Beautiful natural stone everywhere. Note that the website offers photos of each room and you can book the room you prefer. -The staff are wonderful: Brianna the bartender, Kat the "breakfast wizard", and all the front desk and other staff. Personable, always up for good conversation, really committed to excellent service. -Continental breakfast is next-level with treats from Stick Boy bakery. If you're lucky to be there on a day when there are lemon lavender scones - don't miss them. -A parking lot in downtown Boone! With a back door leading to it! -Walking distance to Mast Store, Appalachian Theatre of the High Country, App State campus, school logo shops, restaurants and breweries, and much more. -A rooftop bar with gorgeous views, also excellent just for sitting and sunning anytime. The indoor bar area is beautiful and comfortable as well. We have nothing but good things to say. It's a wonderful hotel and we feel welcomed like family there. HIGHLY recommended!

There wasn't live entertainment, just karaoke, which is offered in many places downtown for no cover. It was also not posted which, from my experience in Atlanta, they always post that there is a cover outside. Just feels scummy. It's a very average bar that offers literally nothing special. There is no great view, the service is the same as any bar, it doesn't even have a nice decor; there is no reason to be charging an entrance fee. Enjoyed the visit but will not return.

First off, this place is way nicer than I deserve to be in. Low lights, super clean, and everybody looks like they have their life together. Meanwhile I'm just there for moral support and food. Olivia was behind the bar absolutely carrying the establishment, making drinks like a professional and not judging me for sitting there alone. She was super attentive, super attractive, the drinks were perfect, and you can tell the staff actually cares about what they're doing. Shout out the host Meisha she is tough also! I ordered food expecting "good for Kingsport," and got "actually really, really good." Everything came out fast, looked fancy, and tasted even better than it looked. No complaints at all. The vibe is perfect whether you're on a date, with friends, or just sitting there solo like me pretending you're important. Super relaxed but still upscale. 10/10 would recommend. Go sit at the bar and tip Olivia so I can have a nice birthday present.

First time there with a coworker. Cute little restaurant in a country club. We went for dinner and…read morethe food was disappointing for a 4 star rated restaurant. The calamari and ceviche for appetizers. My friend had the fettuccine Alfredo and I had the glaze salmon at first. The rice was extremely salty and the glaze on the salmon also made the saltiness pop. So I returned it after one bite and ordered the quesadillas which were much better. My friend's pasta also lacked flavor and was low on salt, complete opposite. She also didn't like the ceviche. Our waiter however was pleasant and accommodating.

I will not ever go to The Corner again. There are tons of places on State Street and the surrounding area that will actually take an order, serve you and want your money. The Corner is not one of them.....go somewhere else. I will.

Coleslaw (good) baked beans good but warm, not hot) green beans (same thing and a baked potato (probably should have been baked for another hour. My friend got 1/2 slab of ribs. These were awful. Tough, stringy and they didn't taste good at all. Emily gave us a $10 credit and the kitchen took them off the menu for the night. One worker commented something to the effect that they weren't their regular ribs. Possible whoever does the food inventory decided to try a cheaper alternative and that was a huge mistake. Not sure I will ever be back...overall, just not that impressed at all.

Hey friends! I went out with some new coworkers to this cool spot downtown…read more This spot is the rose that grew from concrete. Bristol is a rural town but certain areas are becoming more chic, such as this rooftop bar. I ordered a brown sugar old fashioned to start with. It was AMAZING. I would definitely recreate it at home, the flavors balance perfectly. For my entree, I had the chicken sandwich. The batter was perfectly crispy and seasoned well. I like that they use chicken thighs, which are juicy and makes for a delicious sandwich. Fries were okay, I wish they weren't steak fries. +Our server was friendly! She recommended great menu items. +Limited parking +Outdoor seating with a beautiful overlook of the city. Indoor seating as well. +Prices are a little above average. +Restaurant was clean and well stocked. I hope enjoy!

Our drinks were extraordinary. The straws were huge, why? Because there was boba at the bottom of the glass for flavor bursts. It took exactly one hour and fifteen minutes to get our food after we had sat down. I'm sure there were good reasons for this but I don't care. I'm paying premium prices for this food and some effort should be made by management to ensure that the service is without hiccups. The salmon tacos were very good but the salmon was fried. The Shrimp & Grits bites were ok, they tasted nothing at all like shrimp or grits. They may as well have been potato balls. The spicy sauce was excellent. The Summer Melon Salad with burrata sounded pretty odd with the shaved ham, but it turned out to be delicious. The Fried Green Tomato's were excellent. The waitresses were friendly but seemed to be exhausted. Hopefully the overtime was voluntary and worth it.
