Upstairs
Clif C.

Don't miss this gem lucked back in a beautiful rustic shopping village! The music takes you in along with the decor and lighting. If you want the small bar experience stay downstairs. If you want the Celtic inn, go upstairs and they will bring your food up for you! The banger burger is award winning votes best in Gatlinburg and I can see why. The beef patties are seasoned well, tender and delicious along with the potato bun. The banger burger also has sliced "bangers" which are seasoned sausage, mashed potatoes and grilled onions! While great together, I chose to steal the bangers out and eat them alone as a side. It's perfect if you want the comfort of "bangers and mash" but want to try an amazing burger too. The fries are plentiful and guarantee you will be full after eating just half of this entree. The bartender and server is attentive and took good care of people as they walked in. Don't miss one the tip advisors top 10 eats in Gatlinburg!

In back corner of The Village. 2 floors, small bar downstairs and tables above. Serve food as well.

Fish and chips
Oliver T.

Only complaint is they don't explain how things work when you order. But we eventually figured it out. You order at the bar, then you wait upstairs and then they'll bring the food to you in a to-go container, which you can either eat there or take it with you. It's a small quaint place upstairs with several tables. It was a little bit of a wait for the food, but didn't mind being able to rest after running around Gatlinburg. Ordered the fish and chips and it was tasty and pretty good portion size.

Now that's a Guinness!
Sean H.

Fantastic service; they even recommended another restaurant for the UK food they don't serve. Too kind. Great pub vibe. It's a nice, cozy space with big tables. We liked the tables by the window upstairs. Spectacular streak. Good Guinness. The Banger Burger was indeed a banger. So good! And get some Beer Cheese too; so so so good! We shall return.

Pint of Guinness with cool stamp!
Tina H.

Delicious and so much food! I had a pint of Guinness and the Celtic Spice bag. Definitely shareable portions but a fantastic blend of chicken strips, grilled onions, peppers and "chips"! The bartender was super nice and they had a stamp in my foam! So cute! No wait staff but good eats.

This place is a great find if you get off the beaten path. Must visit if you love a good pub and a tall pint of Guin

Worst fish and chips I have ever had
Jonathon B.

Read online this place had the best burgers in Gatlinburg. My son had one, it was OK. But I made the mistake of ordering the fish and chips. GROSS. An Irish bar is supposed to do this dish well. It's a staple of Irish cuisine. But they didn't even try. The fish was tough because they didn't cook the frozen fillets all the way through. The batter fell right off because frozen fillets and batter doesn't mix well. I do NOT recommend this place. The burgers are not good enough to make up for this nonsens

We were excited to try because of great reviews and this place did not disappoint us. What I like most is the quality matches the price, especially for such a location that curious tourists are abundant. Although burgers are not my thing, I tried my husband's beer burger and it was awesome. The sausage was well done with the taste and texture. And the beer, look at the picture lol. Who can resist that glass of beer? I love my steak. Not the best beef, of course with that price, but not bad. The uniqueness of the pub with decorations is so pleasant to sit and have fun and memorable time with our loved ones. The bartender was super helpful too. It was a perfect experience for us. Will come back, for sure

Beer Cheese (amazing)
Kerri B.

Hidden away in Village Shoppes is a nice little pub.  They have a nice selection of beers, burgers, fish & chips, and more!  They have outdoor seating, upstairs seating, and if you're lucky, you can sit at the bar upon entering.  It's a very warm chill vibe, and they are very welcoming and laid back. The food is given to you in to-go boxes(which I think is genius) and everything was cooked perfectly.  We had the fish & chips (thick and cooked nicely) and the AWARD WINNING Banger Burger (Guinness-marinated Sausages, sweet grilled Onions, Irish yellow Cheddar and a thick spread of fresh Mashed Potatoes), and a delicious pumpkin beer! Make sure to get beer cheese for dipping, that sauce was money.

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.

