Last month, we shared how to spend a day in St. Elmo, and today we’re back for part two. Ready for another adventure in one of the city’s oldest neighborhoods? Read on.

Morning

We’re sticking with the same morning fuel-up spots: Goodman Coffee Roasters and Wayward Pastry Co. But this time, we’re enticing you with menu items. Try Goodman’s peaches n’ cream latte or Wayward’s blackberry sage latte. Both spots have been advertising their pistachio + raspberry pastries. Here are option 1 and option 2. Which looks better? You decide. Or, try both and let us know your favorite.

Afternoon

Now that you have some energy, walk or hike one of St. Elmo’s trails, like Guild Trail or Glen Falls Trail. The latter might be tougher, but you’ll get to see a waterfall. If you’d rather work on wellness while staying still, check out the Chattanooga Salt Cavern for relaxation and salt therapy. Then, grab lunch at The Purple Daisy Picnic Cafe, a St. Elmo staple for more than 20 years. If you love Mediterranean food, check out The Hummus Bowl.

Night

When you’re ready for dinner or brews, you can’t go wrong with The Tap House. Editor Sarah here: They have a PB&J beer that literally tastes like the iconic sandwich. I’d go back just for that. But they also have great food. For dessert, stop by The Hot Chocolatier for a truffle, bonbon, or something else sweet. If you’re not ready to go home, head to The Woodshop for some live music.
