I booked a seat at the concert of Graham Nash, which I was looking forward to. Alas, I am having foot surgery about 2 weeks before the concert. The Bijou has a ZERO refund policy, I called to find out what I could do. Ticketmaster would not let me sell the ticket online because of this policy. I talked to a sweet young lady who said she would see what she could do. Not an hour later, she called me back with the good news. Because this was not an issue I had any control over, being confined to my home for the recuperating period, they granted me the refund for my ticket! I cannot believe the generosity of this venue. They went above and beyond the capabilities of their policy to grant me the refund. so, THANK YOU BIJOU!

The Bijou Theatre in Knoxville, Tennessee, is one of the oldest and most revered performance venues…read morein East Tennessee. Located at 803 S Gay St, it is celebrated for its superb natural acoustics and intimate atmosphere, with a capacity of approximately 700-757 guests. Originally built in 1909 as an addition to the historic Lamar House Hotel (which dates back to 1817), the theater has hosted legendary performers ranging from the Marx Brothers and Houdini to modern acts like Dolly Parton and the Dave Matthews Band

Our very first attendance at this small venue was great. Not knowing what to expect or where to go,…read morewe were greeted by friendly and helpful staffers. There was a very nice young man (possible UT student) stationed at the underground parking garage who directed us to the entrance to the theater. Upon arrival, we were greeted by personnel at the lobby entrance who directed us towards the ushers, who awaited ticketed patrons at the theater doors. As you enter the actual performance theater, the seating arrangement becomes visually pleasing towards the stage. I found the seating to be quite comfortable and roomy, where people could actually get by, without you having to stand to allow them to past. There's also a concession area for refreshments which is a nice touch, if so desire. This theater brought great pleasure to a wonderful evening.

It wasn't difficult to find, and the addition of an…read moreattendant at the parking garage to direct you to the theater from the garage was a very welcomed touch. It's a great size for a small dramatic performance. There are restrooms on both sides and, like all theaters, a concession stand for drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) and snacks. The automated ticket readers worked perfectly and it was easy to locate our seats. The seats were comfortable and had just the right amount of space between the rows to avoid having to stand every time someone passed by. The set (for Trouble In Mind) was amazingly realistic and helpful to understanding the play. The talent was outstanding too. However, the on-stage talent projects their voices without technical amplification, making it difficult to hear their lines at times. We were engrossed in the acting so much, that the 2-hours seemed to fly by. Afterwards, there was an informal reception in the lobby with food (because it was Opening Night). A very nice touch. Overall, it was a positive experience, and one that we would repeat.

So, at the risk of being repetitive I will tl;dr it for you: you have to decide to go all-in on this experience. We did just that on our rowdy Friday night recently. When in Pigeon Forge--honestly, one of the weirder places in the known universe--you absolutely go all-in and check out a thing called Dolly Parton's stampede. You buy your tickets, you whoop, you holler, you go hands-on into the food. You just go for it. If you do not go for it, it will be one of the weirder things you do. I really liked the food, actually. They served you a cream soup, biscuit, and a whole dang chicken (though it's a little one) alongside pulled pork and some mashed potatoes sans gravy. The show is what really requires the all-in because what did I just watch? The riders are incredibly skilled and the emcee had a great voice (we needed more singing, please, this is a Dolly branded show) but there were some awkward moments like the weird attempts at comedy by the Skeeter character and then the butterfly number which just... didn't land. It's a challenge to eat a hands-on meal while also trying to pay attention to a show, but do your best. But my only real complaint on the whole night really was the service. Those poor servers are actively trying to take away from the experience. It feels like they are being timed and if they don't throw your food down fast enough and in the most unhelpful way possible then they get whipped by a cowboy backstage later. Go. And go all-in. When in Pigeon Forge, be the most Pigeon Forge you can be. And this is the MOST Pigeon Forge Experience we had.

The creamy vegetable soup with the biscuit was FIRE. And I mean that respectfully because I…read moregenuinely cannot stop thinking about this soup. It was incredibly creamy and flavorful, and the biscuit was flaky, buttery, and delicious. Dipping that biscuit into the soup? Absolutely elite. I could've happily eaten a whole bowl of that and called it a day. The chicken was extremely well seasoned and honestly just perfect. The smashed potatoes were pretty good too. We also got the pulled pork, which was delicious, but by the time it made its grand entrance, I was already stuffed. They bring each item out one at a time, so by the time the pulled pork and corn arrived, I had completely forgotten I was supposed to be eating more food. I barely touched the corn because my stomach had officially clocked out. And then there was dessert. Yes, somehow there was STILL dessert. I had to force myself to make room for at least a little because apparently the meal had no intention of ending. I chose the apple pie, while my boyfriend got the chocolate coconut one. I tried his, obviously, and both were equally delicious. At that point, I was eating purely out of obligation and determination. The show itself was so entertaining! There was plenty of action, humor, and some healthy, fun competition. I especially loved how much crowd interaction there was because it made the whole experience feel much more immersive and fun. Overall, the food was delicious, the show was entertaining, and I left completely stuffed. But honestly, I'm STILL thinking about that vegetable soup. Kudos to the chef because that soup really stole the show for me.
