The South is known for many things with food being at the top of the list. Just like the great people who call the region home, southern food is a blend of cultures and traditions.

While being on top of Lookout Mountain feels worlds away, it’s just short ten-minute drive down the mountain to Chattanooga, full of spicy, decadent, comfort foods and places to shop.

We are thrilled to be on the cover of the November edition of Around Acworth Magazine. Owners, Miguel Morales and Mike Schroeder sat down to discuss how “Acworth’s Charm Allures Restaurant Owners.”

For many of our guests, hearing that we were planning to open a new 1885 Grill location in Acworth came as a surprise. With the original restaurant in the St. Elmo neighborhood and our second, 1885 Grill Ooltewah in Cambridge Square, venturing outside of the Chattanooga area came with many questions and uncertainties. Everyone we talk to asks, “Why Acworth?” For the 1885 family, that answer came easy.

The origins of are name are as simple as the early beginnings of the restaurant itself. In June 2013, Leslie and Miguel Morales followed their dream and opened a small restaurant at the foot of Lookout Mountain in the historic St. Elmo neighborhood of Chattanooga, Tennessee. Residents of the neighborhood themselves, the couple loved the laid back, welcoming atmosphere of the area- where porch sitting is more than activity, rather a way of life.