The moment we walked in and saw the Red Wings jerseys, I had a feeling we were in the right place--and we were. The bourbon selection is outstanding, the wings and pretzel appetizer were excellent, and the fish and chips were hands down the best I've ever had. My daughter ordered the filet, and it was a true filet cooked perfectly. To top it all off, the prices were incredibly reasonable. We had appetizers, dinner, and several bourbons, and our bill was actually lower than what we paid the night before at another restaurant that wasn't even close in quality or service. Thank you for ending our Smoky Mountains vacation on such a high note!

An authentic British pub that definitely feels like a go-to spot for a lot of the locals. You'll…read moreavoid a lot of the tourist traffic here with its unique vibe, and you'll come away with a memory of "that cute British pub" when it's all over. NOTES: -This place is run on bare bones staff. I'd guess maybe two cooks and the single server. It is not a place to come if you need quick service or quick food. They're very friendly (even if you're not a local!), but definitely come when you have a lot of extra time. -This place is not accessible in the slightest. You'll need to go up two flights of very steep stairs to make it to the front door. The stairs are on the old side, and I was concerned about one breaking. There is no elevator. -The parking lot is relatively small and shared with a nearby Urgent Care. It's gravel and grass, and people mostly made their "own" spot where they wanted. As this made for a haphazard parking lot with small margins for cars, I wouldn't let a newer driver park here. PROS: -Lots of unique British dishes. We've never seen somewhere serving Bubbles and Squeak and lots of other dishes. If you're not familiar with niche British dishes, you'll probably have to pull out your cell phone to figure out what some of this stuff is - and that's really fun. -Food is really good. It tastes like food-your-mom-would-make instead of gourmet takes on these dishes. It has a really authentic, small business vibe to it. -Unique beers on tap too. You aren't going to find Bud Light or Miller Lite on tap here. All of their beers are unique pub fare. They do offer some of the American favorites in a can/bottle, but this is a great excuse to try beers you wouldn't normally have access too. -Despite the older age of the building, the bathrooms are very modern and very clean. Most gas station bathrooms are in worse shape than the ones here. CONS: -It's definitely a small, "small margins" business, and all of the cons that go along with that. Food took awhile, upcharge for using a credit card, non-focal dishes may have been frozen/reheated/canned, and parking was difficult. That all being said, we're looking to come back again, and the atmosphere (and the taste of their unique star dishes) make it one of those places you'll actually talk about when you're done with your trip instead of forgetting that morning you simply went to Denny's to scarf down pancakes.

Good choices. Limited food but for tourist area very nice vibe…read more Drinks high though and no specials I believe it will be better

As for the food, it was honestly pretty underwhelming considering how hyped this place is. The crab dip was okay, nothing memorable. The steak and lobster was disappointing- the lobster had that soft texture that overcooked or not-so-fresh crawfish can have. The baked shrimp wasn't bad, but definitely not something I'd order again. Strawberry shortcake was decent enough. Ironically, the bread basket ended up being my favorite part of the meal-absolutely delicious. The service, however, was genuinely warm and hospitable. It was a bit slow, but the staff was kind, friendly, and personable enough that it made up for it. That was honestly the highlight of the experience. Was I excited to try this place because of all the hype? Absolutely. Would I personally recommend it? Probably not.

When you want to get drunk, but you also need your drink to look electric blue and taste like raspberry, you come here. I'm not the biggest fan of sweet drinks in general, and especially not sweet alcohol. But I wasn't about to pass up an opportunity to taste some of Old Forge Distillery's moonshine and gin. They also make vodka, whiskey and rum. The gin was good! It doesn't taste like traditional gin, because they age it in bourbon barrels, so it has a little bit of a caramel taste to it. (In my opinion.) The moonshine and the cream liqueurs are where you will find the crazy flavors. I think my favorite was the coffee moonshine, which tastes like a wonderfully spiked black coffee. Samples are plentiful. The bartender told us which ones were crowd favorites, and also recommended some that I would not have picked myself. They also have a huge gift shop with lots of tchotchkes, plus bottles of their goods to take home with you.
