Restaurateurs Miguel Morales, Charlie Loomis and Dustin Choate opened 1885 Grille in St. Elmo two years ago and have been quite successful, so they are planning to open a second eatery in June.

The Feed Co. Table & Tavern is set to open in the Craftworks building on West Main Street. It will offer a menu of Southern-based, locally sourced items.

“We feel like it’s becoming an incredible destination in Chattanooga with local restaurants, coffee shops, galleries and a farmer’s market,” Morales says. “In the future, we see it as a place where people can come and park, then walk and find any kind of food they want.”
