Our food was delicious! Line was long, but considering how great the food was. No problem! Best burgers, fries and shakes in the E. Tenn.

This business was opened in 2008 but the building looks like it's from a much earlier time, the…read morefood here was good, the service was exceptional. I was amazed at how fast the line moved and although the seating is limited to a few tables inside and a few more under an awning in front of the restaurant we were able to find a seat even though we ordered our food for take out thinking we'd be eating in the park but we got lucky. You order at the counter and they give you a number placard and find you when your made to order food is ready. Being this was our first time here we were clueless of the protocol but the staff is ready to help with any questions you have. We ordered burgers and shared an order of crinkle fries and both of us got a self-serve fountain drink. This is definitely a local's favorite and boy did they pack this place at noon, only to be out done by their take out orders, this kitchen can put out lots of food so the wait time is very manageable. The burgers were fresh and well put together and delicious, we only realized you have to ask for pickles whether or not you order the burgers all the way after we placed our order so they brought out a small cup full and they definitely are a must. The crinkle fries were crispy and delicious and perfect with a few sprinkles of their signature "dust". The staff and food definitely exceeded our expectations and I'd eat here again just to try a few more of their offering - this is a wonderful small town locally owned business...

I have never had anything that was not fantastic. They are always packed and a line of people, but…read morethey move everyone in and out. There is extra parking across the street. A+ Plus!

An old fashioned diner...right here in Boones Creek. I've lived here all my life, pretty much, and…read morenever made it in here. I can guarantee that my Dad probably has...lots of old timers in here. The most basic of good country food...biscuits and gravy were some of the best that I've had in the area. The prices can't be beat!! Eat Local!!!

Located along Kingsport Highway, it's pretty easy to spot as long you know about where it is. The…read moreolder white building is set back a bit from the road and has the name in a light blue along the front. Parking is a paved lot but there really aren't any marked spaces. There is room adjacent to the building and more along the highway. I did not notice any specific handicapped spaces but the paved lot and no steps makes travel and entry fairly easy. We were greeted as we walked in and told to find a seat anywhere. Seating is a mix of booths and tables. We selected a small table on the other side of a half wall that splits the seating area into two parts. Our waitress dropped off menus and took our drink order right away. The drinks came back quickly and we asked for a few more minutes to look through the fairly large menu. After a couple more minutes, our waitress came by without being reminded and took our order. The food took a good 20 minutes to arrive. A few people who arrived after us got their orders before us so I don't know if there was a mix up in the kitchen or what. The food was hot when brought to the table, so for whatever reason ours just took longer. The Sunrise breakfast includes two eggs, a meat choice, and either biscuit or toast. The eggs and bacon were cooked as requested, and the biscuit was light and fluffy. My dining partner asked for jelly and was brought small cups of butter and jelly. There was plenty to enjoy on the biscuit without having to open the typical little jelly containers. The country breakfast included two eggs, a meat choice, and a biscuit and gravy. The eggs were cooked as requested. The sausage patty was done but not overdone. The biscuit was excellent, and the sausage gravy seems to be made from real fat so it has a ton of flavor. There was not a lot of sausage pieces, but certainly enough to notice. The flavor was outstanding and was the highlight of the meal. Blue Gills is an excellent choice for breakfast, and I am now looking forward to trying their lunch menu. There are a couple burgers that caught my eye.
