Finding us on the Southside
Blue Orleans sits at the corner of Main and Market Streets on Chattanooga's Southside, directly across from the historic Chattanooga Choo Choo Hotel. The Southside district runs roughly between 12th and 20th streets and is one of the city's busiest dining and nightlife neighborhoods, so it's an easy walk from the Choo Choo, the Chattanooga Convention Center, Finley Stadium and the Main Street shops and galleries.
Parking
Street parking is available along Market and Main Streets and the surrounding blocks, with paid surface lots and garages nearby around the Choo Choo complex and the Convention Center. On busy weekend evenings allow a few extra minutes to find a space.
Take‑out and delivery
To‑go orders can be placed by phone at 423‑757‑0088. We recommend calling outside of the 5 pm to 8:30 pm rush on Friday and Saturday. Blue Orleans has also been available through local delivery services and Uber Eats — check the app for current availability.
Accessibility
If anyone in your party needs assistance or has questions about seating, please mention it when you call so we can be ready for you.
