Food was good. We ordered a pizza, salad, pulled pork sandwich, and had a gin and tonic. Price was avg. Very friendly staff. Appeared to be an old church chapel converted to a restaurant. Patio dining.

A beautiful place with lots of seating both inside and outside by the river. Enjoyed a pepperoni and mushroom pizza. It was a bit under cooked, though had good flavor. Between being a bit under, and not fully sliced, and served on a paper plate with plastic fork, eating it was a little more challenging than it should have been, but I persevered. Wife had a house salad with chicken salad and really liked it. Great draft beer selection, pleasant place to hang, I can see it as a regular lunch stop.

A hidden restaurant that serves excellent food and good cold draft beer. It's beautiful inside. Service was very fast and food quality was high.

Great place, right on the river. I ordered the special tacos and they were great! My husband got the ribs and he liked them!

I love this little hidden treasure after a hike in the GSMNP. Beer and a steamed sub are a great refreshing treat after several miles.

This place is absolutely delicious! The service was fast and the staff were extremely sweet. We told them it was our first time and they gave us suggestions and were very welcoming. The burger I got is absolutely not like anything I've had before. The tater tots have an amazing crispy outside and the tea is perfect! Highly recommend.

Pet friendly on outside patio by the river. Great view.Order at the bar counter, and food delivered to your table.We all ordered the chicken salad on croissant, served with chips. Piled high on the croissant, you need a fork to pickup dropped pieces. Wonderful place to stop and eat.
