1:30 pm on a Tuesday Party of 4. Cold wet rainy day. We…read morechose to sit inside despite there being two outdoor spaces to enjoy. (Upstairs balcony and lower courtyard). We were sat immediately. And given all the time we needed to browse the menu. This was my first visit and the menu is extensive. By 1:45 we had made our decisions and ordered. Crawfish poboy $12. Tender fried crawfish on a hogie bun with remoulade. It was massive. I tried to eat it all but couldn't . So good. The Jack Daniels sirloin looked delicious ($23) served with a potato. The men at the table both ordered that. And ate everything. No leftovers. The last person to order was the only person who ordered from the lunch menu . Served from 11-3. Offers about a dozen options including the Shrimp and grits ($11) The food arrived in about 18 minutes. And we were paying the bill 25 minutes later. Very causal, un rushed visit. I would love to go back!! In my humble opinion 4.5 stars

The staff was completely unwilling to help find a solution. I suggested several simple options--digital gift card, emailing proof of purchase, or even mailing it out. Nope. They also couldn't even confirm whether I could just pay for it when my family comes in. Seriously? Pretty shocking level of customer service for someone literally trying to give them business. I'll be recommending my family take their money somewhere else.

I've dined at The Putnam Room dozens of times over the three years I've lived in Cookeville --…read morebirthdays, happy hours, family dinners and everything in between. The atmosphere and food were always top notch. Sadly, that has declined in recent months. Tonight we waited 45 minutes for our meal. Our waitress was kind and wanted to be helpful but she was understaffed and seemed to be servicing the entire restaurant, so we had to flag her down to order, to pay, and to politely inquire about our food after we passed the half hour mark. We each ordered the house salad with chicken. The Putnam Room used to have the best salads, but even that has declined. It was a truly disappointing dining experience and, while I do think our waitress did her best, an apology or small price adjustment would have been warranted given the delays and subpar service we experienced. At this point, I would not return. I want better for The Putnam Room and better for Cookeville!

What an interesting spot for food! This was my first time at a GC and I wasn't really sure what to…read moreexpect. I will say checking out first kind of threw me off. I would call it the most American of American buffets. It was packed even for 3:30! I really try to get pictures without anyone in them but that was pretty tricky here. They had: salad/fruit bar, baked tater bar, BBQ section, taco and chipotle area, and I think two others. Their desert bar was pretty impressive: waffles, cheesecake, soft serve and much more. Taste of the food was a bit better than what you would expect from a buffet. Definitely worth the price of $13/adult! This particular site was very senior-friendly, which was nice to see.

The server was attentive and polite, and quick to check on us and refill our drinks. I started with a salad with lots of toppings. I seriously need to remember to get a plate instead of a bowl because I always run out of room... After the salad bar came the main dishes, Cajun Pasta, Pot Roast, Green Beans, Okra, Cheeseburger, Beans & Cornbread, Fried Chicken, Hot Wings, Mashed Potatoes, Macaroni and Cheese... The list goes on and on. Banana pudding, chocolate chip cookie and chocolate covered marshmallow for dessert... My friend and I went for the early dinner and for him and I it was less than $30.00. Not bad for a meal and we are stuffed... Definitely worth going back again.

Cookeville is such a small, quaint, and friendly town with such genuine charm to it. My husband and I visit his mimi every year and as part of our tradition, we select a restaurant in town to eat at to give her a break from cooking us meals. This year we chose Spankies! We were greeted by warm, welcoming faces, and the restaurant's ambiance felt comfortable and inviting. We ordered quite a variety from the menu! And every single dish, from the starters, to the entrées, to the sides were each absolutely delicious! You cannot go wrong with any order. 5 stars for a lovely experience!

Stopped by on a Sunday with friends before heading home. We…read morewere looking for a local spot with a variety of options for our group of four, and this place fit the bill. The menu had something for everyone--from salads to burgers and classic bar food. The tostada salad was a hit I forgot to take a picture. I have mixed feelings about the visit. While the food was a hit (everyone enjoyed their orders), the service was a bit slow. It took a while after being seated, to place our orders, and finally get our food. Our server was very sweet, but seemed stretched thin--possibly juggling too many tables. Overall, a decent local stop with a solid menu, but be prepared for a more relaxed pace when it comes to service.

The food tasted really good. A family celebrating their son's birthday was seated at the table with us. They were the 2 best behaved kids that I have seen in a long time.
