    Dillinger. Bird of paradise.
    Jade C.

    First timers here and we LOVED it. Honestly 100% worth it for a break from the main hustle and bustle. The Dillinger, the Capone, and the bird of paradise were to die for! It's dimly lit but it helps set the mood! Our waiter was fantastic and we will definitely come back if we're ever in town again!!

    Cozy little speak tucked behind the Syndicate Coffee shop. The coffee shop it self is pretty impressive and looking to grab an espresso next visit. Nailed the speakeasy vibes with the secret refrigerator entrance which transports you back to the prohibition style vibes. Awesome curated crafted cocktail selection with great descriptions of what you'll be getting. For the spirit lovers the selection is too notch and decently priced. Whiskey lovers will enjoy their extensive and impressive selections. Great spot for a little night cap and change of pace when on the Gatlinburg strip.

    Great speakeasy, delicious drinks and a good quiet spot with casual music. Went upon arrival and had to go back before we left

    This place is a great addition to downtown Gatlinburg. I love the speakeasy theme and ambiance was perfect. The staff were really friendly as well. The drinks were pricy, but expected given the type of venue and location. I usually am not a fan of overdone/fancy drinks, but I found one that sounded good and it wasn't bad! They had some creative presentations for the drinks which the whole group enjoyed! Again, I really enjoyed the ambiance and new experience more than anything and would recommend trying this place out!

    I found a speakeasy! Go to Elk Plaza and the coffee shop. Walk through the freezer and you will find an excellent little bar. It's a throwback to the 1920s. The drinks are made right by pros. I was very impressed. The staff was wonderful and welcoming. Absolutely, check this place out and have a drink.

    The Alibi is great. Very speakeasy style. The bartenders are very knowledgeable. They have amazing drinks. Very photogenic drinks. The food is great too. Plated well. The vibe is very old school rich. You do NOT have to dress up if you don't want too. People go in however they are dress. The staff is friendly and make your night fun.

    Martini service for two.

    We've been to Alibi in Gatlinburg three times now, and it has been excellent every single visit. Hannah was our bartender, and while the drinks on the menu were fantastic, the off menu cocktails she made for us were some of the best we've ever had anywhere. You can tell she really knows her craft. If there's a line, don't let it scare you off. It's absolutely worth the wait.

    This place is amazing! The ambiance, drinks, and service could not be better. Highly recommend getting there at opening time because it is small and intimate.

    Only place to get a real drink in town as far as I can tell. Nice classy ambience, great selection of spirits and our bartender was great.

    1000000/10 I'm…read morehonestly devastated we can't come back tonight before we leave to go back home tomorrow. They are closed tonight. However, our dinner last night was incredible! You need reservations; if you don't have them, you risk getting turned away. It's a husband and wife running the entire place. No extra help. They want you to stay and relax and enjoy everything. We only stayed 90 minutes and they tried to get us to stay longer. Like all the reviews say, it's a very European experience. We've never experienced anything like it. We started with an old fashioned and a margarita from the daily cocktail menu. Olga welcomed us with a hug and took us to our table. She didn't stay out long because she is the chef! But it was still cool to interact with her in the beginning. Both her and her husband made us feel like family. It started pouring and he walked outside with an umbrella and held it for 2 girls at the bar. I thought that was super sweet. We ordered the salmon roe caviar and it was divine. Our second course was the oyster flatbread and I ended up being sad I was sharing it. It was that good!!!!! We were pretty full at this point after a couple more drinks. They were really busy too, so we decided to go ahead and get the check. It started raining right after we got our check, so we ended up getting one more drink to wait it out. We had the best time and can't wait to come back!

    Simply stated, I cannot give this place enough stars. My girlfriend and I will talk about the Red…read moreOak Bistro - and our time spent there - for years to come. While we were walking the Arts and Crafts Loop near Gatlinburg (I HIGHLY recommend this as well), we noticed this wonderful-looking restaurant nestled away in the green forested hills across the street. We opted to come back here for dinner on our last night in the Great Smokey Mountains. Sooooo glad we did! Owned and operated by a European couple, the Red Oak has the ambiance of a quaint European restaurant that one would find tucked away in the Alps. While the inside atmosphere is wonderful, we chose to sit outside to enjoy the very quiet and beautiful forested hills of Gatlinburg. Service was incredible and very European - they told us they would not bother us unless we asked for something and that the table was ours for the evening. Yep...we stayed there for three hours, sipping our wine and trying various dishes of exquisite flavor. I'd like to say try this or try that, but to be honest: all the dishes we tried were absolutely phenomenal. We cannot wait to try this place again!

    THis one has a story behind it. Got invited to a drum circle in Gatrlinburg by my girlfriend's son…read more We went out that morning to see Cades Cover (big mistake - it was Memorial Day) and swung back around through Townsend (stopped at Mountain Man to have a craft brew on the way). Knowing we were going up to the arts district, I looked for a place to meet them before the circle and saw there was a Celtic Pub. Only that was the spot where the drum circle was. And, to my surprise, it is the same owner as the Fox & Parrot Tavern in Gatlinburg, one of my favorite English pubs (and currently closed do to a feud with the US government - hope that gets fixed). The place is definitely British country feeling. Very nice tap list, including both local brews and standard UK brews. Heavy wood feeling with a very nice deck outside, which includes some spots under cover (which was important as it rained on the circle and people had to duck in). There is nothing elegant about the place or the food. But that is its charm. The fish & chips were on point, esp. with the malt vinegar. Shepherd's Pie a bit salty for my tastes, but not to the salt lick level. Also came with chips. As for the drum circle, if you are reading this in June 2026, that is every Monday at 6-8 PM through the end of the month. I got some great drone footage of the circle, which I added to this review.

    Probably one of my favorite restaurants in the area, Rampant Lion is clearly a family-run business…read morethat focuses on making social connections over quick get-food-and-go. It's pretty cool. I would never come here if I was in a hurry, but if you have 2+ hours to eat and want good food in a storied place with staff who will treat you like friends, you're going to love the Rampant Lion. NOTES: -In rural TN, it should not surprise you, but be aware that they have Trump displays in the restaurant. -The restrooms are single stall and accessed from outdoor. They're indoor restrooms - just the door to access them is on the outside. (No porta potties) They're solidly clean - just make sure to pack clothing that works for the temperature outside because you might be dipping outside a few times. -Parking lot is small and gravel. Relatively easy to get in and out of though. -Amazing gin selection with staff that *clearly* knows their gins. -Adorable photos of the owners on slideshow of their trip to Europe on the wall. It's adorably and clearly a couple who was on a good vacation. We've had a good chunk of their menu at this point. Pretzels: Delicious beer chese AND delicious pretzels. Quite a bit of food with this too. Bread, Oil, & Vinegar: Wasn't super fond of this one. A ton of oil in a bowl made it hard to get the right oil-to-vinegar ratio. Chicken Pie: Deliciously breaded with super-tasty french fries too. Served piping hot, so it took a bit to be able to eat it without burning myself but a wait well-made. Reuben: Partner absolutely loved it and said the bread was the absolute perfect consistency. SO much meat in there too (though he said it could use a bit of extra dressing). Bubbles and Squeak: Delicious. Just delicious. Zero notes, you should eat it. Beanie Weenies: Home-made right in the restaurant! My favorite thing on the menu. Super savory, semi-healthy (beans...at least?), and served super warm. Comfort food at its finest. Menu in-restaurant was different than online one on a few things.
