Morning Mist Restaurant and Cafe
601 Glades Rd # 21, Gatlinburg, TN
Crema's Take
“Nestled among charming local shops in Gatlinburg, Morning Mist welcomes you with the kind of genuine warmth that comes from thoughtful homemade cooking—think their celebrated Morning Mist Chicken Sandwich with granny smith apples, gouda, and peach jalapeño jam alongside hearty soups and sandwiches on artisan rolls. The shaded, stream-side setting feels like a peaceful retreat rather than a typical cafe, making it the perfect spot to slow down with family or friends and actually savor your meal. Whether you're stopping by for their traditional coffee drinks or lingering over lunch, this is the kind of place where wandering in with no plans somehow feels exactly right.”

What a lovely surprise! I stumbled upon Morning Mist Café while wandering through a beautiful little area full of charming local shops — no plans, just following good vibes — and I’m so glad I did. The café was super clean, welcoming, and had such a peaceful, cozy atmosphere. The staff were incredibly friendly, and you can really tell they care about the space and their guests. The food was fantastic — fresh, flavorful, and served impressively fast. I especially loved that they had matcha on the menu (major bonus points for that!). It truly felt like a hidden gem, and stepping into this place made my day. The owners/servers were so kind and genuine — you could feel the love in every part of the experience. Highly recommend if you’re in the area and want a peaceful, delicious little treat.
Took the backroads to Gatlinburg and came across the Morning Mist Cafe and decided to try it out. Surrounded by shady trees and a stream, it was the perfect “pit stop” to relax and regroup. Now to the food, wife had a turkey wrap that she loved. I wanted something different and got the potato soup and grilled cheese. OMG I had to save the grilled cheese as my last bite. It was delish!! Neat place !!
We visited the area out of town as a family of 5. We tried out a bunch of appetizers, (fried pickles, mozzarella sticks, potato skins), and they were all delicious. Most of us ordered the club with soup or BLT. I got the club with their loaded potato soup and it was really good. The bread was perfectly toasted and the soup was warm and hearty. The service was great and the atmosphere was homey. Would love to come back here again once I am in town. Thank you!
We ordered through DoorDash since we were playing down the road at the school. Food was delicious and I would highly recommend the k ion rings and Philly cheesesteak!! Steamed broccoli was also very good!!
