1209 North Central

 

The Time Warp Tearoom is located in a one story, brick Vernacular Commercial building that was part of the Happy Hollow businesses that flourished on this section of Central in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.  Happy Hollow was a gathering spot for surrounding residential neighborhoods, and is fondly remembered by residents and their children.  The interior of this building has been carefully rehabilitated and furnished with details from that era. Notice particularly the carefully designed metal ceiling, the booths, and the coffee bar.  Since it was established, the Time Warp has once again become a gathering spot for Old North Knoxville and Fourth & Gill residents, and for preservationists across the city, as well as those that enjoy its coffee, musical offerings, and the congeniality of its owners.
