Flying Squirrel
Your neighborhood bar and restaurant. Bring the fam!
Tonight’s the night! Swing by for our final service as Flying Squirrel. This is a bittersweet end to an era, which couldn’t have been so special without all of our amazing guests and staff over the years. Much love and thank you for everything 🙏
Now, let’s clear out this bar! Y’all have nearly sold us out of brewskis over the weekend, but we have a ton of fun spirits and wine to choose from, as well as our full dinner menu available. See you tonight for one last toast! 🥂
We’ve got a new spooky potion hitting the menu tonight 👻🎃
toil & trouble • four roses bourbon, sfumato rabarbaro, lemon, lime, strawberry simple syrup
🍂This Thursday 🍂
10% of all sales will be donated to benefit the 24th annual Grateful Gobbler 5k and Maclellan Shelter for Families.
It’s the best time of year to spread some love and we hope you’ll join us to dine out for a good cause. Can’t wait to see you there!
Fresh tonight!
Fall Caesar • romaine, kale, brussels, crouton, six-minute egg, pepitas, sesame, parmesan, ruby red mustard greens
- 😋 Let’s talk about Okonomiyaki 😋 -
This is one of our longest standing and most unique menu items! Inspired by the Japanese street food, meaning “grilled as you like it” - this savory pancake can be found with just about any toppings. We serve ours loaded up with cabbage, carrots, pork belly, green onion, sesame, pickled ginger, Japanese mayo, and katsuobushi flakes to create the most delicious umami bomb.
Join us for dinner tonight in support of Team Garrett Henson-Hink and Emilie of this year’s Dare to Dance! A portion of tonight’s sales will be given directly back to the Chattanooga Kidney Foundation, so let’s show up and show out! See y’all tonight 🪩🍽️
See you tomorrow for happy hour! 🍻

CONGRATULATIONS, SARAH!
(Our front line were so excited, they asked to write the copy for this post, how sweet is that!)
Sarah started at Flying Squirrel in 2021 as a server and immediately won over our hearts.
She was quickly promoted to our "ambassador of happiness," or more officially our Director of Hospitality. She is truly a Renaissance woman - she can do anything and everything. She's the epitome of poise and maintains it throughout any obstacle.
We couldn't be more excited to announce her new role as General Manager.
We look forward to seeing her flourish in this new position.
We ❤ you, Sarah!

Our Story
Since the day we opened our doors to the Southside, Flying Squirrel has been a fixture in the local community. The exposed trusses, giant cedar beams, and hand blown glass showcase Chattanooga’s local craftsmanship. Seasonal cocktails and the local-farm driven menu celebrate the natural beauty of Chattanooga. 20 ever-changing craft beer taps and an array of wines offer the best in both modern and classic styles. The Squirrel is your friendly neighborhood bar where the conversation is as fresh as the food and whether you’re a local or a visitor, you’ll always feel welcome.
We are 21+ with no exceptions besides Sunday brunch.
