This delightfully rustic, charming cafe at the Lookout Mountain Retreat is the perfect spot for a road-trip stop. Some of the produce is sourced from the on-site veggie garden, and the menu might include avocado smash or triple-stack pancakes for breakfast, and steak sandwich or jerk salmon for lunch. There's an outdoor terrace with expansive mountain views.
