The slaw was fantastic and added balance to the Asian pork belly...which, by the way were perfect! Crunchy and fantastic flavor. Our friends ordered chicken nachos. These were also quite fantastic. Excellent queso, the chips were a bit thicker than expected, but still perfect for the huge amount of toppings. The campfire burger was amazing. If I had to pick on one thing, it would have been nice to be able to order medium rare. But, nonetheless, outstanding burger. The perfect amount of char. A well toasted burger n, and the garlic aioli was the perfect complement. As for beverages, the pineapple jalapeños margarita was good, but the red sangria was wonderful. The atmosphere was super relaxed on the patio with some southern rock/ 70's music. Amazing way to spend the afternoon.

We stopped by Bryson City Brewing on the Fourth of July during our 2026 North Carolina road trip,…read moreand it was a fun place to spend part of the evening. The brewery itself has a great setup with both indoor and outdoor seating, a full liquor bar in addition to their beers, and a stage for live music. It's in a perfect downtown location, making it easy to walk around Bryson City and explore everything nearby before or after your visit. We tried the Brussels sprouts appetizer along with a couple of their local beers, and both were really good. The only thing that missed the mark for us was the live band that night. Music is incredibly subjective, and they're probably a great fit for many people, but the style just wasn't what we were expecting. Coming from Tampa, we're spoiled with an amazing local music scene and were hoping for something with a little more variety and crowd interaction. Ironically, the highlight of the performance was an adorable little girl who got up and danced her heart out--she absolutely stole the show with her energy and had everyone smiling! After the fireworks, the brewery was hosting an after-party, which looked like a great way to keep the celebration going. Overall, I wouldn't let one band's performance influence my opinion of Bryson City Brewing. The venue, atmosphere, food, drinks, and location all made for a great experience. If you're visiting Bryson City, I'd absolutely recommend stopping in. Looking forward to seeing a different band the next time I'm in town!

Walked into a local sports bar in western North Carolina and felt like we'd walked into a…read moreJacksonville bar back home. Our hostel host pointed us here, and the second we stepped in, we were greeted by Jaguars jerseys on the wall, Mark Brunell and Jimmy Smith. Then we got seated, and right above our table was Fred Taylor's Florida Gators jersey along with a picture of the Swamp. All three of us at the table were Jacksonville guys, so between the Jags gear and the Gators tie-in, it felt like home before we'd even ordered. We all got the wings, and they were excellent. This place oven roasts them first, then fries to crisp up the skin, no breading involved, and that combination does something special to the flavor. Best wings I've had in a while. One of my buddies also ordered a margarita and said it was excellent. Service was great throughout, and the price landed right in that sweet spot, not cheap, but not expensive for what we got either. Fair value across the board. If you're ever in Franklin and want a spot that feels like home even when you're hundreds of miles from it, this is the place.

Food is pretty good pub fare, a bit of a greasy spoon, but done well. Maybe I was starving but I really enjoyed the burger. The poutine was good, but not the Canadian version I prefer. Unpopular opinion: I wasn't a fan of the *surprise* in the women's restroom. I don't approve of objectifying either gender. I think I ended up in the tamest stall, but overheard what's in the others. As far as I know, there is not a female version of this in the men's restroom. (The man at the table next to us investigated.)

For example, I love the meatball over polenta appetizer but there is such a small amount of polenta. And for the price, it would be nice to be have a little more pasta served with the entrees. I've never gotten a doggie bag here because the portions are small and after spending over $100 for 2, it would be nice to have a little bit of leftovers. That said, food is delicious and obviously all homemade. Cocktail selection is very unique, hip and good. Service is excellent and the servers really know their stuff! Service

Great food, cocktails, and atmosphere!…read more I arrived about 45 minutes before they closed and I asked to sit at the bar. The friendly host took me to a seat and all was going so well. Then I realized the one bartender was clearly focused on the one couple at the bar and was not interested or annoyed and purposely ignoring that I was even there. After 5-10 minutes of waiting, I was happy to let the bartender and couple finish their conversation but then the gentleman of the couple mentioned something to me to acknowledge my presence (something like, are you waiting on him, meaning the bartender) and I nicely said something along the lines of, yes. The bartender was clearly annoyed by that and put his and up and said he would be with me shortly in clearly a dismissive manner and continued the conversation with the couple at the bar. Shortly after he did come over and pour water and take my order which I was well prepared to place. I ordered a glass of Prosecco. I overhear the bartender tell the couple the kitchen would be closing soon if they wanted to place an order. I then see him walk towards me and he asked the same. I knew I wanted the Caesar and placed right away. He pretty much intentionally was dismissive the entire time. Another bartender brought the Caesar and later the other really thoughtful bartender brought a complimentary sample cocktail to try with local lemons. The cocktails and salad were amazing. I'm so proud to have the restaurant scene we do in this community. Too bad I was made to feel like I didn't belong. Still leaving 4 stars in hopes that it was an off night for the one bartender, or maybe I don't belong there.
