🥗 Summer has officially arrived on the Mountain, and we are cooling things off at The Blue Chair Tavern with three brand-new, refreshing summer salads!

Crafted with fresh ingredients and bold flavors, these are perfect for a light lunch or a breezy patio dinner.

☀️✨Here is what’s tossing up fresh in Sewanee:

🍓 Sewanee Berry & Goat Cheese Salad (V, GF) | Tender field greens topped with sweet summer strawberries, blueberries, creamy crumbled goat cheese, and toasted pecans. Tossed in our house-made honey-balsamic vinaigrette. It’s summer in a bowl!

The Mountain Caesar | Our lighter take on a classic. Crisp hearts of romaine, aged parmesan, and toasted croutons, all tossed in a bright, light lemon-parmesan dressing.

The Plateau Beet & Arugula Salad (V, GF) | -Peppery arugula paired with balsamic-roasted beets,, and feta cheese, finished with a bright, sunny citrus dressing.✨

Make it a meal! Bulk up your green bowl by adding your choice of grilled chicken, seared shrimp, or pan seared salmon.

Pair one with a cold drink and come kick off the season with us. See you at the Chair!

Craving a lunch that hits every flavor note? 😋

Meet The Tavern’s Smoked Turkey Salad.

We take tender, house-smoked turkey breast and toss it in our creamy, scratch-made basil aioli. It is the perfect balance of rich, smoky goodness and bright, herbaceous freshness.

Enjoy it as a crisp salad or stack it high with fresh tomato and romaine between thick slices of sourdough bread.

Pair it with a cold draft beer or a refreshing iced tea for the ultimate midday fuel up.

Stop by today and grab a table, or order ahead for a quick pickup. Your lunch break just got a massive upgrade. 🥪✨📍
