From the moment the apple fritters and apple butter hit the table, we knew we were in for something special, they really set the tone for what turned out to be a great meal. Everything was served family-style, which only added to the comfort and experience. It was our first time, and we were genuinely surprised by how much we enjoyed the food across the board. Hearty, comforting, and exactly what we were hoping for on a holiday The servers were also very attentive and quick to take care of whatever need we had.

They had a free sample available of their cookie butter, which was absolutely delicious. The guy at the window said he just finished making a batch of caramel and gave a taste of that too and WOW! So good!! I ended up buying a jar of each cuz it was so good. It also inspired me to order a cookie butter milkshake, which was to die for. Customer service was fantastic. Absolutely worth the stop!

Definitely worth seeing if you can get on the list ahead of time. I got the milk parlor omelette with egg whites and it was so good (and really pretty too). I had cheese grits and a biscuit on the side--everything was super tasty. My husband got the Sam Stinnetts breakfast with the chop steak and wow... it was a lot of food. We definitely had leftovers. We came here years ago when they first opened and hadn't been back in a while, but after this, we won't wait so long next time. Great food, great service, and we were in and out pretty quick.

Our last day in Pigeon Forge and we decided to get breakfast on our way to the airport. Place was…read morepretty busy but we were sat down pretty fast. Service was good. First Son had the patty melt which was ok, other son had the burger and he liked it. The beef patties seemed to be frozen patties. I had the western omelette with steak fajitas but decided to have it in a burrito which was my mistake since I forgot that the tortilla was probably going to be store bought. The pancakes were ok not fluffy at all. The star of the show was the banana foster which was amazing! The hot chocolate was also really good too! Side note....Not sure where they get their ranch from but my kids eat everything with ranch and it was the best ranch we've ever had!

OMG! My wife and I…read moreboth ordered the smoke house burger, mine with fries and hers came with mashed sweet potato. We both finished our huge plates, barely! These burgers took us on a trip to flavor town and the sides were also very good! I ordered an IPA with mine that also hit the spot. They have several locally made beers. This place is fantastic! My wife ordered crème brûlée and loved it. They also had a gluten free menu she appreciated.

Wow--where do I even begin?…read more The Local Goat came up as one of the best restaurants in Pigeon Forge, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. We were looking for something delicious but also with a fun atmosphere, and this place delivered on both. Our waiter was super friendly and helped us decide on drinks, appetizers, and entrées. We started with the deviled eggs, cheese fondue, and whiskey chicken wings. For our main dishes, we ordered the lamb burger and the BGT burger. I had never tried a tzatziki-style burger before, and wow--it was completely unique and so delicious. Every bite was incredible. My husband and I are huge foodies, and we were visiting from Miami on our honeymoon. We both absolutely loved everything and will definitely be back the next time we're in Pigeon Forge. What really stood out is that so much of the food and sauces are made fresh and locally each day--you can truly taste the difference. Highly recommend!

She even offered to take our picture. I had the meatloaf meal, and it was delicious.

We shared the cheese curds, then I ordered the blue cheese burger with fries, and my boyfriend had the BFD burger with potato salad. Everything was so delicious! Burgers were juicy and full of toppings, bun was fresh and tasty. Fries (crinkle) were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside - perfect! The curds were also amazing - perfect ratio of cheese to breading, and the dip included was a thai chili situation which was unique and complemented them perfectly! They also brought out a bowl of water for our pup and were very welcoming to her and loved on her. Our server was attentive and kind. Overall a wonderful experience and recommend!

The wait is worth it if you get there before 8 am. The omelettes had a lot of filling and were very good. The buckwheat pancake while thin had a really nice texture. The pot roast eggs Benedict was good but the biscuit is so thick and soft and the meat is soft that it would be better with an English muffin for a texture factor. Place is cute log cabin vibes and very busy.

People are frustrating--especially on vacation. But, if you are irritated, do not assume that you won't be understood. I speak 3 languages well and understand more. The wait was awful, but to be expected. And our waitress was helpful and friendly--though not super attentive. She was busy, though, not lazy. The food was decent. Not earth shattering. Bottom line...if you want BIG food. And you have 1.5 hours to wait for food...it is a great tourist spot. The biscuits were light and fluffy. The cinnamon roll bread is well done...but the flavor was tame and the glaze was not good. My son loved the Aretha Frankenstein pancakes. However, if you want good food, there has to be a better spot.

While the food was good, the selection was just a little more narrow and specific than elsewhere. For instance instead of simple pancakes or French toast it was cinnamon pecan. The banana nut mini muffins were wonderful. Even the kids (who hate nuts in things) devoured them. Also, the tasty multi-berry jam is available in the store next door, and we bought some to take home. Overall, the food was delicious, and service was top notch as usual. But we will stick to lunch and dinner here.

My wife ordered the Reuben sandwich and really liked it. I ordered the beef stroganoff, and was pretty seriously disappointed. The sauce seemed like it had almost no sour cream, and it was relatively small, almost like a side dish. That being said, our friends enjoyed their food, but except for the Reuben, it did not seem like anything special. The service was very enthusiastic, but I still felt like we weren't getting adequate attention. Probably because of the closed door.
