crazy busy but has all the best of standard vegan grocery items from fruits and fresh veggies to non-dairy milks to salad bar choices to whatever a market carries. Be happy it's here!
Read morePros: Salad bar, Produce, Juice bar

Greenlife Grocery - Edit
I was travelling through Chattanooga on a Sunday, when (sadly) Sluggo's North Vegetarian Cafe was not open, so I was glad that Happy Cow recommended this. It has everything a vegan would expect in a Whole Foods, but the service was particularly nice (they were happy to run a stiff artisanal bread through the auto-slicer), and the location was great too (withing walking distance to a park along the Tennessee river).

Awesome "Green" area! - Edit
I love this place! It's like your normal Whole Foods...with the exception of the liquor license, and the convenience of drinking a beer outside on a beautiful day, with a plate of veggie food from the hot bar. Sounds perfect to me! My sister and I got made-to-order vegan sandwiches at the deli, and we were both very happy. The building is all eco-friendly/Green building standards. Lots of cool shops nearby. I would recommend this to anyone!
Read morePros: Awesome food, Great area, Like-minded people
Cons: you get what you pay for!

Very Nice - Edit
I stopped here during a road trip [my friend said this is the best place in Chattanooga] to get a sandwich. I ordered a custom [Vegan] sandwich and a soy latte; both were very good. Overall, this store looked like a Whole Foods and carried almost everything Whole Foods does. Not only was this store nice, but Chattanooga is beautiful! If you're driving through here, stop for an hour or two and eat your lunch by the river.
