Food Scene

Check this place out for wine tasting, cider tasting, or if you want to grab some food. Every meal is served with delicious fritters and apple julep. We recommend their fried chicken or their trio sampler. By far this is THE BEST FRIED CHICKEN we have had in our life!

This is a cute hidden tapas bar with a HUGE selection of wine. Come here if you want to have small plates or just want to experience good wine. There is no other place like this in the local area!! Definitely stop by if you are headed to the Arts and Crafts district or coming back from a hike!

I have no doubt had the best European crepes and American pancakes here. Definitely go at a slightly off time - either super early or outside standard lunch hours to avoid the crowds. This place is always packed but rightfully so!!

Steakhouse near a raging rushing river. Steaks and local caught trout combo is a must! Call ahead or ask to sit at the bar if the lines are too long.

This is the only English Pub in the area. Definitely off the beaten path with a great selection of beers. Lots of locals escape to this place! Located in the Gatlinburg Arts District, this is a great place to make a stop if you're done browsing art and handcraft shops nearby. If you want to try something different, try the Scotch Eggs.

Another scenic nature drive with some interesting points: the Sink, Meigs Fall. You can do this instead of the drive to Cades Cove if you have limited time. However, we highly encourage you to go to Cades Cove if possible.

This is a medium difficulty hike and will take 4 hours to get up and down so be prepared. The waterfall at the very end is stunning so it will be a day trip. Not recommended if you have kids with you. Check the NPS site to see if there are closures for trail work. https://www.nps.gov/grsm/planyourvisit/rainbow-falls-pyv.htm For other hikes: http://www.hikinginthesmokys.com/location.htm
