We've been going to the Mountain Goat for years now, and it never disappoints…read more I kinda hate to say that because it will become even more popular, but they deserve a 5-Star review for consistently good food and good service, too. We especially enjoy their pizza because it's consistently good. We went on Saturday and it was packed, so service was a bit slower than normal, but it was worth the wait. Will we go back?? Absolutely we will!! We consider it the best Monteagle has to offer! Sorry, no pictures this time because we were so hungry we ate prior to photos. Use your imagination this time.

Fun fun fun!!!! What a unique and quirky shop! So much to look at! So many pictures and paintings…read more 12:35 on a Tuesday. Party of 4. This place was buzzing with activity. In a very large open room, I was reminded of a high school cafeteria. We were able to get a table right away. Order at the counter and seat yourself. We took turns ordering because our table was the last one and we didn't want to lose it. The meal took only a few minutes to prepare and we were eating by 12:55 The Reuben looked amazing as did the pizza. I was a little jealous. Especially since I ordered the fiesta burrito and found it to be mostly ... just.... okay. I was disappointed that the gift / souvenir shop was closed.

Great little spot for breakfast. The bagel sandwich and a coffee was just perfect…read more I stopped by the evening earlier and they do stop serving food around eight, so don't plan on late-night food.

We tried their muffaletta which is something we really love having visited New Orleans a few times. They did an excellent job replicating it. We also got a side of fried mushrooms and fried pickles which were made nice and piping hot and were crispy and delicious. The food was also reasonably priced. I recommend shenanigans for their fresh excellent food at good affordable prices with a nice relaxing vibe.

Wings were big, well seasoned, and freshly prepared. Housemaid fries were well seasoned. Ask for them crispy. Cheese curds and burger were very good. Southwest eggroll with sweet dipping sauce was just good. Sat and visited with friendly folks on the patio and learned there are certain specials on certain nights.

They had a nice fireplace going on outside due to chilly weather. Inside was a super cozy southern vibe kind of a place. There were a lot of music memorabilia on the walls. The live music was really good. Randy Finchum kicked off the music and played original and sometimes hilarious songs. He made sure to crack a lot of jokes and stories between the songs. For food we tried fried pickles, fried okra, fried brussels sprouts, and sausage with onions and peppers. Yep...no sight of greens but man was everything delicious. Also, they have cheap beers available but only in bottles. If you're in the mood for some good southern food with a cozy funky vibe then checkout Smoke House.

It's the lunch option if you're staying on inn property during the day. So we got to go orders of…read moreburgers and fries. The burgers ('Miss Dessie', their bacon cheese burger) were fine, nothing memorable. They're generous with the sides of fries. The regular fries are thick and wavy, and could have used more crunch. Wife liked the sweet potato waffle fries, so much that he finished them off. Got a vanilla shake, which appeared to be a real ice cream based shake, and was really good. Unfortunately, they didn't have any lids, so it was served in a flimsy plastic lidless cup. Not so great to travel. Note that there does not appear to be any sign for the grill, it's just a counter in the golf shop. So pay attention to your GPS, and be forewarned that the driveway is one way, with the entrance being the first turn off of Greens View Road.

This off the path place sits at the golf course overlooking the driving range. They have a cozy fireplace going and the food was good. I enjoyed the vibe and the people.
