The Green Frog

I walked to the downtown location of The Green Frog this afternoon as things are calming down a little bit from the hectic move to Jackson, TN over the weekend. The Green Frog is in the downtown area of Jackson just across from the Madison County courthouse and describes itself as, "a sophisticated southern coffee café". The green frog has been instrumental in my move to Jackson. As my Dad and I were hunting for apartments over a month ago now we were nearly settled on one particular apartment that was close to where I will be working at Union University. Just to explore all the options, however, we came downtown to have lunch and see if there were any living options. We found the Green Frog and had their specialty a "Frickin Sandwich", fried pickle, grilled chicken and a special dill sauce on a croissant. It really is quite good! It was on this trip to The Green Frog that we saw an advertisement for the renovated downtown apartments that I now live in. We called the number for the apartments and my now landlord/property manager met us here at the Green Frog.



The Green Frog has Wi-Fi which is now a must for most coffee shops but what is special about it to me is that they are open until 11pm on every night except Sunday. This will prove to be a "great place" when I am have left Union and don't want to be in my apartment anymore but still have work to do. It has an assortment of coffees, teas, hot chocolate and baked goods. It will be a good place to come to enjoy something hot on a cool Tennessee evening. A friend of mine who works at Cup O Soul in Winter Park ironically recommended The Green Frog to me after I visited it for the first time.
