I also like the plain pretzels and Parmesan but the cinnamon, oh my goodness, it is to die for. The prices are low and it's cheaper than getting fast food, great customer service too.

The pretzel was dry, no butter taste, lacked any cinnamon flavor and bad texture. Compared to Auntie Anne's pretzel this place needs to revisit their product.

I was a solitary diner on my birthday and had a hankering for German food. There aren't many…read moreGerman restaurants in my home state so I was surprised that I could find one in Pigeon Forge. I ordered the traditional schnitzel (pork cutlet that was pounded thin). It was not breaded, but it was coated with egg and flour and prepared well. I had the German potato salad and red cabbage side orders. Both were served warm as is custom. I was a bit upset that the waiter gave me the bill when the meal was finished. I told him it was my birthday and that I had wanted coffee and cake. He took the bill and crumpled it in his hand. The portion of cake that he presented could have easily served three! I left the top frosting. The chocolate cake was moist and the frosting between the layers was German chocolate. Available seating offerings were a booth, table, or a table al fresco. It had the beer garden appeal. I opted to sit inside. The restaurant is also very family oriented (as are most things in Pigeon Forge). Prices were reasonable, food was served at the correct temperature, portions were prodigious. The venue was also immaculate. I would recommend this tavern to anyone who appreciates German fare.

Not to mention we are regular guests which severing staff know us. Finally got seated. We had to ask for kids menu which we know were available (We're regulars). The host is not paying attention. I was well aware prices have gone up at least a dollar from the entire menu, and we do enjoy the food, but to set the expectation of "average" menus item being $14, and burgers $14.75-$16.75, you've got to do better. Thankfully the server made the entire experience great. She has served us multiple times and understands our special needs for our son. *We'll definitely be back, but I this industry will not survive "expecting" 20% and doing that to guests. (That servers we had will always get a generous tip from us) ***It's gong to come down to asking to be sat in specific server's section.

We are from out of state and had some free time and the need for food and beer! We both got the…read morechicken tenders and were satisfied with how big they are. If you need more dipping sauce you do have to pay. One of us needed more. Upon entry, you first see the food order counter. So we ordered, they give you a number and then bring it out to you. We opted to sit out in the full glorious sun. You can order a beverage from inside next to the food counter at the full bar, or at the outdoor bar. We chose the outdoor bar. There are bathrooms on the back of that building, so you don't have to trek back in. We were there mid day so nothing much was happening. It was pretty busy. It looks like it would be hopping on a weekend night with the very large stage (can't believe I didn't snap a picture). Anyway, the beer is decent. Had better and had worse.

Doors opened at 10:00am and the line kept going until after 1:00pm. Pay $5/person and receive a wristband for those over 21 years old. Open your tab at the bar either inside or outside. We began with Giddy Up and went to Vols Lagger in a pitcher. When you get hungry, they have those giant pretzels with cheese dip and honey mustard dip. Also, Prince's Hot Chicken is so delicious and served right here on the premises. My spice loving boys both enjoyed their medium chicken tenders while I tried their lite mild tenders. Not much flavor with the lite mild. Next time I'll order their mild. Their fries have a light dusting of seasoning and are a great munchie. Plenty of seating both inside and outside. Side has ceiling fans for comfort and lots of big screen tvs everywhere.

They also have a craft brew selection for your perusal.
